If the Palestinians who are under constant bombardment, genocide, aid blockade, facing starvation, stuck in a concentration camp, losing loved ones left and right and more haven't given up and refuse to give up then nobody else has the "right" to. It's a human duty to stand up against shit like this and at the very least, if the world and the most privileged masses such as westerners don't then it's what I see as my duty as a colonized person, a communist, a human and for those that claim religious should be a religious one as well. Things are bleak but it's not over. Nothing can bring back the ones lost but there's countless still here but the fact pissrael still hasn't managed to eliminate Hamas like they said they would or break the spirit of the Palestinian people then it shows it won't end until the occupation does. The Gaza genocide bears a lot of similarities to the Namibian genocide perpetrated by the germans in the early 20th century and I reccomend people who haven't heard of it to do their research on it. Bleak situation, a huge part of the population exterminated and yet still emerged victorious. Not to mention this recent escalation has deepend and worsened a lot of decades old divides in pissraeli society, such as the ruling and privileged ashkenazi jews vs every other jew like the mizrahi and sephardic who are usually cast aside, the orthodox who oppose the war vs the secular or less devout that support it, the jewish settlers vs other non-jewish settlers or people who reside in occupied Palestine such as "israeli" arabs. It's not imprudent to say this could easily lead to a civil war that has been in the making since the inception of the illegitimate terrorist state which will further cripple it in every way, joining that with a crippling economic crisis and record numbers of "israelis" leaving in droves, all of this could very well spell the eventual end of what we know as "israel", the regime has been showing obvious signs of "dying empire syndrome" that get worse as time goes on. No matter what they do, you can't mantain a society like that, it will implode, it's a matter of when which I cannot say accurately but it will come to a point, especially if a civil war breaks out which I believe it will that mantaining it will no longer be seen as a net positive for both the US and the EU.

Also, remember that even though the present moment feels eternal, history is even longer. Palestinians certainly do.

As an old head, I can assure you that Apartheid and South Africa were presented in the west like they were the lynchpin to maintaining "civilization" until one day it wasn't. That time will come for the zionist project as well and Israel will be remembered as a militarized boondoggle colony, a tumor from the old century that was finally removed in the new.

No discourse on this account so I only post pictures.

Like are we really just gonna let them all die huh?

Not We

They.

Dont let the Elite sully you with their guilt. Dont fall for the "Our Guilt" - Psy Op , you have no power - what you can do you probably did.

"We" the powerless - do not let them die , we are powerless to stop our Elite.

Don't get me wrong, there's plenty that unrelentingly bleak but personally:

• Palestinians are still fighting and continuing the struggle.
• Good old fashioned solidarity from organising and protest
• Seeing even the small wins from providing support and effort like messages from people who managed to leave, get medical care, or purchase small solar panels etc (admittedly this is getting harder and less frequent)
• Seeing the tides turn in attitude to the conflict here in the UK and elsewhere...
• Even just in terms of ordinary, not overly political people I meet in the street/at the football/in the pub etc there's been a noticable move into the majority of people I talk to not only not buying Israel's bullshit, but also actual loathing for Israel and its obnoxious supporters in the media.
• Over the last week the vast majority of the newspapers here in the UK have suddenly noticed that Israel is full of shit and are now trying to put some distance between themselves and Israel, taking a more critical tack, and actually talking about Israel's plans with regard to concepts like ethnic cleansing. Don't get me wrong, it's entirely serve-serving and I absolutely do not have to give it to them after they cheerled a genocide for almost two years. But whether it's the talk of America backing off from the same level of Israel support, the fact that the British government actively broke even it's own pathetic arms license removal and is currently in court over breaking arms embargos, or just that they were happy to support the ruse of the 'war' but now Israel is moving into the 'final solution' stage they've got cold feet - the fact is there is less support for Israel here than any time over the last few years.
• That even though governments like here in the UK and Germany haven't relented on their support of Israel and their crackdown on its enemies and critics, continuing to do so is creating more and more unrest and unpopularity. There's absolutely a lot of controdictions heightening. Here in the UK too, more insidious details are getting leaked to the public too like the fact that our government and judiciary has been collaborating and communicating details of cases with Israel, perverting the course of justice and opening them up to counter-suits, mistrials etc whilst also undermining the government's law and order narrative regarding crushing political dissent.
• Israel's increasingly expansionist military moves in the region remind me of Aparthied South Africa's desperate attempt to defeat opposition from within by trying to disrupt, overthrow, and control its neighbours. A strategy that only has any hope of working so long as they have the unlimited backing of the US and other highly militarised states. Admittedly, Israel seems to be doing better at it than Aparthied South Africa did, but that kind of regional dependency for domestic stability is always going to be fragile at best and gets harder the more of a pariah state they become. On that point, here's a leaflet about opposing Aparthied South Africa's desperate expansionist wars from the time

Rip USSR

Vietnam is smaller so I can give them a pass, but China is clearly capable of destroying the Israeli economy.

What keeps y'all going wrt Palestine?

At this point, both Shit/Pissreal and the Burger Reich are exhibiting every single symptom that I know of of a dying empire grasping at straws. My hope is that Israel's settler colonial project unravels and possibly descends into civil war, with a Western bloc increasingly unable or unwilling to prop it up.

Ultimately and most importantly, though, if the Palestinians haven't given up yet then I sure as hell am not going to give up on them. Keep showing up to your weekly demos as best you can & donate where you can.

If I must die, you must live to tell my story to sell my things to buy a piece of cloth and some strings...

Just watched The Settlers documentary and hearing those ppl's ideology peppered with biblical prophecy was disturbing. A truly disgusting movement that needs to be stopped.

Nothing other than the small bits of evidence popping up every now and then showing that the Israelis are at least not literally immortal.

Otherwise I kind of just want to never wake up.

Also I just can't understand why Israel is so fucking important to damn near every country on Earth that they're looking past an actual fucking genocide going on. Why does everyone seem to love Israel so fucking much? Fucking shithole world and a shithole planet. Game was rigged from the start.

Spite, mainly. And agreed, it's been annoying at times to see some people here make excuses for China, in particular, with regards to trading with Israel.
