Since October 7th, I've joined protests, fundraising events for Gaza, and students on university campuses.
As a Jew and someone who has a ton of friends and family in Israel, I want to share some thoughts on claims of antisemitism in student encampments and the broader Palestinian solidarity movement:

I genuinely don't have to wait for a Trump presidency for the ruination of the "rules-based order". Biden is doing fine in his own.

Watch the others in the room. The assholes who jeer and manhandle the protestors. These are your peers in the tech industry. These are the “acceptable folks” in tech. Fuck these people.
Look at their faces. They know exactly what they’re complict in. Look at their smug smiles. Dickheads each one.

Dear mastodon.social, why are you hiding/limiting @LALegault’s account?
Is it policy on mastodon.social to hide/limit pro-Palestinian / anti-genocide accounts?
(Someone there wanna check my account also, just in case?)

Oh rascal children of Gaza,
You who constantly disturbed me with your screams under my window,
You who filled every morning with rush and chaos,
You who broke my vase and stole the lonely flower on my balcony,
Come back –
And scream as you want,
And break all the vases,
Steal all the flowers,
Come back,
Just come back…

Oh Rascal Children Of Gaza – a poem
Khaled Juma’s poem “Oh Rascal Children Of Gaza” was written during the Israeli bombardment of Gaza in Operation Protective Edge…Jewish Voice for Labour
It's kinda weird seeing people saying "Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 to give peace a chance".
This is Dov Weisglass, senior adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, in an interview to Haaretz in 2004. Weisglass was one of the initiators of the disengagement plan.
"The significance of the disengagement plan is the freezing of the peace process."
I recently wrote about why progressive Zionists wanting peace was never going to be enough to end the conflict because they systematically fail to center justice: https://social.coop/@raph/111523991092885411
Here, I dive into why that is. It is connected to why so many Jews continue to embrace Zionism (as I used to).
I see five reasons explaining why for so long I focused on peace rather than justice, and why so many of the people I know in Israel & Jewish communities around the world do.

An artistic protest action in Jerusalem marking 100 days since the hostages were taken captive. The message was “Stop everything. Bring them all back”.
We walked down the street with “100 days” signs taped to our clothes and at a given moment everyone froze in place. After 15 minutes we started chanting “Now. Now. Now…” (meaning “bring them home now” or “deal now”) for several minutes. We repeated these steps twice.

This seems to be working even up to an hour ago: you can help Gazans get/stay connected by buying e-sims. One effort is by Mirna El Hebawi and you can send the purchased QR activation code to Gazaesims@gmail.com. I've seen people purchasing Airalo as well in addition to the ones mentioned here.
Another one is crowdfunding costs to buy e-sims: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=HTJJJBGXT9L8W

Hint: if you don’t like my comparing Israel to Russia, go tell Israel to stop acting like Russia.
(And find out how the fediverse works before you go making an arse of yourself trying to censor me on my own personal instance.)
