Conflating Jews with Zionism (what people protest against) is not only anti-Semitic even according to IHRA, but is probably what went through the head of the attacker from Manchester as he stabbed Jews to death on Som Kippur. Congratulations Keir Starmer for the dumbest tweet.

look, I'm not saying yes or no to cancelling Lahav Shani. But I'm saying: if one side feels the need to lie - everywhere - about the reasons he got cancelled, then maybe justice is not on that side.

Wer behauptet, das eine kritisieren zu wollen, ohne das andere anzusprechen, hat den Kern der eigenen Kritik nicht verstanden. 3/3

Also müssen die Opfer, um die eigene Trauma zu erinnern, die Denkmechanismen der Täter übernehmen – und sind daher gezwungen, selbst irgendwann zu solchen zu werden. Deshalb ist die Kritik an der Erinnerungskultur in Deutschland und anderswo in Europa zutiefst mit Israel und Palästina verbunden. 2/

Eine Erinnerungskultur, die nur nationalistische Mythen und Tendenzen stärkt, musste die Opfer zwangsläufig zu Tätern machen. Was sonst? Die Opfer wollen verzweifelt erinnern, doch der Akt des Erinnerns wird von den Tätern umgeformt und neu definiert. 1/

Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Axel Springer, will receive the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honor from Isaac Herzog.

Is it for the fake news he distributed via BILD?

When the police do not have to answer to anyone, while others are arrested and beaten for demanding equal rights, it is as capitalist as it is fascist. Neither of these ideologies makes universal human rights more possible than the other. 2/2

Fascism distributes rights the way capitalism distributes wealth: some enjoy lawlessness, while for others even breathing is not lawful. This is why the two go so well hand in hand. It is about inequality. 1/2

israel has reportedly killed the Houthi Prime Minister in Sana'a. They are changing the rules of what one is allowed and what not in wars, and not for the first time. This is a very dark era they are pushing us into.

a system that paralyzes Western leaders, prevents them from opposing their business partner Israel, and allows AP to reduce the murder of one of their employees to nothing more than one less, not worth mentioning name on the payroll. 3/3

Gaza is not only where Western nationalism is revealed in all its brutality, but also where Western capitalism is laid bare: 2/3

They can’t even say her name because she is expendable to them. It’s another overlap of the racist approach to Palestinians—seeing them as less than human, as tools to be replaced once broken—and of a capitalist mindset that treats every worker as disposable. 1/3

die Deutsch-Israelische Gesellschaft behauptet im Radio, der Hungersnot in Gaza ist Schuld der Hamas. Die israelische Botschaft dagegen, behauptet auf ihrem ig Kanal, es gibt gar keinen Hungersnot. Which is it then?

Ernsthaft? Ein Film, der Witze darüber macht, dass wir wegen all der Wokeness keine Witze mehr über Menschen machen dürfen, die ethnisch gesäubert und einem Völkermord ausgesetzt wurden – während Deutschland aktiv ethnische Säuberung und Völkermord finanziert, unterstützt und bewaffnet? Ha ha.

"it's a good idea for election campaigns", hinting that the only reason to take in children wounded with full support of Germany, can only be a cynical political stunt and not genuine the humane thing to do. how are we living in this hateful disgusting country. 3/3

while being the second biggest weapon exporter of the weapons that kill, injure and torture them, the German government refuses to take responsibility and host injured palestinian children for treatment in a few german cities who expressed an interest to do so. 1/

There isn’t a single thing Netanyahu is doing now that people hadn’t been shouting and warning about — only to be dismissed by Germany as “radical” and “anti-Semitic.” Not. A. Single. Decision.
