Statement | Jewish Voice for Peace Opposes Trump’s Plan to Silence and Deport Anti-War Students - #JVP (2025-01-29)

https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/2025/01/29/jewish-voice-for-peace-opposes-trumps-plan-to-silence-and-deport-anti-war-students/
——

“Donald Trump is reportedly planning to continue his violent crusade aimed at gutting freedom and democracy with an Executive Order today calling for the deportation of non-citizen anti-war activists, with a particular focus on students. This is a vile attempt to sow fear and crush political dissent to the U.S.-backed Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, as well as to further the far-Right’s broader anti-immigrant agenda. Should there be any attempt to enforce this authoritarian, unconstitutional, and violent executive order, we call on elected officials, university administrators, and all people of conscience to boldly reject these orders…”

Seems like the filmmakers are now organising several independent screenings through USA. (Or better, urged to do so.)

Genocide as colonial erasure - Report of Francesca Albanese, the #UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967 - Question of Palestine (2024-10-01)

https://www.un.org/unispal/document/genocide-as-colonial-erasure-report-francesca-albanese-01oct24/
———

“In the present [October 2024] report, the Special Rapporteur expands the analysis of the post-7 October 2023 violence against Gaza, which has spread to the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. She focuses on genocidal intent, contextualising the situation within a decades-long process of territorial expansion and ethnic cleansing aimed at liquidating the Palestinian presence in Palestine. She suggests that genocide should be seen as integral and instrumental to the aim of full Israeli colonization of Palestinian land while removing as many Palestinians as possible…”

“Israel’s defense minister says troops will remain in Jenin refugee camp indefinitely”

“Barely 48 hours after the ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza came into effect on January 19, Israel announced “Operation Iron Wall,” a large-scale military operation to ‘defeat terrorism in Jenin.’

“What began in the #Jenin refugee camp has expanded to #Tulkarem, #Tubas, #Qalqilya, #Nablus, and #Jericho…”

“A day before the latest Israeli invasion, Palestinian Authority security forces had concluded their own large-scale offensive on the camp dubbed Operation Home, one of the longest and most lethal assaults by Palestinian security forces in recent memory…”

“Our work is not over. Gazans are returning to a devastated land. Entire neighborhoods are rubble on rubble. Local cell towers will take months to repair, meaning people will continue to rely on eSIMs for wifi and service…”

“The genocide in Gaza is far from over, it has – as Bisan Owda and many others point out – simply slowed down. Until the local Internet infrastructure is safely restored, we will keep our eSIMs active and send new ones when we have the funds to do so.

“As Palestinian writer Jehad Abusalim observes, ‘The real fight…doesn’t end with a ceasefire.’ It will take years to rebuild Gaza. Now is not the time to abandon the struggle or waver in our solidarity.”

Israel's Bombs May Have Stopped, But the Genocide Is Not Over (Zeteo, 2025-01-30)

“Yes, Israel’s bombs have stopped, but the genocide is not over. With a destroyed and collapsed healthcare system, we will continue to see more Palestinians die, as they are unable to get the treatment necessary to be able to survive the devastation that Israel (with no US bombs and help, of course) meted out against them.”

“… Israeli leaders made it clear throughout their bombing campaign that they intended to make Gaza unlivable…”

“… a growing number of Israeli soldiers speaking out against the 15-month conflict and refusing to serve anymore, saying they saw or did things that crossed ethical lines. While the movement is small — some 200 soldiers signed a letter saying they’d stop fighting if the government didn't secure a ceasefire — soldiers say it’s the tip of the iceberg and they want others to come forward.”

“Seven soldiers who've refused to continue fighting in Gaza spoke with AP, describing how Palestinians were indiscriminately killed and houses destroyed…”

In the West Bank, Palestinian unemployment is now Israeli policy (+972 Magazine, 2025-01-21)

https://www.972mag.com/west-bank-unemployment-permits-israel/
———

“Ever since the beginning of Israel’s assault on Gaza in October 2023, Palestinians in the occupied West Bank have been suffering from an acute unemployment crisis. In the first six months of the war, the unemployment rate nearly tripled, with over 300,000 workers losing their main source of income.”

“Historically, our community subsisted on shepherding and agricultural farming. But over the years, the expansion of the Jewish settlement … and violence from Israeli settlers and soldiers have rendered the vast majority of our land inaccessible. Forced to find alternative sources of income, many young men in the community began working as laborers inside Israel…”

Craig Mokhiber on X ... #ArrestHerzog
https://x.com/CraigMokhiber/status/1883925720868761701

"Today the UN has shamed itself, violated its human rights mission, & dishonored the memory of millions of victims of the Holocaust. In an event that was supposed to commemorate the genocide of European Jews & the principle of “never again”, it honored & platformed a perpetrator of genocide, Isaac Herzog, president of the Israeli regime, & allowed him, unchallenged, to spout lies, racism and genocide propaganda, (as well as propaganda for war with Iran). If the UN does not get up from its knees, speak truth to power, and challenge the genocidal apartheid regime, its sponsors & proxies, & hold them to account for their serial criminality, it will almost certainly go the way of the League of Nations. Never again means never again for anyone. #ArrestHerzog"

A Textbook Case of Genocide: Israel has been explicit about what it’s carrying out in Gaza. Why isn’t the world listening? (Raz Segal | Jewish Currents, 2023-10-13)

https://jewishcurrents.org/a-textbook-case-of-genocide
------
Note this analysis was issued on Oct 13th of 2023 . Respect.

"Israel’s campaign to displace Gazans—and potentially expel them altogether into Egypt—is yet another chapter in the Nakba,... But the assault on Gaza can also be understood in other terms: as a textbook case of genocide unfolding in front of our eyes. I say this as a scholar of genocide, who has spent many years writing about Israeli mass violence against Palestinians..."

"Indeed, Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza is quite explicit, open, and unashamed... And those of us watching around the world are derelict in our responsibility to prevent them from doing so."

According to https://journa.host/@w7voa/113833951170679183 f., Pr. Biden himself admits that both -present and incoming- admin people played certain roles.

"For the past few days we have been speaking as one team … I told my team to coordinate closely with the incoming team so that we're all speaking with the same voice."

Joyce Ajlouny, General Secretary of the AFSC interviewed by Nima Shirazi & Adam Johnson, audio with transcript. Worth a look. (h/t @gnuhaut)

(Ajlouny) “AFSC has been working in Gaza since 1947... We have staff there. We continue to be providing humanitarian aid. Our staff are… the aid workers who have been displaced and with their families killed and trying to fend for their families... #AFSC is speaking from their voices, from what they tell us every day...”

(Johnson) “[in NYT and WaPo] … you have this kind of institutionalized refusal to connect the dots, that genocidal statements are never put in articles about genocidal acts. The genocidal acts are seen as kind of incidental or bad apples. But there’s never a sense of connecting any dots, which, again, is not something done for Russia or for other countries.”

Israel confirms it is holding Gaza hospital chief Abu Safiya (BBC, 2025-01-03)

https://bbc.com/news/articles/cj30deeggd7o
———

“Israel has confirmed it is holding Gaza hospital director Dr Hussam Abu Safiya after earlier telling a local NGO that it was unaware of his case, sparking concern for his well being.”

“The statement did not offer an explanation for the confusion but repeated that he was suspected of being a ‘terrorist’ and for ‘holding a rank’ in Hamas…”

“On Thursday the IDF told Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI) that it had ‘no indication of the arrest or detention of the individual in question’"

“Meanwhile Amnesty head Agnès Callamard said Israeli authorities must ‘urgently disclose his whereabouts’".

“The right-of-center Polish daily #Rzeczpospolita (circulation of 274,000), on Friday reported … that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not attend events in #Poland marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz camp, for fear of being arrested in accordance with the order issued by the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

“The newspaper quoted Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Władysław Bartoszewski, who is responsible for coordinating the ceremony on January 27 with the participation of several dozen world leaders, who stated, ‘We are obliged to respect the decisions of the International Criminal Court (#ICC) in The Hague.’”
