I hate apartheid and genocide, which is why I say “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” so I guess in a way it is technically hate speech.
In the resolution for this (H. Res. 883), they repeat the “Hamas beheaded babies” and “Hamas stored weapons and intelligence in Al-Shifa hospital” lies. They don’t care that nobody believes this nonsense anymore, just keep repeating it.
Barak, who was Israel's prime minister from 1999 to 2001, responded, "decades ago, we were running the place, so we helped them." The Gaza Strip has been controlled by Hamas since 2007.
"It was many decades ago...that we helped them build these bunkers in order to enable more space for the operation of the hospital within the very limited size of these compounds."
Following a pause, Amanpour seemed surprised and struggled to find her next words. "That's sort of thrown me a little bit."
One of the govt.’s justifications for classifying “from the river to the sea” as hate speech is that "this slogan is used by the same people who utter 'death to America' and 'death to Israel'."
even though we are seeing a little lip service about ceasefires and warnings of future fingerwagging at the leadership of the settler-colonial client state, the heavy handed & public nature of the crackdowns on protests in communities and individuals across the professional world--especially within The Academy and in the corporate media sphere--has lead me to believe we have not yet seen how far the US or it's vassal states are prepared to go in facilitating palestinian genocide and the repression on domestic resistance movements (boycotts, protests), including the communication and organization of either.
i am deeply disturbed by the Apocalyptic Christian-Zionist + Liberal coalition that seems to be hegemonic among every institution.
Go with from a large mobile natural stream body of water with defined banks to a large body of salty water, I've even gotten away with some variant of that on . Language is too fluid and adaptive for such simple measures.
