Uplifting in the most dystopian ways.

Can someone remind me, what is the bullshit reason they ban the Palestinian people from fishing in their own waters again?

[-] redchert@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 2 days ago

Gaza is an open air concentration camp. And under siege of 20+ years, illegally by the very same international laws the west cares so much about when it comes to Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, China, and Russia.

Israel is a settler colonial power who don't want any Palestinian in Palestine

They are also the more antisemitic than actual neoNazi’s at the moment. (Palestinians are a Semitic people.)

They can get food from the fish

[-] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml 17 points 3 days ago

Engineered starvation. They can't win an actual fight so they can only kill them like this.

Hamas is hiding in fishing rods.

[-] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 13 points 3 days ago

Good question. Are they even trying to justify what they’re doing anymore?

Technically True. The IOF will blow them up if they try to feed themselves by fishing.

WE'RE PROTECTING YOU FROM US!

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 13 points 3 days ago

yes, that's literally the reasoning.

Palestinians need to take one out of the Zionist playbook and start hunting down and executing supporters of Israel around the world.

It's the only way for them to fight back and the Zionists brought this on themselves.

[-] MarxOverflow@lemmygrad.ml 23 points 3 days ago

That would indicate that the flotilla was effective at helping them access food.

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 days ago

it was, indirectly.

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

I hope this story is true, but I haven't found a news article that verifies this yet.

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

i'll be surprised if you can find any at all considering the media blackout of this topic. the only way you're going to know is through your personal relationships w the people in gaza like this woman in the video has through her extended family.

i can't imagine what it's like trying to convince the world to give a rat's ass about your cousins, aunts & uncles slowly being starved & bombed to death and a huge majority of the world intentionally choosing to ignore it.

Upvoting to show the world that activism works

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 hours ago

i've never seen anyone so happy about minnows. lol

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

There are Palestinian journalists reporting from Gaza. And I do check in with news orgs that use their reporting, and independent reporting.

I sincerely hope these tiktok videos are true. But outside of tiktok, instagram, facebook, reddit posting the same video, I have not seen a Palestinian journalist report on this.

I'm not trying to put you down, but I'm skeptical to accept videos at face value because it's easy for people on social media to create false narratives and upload them for content. I'm just hoping for a journalist to verify this story.

It’s also the weekend and shows like democracy now and tyt don’t do weekend news shows

[-] redchert@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 days ago

choosing to ignore it.

Or celebrate it and demand for you to shut up and vooote for the party that did enable it. I have not forgotten all the whining about "dearborn".

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 21 minutes ago

that's sadly funny on multiples levels and also because that's where this woman lives and creates her videos.
