Western countries do not support Israel because they love the Jewish people or because they feel bad about the Holocaust, they support Israel because they have political and economic interest in supporting this particular power in this particular region at this particular time

What to boycott NOW to help stop Israel’s unfolding genocide of Palestinians in Gaza

What to boycott NOW to help stop Israel’s unfolding genocide of Palestinians in Gaza

We call on our supporters to strengthen our targeted boycott and divestment campaigns to maximize our impact!

Reminder that boycotting DOES work, there is historic proof! Don't let anyone discourage you otherwise!

The BDS movement uses the historically successful method of targeted boycotts inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, the US Civil Rights movement, the Indian anti-colonial struggle, among others worldwide.

We must strategically focus on a relatively smaller number of carefully selected companies and products for maximum impact. Companies that play a clear and direct role in Israel’s crimes and where there is real potential for winning, as was the case with, among others, G4S, Veolia, Orange, Ben & Jerry’s and Pillsbury. Compelling such huge, complicit companies, through strategic and context-sensitive boycott and divestment campaigns, to end their complicity in Israeli apartheid and war crimes against Palestinians sends a very powerful message to hundreds of other complicit companies that “your time will come, so get out before it’s too late!”

Please reblog! Spread this! There is an effort by zionists to discourage people from boycotting! Don't let them trample your spirits and help us in the fight for a liberated Palestine!

Daily reminder not to host your website on Wix.com, they're a tel aviv based company that proudly admits to having many of their staffers enlisted in the IOF

Hey, deviantart is owned by wix so don't use deviantart either.

[blackpearlblast]

if you deactivate your deviantart account it gives you some options of why and if you select "other" it gives you a little field you can write in. i wrote that i was opposed to the genocide their parent company is supporting and deactivated my account. if you have an unused or currently in use deviantart account i would suggest doing this too.

IDK if this works with the current incarnation of dA and i haven't tested it myself but this article discusses and links to an open source program that can mass download a user's favorites/galleries/etc. so it might be worth a try if you want to back things up before deactivating. some people in the reviews mentioned it only grabbing the thumbnails and messing up gifs but i'm not sure if that is still a present issue since those complaints are from ten years ago LOL.

A father from Gaza narrates the painful story of how he lost his wife and son as young as 13.

A glimpse of the life they could have had if it weren’t for Israel…

[amaribelt]

everyone in Palestinian had a life they all had people who cared about them who loved them dreams goals and ambitions, dying in a ruthless genocide wasn't one of them. if you can watch this with no sympathy no hurt for the family for the people of Palestinian you disgust me and you are no longer human. it was never suppost to happen again.

zionists love to say 'but israelis are indigenous to the area too!!' as if that means anything.

hypothetical: let us say you live in ancient mexico, 15th century, in a nice sized village a few days walk away from Tenochtitlan. one day the aztecs come and raze your village to the ground, kill the men, rape the women, and kidnap the children. it is documented historically and forensically that the aztec empire slaughtered innocent people in the thousands every year and destroyed hundreds of neighboring villages to expand their claim to the land. the other villages fought back, sometimes even attacked preemptively, and were killed or enslaved for it. but the aztec are indigenous too, so it's okay, right? it's a complicated history, but aztecs live there too so that justifies over thousands of innocents murdered over decades of violent expansion, right?

it's still genocide even when the person doing the genociding is also indigenous. no human with an ounce of kindness and decency gives a fucking shit 'which group was there first' when one group inflicts all of the above on another. columbus would still be a genocidal maniac if he did all that shit to portugal instead.

Hope people use this time to check themselves on their internalized Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism— especially if you’re American or European. It is not “normal” for the Middle East to be “constantly at war”. Muslims are not more inclined to violence and “barbarism”.

The state of the region is the product of decades of colonialism, exploitation, and racism in play. The word “Middle East” itself stems from those very same things.

Almost as if those "resolutions" only exist as a tool to justify imperialism
