I'm walking home in London, get off at Chalk Farm, and see a woman tearing down posters.
"I'm doing this to clean the street. Clean the shit."
Then, when I put my phone down, she turned to me and said: "Ah, look at your nose. I see your nose."
I cried the rest of the way home.
Happening right now in Bat Yam, the town I live in. This is the Victory ice cream shop, owned by Arabs. Being torn to pieces by Jews. I bring my daughters here for ice cream often, it's delicious.
But taste doesn't matter to Jewish supremacists.
The life of my family and mine is in danger tonight, my girls are scared shitless in the shelter and crying as the sirens wail, I am so enraged at everything and everyone, and yet I know that no one will ever know peace here without an end to Israeli apartheid.

By using Maher's logic, Jews should have "just moved on" instead of pining to return to the Holy Land for 2,000 years. As he said, things change.
יובל נח הררי היום ל-CNN:
"רבים בציבור בישראל עברו מאמונה בפתרון שתי מדינות לאמונה, בעקיפין לפחות, בפתרון 'שלושת המעמדות', לפיה יש מדינה אחת בין הים לירדן ובה שלושה מעמדות: יהודים עם כל הזכויות; חלק מהערבים עם חלק מהזכויות; וערבים אחרים עם מעט זכויות או כלום."

Report: The deputy mayor of mixed Arab-Jewish city of Lod (Lyd) claims that hundreds of armed settlers from the West Bank are on their way to the city and warns: "I suggest to every Arab resident not to leave their homes."
This has potential to be a bloodbath.

Stop calling it the Israeli Palestinian conflict. There's no conflict. There is an oppressor and an oppressed.
And stop saying it's complicated, or nuanced. There's nothing complicated or nuanced about apartheid. There wasn't in South Africa, and not here.
.
It's not a choice between being pro-Israel or anti-Israel, it's just choosing between supporting apartheid or not.
It's pretty easy to choose. Do it

רינה מצליח, אני מצטער, אבל לשאול ראש מפלגה (במקרה הזה בנט) "עם מי היית רוצה לשתות קפה, ביבי או סער?" זה לא עיתונות, זה פשוט מביך.
זה לא שאני מופתע, כן? אבל התקשורת הישראלית בכל מערכת בחירות פשוט מטריפה אותי בקטע הזה, הכל זה מירוץ מנדטים ומי מוכן לשבת עם מי, בלי שום דיון על אג'נדה

That's their game plan - tire out Palestinians, believing they will eventually give up/leave to Jordan or whatever. But they're mistaken, people don't give up and no one is going anywhere.
Remember how in the70s, 80s and 90s Israelis would get really pissed off when others used the word "occupation", but now most everyone say it? So "apartheid" today.
Dreading the thought of once again having to see my children shiver in fear in the shelter tonight.
Can't even begin to think what a Gazan father feels when he hears the fighter jets coming, and the massive U.S. manufactured bombs begin to drop.
So listen, here’s something a bit personal.
A few days ago I posted on Facebook, in Hebrew, a message after
@Haaretz
published its expose on i24NEWS. I got some pretty uncomfortable backlash afterwards that made me think twice before writing this now, in English. \1

First, what does Haaretz have to do with my tweet?
Second, my country is not at war, it is fighting for its apartheid regime.
Is that clear for you, dear hasbara troll?
Oh, and call me enemy from within one more time and you're blocked. Classic fascism calling me a traitor.
This Hanukkiah has a story. It belonged to my grandfather's family, who lived on a farm outside of Bratislava. Before the Nazis came, they buried it in their backyard. After the war, Poppy, who escaped before, came back from the US and dug it out.
And then former colleague continues to slander me on twitter.
Actually, my post was: "End Israeli apartheid."
So, Levy is actually lying. He calls himself a journalist.
Such weak personality, honestly. To attack a former colleague because theu doesn't agree with their opinions.
The chaos we witness between the River and the Sea is the result of a perfect storm: an apartheid regime meets a corrupt leader willing to do anything to stay in power.
Hebrew media reporting Israel may try to take out Mohammed Def.
Yeah, sure, that'll solve everything. Targeted assassinations always bring peace to the region, there's a great track record.

Also, I’m Israeli, Jewish, a father and a Jerusalemite who serves in the IDF reserves, would rather not have to fight and believes we can create a bette future for all the children here.
But for that to happen, the Palestinians need to love their children more than they hate us.

means for me. Co-founding it was not only the best decision I ever made in my journalism career, but believe it or not - it had some repercussions. And that’s important for me to say. Especially these days. And I’ll explain.
Israeli soldiers write the names of a soldier and child who were killed in rocket fire on the mortars they will launch into Gaza. Worth mentioning that at least 20 children have died in Gaza, some from weapons like this.

Just like Israel back then, murder is defined by who you vote for.

Apartheid comes in many shapes and shades. Just because there aren't any Whites Only benches doesn't mean there isn't a system of ethnic supremacy between the river and the sea. But comfy for you to ignore that, of course.

That's right, I'm joining the club! I'm starting my own podcast on Substack, it's called "Otherwise Occupied".
I love how the Republican governor blames the virus for taking a "dangerous turn" and not, for example, himself and his orange racist leader for pushing to recklessly re-open his state.
