Read this. Israeli forces assassinated a 14 year old boy, shooting him 5 times in the legs, back, and neck. He was on the way home from his grandparents when he hid in a parking garage, screaming “don’t shoot me.” Israel justifies this by saying someone threw a Molotov cocktail.

Imagine if Canada criminalized the commemoration of victims of residential schools? In 2011, Israel adopted a law that allows the Finance Minister to defund organizations that commemorate the Nakba (when 700,000+ Indigenous Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their homes)
On Canada's first
#NationalDayforTruthandReconciliation

I keep thinking about how grim this is. CIJA doesn’t hold Israel responsible for anyone they kill, which means there is no red line to what they’d support. And their talk about “no half measures” — after the slaughter of 5,000 children — is completely bone-chilling. Really sick

The press will run with any false story that slanders Palestinians as antisemitic, even going so far as to cast armed fascists as victims of hate crimes. The industry has a lot of internalized anti-Palestinian racism it needs to deal with.
