"It may seem like life goes on, as does the war on Gaza. It may seem like a defeat has come to pass, with Israel and its allies staring down the public and the entire global order to force through the war. And Donald Trump’s presidency has flooded the zone with multiple shocks, from the economic to the political. But it is a restive, turbulent status quo, because what is happening to many is simply unbearable, and if protest and testimony and confrontation might save even one life or bring forward the end of the war by even one minute, it will continue.

Every corpse, every city pulverised into rubble, every bloodied child exists not in a hopeless land far away, but within people’s human hinterland. Because it is impossible for a world to be shown the daily ravaging of a people and become intimidated or exhausted into habituation. Some may choose to ignore it, or justify it, or even support it, but they can never normalise it."

Nouveau massacre de journalistes: 210 journalistes tué·es depuis octobre : record macabre en Palestine occupée

#Israël #Palestine #Journaliste

Israël a une nouvelle fois frappé la liberté d'informer en bombardant délibérément une tente de journalistes près de l'hôpital Nasser, à Gaza. Helmi Al-Faqawi et Yousef Al-Khazindar ont été tués, plusieurs autres grièvement blessés, dont Ahmed Mansour, capturé en flammes sur une vidéo insoutenable.
Depuis octobre 2023, ce sont plus de 210...

The real housewives of hasbara: When the Gaza war is good for business

lemmy.ml/post/28237967

lemmy.mlThe real housewives of hasbara: When the Gaza war is good for business - LemmyLizzy went back to posting videos of her family that celebrated Judaism and Israel. But after the October 7 attack, she pivoted to what can only be described as full-blown hasbara – a Hebrew term that can be understood as public diplomacy or propaganda, depending on one’s perspective. Like hasbara itself, Savetsky is a polarizing figure. Her fans hail her as a “Jewish lioness” and a “modern-day Queen Esther,” as one website recently enthused. But she also has a dedicated contingent of detractors who accuse her of distorting facts, defending Israeli military actions that some classify as war crimes and even leveraging her children to elicit emotional reactions. [https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/581fd169-ffbc-4ab6-b167-ed93ce1cdfdb.png] Their messaging is strikingly uniform, falling into three primary categories: unwavering support for Israel in its war against Hamas; urgent calls to bring the hostages home; and a relentless focus on global antisemitism, which they frame as a pervasive and existential threat. Their posts often distill incredibly complicated issues into stark battles of good versus evil: an approach that plays well on social media but leaves little room for nuance in the real world. Still, their reach is undeniable.

Gorski warned that the cases are a test run for broader repression against immigrants and activists in Germany, not just about four protesters. “They’re being used as guinea pigs.”
