To the people who follow me, you’ll recall I predicted they would suddenly release images of dead unidentified bodies and claim it was from October 7th (which they for some reason decided to not release until 45 days later? Like they could at least try and be smart about it) and I made that prediction right after Palestinians started saying that the Israelis stole Palestinian bodies. Israel certainly doesn’t disappoint when it comes to their lies and propaganda.

"Why is there no doctors or scientists or educated people in gaza?" Because Israel is killing them all. The majority of the population in gaza are under 18, Israel kills them before they get to college, and also kills the ones who do.

reminder that boycotting is long term.
you can’t wait for stocks of a company to plummet immediately and then be like “ok i’m done!”
you have to keep boycotting until the company releases an official statement retracting their support of genocidal regimes. and you have to keep boycotting the ones actively participating in crimes permanently until they shut down completely.
it shouldn’t be hard. go to your local cafe instead of starbucks. invest in a coffee machine. look up the recipes online and make em yourself. yes it’ll cost money but it’s not like sbucks is cheap. if you can afford regular purchases of overpriced coffee you can afford a one-time purchase of a coffee machine.
don’t go to mcdonald’s. go have food from small businesses. if you’re craving fried chicken, go to your local fried chicken store. there are bound to be plenty. look up recipes and make them at home even. it’ll be healthier anyway.
don’t watch disney shows and movies. if you do want to, maybe don’t use official disney sites to do so. it’s harder to boycott tv shows but try your best to find a way around it. don’t go to disneyland. you can sacrifice your fun for a greater cause.
there are alternatives for all these things.
remember: you do not have to boycott every company, you just need to boycott these big ones. focus your energy on bringing down the big fish.

"We're collecting our kids in bags! In bags!" "We're finding body parts that we don't know who it belongs to"
A massacre after another, and the world is silent. This has to stop.

Some things to note when you're discussing Palestine and Israeli apartheid in the coming days/weeks/months (not a complete list but will update as I have the emotional energy):
Do not refer to what is happening in Palestine as a "conflict" or "war." These words imply a balance of power that does not exist. Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza have no military, no control of their borders, no control over their access to resources like electricity, water, and medical supplies, no freedom of movement, and, most importantly, they do not have the most powerful government in the world funding them.
Israel is an apartheid state. Refer to it as such. It is based in a settler colonialist system that actively recruits and funds people from the Jewish diaspora to move into homes on stolen Palestinian land. Since the formation of the state of Israel in 1948, 42% of the West Bank has been illegally settled while 86% of East Jerusalem has been stolen for settler use. Under international law, the expansion of these settlements is illegal. Israel has faced zero repercussions for their actions. Hold them accountable in your speech.
Do not refer to the Israeli army as the "IDF" (Israeli Defense Force). Palestinians refer to them as the "IOF" for a reason--Israel does not need to defend themselves from civilians who have no military. From 2008 to September 2023, over 3,800 Palestinian civilians were killed by the IOF. There is no need for oppressors to defend themselves--they are the ones on the offense at all times by the nature of their positions of power.
Remember that decolonization will not be a peaceful process. Do not condemn a group of people who have been brutally colonized, ethnically cleansed, and displaced from their homes for 75 years for fighting back against those oppressing them. This post concisely explains why the violence necessary for decolonization will never match that of the violence necessary for the sustained process of colonization. You cannot break free of a violent system with nonviolence. When Palestinians attempted peaceful protest in 2018 on the 70th anniversary of the Nakba, they along with clearly marked journalists, doctors, and medics were shot and killed for their actions. Oppressors will maintain their power status by any means necessary; the ongoing genocide of Palestinians is proof of that. Decolonization requires violence because colonization itself is an inherently violent system.
Zionism does not equate to Judaism. Do not let Zionist propaganda fool you into believing that condemning the Israeli government is in any way anti-Semitic. The Israeli government does not represent the views of all Jews, even those who are Israeli citizens. Governments should always, always be criticized and held to account for their actions. Israel is no exception to this rule. Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Anyone who tells you otherwise is weaponizing true Jewish oppression and suffering as a means to gain support for a violent, racist, apartheid government.

I had a professor in college who did his anthropology fieldwork in Palestine. He is a Jew, but he was in his 20s, olive skinned, had a longish beard, fit the "look" of a member of Hamas. This was probably the 1990s, maybe early 2000s. He wasn't Palestinian, let alone a member of Hamas, he was a Jewish American doing anthropology fieldwork in Palestine.
He was regularly harrassed by the IDF. He told us a story about being stopped at a checkpoint, being told to get out of his car so they could search it, and then watching as they disassembled his engine piece by piece. When it was completely taken to bits, they said they had finished their search and found nothing suspicious and he was free to go.
I don't remember other stories, but that one has stuck with me.
He is firmly anti-zionist, and very much a practicing Jew.
That's what I think about when I hear about the Israeli state. A young Jewish American man watching IDF soldiers take his car apart, just because they could and because they assumed he was Palestinian.
Free Palestine.

Boycott. Please remember to boycott. Focus on these three. You can make a difference.
Edit: See this link for more on what to boycott from BDS. And here as well.
