Riche en mémoire!

Quel héritage voulez-vous laisser ? Voilà l’héritage que je souhaite laisser : simplement marquer mes rencontres, rendre inoubliables des moments simples de la vie. Je n’ai jamais été quelqu’un de mauvais, bien au contraire. Pendant tout mon parcours, pourtant, j’aurais pu vouloir le monde entier. Entre déceptions amicales et parfois des destinées brisées par des personnes qui, au lieu de…

"I believe in a shared binational state where the good, angelic Palestinians will be able to live in peace with the evil, deceitful, murderous white European colonialist Jews!"

No you don't. Don't insult us by acting like you think we're that stupid

Sorry one more thing I wasn't going to talk about but if you had asked me about the binational state/land thing maybe... in 2016, I might have given a somewhat positive answer but I think that since then, Israeli society has become exponentially more racist and anti-Palestinian. Since then we had the Abraham Accords, Sheikh Jarrah, Massafir Yatta, the highest child martyr count in years, and now finally a full blown genocide. Many Palestinians who previously advocated for equality in a single state look at all this, especially in recent months and think "how can I live side by side with these people?"

The vast majority of Israeli society is not against war for the sake of the Palestinians, they're against war for their own safety. They say as much. Hell, look at standing together. The founder guy says "our security is tied in with the Palestinians'". So if it wasn't tied with the Palestinians', you wouldn't care? And I get sometimes you need to introduce people to ideas gently, but their entire organization language emphasizes "shared pain" when there is an oppressor/oppressed dynamic they aren't even hinting at. How can anyone achieve safety if you won't even admit you have power over your Palestinian org members?

Even Brothers in Arms claims to want to "strengthen democracy" but they completely ignore Palestinians have never experienced democracy in "Israel". So what's the point strengthening your own standing when the most disadvantaged still are at rock bottom?? Plus your whole group represents the IOF reservists/members, you have no intention of helping Palestinians when you are the primary oppressors. And this is not an insignificant group in israel!

Not many Israelis are willing to put themselves on the line to protect or even advocate for Palestinians. I mean 7+ months into a genocide and what did israeli society do other than protest *netanyahu*? Hold up flour bags during the flour massacre??? The people serving in the idf are your friends and family and community. Tel Aviv is an hour away from Gaza. Surely you can do *something* physical!! They had people at their Gaza borders starving Palestinians on purpose and people just... watched it happen. Not to mention the IOF, which many Israelis are a part of, participates in the genocide and has been lauded for their "heroism". I look at that and I think "how can I expect you to seriously consider my rights as a person? How do I know you won't miss your old status and reclaim it?"

We've seen Israelis *celebrate* and *ridicule* our martyrs and people. So like where us the good faith in all this? Where can we work with some of these people and think "Yeah I believe they'll respect my inherent dignity as a person"?

Which binationalism relies on this. You need to have good faith between communities for this to actually happen. But when one community won't even acknowledge it's status as an oppressor at the height of oppression? Then what?

Israel as a country has never faced any retribution for its actions for 75 years. No one is holding them accountable. The country teaches propaganda in its schools about the Nakba. There is not serious consideration for Palestinian rights in Israeli society. Why would they suddenly decide to participate in a project that puts Palestinians as equal to Israelis when they learned all their lives that Palestinians are ruthless, unreasonable people who can't be reasoned with, and Israelis are logical, poor victims who are actually the ones who need protection from the Palestinians!

It just is mind boggling because I see people constantly complain about the way they hear things from Palestinians these days like "all Israelis need to leave". And they go on to say "why would you be so hateful/why would you say that" and don't think for a minute they're experiencing a televised genocide of their people (which they could have ended up in their shoes! People forget that Gaza has multiple refugee camps! Any one of us could have lived there!) And conversely are looking to Israeli society for them to do anything and they see nothing. At least think for a moment why they would say these things given the context of the situation. There's a genocide going on! And you're worried about what the people who are experiencing their people's genocide are saying because you're worried for the society conducting said genocide?? Let's deal with the matter at hand first!!!!!!

out of the blue started wondering abt the interconnectedness of my binationality/bilingualism/bisexuality/bigenderism and if i had more time and more brain power id rn id look into this and see if other multi-identity people experience a pattern in their identities like this i really don't know how else to express it

The Political Economy of Israel's Occupation: Repression Beyond Exploitation - Shir Hever

Hello friends, Starting off this December, I'm planning on reading some leftist texts unpacking Israeli settler colonialism and Palestinian resistance. The first book I've chosen provides a foundation for understanding the material foundation of the situation: "The Political Economy of Israel's Occupation: Repression Beyond Exploitation" by Shir Hever.

Dr. Hever studies the economic aspects of the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territory. He is the manager of the Alliance for Justice between Israelis an Palestinians (BIP), and the military embargo coordinator for the Boycott National committee (BNC). He published this book alongside "The Privatization of Israeli Security" and gives talks on various topics related to his research. This text argues that the premise that Israel keeps control over Palestinian territories for material gain or merely to defend itself from Palestinian aggression is incorrect. Instead, he argues that the occupation has reached an impasse, with the Palestinian resistance making exploitation of the Palestinians by Israeli business interests difficult, but the Israeli authorities are reluctant to give up control given their desires to maintain settler colonial control alongside the military-industrial complex being immensely powerful. He navigates through historical events, policy choices, and economic structures to illuminate the specific ways the occupation has challenged this traditional narrative. Through detailed expositions on the cost of the occupation at the level of metrics like inflation and the labor market, to broader questions on international aid questions, the costs of maintaining a gigantic "security" apparatus, and the fact that neoliberal reforms are profitable for a ruling class despite being inefficient economically. One example of this contradiction is in maintaining the Jerusalem Wall, which is actively harmful for Jerusalemites on any metric.

The last part unpacks various theories on how to understand this exploitation and binationalism. I appreciate the challenges to most accounts on this question and feel like we can create better views on this debate, highly recommend this text for this rich analysis!

Since the Nakba most Palestinians largely live under conditions of statelessness, occupation and dispersion. The Nakba is an explicitly continuing present, and its consequences are still unfolding and affecting contemporary Palestinian life. Its aftermath of suffering and political weakness affects nearly every Palestinian, Palestinian family and the Palestinian collective on an almost daily basis.

—Bashir Bashir, from "Deliberating the Holocaust and the Nakba: Disruptive Empathy and Binationalism in Israel/Palestine," in the Journal of Genocide Research

Ah, I completely forgot the character ask game! Adam Raczek?

oooh great choice, thank you!

character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS

ship with: a good night's sleep, therapy, and Vincent, in this order 

general opinions: Full disclosure: I haven't seen all of Raczek's cases. But the setup alone, the binationality and bilinguality, the dynamic with Olga Lenski but also with Vincent - it's all so interesting. Not 100% healthy or unproblematic, mind, but that's good fiction for you, isn't it. It's a damn shame the writers' choices eventually caused Lucas Gregorowicz to leave. (Also, boy. you know, I'm fairly ace, but this man? He's gorgeous, and incredibly charismatic, and I think I've had a slight crush on him ever since I watched 4><Z as a kid.)

put a character in my ask

People seem to be real upset about the very basic concept of binationality

for real😭 which is ironic because this is europe we’re talking about…

Pouvez-vous compter sur tous?

Voici une question que nous sommes nombreux à nous poser, n’est-ce pas ? Je suis d’accord avec vous sur ce sujet, si tel est bien votre cas. En effet, je me suis souvent posé cette question, et les réseaux sociaux y sont pour quelque chose. Il fut un temps où nous échangions facilement entre amis, lors de rencontres ou de soirées. Mais depuis que nous nous sommes réellement laissés absorber…

The thing is, I’m sure plenty of westerners chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” legitimately want a secular binational state (although a fair amount of them have so reviled “Zionism” that I’m not sure how much Jewish nationhood they would view as acceptable in this theoretical binational state). The problem is, while there exist binationalists in the WB and Gaza, they are far outnumbered by Arab Nationalists and Muslim theocrats whose position on Jews existing in their Palestinian state goes from “grudgingly allowing Jews to exist as a faith community but not an ethnic group” to “expelling and killing Jews as much as they can.”

And on the other side Jewish Israelis are so invested in Jewish self-determination that they won’t roll over if Palestinians attempt to take over 1948 Israel (or even 1967 Israel). The death toll on both sides would be unthinkable.

Time for another highly specific fic idea that's definitely not inspired by real life

AU Concept: French people have to sit through a day of civic duty presentations, an introduction to the military services and various tests to measure the young population's literacy and other stuff when they're in 1ere/Terminale (it's called the Journée de Défense et de Citoyenneté, aka the JDC). The dates they pick are somehow always the most inconvenient ones, and that's without juggling a superhero job on the side.

If you give them a good enough excuse or if you delay it enough times, then they kind of leave you alone for a couple of years before coming back to pester you again (at a time where it's probably even more inconvenient because studies).

Now what if Adrien and Marinette were still fighting evil at the end of Lycée, and so kept pushing back their appointment for the JDC (if Marinette has an Italian passport, maybe she used her binationality to get exempted temporarily in a "I'll do the equivalent in Italy!" way, which she knows she won't; Gabriel might bribe some people to delay it because of Adrien's busy schedule)? What if years later, things have settled down but somehow an identity reveal still hasn't happened, Adrien and Marinette kind of stay in touch but their lives are very busy and they're almost never in the same place at the same time, but somehow end up with convocations to the same JDC? What if they sit together and keep bantering about everything because they're bored out of their minds and also they just want to catch up? What if the reveal happens that way because one of them ends up making a comment on how ironic it is to be told about civic duty when surely they know better than anyone what it's all about - leading to conversations about the "minor" heroes they both were, but also "I mean, I can tell you this secret, I trust you..."

What if they get so excited and emotional about it that they get kicked out of the place, but they don't care because they found each other, and it ends with them crossing the champ de Mars to go to the place it all started - the Eiffel Tower 🥺
