Yesterday marked the 105th anniversary of the #BalfourDeclaration, a fateful, colonial statement by the British government that paved the way for establishing a Jewish supremacist settler-colony in Palestine. Image
The Balfour Declaration laid the foundation for the 1948 #Nakba, the #EthnicCleansing of between 750,000 and 1,000,000 Indigenous Palestinians at the hands of Zionist militias, and subsequently Israeli forces. Image
The ongoing Palestinian Nakba entails Israel’s relentless land theft, denial of human rights & legalized racial discrimination, made possible by massive military, economic & political support from the U.S., EU, U.K. & other complicit states, international orgs & corporations. Image

The Israeli government + private companies like NSO Group are exporting the Palestinian experience of mass surveillance under apartheid, threatening civil society globally.

New visual on #PegasusSpyware via @visualizingpal, @alhaq_org, #MindTheGap Consortium, @BisanResearch.

India is the largest purchaser of Israeli-made arms.

Under a far-right gov led by Modi, India & apartheid Israel also conduct joint military drills & host police & army training & exchange visits.

🧵 Let's explore military & security links between them.

As the Covid-19 pandemic hit the world, India's healthcare system struggled to cope with the spread. Still, Modi's government ordered 16,479 Israeli Negev machine guns, worth $116 million.

A 2019 report said that India is suffering from the worst water crisis in its history, and almost 600 million of its population are water-deprived.

Yet Modi's neoliberal government continue to focus on massive military trade with apartheid Israel.

Former Honduran President, Juan Hernández, “poster boy” of Israeli diplomacy, is charged with sponsoring a “corrupt & violent drug-trafficking conspiracy.”

🧵Let's explore the deadly links between Hernández’s regime and apartheid Israel.

Apartheid Israel propped up Hernández's ruthless regime with weapons, military training & access to the Trump White House. In return, Honduras voted against Palestinian rights at the @UN & agreed to move its embassy to occupied Jerusalem.

Israeli-armed Honduran forces were implicated in the “torture, rape, … kidnappings & killings of journalists, students, opposition activists, … activists on behalf of farmers’ rights, homeless rights, & indigenous communities’ rights.”

Israeli @NSOgroup is part of the global spyware trade which profits from repression.

Civil society is uniting to stop this. Activists in India, where 300+ names appeared on the target list of Pegasus, have launched this campaign. Join us! bit.ly/3E9VhU7

Here's why 👇🏾
In July 2021, #PegasusProject exposed the use of Israeli @NSOgroup's spyware against thousands of journalists, activists & politicians. Apartheid Israel is at the center of the spyware trade, which is repressive by design and field-tested on Palestinians.

Cambridge University has cancelled a £400M deal with the UAE dictatorship over its use of Pegasus against journalists and human rights defenders. All institutions must also end ties with apartheid Israel which produces this life-threatening technology.

In a historic victory for Palestinians & human rights activists, US progressive democrats have stripped 1 billion of taxpayer dollars allocated specifically for apartheid Israel's Iron Dome system, reflecting a recent tidal change in US public opinion ➡️ bit.ly/2W0I9Qy
US public support for Israel is plummeting! Last week a @washingtonpost survey found 65% of academic experts believe Israel's actions are akin to apartheid. In May, @AAIUSA found 51% of US public oppose unrestricted military funding for Israel. Congress is beginning to catch up!
Instead of using US tax dollars to fund apartheid Israel's brutal siege, massacres & ethnic cleansing of Indigenous Palestinians, @POTUS @JoeBiden should listen to growing US public opinion & spend on healthcare, racial justice & education.
