Die antisemitische #Nakba75-Kampagne artikulierte zuletzt wie gewohnt keine Solidarität mit palästinensischen Zivilist_innen, verbreitet umso mehr Kriegsgetrommel gegen israelische Zivilist_innen.
Das jüdische Leben in Deutschland wird davon bedroht

Bundesweit kam es 2023 zu mehreren aufeinander folgenden antisemitischen Demonstrationen. In Berlin wurde ein Verbot von #Samidoun-Demos verfügt. Immer wieder wurde hier der Tod von Jüdinnen und Juden gefordert.
Nicht nur in Berlin, auch bspw. in Köln

Today in Berlin, the only publ. event commemorating the Nakba took place. All others - organized mostly by Palestinians were preemptively barred by City/Police. This one was organized by pro-Palestinian Jewish Activists among them descendants of Holocaust survivors. I shouldn’t >
have to point this out because Palestinians shouldn’t have to rely on other - any! - group to lend authority/space/voice to commemorate their own & ongoing ethnic cleansing, the wanton destruction of their history/society spanning millennia by European settlers. Here in Germany >
however this is the case. Palestinians aren’t afforded any space by the state, their rights to congregate are systematically undermined due to a misunderstood sense of responsibility & guilt. From the beginning, the rather small demonstration faced intense Police intimidation. >
Israel is and always has been a rogue state founded on mythical delusion and ethnic cleansing.

As a settler-construct built by euro-colonizers it is well-aware of the underlying fragility (history doesn’t treat oppressive structures kindly) and thus acts like it - exposing its pathological need for compensation as was demonstrated yesterday during its annual flag pogrom.
Zoé yesterday said it best: freedom of settlers *is* the violence. It reminds me of Fanon’s assertion that existence of colonizers is violence in itself. As such the settler state will not & cannot tire: it needs to perpetually escalate violence against natives to survive.
The police report which tries to justify the ban on Berlin's #Nakba rally on May 20th is insane.

1) uses racist circular-logic: "because the Israeli attacks on 🇵🇸 increased, this could upset *emotional* brown Berliners + cause them to act impulsively"

Police #Nakba Ban 2:
Police claim "BDS, and slogans *From the river to the sea* or *Boykott Israel* are *anti-semitic*"
This police claim itself is anti-Semitic, i.e. policies of Israeli government=Jews.
The appearence of a different rally as "militant" is also used as a smear

Even the slogan "Free Palestine" is rated as a threat
Acts of Israeli violence are described only from the Zionist perspective, e.g. the death of Khader Adnan 10x jailed without mentioning that he was NEVER charged nor tried.

Palestinians are still being ethnically cleansed nearly every day of the year.

Spent the day thinking about relatively recent displacement of people in 🇮🇱/🇵🇸, and am currently filled w/much sadness
My hope is that to increase awareness & encourage a shared narrative around this
Hence a 🧵on 20th century Jewish displacement in 🇬🇧 Palestine

2/ Peki'in
This Jewish community had a continuous presence in the village since the times of the Second Temple! It was mostly populated by Musta'arabi Jews, which fled due to heightened anti-Jewish violence in the village in 1936. The majority never returned

3/ Gaza
It's unclear how long there's been a continuous Jewish presence; at least since the 1400s. Gaza City still has a Jewish Quarter to commemorate the lost community. The community was expelled in 1929 during the anti-Jewish riots, and were forbidden to return by the British

Today, we join other Palestinians in marking 75 years since so many of our people were ethnically cleansed; their homes destroyed or stolen as they were turned into refugees.
They are still denied their right of return to this day.

Today and every day, reject the lie that Palestinians left willingly.

La Nakba, qui signifie « catastrophe » en arabe, désigne les massacres, l’exode et les destructions dont les Palestinien•nes ont été victimes au moment de la création de l’état d’Israël en 1948.

This provides a good opportunity to dispel some myths about the Nakba that are all too common, particularly among western audiences. Let’s take a brief stroll through history, shall we?
The state of Israel was declared in Palestine on May 14th, 1948. On May 15th, 1948, Arab armies from neighboring states to Palestine entered the battlefield. Here you can see one of the most common myths repeated in a NYT narrative around the Nakba. #Nakba75
Note the sequence of events. The refugees are a result of the war. The war is the result of the Arab army invasion which followed the innocent act of declaring a state. How barbaric of those Arabs to do such a thing?
🇵🇸#Nakba75: o que é a catástrofe palestina?
Todos os anos, no dia 15/05, palestinos
e apoiadores da causa relembram a #Nakba (do árabe, “catástrofe”), referindo-se à limpeza étnica da Palestina e à destruição quase total da sociedade que habitava os territórios pré-1948. 🧵

Neste dia, #Israel passou a existir: sua criação foi um processo violento que envolveu a expulsão forçada de milhares de palestinos de suas terras para o estabelecimento de um Estado de maioria judaica, de acordo com as aspirações do movimento sionista.
As forças sionistas tomaram mais de 78% da #Palestina histórica, limparam etnicamente e destruíram cerca de 530 vilas e cidades (a exemplo do Plano Dalet), e mataram cerca de 15.000 palestinos em uma série de atrocidades, incluindo 70+ massacres. #Nakba75
75 years ago, the Nakba took place in Palestine in which 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled from their homes.
But the Nakba didn’t end in 1948. It continues to affect more than 12 million Palestinians who remain stateless today as they fight to end Israeli occupation ⤵️

Zionist military forces expelled at least 750,000 Palestinians from their homes and lands and captured 78% of historic Palestine.
The remaining 22% was divided into what are now the occupied West Bank and the besieged Gaza Strip.

Between 1947 and 1949, Zionist military forces attacked major Palestinian cities and destroyed some 530 villages.
About 15,000 Palestinians were killed in a series of mass atrocities, including dozens of massacres.

There are two 'Nakbas'.
1. The real catatrophe that occured when the Arabs failed to wipe out the Jewish state.
2. The mythical narrative that they remember on Nakba Day 2/13

2. The mythical narrative that they remember on Nakba Day 2/13
They build their story on several pillars:
That the Palestinians welcomed the Jews
The Palestinians were innocent victims
The Jews planned to expel them
It was a one-sided slaughter
The demographic weakness of the Jews
The Arab armies had to save the Palestinians 3/13

🧵Last night we held a historic event in the Senate to mark 75 years of Israel's ongoing Nakba against the Palestinian people w/ @AJPaction, Project 48, @DAWNmenaorg, @USCPR_, @afsc_org, Virginia Coalition for Human Rights, @EmgageAction, @JvpAction, & special guest @RepRashida.
2/ @SpeakerMcCarthy failed to cancel our event & silence the voices of Palestinian survivors of the Nakba. McCarthy's attempts to prevent Palestinians from sharing their lived experiences under Israeli oppression mirrors Israel's attempt to erase the Palestinian people.
3/ But as @4noura eloquently stated: "We exist. And today, gathered here we are collectively saying, Nahna mawjudin. It is of utmost importance to say that here because we are within the very institution that has sustained the ongoing Nakba."
I couldn’t agree more and where better to voice this than in the very country that authored our ongoing dispossession.

Feel guilty about european Jewish pogroms and holocaust?
Install your settler colony in Europe, if atonement is your aim.
We shall not be scapegoated to satisfy your geopolitical ideals, even as you use a myth in the bastardised version of the bible to justify your savagery.

You've considered a baker's dozen countries to steal for your racist project, and no doubt, you'd invent a million myths to accommodate fitting the square in that cursed circle.
