Because #FacebookCensorsPalestine, thousands of activists are calling on Facebook’s @OversightBoard to #DropEmiPalmor and stop the suppression of Palestine and Palestinian voices:
In 2016, a Facebook delegation met Israeli Minister Ayelet Shaked and Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan—who spearheads the fight against the BDS movement—with the aim of improving “cooperation against incitement.”

What makes this extra special is that Shaked herself is an inciter to violence against Palestinians.

Following the meeting, Facebook began a censorship rampage against Palestinians. Israeli officials boast that Facebook complies with 95% of their requests for removing content. theintercept.com/2017/12/30/fac…
Meanwhile, 7amleh reports a racist post is published by Israelis against Palestinians every 46 seconds with little to no consequences.

In May, over 50 Palestinian journalists and activists woke up to find their Facebook accounts deleted by Facebook for "not following our Community Standards." No specific reason was given for the mass deactivation. middleeasteye.net/news/facebook-…
Last month, Facebook took down the Gaza Health Ministry page, an important source of information, just as the number of coronavirus cases in Gaza began to grow. electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abun…
Facebook’s censorship prevents Palestinian voices from being heard, making Facebook complicit in Israel’s efforts to hide its human rights violations from the world. To learn more, visit: act.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/a/stop-censori…

THREAD: Today marks 2 years since Israel killed renowned Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. Israel hasn't stopped killing Palestinian journalists since then.
On May 11, 2022, an Israeli soldier shot Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in the head, killing her while she was reporting in a clearly marked press vest and helmet.

Israel and the US ignored widespread calls for accountability.
Since then, Israel has continued killing journalists with impunity.

In the past 7 months alone, Israel has killed at least 135 Palestinian journalists in Gaza, more journalists than were killed in the entirety of WWII.

BREAKING: Another mass grave has been discovered in the courtyard of Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza, containing the bodies of dozens of Palestinians, including doctors, nurses, women, children, and patients.

Here's what you need to know.
In March, Israeli soldiers violently invaded Al Shifa Hospital, killing dozens of Palestinians and kidnapping hundreds, including journalists, from inside the hospital.

Since then, dozens of bodies have been discovered in unmarked mass graves in the hospital courtyard.
This is the 3rd mass grave discovered at Al Shifa Hospital, and the 7th found in a hospital courtyard in Gaza – a harrowing indication of the scale and brutality of Israel's targeted destruction of hospitals.

THREAD: US universities are attacking students for opposing Israel's genocide in Gaza and standing for Palestinian freedom.
For over 6 months, student activists across US campuses have organized to stop Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, defend Palestinian rights, and end their universities’ financial ties to Israeli apartheid and genocide.
In response, university faculty members and administrators have allowed their students to be physically assaulted, arrested, doxxed, harassed, suspended, and more.

THREAD: Israeli settler mobs, armed by the Israeli government, are attacking Palestinian towns in the West Bank.

Here's what you need to know.
This week, mobs of Israeli settlers violently attacked at least 10 Palestinian towns across the West Bank in an attempt to drive Palestinians out of their homes and off their land.

Backed by the Israeli military, Israeli settlers killed at least 1 Palestinian this weekend, injured dozens, and burned down Palestinian homes and cars.
These Israeli settlers are backed and armed by politicians at the highest level of Israel’s government.

In the past 6 months, Israel has given out tens of thousands of machine guns to extremist settlers living on stolen Palestinian land.

JOURNALISTS: 5 things to remember when covering Israel’s attack on Rafah
1. Nearly 1.5 million Palestinians in Rafah are being starved and attacked by the Israeli military and face the prospect of being killed or driven out of Gaza into Egypt.
2. Israel ethnically cleansed most of the Palestinians packed into Rafah from the north of Gaza, driving them from their homes south into the small border town next to Egypt in the latest phase in its campaign of ethnic cleansing and genocide.

THREAD: Israeli settlers and soldiers killed a Palestinian American teenager on Friday in the Palestinian West Bank.

Once again, the Biden admin has failed to demand accountability from Israel for killing a US citizen. Instead, it funds, arms, and emboldens Israel's war crimes.
Tawfiq Ajaj, 17, was raised near New Orleans but moved to the Palestinian West Bank last year.

On Friday, he was chased and shot at by an Israeli settler and off-duty soldier.

Tawfiq is the 358th Palestinian, and 93rd child, killed by Israel in the West Bank since October 7.
Palestinian children are often attacked by Israeli settlers and soldiers together.

Under Israel’s apartheid system, Israeli settlers and soldiers work together to inflict violence against Palestinians. “One aids and abets the other,” a @DCIPalestine spokesperson said.
