THREAD: Yesterday, Zionist “defense” minister Benny Gantz announced the designation of six Palestinian civil society groups as “terrorist organizations.” #ResistanceIsNotACrime #FreePalestine 
Forcing civil society orgs to carry on their work underground is a tactic used not only by Israel but historically by the US to quash the Black liberation movement through COINTELPRO and similar surveillance programs aimed at destroying the Black Panthers, MOVE, etc.
The targeting of these orgs as “terrorist” operations is an attempt to punish & silence organizers who do the work of documenting the occupation’s violence & brutality, & for exposing the true motives of Zionist project that has caused a global shift in Palestinian support.
The Zionist state is determined to stifle any threat to its legitimacy on the world stage. In targeting civil society orgs, Israel makes clear that the threat to the Zionist project is credible. In the face of these scare tactics, our work carries on, & the struggle continues!
