As Palestinians, we call for meaningful solidarity, we demand accountability.

Journalist syndicates & media studies/journalism faculties must take concrete action to hold apartheid Israel accountable for the murder of #ShireenAbuAkleh. #JusticeForShireen
loom.ly/X9KMu8M
Journalist syndicates, unions and federations should:

- End ties with complicit Israeli institutions.

- Pledge to refuse junkets to Israel funded by the Israeli government, complicit Israeli institutions and Israel lobby groups.
- Support journalists who refuse to cover assignments in Israel on ethical grounds.

- Support the International Federation of Journalists @IFJGlobal's case before the @IntlCrimCourt on Israel’s systematic targeting of Palestinian journalists.
- Pledge to respect the ethical and professional journalistic guidelines developed by the Palestinian Journalists’ Syndicate and the Palestinian BDS National Committee.

- Pledge to center Palestinian voices and eyewitnesses instead of centering Israeli government spokespersons.
Media studies and journalism faculties, departments, and programs should:

- Respect the Palestinian #BDS call by ending ties with complicit Israeli institutions.

- Refuse to host official representatives of complicit Israeli institutions.
Condemn the killing, but hold the killers accountable, too.

Imposing US sanctions on Israel, once taboo, is finally mainstreaming. Calls for trade sanctions, canceling arms shipments, or conditioning military sales are now rising even among dozens of Congress members & former senior White House officials.

For 6 months, the US has been arming, funding and diplomatically shielding Israel’s #GazaGenocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in occupied & besieged Gaza. Polls show that at least 52% of Americans now support stopping all arms shipments to Israel.

Longtime Democratic leader and AIPAC-beneficiary Nancy Pelosi is among the 56+ members of Congress urging Biden to suspend arms transfers to Israel over the “harm to innocent [Palestinian] civilians in Gaza” and the deadly attacks on humanitarian aid workers. Image

US VP Kamala Harris said: “People in Gaza are starving. The conditions are inhumane & our common humanity compels us to act.” Affirming starving Palestinians in Gaza were met with Israeli gunfire, Harris said Israel must allow more aid in, “no excuses.”

What is the “excuse” then for the US government partnering in Israel’s #GazaGenocide, excluding itself from any “common humanity.”

It arms, funds and defends Israel’s genocide, preventing a ceasefire and any form of accountability to international law. Image
All 2.3M Palestinians in occupied Gaza are hungry & over half a million are “starving,” according to UN experts. By defunding UNRWA, the colonial West led by the US is directly starving Palestinians, according to @LemkinInstitute for Genocide Prevention.

For the first time in its history, Israel’s credit rating has been downgraded by Moody’s. Its rating outlook was also changed to “negative,” reflecting its growing debt, budget deficit, and structural economic woes.

This is a major blow to Israel's economy as it continues its genocidal war on the 2.3 million Palestinians in the occupied and besieged Gaza Strip. More than ever, Israel is looking like a #ShutDownNation.
Moody’s stated on Friday that Israel’s war on Gaza and its aftermath will “materially raise political risk for Israel as well as weaken its executive and legislative institutions and its fiscal strength, for the foreseeable future.”

🧵 Israel's genocidal war on 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza has killed over 20,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Image
9,000 Palestinians among them have succumbed to their wounds due to lack of medical care amid the collapse of the healthcare sector.

1,000 Palestinian children have undergone the unimaginable trauma of having their limbs amputated without anaesthesia.
900,000 Palestinian children in shelters are at risk of dehydration, famine, anaemia, as well as respiratory & digestive diseases.

Following @IntlCrimCourt’s years long failure to prosecute Israeli war criminals and @KarimKhanQC’s recent op-ed further exposing his utter hypocrisy in favor of apartheid Israel & its Western patrons, we call on ICC state parties to push for firing him.

@IntlCrimCourt @KarimKhanQC From his Brimingham jail, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Justice too long delayed is justice denied.” The ICC has since 2014 failed to act on the many war crimes complaints meticulously researched and presented to it by Palestinian human rights orgs and other parties.
@IntlCrimCourt @KarimKhanQC By failing to issue arrest warrants for Israeli war criminals for #GazaGenocide and even to deter them with warnings, @KarimKhanQC has been complicit in enabling Israel’s unfolding genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in the occupied and besieged Gaza Strip.

REVEALED: “Everything is intentional” – Israel’s “factory” of mass murder in Gaza.

Since Oct 7, Israel’s relentless bombing in Gaza has murdered over 7,100 Palestinian children and a total of at least 20,000 Palestinians, including those missing under the rubble.

Disturbing revelations from Israeli intelligence and military officers given to Israeli media outlet +972 expose the deadly decision-making system behind the ongoing #GazaGenocide.

Every strike on Gaza is planned, with Israeli intelligence estimating civilian casualties with chilling precision. The intentional targeting of civilian homes and infrastructure aims to maximize harm, destroying the very fabric of life in Gaza.
