The Palestinian people in Masafer Yatta refuse to be ethnically cleansed from their homeland. #DefendMasaferYatta

Today, Israel began the year by destroying 4 Palestinian homes in Masafer Yatta, forcing out native Palestinian families who've existed on this land for generations Protest photo with text reading: "ALL EYES ON MASAFER Y
While the new increasingly fascist right-wing Israeli government is now in place, Israel has been brutally killing Palestinian people and stealing their land for decades.

Now, Israel is planning to accelerate ethnic cleansing in Masafer Yatta & expel 1,000+ Palestinian people.
The lack of international pressure, as the U.S. continually fails to hold Israel accountable, is only further enabling Israel's war crimes.

Remember: Our U.S. tax dollars—$3.8+ billion a year—fund Israel's colonial violence, like today's demolitions.

🧵 ALL EYES ON PALESTINE
The Israeli military & armed Israeli settlers are attacking Palestinian communities across Palestine. News from Palestine isn't getting out amid censorship & Israel’s targeting of journalists. Here’s what you need to know about what’s happening right now:
Shu’afat, a Palestinian refugee camp in Jerusalem, has been under Israeli military siege for 6 days.

Over 100,000 Palestinian people are affected as Israel blocks food & medical supplies from reaching them.
Palestinian people across Jerusalem declared a general strike in protest of Israel’s siege on Shu’afat after its residents announced civil disobedience.

In response, Israeli violence intensified.

"Human being rights in Masafer Yatta are in real danger. People could lose their lives at any moment—Israelis don’t care, they can start bombing & shooting. This is because the international community is not holding any accountability of Israel." —Sami Huraini of @YouthOfSumud

One week from today, the Israeli government will impose severe new travel restrictions that will further discriminate against Palestinian people.

mondoweiss.net/2022/06/aparth…
These new travel restrictions will force Palestinian people to hand over invasive surveillance information such as family member ID numbers.

The restrictions will also prevent Palestinian people from visiting Palestine, cruelly separate families, & cause further racial trauma.
Israel's new travel restrictions will further discriminate against Palestinians & separate them from family.

Yet @StateDept @DHSGov want to bring Israel into the visa waiver program—so Israeli nationals can enter the U.S., while Palestinian Americans can't visit their homeland.

President Biden is traveling to Israel this month, a country accused of war crimes & notorious for its awful human rights record.

Biden has done nothing to stop Israel's violence against Palestinians.

Policy analysis via @theIMEU:

imeu.org/article/imeu-p…
The @UN & every major human rights organization, including @hrw & @amnestyusa, have concluded that Israel is enforcing a brutal & racist system of oppression against Palestinians that amounts to apartheid.

amnestyusa.org/endapartheid/?…
The Israeli gov't is forcing over 1,000 Palestinians out of the homes they’ve lived in for generations. The Israeli military just killed Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.

Every day Israel violently oppresses millions of Palestinians just b/c they’re Palestinian.
