1\ Activists daring to raise the Palestinian flag at the #Israeli pro-democracy demonstrations tonight were at risk of assault by both the police & fellow protesters who think that "democracy to all" is too controversial & outrageous.
2\ Here, a pro-democracy protester blocks the Channel 14 cameraman from filming the Palestinian flag in #TelAviv. The protester then accused the cameraman of assault.
3\ Israeli pro-democracy protesters were forcefully preventing a protester from waving the Palestinian flag at the Azrieli Junction #TelAviv.
4\ Another Israeli pro-democracy protester is yelling at a fellow protester who dared raise a Palestinian flag.

The demonstration's slogan was "Freedom. Equality. Probity of governance," but maybe equality is not for all!
5\ In #Jerusalem, the #Israeli police rushed to confiscate a tiny Palestinian flag from an activist at the Israeli pro-democracy demonstration, then escorted him to the police point.
6\ The Israeli police assaulted the activist who raised a tiny Palestinian flag at the Israeli pro-democracy demonstration in #Jerusalem to call for "democracy to all."
7\ In #TelAviv, the protest organizers brought hundreds & hundreds of Israeli flags to make sure they flood any Palestinian flags raised at the pro-democracy demonstration.

The demonstration calls for "Freedom. Equality. Probity of governance"!
PS. Per @grapesofwhat & @TribunusPlebei, the 2nd footage shows the protester in yellow preventing a cameraman from the extremely right-wing Channel 14 from filming the activist with a Palestinian flag. She's confronting him for being a propaganda channel.

Here's how & why GHF massacres happen daily (step by step)🧵

1- Starved Gazans sleep in the open near al-Mawasi's Mu'awiya mosque that leads to the GHF "hubs"

Near dawn, more desperate people arrive & start pushing the queue to get to GHF

IDF fires: 1st massacre of the day at 3:00-4:00. Everyday, like clockwork

The more fires shot, the more starved people panic, scatter or stampede, & the more violently the IDF attacks (e.g. tank shells, live bullets)
2- The gangs arrive first:

At the crack of dawn, the IDF & GHF allow in collaborators, looters, gang members & subcontractors who open boxes to scavenge & loot the most valuable items (e.g. oil) to sell on the black market

No massacres at that point
3- First wave of starved Gazans arrive in the earliest hours of the morning

The IDF & GHF allow them into the caged concentration camp & feeding pens

But more people show up than what GHF could handle (i.e. 8,000 food boxes per day for 2.4 million people)

IDF starts shooting: 2nd massacre of the day

People who managed to get food sometimes encounter criminals on their way back who loot the boxes by force

🚨Anyone claiming Hamas rejected Witkoff's ceasefire deal is outright lying

Hamas accepted the proposal & added to it the following points:

1- Hamas steps down from gov, hands control over Gaza to a technocratic independent committee (Netanyahu removed this from an earlier draft)

2- Immediately rehabilitating Gaza's infrastructure, inc. electricity, water, sanitation, telecom, roads, hospitals, schools

3- Negotiating a possible long-term truce for 5-7 years that entails full cessation of "offensive military operations" by both sides

4- Allowing Gazans to travel out of & back to Gaza freely through the Rafah crossing & resuming commercial goods & trade

5- Finalising reconstruction arrangement & plans during the negotiations on ending the war & providing aid to Gazans affected by the war.

6- Reconstruction of the Gaza Strip to be implemented over 3-5 years (i.e. the widely endorsed Egyptian plan); under the supervision of a number of countries & organizations, including Egypt, Qatar, & UN.

6- Ceasefire would continue automatically after the 60 day pause if Israel & Hamas are still negotiating by then (this was a basic condition in the Jan 19 ceasefire agreement Netanyahu signed).

7- Hamas would release 10 Israeli captives & 18 bodies during the 60-day pause, & will release all remaining captives as soon as the final phase is agreed upon (i.e. ending the war).

Most of those points were ALREADY in the outline Hamas reached with Trump's negotiating team last week before Netanyahu rejected that proposal completely out of hand & forced Witkoff to take those items offImage
Image
Image
2\ Hamas' full response in English is here:
dropsitenews.com/p/hamas-respon…
3\ The main changes between Witkoff's latest outline & Hamas' response are:

1- Witkoff's proposal says the 60-day pause would be extended "under conditions" & for "a duration agreed upon by the parties", which basically means after the 60 days are over, Netanyahu would say give me the remaining captives for another 60 days (that's how he did it last March).

Hamas's response says the 60-day pause should be renewed if negotiations are still ongoing (which is literally what the Jan 19 agreement stipulated, which Israel signed & agreed to & the US guaranteed).

2- Witkoff's latest proposal says Hamas would release the 10 Israeli captives & 18 bodies within one week of the 60-day ceasefire starting (what would guarantee Israel wouldn't end the ceasefire right after that week?)

Hamas says they'd release 4 of alive captives on day 1, two of them on day 30, & 4 on day 60, to ensure Israel's compliance with the terms of the agreement (Israel violated the last agreement over 960 times).

3- Witkoff's latest proposal says Hamas & Israel would negotiate the permanent ceasefire on day 1 of the this 60-day pause going into effect. It says the topics the two sides would negotiate *include*:
- Keys & terms of prisoner swap for the remaining captives
- Israel's withdrawal and redeployment
- Long-term security arrangements within Gaza
- "Day after" arrangements

Hamas removed the word "including" since it's a loophole that allows Netanyahu to add more demands last minute to sabotage the talks. They defined the terms of the negotiations to be about:
- Keys & terms of prisoner swap for the remaining captives
- *Full* Israeli withdrawal from Gaza (not redeployment)
- Day after arrangements which are; Hamas handing over control in Gaza immediately to a technocratic independent committee & full cessation of "offensive military operations" by both sides for 5-7 years (to give room for PA-Israeli peace negotiations).Image

🚨Conclusive evidence of Israel running the very criminal gangs looting aid in Gaza🧵

Hamas released footage today of an ambush against what they thought were Israeli Mista'arvim (undercover) soldiers in Rafah

But upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Abu Shabab's gang; the Israel-backed warlord, drug dealer, & serial criminal responsible for looting the vast majority of aid under full IDF protection.

Abu Shabab runs a gang of 100-200 armed mercenaries who sat up a military complex in Rafah with Israel's backing

In the footage, Abu Shabab's mercenaries were walking around a depopulated Rafah freely carrying weapons in front of Israeli troops (currently any Palestinian that walks into Rafah is killed on the spot).

The mercenaries were conducting surveillance activities for Israel of those areas.
2\ From the Hamas footage, a senior Abu Shabab gang leader is identified; Ghassan Al-Dahini is the mercenary running the gang's operation on the ground

He survived this ambush & is believed to still be running the Israel-backed gang Image
Image
3\ In mid-April, exactly when this ambush was carried out, a facebook group posted the names of 4 armed individuals that were killed in Rafah while "conducting work"

They were ex-officers of the PA security forces

They are the ones seen killed in the Hamas video above Image

🚨Thousands of starved Gazans storm the dystopian Israeli-American aid complex in Rafah after being forced to stand in endless queues & bake in the sun in a fenced concentration camp while being subjected to biometric surveillance

US mercenaries & Israeli troops are opening fire
Image
2\ Israel's Kan reports the US mercenaries were likely the ones opening fire at the starved crowds, while reports from Gaza indicate Israeli troops also fired at the crowds

People were told to stand in queue all day while mercenaries pick & choose who gets aid & who starves Image
3\ Israel's channel 12 highlights reports that an Israeli helicopter began firing at the starved crowed, while the American mercenaries ran away

False! Mohammed Sinwar was (allegedly) killed within a radius of over 500 METERS from that Gazan hospital

Which is about the same distance the IDF Bunker/HQ in Tel-Aviv is located from the Azrieli Shopping Mall, Tel-Aviv Museum of arts & the Assuta Hashalom HOSPITAL🧵 Image
2\ Israel indiscriminately carpet bombed Gaza's European hospital & its surrounding areas up to 500 meters with bunker buster missiles

Israel weaponizes a lethal gas that is a byproduct of those missiles to kill anyone inside targeted tunnels even if distant from the impact area Image
3\ Israel didn't know where Mohammed Sinwar was exactly, so they bombed the entire area with dozens of their heaviest rockets hoping one of them would hit the target.

Carpet bombing is a war crime, no matter who it is you're claiming to target

Devil's in the detail: No! Israel didn't end its starvation policy in Gaza

They just decided to allow 3.3% of the bare minimum amount of aid necessary for human survival, & only temporarily for one week until they set up dystopian "hubs" in Rafah run by armed US mercenaries🧵 Image
Image
2\ Israel makes clear those dystopian aid "hubs" will be set up in Rafah, run by armed US mercenaries, equipped with facial recognition tech for massive surveillance & surrounded by Israeli checkpoints teeming with genocidal soldiers.

This is a trap/bait, not "humanitarian aid"! Image
3\ As I explained in detail in @zeteo_news: Israel's aid plan was condemned by the UN, EU diplomats, experts, & every single humanitarian org working in Gaza.

It's a sinister tool for institutionalizing starvation, forcible transfer & concentration camps!
