Before yesterday's "Flour Massacre", the IDF has been shooting indiscriminately for WEEKS at starved Gazans awaiting aid trucks at the exact same spot, virtually every single day!

A 🧵of some of these incidents:

Feb 28: IDF soldiers take potshots at famished desperate Gazans
2\ Feb 27: A child shot in the abdomen by IDF soldiers at the Rasheed street while waiting for aid trucks

Starved Gazans go to that street everyday with the hope of encountering an aid truck coming in, the IDF sprays them with bullets EVERY SINGLE DAY
3\ Feb 26: IDF soldiers fire indiscriminately at starved Gazan crowds at the Rasheed street who came desperately looking for aid trucks
4\ Feb 25: a starved Gazan father shot in the abdomen by IDF soldiers at the Rasheed street while looking for food

His siblings found & rescued him before he bled to death on that street

His father gave this testimony on Feb 26
5\ Feb 24: the Red Crescent retrieves the bodies of two Gazans shot to death by IDF soldiers at the Rasheed street while desperately looking for food

The IDF shoots starving Gazans at that same spot (where the very very few aid trucks come from) every single day!

6\ Feb 23: A starved Gazan goes with his younger brother looking for food at the Rasheed street & returns with his brother in a bag on his back, shot by the IDF
7\ Feb 22: Al-Shifa hospital receives several Gazans wounded or killed by the IDF at the Rasheed street as they went desperately looking for food there
8\ Feb 19: IDF soldiers spraying bullets indiscriminately at starved Gazans at the Rasheed street as people came desperately looking for incoming food trucks
9\ Feb 18: A starved Gazan shot in the head by the IDF at the Rasheed street as he came looking for food.

His body is surrounded by the empty boxes of UN food packages

Again, this has been taking place virtually every single day for weeks in Northern Gaza; deliberate starvation Image

The burden of proof is on Israel to show evidence that these underground servers were used by Hamas for military purposes & NOT to store & secure the data of the local civil government & public universities to protect national data from Israel's periodic bombing of gov facilities
2\ Israel's claim is that the alleged tunnel under UNRWA's headquarters was a mere "data center" & NOT a military "command & control" centre or an attack tunnel

Israel needs to prove such data centre had a security/military value to be a legitimate target
3\ This data centre could possibly belong to the local civil government to store all important national data (government websites, health records, police records, schools records...etc.) to protect it from being bombed by the same IDF that burned down Gaza's national archive.

Israeli students chase their history teacher & yell at him "cancer" & "son of a whore" b/c he dared to humanize Gazan & Palestinian civilians

Meir Baruchin was fired from his job & jailed in solitary confinement last November for this, but was just reinstated by a labour court🧵
2\ These are some of the Facebook posts that got Israeli history teacher Meir Baruchin fired & jailed in solitary confinement & demonized in mainstream media👇

All for posting pictures of Palestinians killed by Israel with the caption "bombed/executed by our excellent guys".

3\ Baruchin continues to be the subject of so much hate & harassment for daring to humanize Gaza.

He says "Any Israeli who expresses any sentiment with the resident of Gaza or opposition to the harming of innocents knows that he'll undergo political persecution". Image

In pictures: Haaretz documents the rampant spread of weapons in Israel that is going out of control, thanks to Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir🧵

Imagine being a Palestinian citizen of Israel surrounded literally everywhere 24/7 by Israelis armed to the teeth ready to kill!

🚨Israel is holding thousands of Gazans hostage in the Sde Teiman "Concentration Camp" (as some Israelis call it)

Put in cages, starved, tied, blindfolded, tortured, per an IDF soldier that gave a harrowing testimony

Red Cross is NOT given ANY access to the site

Several died🧵 Photo source: Haaretz
2\ The IDF reservist gave his full testimony here in Hebrew:

"The detainees in the Sde Teiman compound are kept in sort of cages, about 70-100 detainees in each facility... aged 18 to around 60.

There's also a geriatric cage... I had seen people aged 75"
radiopublic.com/-WwV4dX/s1!6c8…
3\ The Gazan detainees are Sde Teiman "are seated in rows, without the ability to move. They are made to sit cross legged [in a tailor's posture], they are not allowed to speak, they are with an eye-cover on, & handcuffed; the entire time" the soldier testified

Israel’s founder begs to differ!
“We [Israelis] are the aggressors & [Palestinians] defend themselves. The country is theirs. They inhabit it”.

“If I were an Arab leader, I’d NEVER sign an agreement with Israel”

Ben Gurion would’ve been shocked by your shameless gaslighting!
Image
2\ The Arabs NEVER rejected peace in 1948

They repeatedly offered a 1 state solution with equal citizenship to all

Zionist leaders opted to create Israel, inc. by ethnic cleansing

Palestinians only rejected the partition of their homeland & losing 51% of it to a minority Image
3\ Zionism’s insistence on the creation of a Jewish state in an already inhabited land is the main problem here: It meant ethnic cleansing!

The 1920s Jewish intellectual movement Brit Shalom offered a viable alternative: a bi-national one state. Imagine if zionists had accepted!

My thoughts on the rape allegations🧵
I fully support an impartial international investigation & oppose out of hand denialism!

There's a range of crucial questions & uncertainties to answer (some raised by Israeli scholars) in order to make a "weaponization of rape" conclusion👇 Image
2\ Question 1: What is the compelling evidence alleged rape incidents were used as "a weapon of war"?

To establish "weaponization" of alleged rape rather than individual incidents, 2 prerequisites need to be fulfilled.

That it was *both*
a) Premeditated/instructed
b) Systematic Image
3\ The NYT article doesn't show any argument that the alleged rape was premeditated/instructed.

The authors did well to NOT cite any "confessions of rape" by detained Gazans in Israeli prisons b/c Israel's own Physicians for Human Rights dismissed them as extracted under torture Image
