🧵"Until Gaza is erased"
I'm sure many of you heard of genocidal hit song Harbu Darbu (20M views on YT), but I haven't seen almost any mention of another contemporary Israeli hit song, not as popular as HD ("only" 1.8M views), but the lyrics are actually worse: "Shager" (launch)
The word "Shager" (launch), comes from the phrase "2, 3, Shager". It refers to the countdown before a drone's missile launch. Phrase was popularized in Israel after a video released by IDF spokesperson went viral. There have been many cultural references to the phrase ever since.
"Knocking on rooftops" refers to the known IDF practice, of dropping a small bomb before dropping a larger bomb on a building. It's supposed to serve as sort of an evacuation warning.
"The 10 plagues" refers to the biblical 10 plagues of Egypt.
"Plague of the Firstborn" ("Death of the Firstborn") refers to the last Plague of Egypt, when every firstborn Egyptian - young/old/male/female and livestock - died simultaneously.
"For every flower of ours we handed them a bouquet" - "flower" is military codename for casualty.
"Who's Crazy?" refers to a popular Israeli military rallying cry. A soldier or a commander would ask "Who's crazy?" and the soldiers would shout collectively "I'm crazy!"
"We wanted to dance in nature" refers to the October 7th Nova rave, where 347 civilians were massacred.
"Hope is not yet lost" refers to a line from the Israeli national anthem, "HaTikva" ("The Hope").
"Doing fauda" (said in Arabic) seems to refer both to the Israeli action TV show Fauda and to the act of "doing fauda" itself (literally "making a mess/creating chaos")
"Sublime People" ("Am Sgula") is a phrase that refers to the concept of Jews as "The Chosen People".

🧵 I feel awful not replying to some people from Gaza who contact me for help with their campaigns, I just get so many messages and I can't find the time to always respond. So I'm gonna pin this running thread - every time you stop by my profile, please RT a campaign or donate.
🧵"If looks could kill, I wouldn't be here anymore. That's what I think when the two young Palestinians lift their heads up and look me straight in the eyes. There's so much open, blatant hatred in their gaze..."
Dana Spector is a long-time mainstream pseudo-journalist who normally writes personal columns and braindead lifestyle/feel-good pieces. A supposed "liberal". Yet with her column for Yedioth Ahronoth's last Friday's paper, about a mixed male-female battalion ("Panther Battalion) stationed in the West Bank village of Hableh, she managed to produce one of the most racist, demonizing and dehumanizing pieces I've seen, which, as you know, is not an easy feat in ZNazi Isra-hell.
Following are translated excerpts from her column, in the order they appear in the full piece. Link to the full column (in Hebrew) can be found at the end of this long thread.
Unless I mention otherwise, quotes are by the author.
In the photo: Dana Spector and Israeli soldiers in the home of a Palestinian family which was turned into an army command post.
(continues the first excerpt) "I admit, I'm scared now. Their gaze brings to mind the sentence that Liri Elbag said, how the most powerful thing she remembers from the terrible morning of October 7th were the looks of the terrorists when they entered the bomb shelter, "a look of pure evil." One of the guys is thin and bony, even from here I can see his noticeable Adam's apple. The other is muscular, wearing a black shirt with some kind of Arabic print, I wouldn't be surprised if it's Hamas merchandise. Until these two charming men gave me the look, I thought they were just two innocent residents sitting on the sidewalk and catching some sun."
Regarding the female soldiers: "A charming group of 20-something girls who constantly made me laugh. It wasn't until we started talking about what they do in their service that I realized that these weren't little girls, they were hardened fighting machines. They don't even blink when they are woken up at three in the morning and sent to raid a dark house to get the terrorists hiding there. Danger lurks for them and the boys who serve with them at every turn, even on the most routine patrols."
🧵Running thread of horrible shit from Israeli Telegram channels, following tonight's massacre.
On the Telegram channel of Judeo-Nazi influencer Yoav Eliasi ("The Shadow", 330k subscribers):
"Update from Gaza: the number of Nazis eliminated tonight is 350. May there be more"
🧵Israel's State Attorney's office announced today it will indict journalist Saeed Hassanain, a Palestinian citizen of Israel, on the charges of "contact with a foreign agent" and "publication of praise and encouragement to terrorism", following his interview on Al-Aqsa TV
Along with the State Attorney's announcement, the illegitimate Zionist court ruled that Hassanain will be remanded to jail pending trial. The despicable judge who made the ruling is Judge Ziad Salih, a Druze from the occupied Galilee.
Judge Salih wrote in his decision "There is a "dangerousness cause" [for which Hassanain should be remanded], in light of these troubled times, when terrorist organizations of various kinds operate against the state, and seek its harm, including perhaps its annihilation."
