1/ We have archived over 7,000 videos of the Israeli genocide.

Out of the 7,000 videos, we have categorized and published 4,757 videos (almost 70%). Image
2/ We categorize each video using several different taxonomies. You may view videos by location: Image
3/ You may filter videos by the type of target that Israel is attacking: Image
4/ You may filter videos by the type of weapon the IDF used to attack the target: Image
5/ You may filter videos by the military unit in the video: Image
6/ There are more filters, all accessible via the menu. Image
Image
7/ Many videos are grouped into an "event."

If you see an event linked next to a video, clicking the event title will filter videos specific to that event. Image
8/ Most videos have detailed archivist notes.

We try to find out every name from every massacre, and include the martyrs in our archivist notes.

Every life is an entire world and every martyr deserves to be remembered. Image
8/ Many hundreds of these videos are geolocated, almost all have exact dates.

We plan on creating an interactive map/timeline to let users explore the geolocated videos spatially and chronologically.

Geolocation is not publicly available yet. Image
9/ We also plan to build a rather sophisticated search engine, to assist researchers using our database. We already have this for our researchers.

This particular search, of the IDF massacring kids playing football, could be useful for researchers, or the FIFA campaign. Image
10/ Unfortunately, we must spend all of our free time begging @pressfreedom to stop being racist against Palestinian journalists instead of building more tools for researchers.

More here:
11/ We suspect that if our focus were on Iran or Russia, instead of Israel, Press Freedom would be using silly terms like "innovative collaborative, curatorial journalism" to describe our project.

Instead they ignore us.
12/ We know that CPJ has zero respect for our work, but we beg them to look beyond their disgust at people like us -- who think accountability must apply to everyone -- and visit this collection of archived videos:

Israel attacking journalists.
tiktokgenocide.com/targets/journa…
13/ We will post another update once we have archived 8,000 videos of the genocide.

Perhaps by then @CPJMENA will call it murder when Israel (using their signature "where's daddy" method of warfare) kills journalists in their homes with precision airstrikes.

1/ SOFT LAUNCH of our forced displacement Gaza Maps application. It works best on larger screens.

This tool lets you view forced displacement orders (FDOs) over time.

The primary feature is "filter by date range" (which I recommend starting with when building a map). Image
2/ You may click on a population block and view the forced displacement orders (FDOs) targeting that block over time (based on your filters). This includes if the block was labeled "safe."

Note: The last record will always be empty. That is the block itself, not a map. Image
3/ You may turn on or off layers in the map. Image

1/ Researchers: We have been methodically archiving them (link at bottom). 🧵

This Israeli is exactly correct about the horrific and criminal forced displacement maps. That's why we have been building tools to help researchers understand them. Image
2/ Databases for Palestine @databases4pal, maintains a public-facing archive of digital forced displacement maps the IDF puts out.

It is a near comprehensive database, which we are making entirely comprehensive by back-filling. Image
3/ We provide date rage filters to filter the maps by date range.

There is also an API, if you prefer to build your own tool with our data. Image

1/2 - The IDF did not recently order the "evacuation" (forced displacement) of Dr al-Najjar's home. That is a lie.
2/2 - The IDF previously issued 8 forced displacement orders targeting block 87.

But not for over a month.

Almost every "population block" in Gaza has been included in multiple maps. Months old maps are.
Here is every single forced displacement order for the past month, on a single map.

The house where the IDF massacred the doctors' children is not in any of them.

1/3 New quotes from Smotrich today are war crimes confessions.

Israel is drunk on impunity.

"Along the way, what remains of the Strip is also being wiped out, simply because everything there has become one big terror city." Image
2/3 - Targeting non-combatants. Smotrich:

"We are eliminating ministers, clerks, money changers, and key figures in Hamas' economic and administrative apparatus." Image
3/3 - There are 28 sourced Smotrich quotes archived at this direct link:

1/ This is MK Amit Halevi (Likud) on Israeli Channel 14.

"There is only one way to finish it, decisive victory. And by that I mean elimination or surrender [...]"

Let's explore some of Halevi's previous statements (🧵).

Translation: @ireallyhateyou
Video: 22 April.
2/ This quote comes from a Knesset Hearing, 16 October 2023.

"After we make it the land of Israel, Gaza should be left as a monument, like Sodom."

Sodom was a biblical city destroyed by God as punishment for its wickedness. Image
3/ "Now in Gaza there are only two types of Palestinians ... We can and must bomb both."

That was from an open letter MK Amit Halevi (Likud) published, addressed to US Secretary of State Blinken in November 2023. Image
