🧡We Jews MUST sever all ties with the Israeli genocidal state. We must never allow ourselves to be implicated in its crimes against humanity. We must support armed resistance against it by Palestinans. We must demand that the US government cease all military aid permanently. 1/
2/ We must cut ties with rabbis, synagogues and communal groups supporting genocide. Otherwise we will ride down to the depths of Sheol with these monsters.

This is a thread summarizing my critique of Israeli government claims regarding the deaths of the Bibas family in Gaza.
1/8richardsilverstein.com/2025/02/22/isr…
It is important because it has ginned up outrage in Israel at the purported murder and mutilation of the bodies and resulted in Netanyahu's refusal to release 603 Palestinian prisoners, in violation of the ceasefire. I urge you to read the post:

2/8
1.The family has denounced the Israeli government and blames Netanyahu for the deaths of Shiri, Ariel & Kfir
2. the government has made claims about the nature of the deaths without offering any proof or the coroner's report.
3.

Thread: What and who is a Jew? I created this thread because of my concern regarding Zionist Jews who define Jewishness based on belief in Zionism. To them, anyone who rejects Zionism is no longer Jewish since the former is one of the most, or most critical factor...1/
2/ in Jewish identity.
To respond, I'll divide this into 2 categories: Judaism (religion) and Jewish identity. Judaism, including Jewish law (halacha) has criteria determining who is a Jew by birth: traditionally matrilineal descent. Reform has added patrilineal descent...
3/ as an additional criteria. Orthodox Judaism adds more criteria: observance of mitzvot (613 Commandments). Some declare that you cannot be a good Jew unless you are observant.
However, tradition makes no such distinction: you can be a Jew if you are 3/

This is a genome comparison between ancient Canaanite and surrounding peoples during and after the Bronze and Iron Age in the Levant. In response to Zionist DNA claims to indigeneity or continuity between ancient Israelites/Jews and contemporary Jews/Israelis... 1/ Image
2/ this is an eye-opening chart. It indicates that the closest grouping to ancient Canaanites are Arab Jews in descending order of genetic proximity:
Iraqi Jew
Syrian
Kurdish
Tunisian
Iranian
Libyan
Azeri
Chechen
Georgian
Sefardi
3/ As you can see, Ashkenazi Jews are outside this parameter. While we may have some genetic connection to ancient Israel, it is quite remote.
I don't think DNA or even indigeneity claims are very convincing. But since many Zionists do...

🧡Zionism-which once seem a viable, even necessary part of Jewish identity, has now reached a dead end. There are, of course, Jews who will cling to it either out of nostalgia or instinct. And Zionism itself will continue. But it has passed its sell-by date. 1/
2/ Genocide is not a feature that most Jews can accept as a legitimate|expression of Judaism. You have to choose. Either you're a Jew or a Zionist. But you can't be both.
Yes, many Jews will say otherwise. But they are living a contradiction.
3/ Over time, that contradiction will become more and more evident.
Of course it didn't have to be that way. If Zionism had chosen accomodation with the indigenous Paiestinian majority despite all the complications that involved,

Press Call on Humanitarian Aid for Gaza Ahead of the State of the Union | The White House
Following are critiques of main pts in this administration statement: 1/ whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
2/
1. US will build "port" off Gaza coast calling it "temporary pier." Aid will be offloaded on the coast, where presumably Israel will control its entrance to Gaza & further distribution via humanitarian NGOs.
3/
 2. Aid shipments will be shipped via Cypriot port with Israelis inspecting cargo & approving it.
3. US blames Hamas for refusing ceasefire deal, yet ignores its demand for return of refugees to northern Gaza. US claims they can't return w/o aid infrastructure.

🧡1/There are 2 seemingly contradictory Talmudic dicta relevant to Israel's genocidal policies. Israel uses 1 to defend itself; the other is barely known in this context.
2/ If you discover someone plans to kill you, you may "rise & kill him 1st." This is the slogan of the Mossad & its policy of targeted assassination, which has murdered 3000 Palestinian leaders & others since 1948.
3/ This appropriation of a Talmudic dictum deliberately ignores that *you*, the alleged victim have also tried to kill the murderer and his family and his people. So *he* has the same right as you to rise and kill *you* 1st.
