The whole unspoken goal of occupation though is that, as much as the status quo is untenable, if Israel holds on long enough, there will be a new status quo that can be defended on the grounds that changing it will be disowning innocent people again. Especially once all the refugees from 48 are dead. I don’t even necessarily disagree that that logic will hold in the future; I just think it makes it more urgent to do something soon (which also won’t happen)

The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind. But, on the contrary, they glorify us with this epithet; it is an honor for us to be Stalinists.

This reminds me of probably the single most incredible argument I occasionally see from supporters of Zionism: that Palestinian refugees need to "get over" what happened "so long ago" (i.e. still within living memory) and just identify as citizens of Jordan/Syria/etc. and stop all this "Palestine" stuff.

This coming from people propounding a narrative of two thousand years of exile and perseverance.

"Without justice for the Palestinians there will be no peace in the Middle East."
You tend to see a lot of MEMRI stuff roaming the Internet, so I feel it's only responsible to spend some more time and effort looking at what's being said, currently, across Israeli media and politics. I'll update this with screenshots if it gets deleted.

First tweet in thread is by Israel Hayom (large free daily) political reporter, Yehuda Schlesinger. He also appears on Israeli news TV etc. The Tweet has a video of the girl with her brother trapped under rubble and says:

"In what delusional, disgusting and crazy culture does a little girl, buried in rubble, think that she will only be helped if she becomes a servant?!

Horrible."

The girl is actually saying a common phrase in Syria, the equivalent of "I will be at your service". This is pointed out in a next Tweet by Fadi who implores Yehuda to delete the Tweet and says "If you've even had a whiff of a Syrian accent you will know this phrase".

Yehuda responds by saying by essentially asking "What's the problem with saying there's child abuse in this culture?".

----

This is a modern form of blood libel following the common format in Israel of: "Arabs do not love their children as we do. Arabs exploit and abuse children as nothing. Their culture is disgusting. [We are forced, therefore to kill them]."

Oh, there is some weapons grade incitement to race war going on. This from Arutz Sheva (the settler news network) in an op-ed blaming the Huwara pogrom on Likud for not being anti-Palestinian enough (so the settlers had to do it themselves, I guess?)

quote:

If the terrorist gets neutralized before trial, and certainly if he has been executed, hold the corpse in custody until all Israeli prisoners of Hamas are freed. Include a pig in each terminated terrorist’s morgue drawer. Publicize to prospective Arab murderers that each of their bodies will lie with a pig corpse, perhaps for years, perhaps forever, depending on Hamas.

quote:

But remember: the rioters did the wrong thing. They all should be given fair trials and, if convicted, should be given suspended sentences and promise not to do it again.

This exception also applies in Judaism, and in neither religion would it apply to this ghastly threat because proximity to a pig is not itself prohibited. If there's any Sharia issue here it's the indefinite postponement of the body's proper Muslim burial.

It's not supposed to be "haha we are making you violate your religion via your corpse," just a grievous cultural insult (more grievous because it functions in both cultures) and very literal dehumanization.

I know that these types of bullets were previously advertised with the idea that the shooter is making a Muslim violate the pork prohibition so there's an aspect of sadism in it.

Yeah but that was a US thing at the height of post-9/11 melting down. Huge goyim thing.

As a jew, even non-practicing, first thing I think of hearing that of israeli jews is "folks you have to know that isn't how it works"

Second is, "well, not that surprising, bigots gonna bigot"

Idk about devout muslims but in the Talmud I'm pretty sure it says "don't breed pigs to be safe" but like you could have a pet pig and give it all the cuddles and be fine, and that's before people murdering you shoving pig carcass into your morgue slot. Why are these jews even having all these pig carcasses?

You would think Jews would know from just, like, introspection that pork-fat bullets wouldn't deter the IDF. Are they going to hand over Jerusalem if Muslims start pelting them with water balloons filled with bacon grease?

It's just pure racial hatred. I mean it was when Americans did it too, but here they don't even have the Americans' excuse of being so stupid they could really think pork is Muslim kryptonite

I'd laugh if the ad were placed, for example, by Satmar Jews, who reject the legitimacy of Israel on religious grounds. I disagree with that group on a number of levels, but I don't think there's any way to claim they are either anti-Semitic and/or not Jewish.

Oh, zionists will find a way. I took some photos of a protest that some of the Neturei Karta bigwigs attended. Some of the comments they were getting from zionists were heartbreaking; one older woman stuck her finger in this young guy's face and said "you should have been sent to the gas chambers first" or something to that effect. It really is just about using religion as a cover for hatred.

judging from the words of that (translated and also mostly paywalled) haaretz article the air force pilots are protesting the governments judicial reform, right? the article said the word the pilots used was "coup" which is language ive seen in english language reporting.

I don't know how much people in this thread pay attention to any of the other politics going on in Israel, but even aside from the whole crimes against humanity thing, Israel's national politics seem to be pretty much a trashfire.

Basically the current "controversial judicial reform" is getting rid of judicial review, which is one of the key aspects of an independent judiciary, and an independent judiciary is kind of one of the core aspects of the concept of modern democracy. Trying to gut it is a pretty big deal, and a severe powergrab. Part of the deal is even giving Netanyahu's party the authority to appoint judges, which is big because they have a very shaky hold on the legislation otherwise, so it gives a new dimension to how much they can control the country's government.

Put it into even more specific contest, Netanhayu is just a really corrupt guy (bribes, fraud, that kind of thing), he bounced out of office last time on charges of corruption, and he only narrowly squeaked out of those charges on a plea deal (that I think he's currently in violation of?). He has a lot to gain by gutting the judiciary so he doesn't have to risk legal consequences again. Netanyahu also has a number of similarly corrupt allies that have the same to gain from gutting the judiciary.

I think I've seen other headlines of people associated with the army protesting or indicating that they don't support the reform or might go against the government if they go through with it. It seems like good odds of some kind of poo poo kicking off if Netanyahu doesn't back down, but god knows what form that would take.
