how do you split up families by releasing hostages? did they all re-marry already or something? nothing makes any sense

death to loving israel
death to its coward masters

i think they've been talking about releasing women/children so presumably it'd be families being released without the husband/father

That Palestine video is excellent, and the most hard-hitting image is this:


I actually thought that felt the most student film of the video; not because the shot is bad, it's an excellent, striking shot. But because no other part of the film has this tone of surrealistic debauchery. It hits you like a cement brick, but not in an "oh my god, my heart" way, rather a "woah, when did we cut to a USSR reel of yankee fat cats laughing at farmers". A director with stronger discipline would think "this shot kicks rear end, but it also stands out way too much" and make a decision to go more surreal or cut it.

Anyways, Death to Israel.

no, the west bank is there to be pacified, i just think that these attacks are terror measures to keep the west bank in line and not the starting stages of an eliminationist campaign like what it's reasonable to believe that we're seeing in gaza

well i think attacking fatah sends a message that no palestinian organization will be tolerated anywhere within israel, no matter how compromised and in service of israel. if there's no possibility of even a fatah type organization being allowed, that leaves an existential war for survival as the only option for the west bank. which could mean israel is trying to provoke a broader uprising in the west bank as an excuse to commit genocide.

yeah i didn't like the film much imo it relies on the viewer's sentimental affection for the palestinian cause to be effective. it gives me very zelensky circa summer of 2022 vibes

i mostly agree with the analysis, but there's a medium-term future and there's a right now. if you break the palestinian organisations on the west bank right now, it limits the danger of a palestinian uprising on the west bank right now.

where we differ is that i think that this is not necessarily as strong a signal about fatah as you say - it could be making an example to bring the organisation into line, or it could even be intervening in an internal fatah conflict. it could also be what you say, but i don't think it's the only valid interpretation here

Counterpoint: the Israeli government is a bunch of blood gargling Kahanist psychopaths who want to eliminate both Gaza and West Bank and don't care about opening infinite fronts so long as they get their lebensraum.

Fatah's armed wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, has been de facto split from Fatah itself for a long time, is functionally a separate organization now, and are fighting alongside Hamas as part of the Joint Operations Room

from the limited scale and impact of their attacks the impression I get is that they are pretty lightly armed, at least in the West Bank

the Palestinian Authority's security forces are still controlled by Fatah but Israel deliberately keeps them very lightly armed to ensure that they can never meaningfully challenge the Israelis, and they're mostly used in policing roles, beating up or shooting rubber bullets at their countrymen so the Israelis don't have to

yeah, there's a lot of possible explanations. i doubt fatah was doing anything that would be a substantial threat to israel, though. or even anything that israel might interpret that way.

there was a bunch of alleged PA security guys who were threatening abbas with a coup... a week? ago. it's very possible that militant fatah factions want to do an intifada and abbas is not in a strong position to stave them off on his own, for instance

There’s no running water or proper sewerage. Those toilets are rendered useless.

I'm pretty sure I've made this point already: it's amazing to me that the supposedly intractable dictators that we label our "enemies" see what's happening in Palestine so much clearer than the fossils governing the US. They call this out for what it is while almost no one in D.C (save for Rashida Tlaib and Ihlan Omar) is brave enough to even utter the word "ceasefire".

The same is no doubt true for "leadership" in the UK and Germany as well.

We live in the empire, and the empire is the baddies.
