    I just want to point out how to many people, the crimes against the Palestinians aren’t legitimate until the story is told by an Israeli. The way Israeli voices are viewed as credible while Palestinian voices are suspicious is one of the most pervasive consequences of the colonial project.

    I don’t mean to criticize these filmmakers for their identities or imply their project is bad. I’m saying that all of the coverage of this leans heavily on their identities as a mark and sign of authenticity and repute. Compare to the Arab journalists who literally died to bring you this same story.

    Reminder of the irony of the term:

    NAZA is a military acronym derived from the Hebrew term nezek agavi,[4] and is used by the Israeli Defense Force to indicate the number of civilians expected to be killed in an airstrike as collateral damage, also known as Non-combatant casualty value

    Ironic that the Israeli government uses a term that many people will confuse with “NAZI”.

    The Israeli Supreme Court ruled in 2022 that the government can revoke an Israeli person’s nationality if they fail to show “loyalty,” including through acts that are found to be treasonous. The interior minister must submit a revocation request to the justice minister and judges must also validate the revocation.

    Just apartheid state things.

    The entire co concept of Zionist state is based on genocide. Not sure what these people expect when they realize this system for what it is. Every human coming from another country should pack their stuff and leave before it is too late.

      They literally want to go Old Testament on people, and we should kind of be above that by now.

      There are a lot of progressive Israelis that are fully on board with what us in the West are saying about the genocide.

      You don’t get to hear them much but there is definitely resistance. Thank god.
