Wenn man denkt, die Nachricht ist schon entsetzlich genug, kommen noch mehr unglaubliche Details ans Licht, siehe dieser Artikel im #guardian

Deutsche Staatsräson sollte es sein, die Menschenwürde zu schützen und Kriegsverbrechen - von wem auch immer verübt - anzuprangern. Punkt.

At this point I'm starting to believe the primary purpose of the sham ceasefire in Gaza, broken by Israel to continue a US-backed genocide of Palestinian people, was to allow US corporate media to catch its breath and reset to a position of trying very hard to ignore blatant war crimes against clearly innocent Palestinians. A United Nations investigation has revealed that the IDF executed 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers, including a UN employee, in March 23rd; then tried to bury the evidence, including crushed ambulances, to hide this crime against humanity. Details of the murders make it clear that this activity was deliberate, and yet the portions of the mainstream western media that remain firmly pro-genocide have hardly registered any sort of outcry or calls for action.

Israel killed 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers one by one, says UN

“Seven days ago, civil defence and PRCS ambulances arrived at the scene,” the head of Ocha in Palestine, Jonathan Whittall, said in a video statement. “One by one, [the paramedics and civil defense workers] were hit, they were struck. Their bodies were gathered and buried in this mass grave.

“We’re digging them out in their uniforms, with their gloves on. They were here to save lives. Instead, they ended up in a mass grave,” Whittall said. “These ambulances have been buried in the sand. There’s a UN vehicle here, buried in the sand. A bulldozer – Israeli forces bulldozer – has buried them.”

Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the UN relief agency for Palestinian refugees, Unrwa, said that one of its employees was among the dead found in Rafah."

As an American, please let me once again remind you that none of these atrocities would be happening without US financial, material, and diplomatic support. We're subsidizing the Israeli government, we're shipping the IDF the bombs and weapons being used to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza, and it is by US diplomatic force that Western support for Israel even as it commits a genocide, remains strong, if somewhat less overt than it was at the start of this genocide. Trump (and Biden before him) could end this inhuman slaughter today if he wanted to; he just doesn't want to because killing brown people and taking their resources (beachfront property and natural gas, in this case) is a important business activity for the entire Pig Empire.

In an environment where the media is actively cultivating a numb complicity, and western states are either ignoring the massacres, or as in the Trump regime's case, openly celebrating them, it behooves all of us in the so-called West to reject these attempts to rewind time and protect the genocide. In the months leading up to the ceasefire, Western political leaders and media were on the backfoot as independent media, folks with Tik Tok accounts, protestors, and even everyday people refused to accept the complicity of silence and demanded action. This "reset" must not be allowed to continue while Palestinians in Gaza are murdered with impunity and the complicity of the larger Pig Empire; as noted by Ahmed Moor writing in the Guardian - which is sadly where I have to get my mainstream news about a US-back genocide the Trump administration is happily paying for, because US media outlets are still trying to pretend none of this is real:

Israel executes unarmed Red Crescent paramedics with the west’s blessing

"Nor will global leaders intervene to end the mass murder which has been punctuated by this latest obscenity. Some of them – such as Emmanuel Macron, who called for a ceasefire, might appear to want to end the slaughter. After all, dead babies in incubators and paramedics in a mass grave are unpleasant garlands to wear. But 18 months in, they are too deeply implicated. Who can forget Ursula von der Leyen’s embrace of Netanyahu? Or Keir Starmer’s affirmation of Israel’s “right” to starve Palestinians in Gaza?

Today, those who are tasked with upholding international law have been co-opted by the Israeli leadership, whether they like it or not. The logic of gangland drug dealers and criminals – new members commit crimes to join, and are locked in – prevails.

So far from being complicit, US and European leaders are the authors of this latest atrocity by their Israeli colleagues in Gaza."

Vigil number 70

We hold our seventieth vigil this Saturday 5th April

April 2025

The 70th vigil is to be held in Salisbury on Saturday 5th April starting at 5pm the market place near the Library. We none of us thought when we started over a year ago that we would still be holding these every Saturday come rain or shine.

This week’s news is especially awful with yet more Palestinian medical staff found dead and buried in a shallow grave in southern Gaza at least one with his hands tied. They were in clearly marked medical vehicles entering what was supposed to be a safe zone.

The programme about the West Bank on ITV the other evening was unpleasant viewing. It showed a settler gradually invading Palestinian land. What was shocking was his contempt for them and spoke in terms of clearing them away. He stopped next to some newly planted olive trees on their land and said he wasn’t going to clear them away now because the camera was on but it was obvious he would be back later.

West Bank violence is increasing, Haaretz has reported on a large number of attacks, with livestock killed or stolen and a boy in charge of a flock was recently murdered by settlers they believe. IDF soldiers are seen standing by while settlers throw stones and carry out their attacks.

Please come and support our vigil. It will not make a big difference of course and the majority walk by without pausing even a moment. But we can but try …

#Palestine / Whistleblower account: in Gaza, almost every IDF platoon keeps a human Shield, a sub-army of Palestinian slaves

Israel's use of Palestinian civilians as human shields in #Gaza is a serious violation of international law. According to a whistleblower account, the practice has become systematic throughout #IDF operations, with almost every platoon forcing Palestinians to enter and clear houses ahead of soldiers—a practice called "mosquito protocol."

Despite being exposed in media months ago, the practice reportedly continued with knowledge of senior military leadership. While the IDF has opened six investigations, the officer claims this barely scratches the surface of a widespread practice that endangers innocent civilians primarily to save time rather than increase troop safety.

#Australia needs to remove #Hamas from Australia's "Listed #terrorist organisations", we need to stop endorsing Israel's attacks on CIVILIAN government run essential services in Gaza.

Israel see our "terrorist" designation of the entire Hamas moment as endorsement of their treatment of civilian emergency services as military targets – paramedics, firemen, and other people who save lives – because they are "Hamas" by being connected to government run services in Gaza.

At the very least Australia need to narrow the listing to the #Qassam Brigades militant wing of the Hamas movement. But even this would be difficult to justify. Hamas are NOT a threat to Australia, and the #IDF have killed more Australian citizens than Hamas in the current war, including a civilian from #Sydney in #Lebanon and an Australian aid worker in Gaza.

It is insane that we have condemned an entire, mostly civilian, government as #terrorists while allowing Likud – the successor party to the #Irgun and #Lehi terror groups – to drive #Israel into #genocidal fascism without equivalent consequences.

The Lehi and Irgun were definitively #terrorists – Likud first formed government under former Irgun commander Menachem Begin and his successor was former Lehi commander Yitzhak Shamir – but really the Lehi and Irgun were nowhere near as bad as the IDF.

Lo abbiamo fatto per mesi, seguendo la procedura di ingresso corretta che prevedeva l'invio di un robot, di un drone o di un cane.
Questa procedura si è dimostrata valida, ma richiedeva tempo e il comando voleva risultati immediati.

Abbiamo costretto i palestinesi a fare da scudi umani non perché fosse più sicuro per le truppe #IDF, ma perché era più veloce.
Ecco perché rischiamo la vita di palestinesi che non sono sospettati di nulla se non di trovarsi nel posto sbagliato al momento sbagliato.

Non è avvenuto senza ostacoli. Soldati e ufficiali hanno opposto resistenza.
Io ho opposto resistenza.
Ma è quello che succede quando il comando superiore se ne frega e i politici ancora meno.

Questo è ciò che accade quando si è veloci nel premere il grilletto e si è oberati al massimo dal punto di vista operativo. ⬇️6

Report: "We operate a sub-army of slaves"

The Israeli army uses Gazans "at least six times a day" as human shields ("shawishes")

In "this insane, unofficial procedure.... almost every platoon keeps a ‘shawish’, and no infantry force enters a house before a ‘shawish’ clears it.

"This means there are four ‘shawishes’ in a company, twelve in a battalion, and at least 36 in a brigade."

Human shielding in action’: Israelis strapped a palestinian to a jeep bonnet

People acting like Goldbergt is some kind of hero posting the "war plans" of Trump regime to media, forgetting that he was, is and always be an apologist for IDF crimes and didn't think IDF is commiting war crime and the reports about their crimes are antisemitic.

"Goldberg was an ardent apologist for the Israeli Defense Forces and attacking accounts of Israeli atrocities in Gaza. He suggested such accounts were overblown or that Hamas was responsible because it was using civilians as human shields or that anti-Semitic Westerners were exaggerating the situation. In one post, he linked to this “very funny” satirical interview about an “NGO that uses an ostensible human-rights agenda as camouflage for an anti-Zionist, anti-Semitic program.”

And he wrote, “I don’t think Israel is committing war crimes. Israel is fighting an enemy that intentionally seeks to kill civilians; in the course of fighting Hamas, Israel does some stupid and brutal things, but, by Andrew’s standard, every act of self-defense by a Western nation against Islamist insurgents is a war crime.”

Even now Goldberg is busy apologizing for Israeli actions. The Haaretz revelations show Israeli soldiers behaving “like Cossacks,” but his item makes sure to note that the “world media, generally speaking, doesn’t like Israel very much, and stacks the deck against it,” while the “goal of Hamas is to murder innocent people; the goal of the IDF is to avoid murdering innocent people.”

Even after Haaretz reported CLEAR proof of Israeli war crime and their INTENTION to commit war crime, he responded with

"Based on the Haaretz stories, the IDF didn’t work too hard to avoid killing civilians."
