It’s just heartbreaking. I’ve seen videos on twitter that are beyond anything I can even begin to describe. Palestinians are being murdered in their thousands and the western media is largely pretending it’s not happening.

The average age of the people who have been killed in Gaza is FIVE years old.

The UK media are not showing how the Israeli government is openly talking about, and cheerleading genocide now. Israeli government speaks about Palestinians as if they are not humans. They are saying women are targets as they can have babies. I’ve just read how, since October 7th they have taken over 5,000 Palestinians from the West Bank and tortured them. They were already routinely arresting Palestinians and taking them away from their family with no reason and no but this is not being adequately reported.

Please, please visit sites such as 972 magazine and declassified uk. The BBC, etc, unfortunately aren’t reporting the extent to what is going on.

Israel and its allies are repurposing the goals and lies of 1948 – in Gaza in 2023

Israel is openly carrying out ethnic cleansing inside Gaza, driving Palestinians outside their homeland as happened in 1948. And yet, just as during the first “Nakba”, Israel's lies and deceptions dominate the West’s media and political narrative.

Everyone can see what it is. Smashing the country and its people out of existence. Making claims that often can't be checked.

Some people just don't care.

marmaladeandpeanutbutter · 02/12/2023 11:55

@beigecartoon that's a great cartoon. It's been the case since Trump that calling out clearly horrible, fucked up and right wing behaviour gets you called 'woke', or, worse, that the tables are turned to appear to allow perpetrators to name themselves as the victim. It's just word and mind games, and gaslighting.

@marmaladeandpeanutbutter it is great! the artist has loads more here: https://www.instagram.com/elisegravel/
I think they have been spending time on this board, all her cartoons are so on point in reflecting the narrative :)

Thank you

My goodness if they have been on MN, I have a good idea of which threads inspired them! Although I suppose the attempts to silence people are universal, unfortunately.

@Kindatired very on point, thanks for sharing.

The hate speech cartoon sums up the upside down world we’re living in these days, thanks for sharing.

Are you serious
An entire people has been boxed in and are near annihilation by Israel
People are saying their goodbyes on social media
That's all you have to say? You are so driven by hate and rancour that you forgot you are a human and you clearly don't know anything about any of the people you have mentioned.

@Chaitales Not to mention the prejudiced assertion that all Irish people are "brainwashed".

Ikeasucks · 03/12/2023 09:19

Maybe you are driven by hate. Are you saying Hamas (and many Palestinians) wouldn’t wipe out Israel and Jews if they had the means? You can feel for the awful plight of Palestinian civilians in Gaza and be honest about what Hamas is about.

I’ve reported the comment for hate speech. But taking into account what we’ve seen in the last days and the feedback we have received I guess it’s only a hate speech to say “Israelians are brainwashed” but not any other nationality

beigecartoon · 03/12/2023 09:24

@Ikeasucks derailing is against MN Rules. Please do start a thread elsewhere if you'd like to. This thread is about the genocide of Palestinians, this is being carried out by Israel. Nobody is saying Hamas are not an issue, but Israeli govt has a racist, genocidal agenda towards Palestinians. And they oppress Palestinians, kill them, torture them and taunt them on a daily basis for decades. And have killed thousands of innocent children and people unnecessarily in a cruel war. Please start a thread about Hamas elsewhere if you'd like to discuss that.

Thank you @EasterIssland I reported it too.

Ikeasucks · 03/12/2023 09:27

Ok - “indoctrinated” then as i was growing up in an Irish catholic community who saw Palestinians as innocent brave freedom fighters (like themselves) against the evil colonising Israelis. When it’s all a lot more complicated than that. But sheesh - there you go reporting any voice you disagree with. Pathetic authoritarians

beigecartoon · 03/12/2023 09:29

@Ikeasucks it's racist to say all Irish people are brainwashed, as you said in your earlier post. Hence reporting you. Admit prejudice for what it is. And next time think more carefully when choosing your words.

Make your own thread about indoctrinated Irish and evil Palestinians then.
And pray that one day your people aren't suddenly turned on for political purposes with global calls for annihilation. It's happened before to various people - Congo, slavery, Holocaust, Rwanda, Bosnia - don't be on your high horse that it won't happen again. And remember when you decided to be on the wrong side of history and played a part in cheering on one mass murder.

It's good they are showing us who they really are inside.

beigecartoon · 03/12/2023 09:34

@Chaitales exactly. As if every Irish person can't see for themselves and make their own minds up as to what is injustice or not. Nope, they're all just "brainwashed". Sheesh.
