What Israel is doing in the West Bank is directly related to what it’s doing in Gaza.
The practices might be different but the goal is the same: to finish its ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
I want to share with you a video I just filmed.
In it, I talk about international law, military occupation, colonisation, and ethnic cleansing as the basic context we have to know — and actively point to its absence in the mainstream media.
I also mention different Israeli state policies of depopulation that are very much real, just like the military occupation itself: house demolitions, military raids, a system of military checkpoints, and the expansion of settlements.
I invite you to notice how basic context can be intentionally omitted in the mainstream media when Israel’s brutal military occupation mechanisms are being described.
Since my podcast is still taking a symbolic break, I invite you to listen to my most recent episode below.
As always: stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
