When I use translation software it's either to double check my extremely bad Spanish, to use simple common words to try to communicate and to get the basic outline of another language text. I do my best to try to work around the shortcomings. Using translation software on Yu-Gi-Oh cards is wildly inaccurate and there isn't even that much to them compared to a lot of other things you'd want to use it for!

A little bit of tech literacy could go a long way I feel....

Some odd jokes to share, from a Pregnancy Q and A sheet:

Q: Should I have a baby after 35?
A: No, 35 children is enough

Q: I'm two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?
A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.

Q: What is the most reliable method to determine a baby's sex?
A: Childbirth

Q: My childbirth instructor says it's not pain I'll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right?
A: Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.

Q: Do I have to have a baby shower?
A: Not if you change the baby's diaper very quickly

NATO’s Failed War on Russia


It’s obviously not a proxy war when literally thousands of soldiers from #NATO #countries have been #killed inside undisputed Russian territory. The Russians released a report on bodies recovered from the #Kursk incursion; these are #fatalities, not casualties.

In just a few months, NATO lost nearly as many soldiers as the so-called ā€œCoalition of the Willingā€ did in eight years of invading and occupying Iraq. The USA didn’t lose a proxy war in Ukraine, it lost an actual war; remember, these are just the fatalities from one single Ukrainian offensive.

šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ If Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives win the federal election, they will move at lightening speed to shrink the size of public service.

The American and Argentinian right-wing governments have used a similar approach to reduce public spending and regulation by eradicating whole government agencies and departments.

JD Vance: My message to Europe - UnHerd


#politics #USA #imperialism

ā€œIt’s not good for Europe to be the permanent security vassal of the United States.ā€ So says JD Vance during a phone conversation with UnHerd on Monday, his first major interview with a European outlet since taking office as Vice President. The backdrop is a week of turmoil on financial markets triggered by President Trump’s ā€œLiberation Dayā€ tariffs.

The decision to apply (and then partially rescind) hefty tariffs on European allies — combined with a barrage of harsh statements about Europe from Vance, both public ones and leaked private messages — has left many on the Continent wondering whether America can still be thought of as a friend.

Vance’s answer: yes, provided European leaders are prepared to assume a more independent role on the international stage, and to be more responsive to their own voters, especially when it comes to the question of immigration.

ā€œI love Europe,ā€ Vance tells me in a wide-ranging interview from his office in the West Wing, showcasing a diplomatic side that has not always been front and centre. ā€œI love European people. I’ve said repeatedly that I think that you can’t separate American culture from European culture. We’re very much a product of philosophies, theologies, and of course the migration patterns that came out of Europe that launched the United States of America.ā€

Europe’s leaders are a different matter. Take Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, who, in a recent interview with the American TV programme 60 Minutes, charged Vance with ā€œsomehow justifyingā€ Russia’s invasion of his country.

Vance counters this by referring to his condemnations of Moscow’s actions since 2022. But he adds: ā€œI’ve also tried to apply strategic recognition that if you want to end the conflict, you have to try to understand where both the Russians and the Ukrainians see their strategic objectives. That doesn’t mean you morally support the Russian cause, or that you support the full-scale invasion, but you do have to try to understand what are their strategic red lines, in the same way that you have to try to understand what the Ukrainians are trying to get out of the conflict.ā€

ā€œI think it’s sort of absurd for Zelensky to tell the [American] government, which is currently keeping his entire government and war effort together, that we are somehow on the side of the Russians.ā€ That kind of rhetoric, Vance says, ā€œis certainly not productiveā€.

Beyond Ukraine, the American Vice President worries that European leaders are still failing to reckon with 21st-century realities on immigration, integration, and security.

ā€œIt’s not good for Europe to be the permanent security vassal of the United States.ā€

Vance says: ā€œWe’re very frustrated — ā€˜we’ meaning me, the President, certainly the entire Trump administration — that European populations keep on crying out for more sensible economic and migration policies, and the leaders of Europe keep on going through these elections, and keep on offering the European peoples the opposite of what they seem to have voted for.ā€

Immigration is at the heart of Vance’s palpable frustration with European leaders. He argues that, as in the United States, open-borders policies handed down from on high are poisonous to democratic trust. As Vance notes, ā€œthe entire democratic project of the West falls apart when the people keep on asking for less migration, and they keep on being rewarded by their leaders with more migration.ā€

Europe’s other blind spot, Vance says, is security. ā€œThe reality is — it’s blunt to say it, but it’s also true — that Europe’s entire security infrastructure, for my entire life, has been subsidised by the United States of America.ā€ As recently as a quarter-century ago, ā€œyou could say that Europe had many vibrant militaries, at least militaries that could defend their own homelandsā€.

Fast-forward to today, Vance says, and ā€œmost European nations don’t have militaries that can provide for their reasonable defenceā€. True, ā€œthe British are an obvious exception, the French are an obvious exception, the Poles are an obvious exception. But in some ways, they’re the exceptions that prove the rule, that European leaders have radically underinvested in security, and that has to change.ā€

Vance’s message to the Continent, he says, is the same one delivered by Charles de Gaulle at the height of the Cold War, when the French president insisted on a healthy dose of independence from Washington. De Gaulle ā€œloved the United States of America, but [he] recognised what I certainly recognise, that it’s not in Europe’s interest, and it’s not in America’s interest, for Europe to be a permanent security vassal of the United Statesā€.

What the Vice President had not made clear before this interview is that he would prefer to see a strong and independent Europe precisely because it could then act as a better check against the foreign-policy missteps of the Americans.

He says: ā€œI don’t think that Europe being more independent is bad for the United States — it’s good for the United States. Just going back through history, I think — frankly — the British and the French were certainly right in their disagreements with Eisenhower about the Suez Canal.ā€

Vance also alludes to his own experience as a combat veteran of the Iraq War. ā€œSomething I know a little bit more personally: I think a lot of European nations were right about our invasion of Iraq. And frankly, if the Europeans had been a little more independent, and a little more willing to stand up, then maybe we could have saved the entire world from the strategic disaster that was the American-led invasion of Iraq.ā€

Bottom line: ā€œI don’t want the Europeans to just do whatever the Americans tell them to do. I don’t think it’s in their interest, and I don’t think it’s in our interests, either.ā€

Talking about the UK specifically, Vance puts great emphasis on the place it occupies in the affections of President Trump — with a trade deal highly likely as a result.

ā€œWe’re certainly working very hard with Keir Starmer’s governmentā€ on a trade deal, Vance says. ā€œThe President really loves the United Kingdom. He loved the Queen. He admires and loves the King. It is a very important relationship. And he’s a businessman and has a number of important business relationships in [Britain]. But I think it’s much deeper than that. There’s a real cultural affinity. And of course, fundamentally America is an Anglo country.ā€ Thus, ā€œI think there’s a good chance that, yes, we’ll come to a great agreement that’s in the best interest of both countriesā€.

Other European states are likely to reach new trade arrangements too, though the climb might be steeper. Already, ā€œwith the United Kingdom, we have a much more reciprocal relationship than we have with, say, Germany… While we love the Germans, they are heavily dependent on exporting to the United States but are pretty tough on a lot of American businesses that would like to export into Germany.ā€

The administration’s lodestar will be ā€œfairnessā€, Vance says. ā€œI think it will lead to a lot of positive trade relationships with Europe. And again, we very much see Europe as our ally. We just want it to be an alliance where Europeans are a little more independent, and our security and trade relationships are gonna reflect that.ā€

As financial markets have whipsawed in recent weeks, it has not been clear what success looks like from the administration’s point of view. I ask Vance how he will judge the tariff policy in the long term. ā€œWhat we want to see is lower trade deficits, really across the board,ā€ says Vance. ā€œSometimes, a trade deficit makes sense. Like, America doesn’t produce bananas. So obviously, we’re gonna be importing bananas, not exporting bananas. So with certain product categories and maybe even with some countries, a small trading deficit can be justified.ā€

The status-quo system as a whole, however, is intolerable from the White House’s point of view. ā€œWhat the global trading system has led to,ā€ complains Vance, ā€œis large and persistent trade deficits across product categories, with the gross majority of countries really using the United States [home market] to absorb their surplus exports. That’s been bad for us. It’s been bad for American manufacturers. It’s been bad for workers. And God forbid, if America ever fought a future war, it would be bad for America’s troops.ā€

But before he became a politician, Vance was a venture capitalist. Has he had heart-sinking moments watching his own portfolio sink into the red in recent weeks? He sounds unfazed.

ā€œAny implementation of a new system is fundamentally going to make financial markets jittery,ā€ says Vance. ā€œThe President has been very consistent that this is a long-term play… Now, of course, you have to be responsive to what the business community is telling you, what workers are telling you, what bond markets are telling you. These are all variables that we have to be responsive toā€ in order to ā€œmake the policy successfulā€.

But Vance says the administration can’t govern for the stock market alone. ā€œNo plan is, you know, going to be implemented perfectly… We’re very cognisant of the fact that we live in a complicated world where nobody else’s decisions are static. But the fundamental policy is to rebalance global trade, and I think the President has been very clear and persistent on that.ā€

Even as adjustments and delays to tariffs seem to have soothed markets and allies, for now, the Trump administration is bent on applying its brand of shock therapy 2.0 to the international system. The goal, of course, is nearly the diametrical opposite of the original therapy: while shock therapy 1.0 goaded the world to follow America into adopting neoliberal globalisation and to follow Washington on its military adventures, this one is aimed at reversing both outcomes.

Yet it can be no less discomfiting to live through the change — not just in the policy orientation, but how it’s communicated: not least by a very-online Millennial Vice President who revels in online debate. Does he think he tweets too much? Eyebrows were certainly raised in Europe when he took the time to get into a Twitter dispute with podcaster Rory Stewart.

Vance laughs. ā€œThere are many blessings to this job. One unquestioned downside is that I very much live in a bubble. I’m surrounded by Secret Service agents. It’s very hard for a random person to walk up to me — in fact, it’s damned-near impossible. I see social media as a useful, albeit imperfect, way to stay in touch with what’s going on in the country at large… I probably spend way less time on Twitter than I did six months ago, and that’s probably good for me.ā€

All told, the Trump-Vance administration’s commitment to turning the page on globalisation as we knew it runs deeper than allies and adversaries alike might imagine. As Vance says: ā€œWe’re not on anybody’s side, we’re on America’s side.ā€

So why is Microsoft insisting on pushing out a feature it is very clear users just do not want? What is the point of it? It just does not make any sense. Recall makes no sense. It is one of rather many functions that Microsoft wants to force people into using.

Personally I also do not want Copilot on my computer and the idea that there can be a key on my keyboard that I can press that will enable by mistake it is not what I would think most people want.

I believe that there should be a very clear line between what is on your computer and what is in the cloud. Forcing people to log into a Microsoft online account to use their computer is crazy. Having people mistakenly enabling OneDrive is another disaster.

I guess this is all a great opportunity for Linux.

i say future proof. partly for the reason you mentioned, that any old (or new) browser can deal with html/css. i also think its more democratic in that its resource friendly for slow machines/connections. then again... if the fancy toold you are using are all server side and the visitor just gets markup code, then thats not too big of a deal.
but i would hate to be (back) in the pocket of cloudflare or any other corpo for my own website. as it stands, the only thing between me and masses right now is the isp and if anyone has a solution for that i'm all ears šŸ˜›

@kel had a brilliant suggestion of publishing it as an ebook in order to be future proof. Since I’m already converting markdown to html it wouldn’t be much more difficult to also convert it into markup that can generate an ebook. And that ebook could be an epub, pdf, or html.

I’ll also likely have full text RSS too 😁

I was chatting with a male friend about the financial disaster the pandemic has been for me, and he responded by suggesting I start an OnlyFans.

- It's not easy money, it's hard work. (I know lots of people who have OF.)
- "Adult content work" comes with risks & dangers that most cis het guys are ignorant about. As well as stigma.
- They'd never suggest this to a guy.
- They'd never start one themself.

So: naive, bad advice that does not yield money & increases peril.

WTH.

Back to my friend (who is a good guy overall) and his "advice":

When guys say this to me, which they do with alarming frequency, I try to graciously explain to them the gist of this thread, plus some detail about online censorship, payment processor abuse, etc. Based on the energy I have in that instant and the nature of the relationship, I treat it as a teachable moment as best I can. If I get it right, the guy walks away with more understanding and respect for OF artists. I try my best. 5/n

Un Occidental vivant en #Chine sur #Twitter :

"Chaque jour, sur Twitter, j'informe les gens que je vis en #Chine depuis 25 ans et que j'ai une famille chinoise. Et que sur tous nos rƩseaux sociaux chinois, en mandarin, des millions de commentaires critiquent le gouvernement chinois.
Après avoir informé les gens de cette précieuse information qu'ils ignoraient auparavant, au lieu de dire « Oh, merci Mario, je ne savais pas », les têtus persistent à dire qu'ils ont raison et me traitent de menteur. Quel que soit le sujet lié à la Chine, quand je leur dis qu'il n'y a pas de génocide des #Ouïghours, pas de travail forcé, pas de violations des droits de l'homme, pas d'oppression religieuse, c'est toujours pareil.

En termes empathiques, ce n'est pas grave, car je comprends qu'il soit extrêmement difficile de débrancher votre cerveau de la matrice de lavage de cerveau dans laquelle vous avez été amené à croire ces choses fausses sur la Chine et sur beaucoup d'autres choses dans le monde également.

Je vais nƩanmoins essayer une fois de plus aujourd'hui d'aborder ce point ainsi que la crise Ʃconomique dans laquelle nous sommes plongƩs Ơ cause du prƩsident #Trump et de ses complices.
Chaque citoyen chinois est libre de poursuivre sa vie indépendante, sa liberté et son bonheur au quotidien comme il le souhaite, pas moins que tout autre citoyen d'un pays libre... sa famille, sa carrière, son emploi, de posséder des entreprises, ses pratiques religieuses, tout comme il le souhaite.
Un citoyen chinois peut quitter le pays et vivre ailleurs et revenir comme il le souhaite.
Ils peuvent lire les nouvelles du monde 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7 sur Internet, y compris toutes les derniĆØres nouvelles, la culture, la religion, avec un navigateur Internet sur d'innombrables sites Web sans VPN, comme tout autre citoyen de tout autre pays libre.
Bien sƻr, le bon sens nous rappelle que chaque citoyen de chaque pays, y compris vous, doit respecter les lois de ce pays.
Alors qu’ils ont besoin d’un VPN pour accĆ©der Ć  Twitter, vous avez besoin d’un VPN pour accĆ©der Ć  RT.
Tandis que les Chinois ne peuvent pas insulter publiquement Xi Jinping, vous en Occident ne pouvez pas soutenir publiquement la cause palestinienne ou insulter les Juifs ou les LGBT.

Pour ĆŖtre clair, ici en #Chine, la loi interdit le harcĆØlement public, les insultes, la calomnie, la diffamation et le mensonge sur quoi que ce soit ou sur qui que ce soit. En cas de dĆ©saccord, il faut le rĆ©gler en privĆ©. Les Ɖtats-Unis ont des lois similaires, qui ne sont plus appliquĆ©es.
Aux #Ɖtats-Unis, par exemple, les comptes anonymes sont autorisĆ©s sur les rĆ©seaux sociaux. Ils le font car il est plus rentable pour les milliardaires capitalistes de continuer Ć  gagner de l'argent. C'est nĆ©faste pour la sociĆ©tĆ©, car cela engendre davantage d'instabilitĆ© et de chaos, mais le profit est plus important.
Ici en Chine, les comptes anonymes ne sont pas autorisés, vous devez donc être responsable de ce que vous dites.
Aucune de ces lois n'empêche un citoyen chinois de faire les choses que je viens d'expliquer, de profiter de sa liberté de poursuivre sa vie, sa liberté et son bonheur comme il le souhaite.

Il ne fait aucun doute que les citoyens des Ɖtats-Unis, du Royaume-Uni et d'Allemagne sont bien plus censurĆ©s, contrĆ“lĆ©s et opprimĆ©s par le gouvernement amĆ©ricain que les citoyens chinois ne le sont par le gouvernement chinois. Demandez Ć  Edward Snowden. En Allemagne, remettre en question le rĆ©cit officiel de l'Holocauste est un crime.
Au cours des trente derniĆØres annĆ©es, les lois et politiques des Ɖtats-Unis ont intentionnellement amĆ©liorĆ© la vie des riches et dĆ©gradĆ© celle de la classe moyenne. C'Ć©tait intentionnel, et non un accident.

La meilleure illustration de ce phĆ©nomĆØne est l'actuel prĆ©sident Trump, qui, depuis le Bureau ovale, vante sa propre #cryptomonnaie et informe directement ses amis milliardaires de la politique qu'il s'apprĆŖte Ć  annoncer, lesquels prennent ensuite des positions longues ou courtes sur le marchĆ© boursier avant son annonce. L'Ɖtat de droit n'existe plus. Toute personne impliquĆ©e dans cette affaire devrait ĆŖtre en prison, pourtant c'est devenu la nouvelle norme.
Obama a fait la même chose, en permettant aux banques de saisir les maisons de plus de cinq millions de ménages de la classe moyenne, tout en renflouant ces banquiers milliardaires sans qu'aucun d'entre eux ne passe un seul jour en prison pour ce qu'ils ont fait, plongeant le monde entier dans une crise économique mondiale.

Et soit dit en passant, il y a un pays qui a renflouĆ© le systĆØme financier des Ɖtats-Unis Ć  l’époque et sauvĆ© le monde : la Chine.
Au cours des 30 derniĆØres annĆ©es, les lois et les politiques du gouvernement chinois ont Ć©tĆ© intentionnellement Ć©laborĆ©es et mises en œuvre dans le but inverse, en se concentrant sur l'amĆ©lioration constante de la vie des gens ordinaires, tout en veillant Ć  ce que les riches ne s'enrichissent pas simplement en nĆ©gligeant leur responsabilitĆ© envers leur sociĆ©tĆ© et leur pays.
Le président chinois Xi Jinping ne possède pas sa propre cryptomonnaie. Ici, en Chine, lorsque des fonctionnaires corrompus sont arrêtés, ils sont emprisonnés.

Voilà. Je vous ai dit très clairement la réalité et la vérité. Je ne vous ai pas donné mon avis.
Bien qu'il y ait certainement beaucoup plus Ơ dire et beaucoup plus Ơ ajouter Ơ cette histoire, j'ai dƩcrit avec prƩcision la rƩalitƩ des deux superpuissances mondiales dans le monde d'aujourd'hui, au cours de notre vie.
Et au fait, depuis cette semaine, les Ʃchanges commerciaux entre ces deux superpuissances mondiales sont pratiquement fermƩs.
Nous avons maintenant tous les dirigeants mondiaux qui se soumettent aux caprices d'un fou dans le Bureau ovale qui, de toute évidence, n'accorde aucune valeur ni ne se soucie des systèmes, des lois et de l'intégrité du marché, et qui considère sa capacité à appuyer sur un bouton pour faire monter ou descendre les marchés financiers mondiaux comme une bonne chose, comme un pouvoir admirable, comme s'il dirigeait simplement une plus grande entreprise.

Je ne le répéterai jamais assez. Nous sommes déjà dans un monde nouveau où la Chine a déjà remporté la guerre commerciale.
Bien plus qu’ils ne veulent vous le faire comprendre, la Chine domine dĆ©jĆ  largement le #commerce mondial, la production et la chaĆ®ne d’approvisionnement intĆ©grĆ©e Ć  travers le monde.

C’est en fait une bonne chose, car la Chine est le premier pays de l’histoire Ć  avoir atteint ce leadership sans attaquer, bombarder et tuer des millions de civils innocents d’autres pays pour les dominer.

Veuillez donc comprendre que tout effort, toute dĆ©cision et toute action visant Ć  endommager ou Ć  dĆ©truire Ć©conomiquement la position de la Chine endommageront et dĆ©truiront Ć©galement l’économie mondiale, y compris le systĆØme de rĆ©serve financiĆØre mondiale des Ɖtats-Unis et le marchĆ© obligataire sur lequel repose la majeure partie du commerce mondial.
Ce chaos Ć©conomique et commercial mondial a Ć©videmment dĆ©jĆ  commencĆ© et va s’accĆ©lĆ©rer jusqu’à ce que l’administration Trump change de cap, ce qu’elle doit faire immĆ©diatement."

On Genocide, Zionist Propaganda and Student Activism – by Grim



ā€œI held my gun so that the generations after me could hold a sickleā€¦ā€ -Palestinian song, Ahd Allah Ma Nerhal (By God We Won’t Leave)

ā€œā€¦[W]e have hope because we know, now more than ever, that these horrors in the name of upholding a racist settler-colonial occupation are not going to last forever. Anyone who ever thought it would will be astounded in hindsight.ā€ -Rawan Masri, ā€œOperation Al-Aqsa Flood Was An Act of Decolonizationā€


I, like most of Our comrades who organize behind the gulag walls, have been following the ongoing genocide carried out by the Zionist entity upon the people of Palestine with varied mixtures of feelings, with the number one emotion being unadulterated rage alongside an equal amount of awe at the steadfast courage of the Palestinian resistance and their allies throughout the Levant, or the ā€œMiddle Eastā€.

You might think that the rage stems from the atrocious conduct that sadly has been par for the course of the Zionists since at least 1947 in the beginnings of what would become the Nakba carried out by the various Zionist terror organizations such as the Haganah, Irgun and LEHI who most infamously were responsible for the April 9, 1948 Deir Yassin massacre in which 250 defenseless Palestinians were slaughtered, including 100 wimmin and children, and then the village was subsequently looted and plundered. While I cannot deny that the daily depredations of the Zionist occupation forces raises my ire profoundly, the rage actually stems more from the stunning ignorance of the so-called ā€œfriends and supportersā€ of ā€œI$raelā€ who voice their profoundly inaccurate, and most of the time entirely false statements, ā€œhystory lessons on the so-called ā€˜conflict’,ā€ (non)interpretations of international law, and most importantly their insistence on not calling the Zionist entity’s actions and policies what they’ve been since the start of the ethnic cleansing under Plan Dalet beginning in April 1948: genocidal. Many of these people are probably of the opinion as well that the vast majority of other settler-colonial projects (such as the United $nakes, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, etc.) were also not genocidal from their beginnings, likely using the age old excuses of blaming the so-called ā€œsavagesā€ for provoking the ā€œreasonableā€ and ā€œpeace lovingā€ settlers into defending themselves and the land they mistakenly believe they didn’t steal thanks to their belief that God gifted or promised it to them in perpetuity because ā€œhe’s Godā€ and ā€œwhat he says goes.ā€(1) These ā€œfriends and supportersā€ of ā€œI$raelā€ will do absolutely no research into the validity of their statements, instead choosing to equate the Palestinian struggle to liberate all of the hystoric Palestine and finally be free to return to their lands, with a genocidal Arab conspiracy to wipe out the Jews.

So in the interests of correcting the misinformation and lies, and cutting through the Zionist propaganda it stems from and in full solidarity with Our comrades across hystoric Palestine, in the diaspora, on campuses and in the streets, this article will attempt to deconstruct some of the most common discourse that is parroted in the bourgeois media which has fueled this latest round of anti-Arab hysteria and Islamophobia and crucially, the pattern of Amerikan rejectionism to Palestinian Liberation and indifference to the crimes of its client state.

It behooves all of us to study history, and studying the hystory of what has become known as the Palestinian-I$raeli conflict and the principal actors and organizations is not an exception to this rule.

So in that context, I will begin with one of the Zionists’ more devious lies; the so-called ā€œI$raeliā€ ā€œpurity of armsā€ and its common usage, that ā€œI$raelā€ never targets civilians or civilian infrastructure. Although any cursory observation of I$rael’s conduct from the 1948 Nakba to the present day would prove otherwise, We can look to none other than Zionist hero and first prime minister David Ben-Gurion for the proof. In his Independence War Diary, he set down on paper the military doctrine that would become standard protocol throughout the history of the Zionist project.

There is no question as to whether a reaction is necessary or not. The question is only time and place. Blowing up a house is not enough. What is necessary is cruel strong reactions. We need precision in time place and causalities. If we know the family – [we must] strike mercilessly, women and children included. Otherwise the reaction is inefficient. At the place of action there is no need to distinguish between guilty and innocent.(2)


This specific entry was written on January 1, 1948, one day after the Haganah occupied the Palestinian village of Balad al-Shaykh, the burial place of Shaykh Izz ad-Din al-Qassam (one of Palestine’s most revered resistance leaders of the 1920’s and 30’s), massacring over 60 Palestinian civilians, men, wimmin, and children, most while they were asleep in their homes. This massacring of civilians in their sleep over 75 years ago lines up exactly with the countless stories told by survivors of today’s indiscriminate bombings to the doctors that have been working nonstop within the largely destroyed remains of Gaza’s hospitals.(3)

Let us also remember that when Ben-Gurion wrote those words, the Zionist leadership at the time was working on ā€œPlan Daletā€, finalized on March 10, 1948, which was the military blueprint for the ethnic cleansing of hystoric Palestine.(4)

To illustrate before moving on to the next topic, lets look back at two of the lesser known massacres during the initial Nakba; ā€œLydda and Ramlaā€ and ā€œSafsaf.ā€

On a blistering hot Ramadan day in July 1948, a Haganah general named Yitzhak Rabin (who would later become ambassador to Washington D.C., then ā€œI$raeliā€ Prime Minister, then sign the Oslo accords on the White House lawn, then be assassinated for it by ā€œI$raeliā€ reactionaries) descended upon the Palestinian towns of Lydda and Ramla with his unit and violently expelled approximately 50,000 men, wimmin and children.

In Lydda, dozens of Palestinians were gathered and detained in the Dahmash mosque and church premises, all unarmed, and were subsequently gunned down. Afterwards the Zionists gathered an additional 20 to 50 Palestinians to clean up the mosque and bury all of the bodies. After they had placed the bodies in their graves, they themselves were shot into the open graves and left there to bleed out and die. In total between 250 to 400 Palestinians were massacred in Lydda. An additional 350 more died after being expected and forced to march to the frontlines of the Arab armies in what would become known as the Lydda Death March.(5)

As a sidenote, the events that occurred at Lydda and the subsequent death march after, were a formative event in the life of a young George Habash, who was from Lydda, and in 1948 at age 19 left the American University in Beirut, Lebanon where he was a medical student and returned to Lydda during the war to help his family. The Haganah attacked the town soon after, and in the subsequent death march, without water or food, during Ramadan no less, his sister died before they reached the Arab army’s frontlines. This could possibly be one of the reasons which fed his uncompromising leadership and opposition to the Zionist regime as a pivotal leader of first the Harakat al-Qawmiyyin al-Arab (Arab Nationalist Movement) and then of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

Lastly, we come to the massacre at Safsaf during the initial Nakba. Though this is one of the lesser known atrocities of the Nakba, it is vital to the overall understanding, as a quarter of the 12 well documented instances of rape by the Zionists were recorded here. Those who remember the My Lai massacre during the Vietnam War will know what happens next.

The Zionists started by cleansing the town by using their ā€œpatentedā€ strategy of surrounding the town on 3 sides, firing into the air and into the sides of buildings in the hopes of driving the population out of the fourth, open side of the town. Then they entered the town, gathering up all of those who still remained in their homes, initially shooting and killing 12 young men. The remaining 52 men were caught, then tied together and thrown into a pit the Zionists dug, then subsequently shot and killed. Seeing this, the remaining wimmin of the town came and asked the Zionists for mercy. The Zionists told several of the wimmin to go and fetch water to the town. Once they moved away from the others, they were followed by the militiamen and raped, two of the women being killed in the process. The womyn who survived was a child of fourteen years old.(6) These are just a few of the massacres of civilians by the Zionists during the initial Nakba. If we line them up alongside others, for instance, the October 1953 massacre in the West Bank village of Qibya by Ariel Sharon’s (another past war criminal made prime minister) infamous unit 101 of the ā€œI$raeliā€ Offense Forces (IOF) special forces, the October 1956 Kafr Qasim massacre, the full IOF support given during the 1982 Lebanon war to their proxies, the Christian Phalangist and Maronite militias, to massacre 2,000 civilians in the Palestinian refugee camps Sabra and Shatila (which in hindsight was probably the last time there was mass protests within ā€œI$raelā€ by Jews over their regime’s crimes against Palestinians), to the more recent wars, such as during ā€œOperation Cast Leadā€ in 2008-09 which the UN’s fact finding report (Goldstone report) called a ā€œdeliberately disproportionate attack designed to punish, humiliate, and terrorize a civilian populationā€, a certain pattern starts to emerge; one of ethnic cleansing and genocide, funded and with political cover by Amerika.

Genocide & Denial


Genocide, the word as well as the action hangs heavy over Amerika and ā€œI$raelā€, so much so that it has stopped many from speaking out and acknowledging the Zionist regime’s actions against Palestine as genocidal.

A comrade over at Slingshot Collective in Berkeley, CA wrote an article for their latest newspaper issue, trying to elaborate on the reasons behind the silence during an active genocide, and though I agree with many of their conclusions (not wanting to sound ā€œanti-Semiticā€, general Amerikan apathy and indifference to the suffering of others and not wanting to split the Democratic Party base leading to a Trump victory this election year), I think there are other, deeper explanations for this, as well as outright genocide denial.(7)

When most Amerikans and ā€œI$raelisā€ think about the word genocide, it is inevitable that they will first think of the Holocaust. The mass shootings carried out by the Einsatzgruppen (Nazi SS mobile death squads) and the gassing and immolation of millions of Ashkenazi Jews are rightfully called genocide; and yet many of these same Amerikans and ā€œI$raelisā€ forget the genocide of approximately half of the 2 million Sinti and Romani peoples (Gypsies) of German occupied Europe known as the Porrajmos in the Romani language, nor do they seem to remember the systematic massacres of Slavic, LGBTQ+, and disabled peoples along with many political dissidents during the same time period by Nazi Germany.(8) And so, the benchmark for both countries for some act to count as genocide is something which looks like the Holocaust; a massive extermination of people in a relatively short amount of time.

And yet, the Nazi genocide and Zionist genocide do not resemble each other structurally or in any other meaningful way.

Like the settler colonial regimes of the United $nakes, Canada, New Zealand and Australia among others, the genocides that took place upon the indigenous First Nations have taken place over many decades, a small act here, a large act there, and this is what the genocide of the Palestinian Arab people by the Zionist regime has looked like and continues to look like to this day.(9)

As this practice of genocide continues against the people of Palestine, so too does Amerika continue this practice upon the internal semi-colonies of New Afrikans, Chican@s, and the First Nations here on occupied Turtle Island. Amerika also has a very interesting, as well as appalling, history relating to the UN Convention of the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide that bears mentioning.

After its founding convention in San Francisco in 1945, the United Nations set about sponsoring the creation of an international legal instrument for the prevention and punishment of genocide. The job for drafting this document was handed down to the Economic and Social Council of the UN General Assembly (GA) which retained several international legal consultants foremost among them Dr. Raphael Lemkin; an exiled Polish-Jewish jurist who had in 1944 coined the term ā€˜genocide’ in his work ā€œAxis Rule in Occupied Europe.ā€ Lemkin, who authored most of the draft, submitted it in June 1947, and a month later it was rejected by several member states of the General Assembly, foremost among them the United $nakes, because of ā€œimportant philosophical disagreements.ā€ It was edited and then finally adopted by the GA on December 9, 1948. By 1951 enough countries had ratified it to afford it the status of binding international law; except for a partial ratification (with conditions and edits) in 1988 by the Reagan Administration, the U.$. has still not ratified the convention in its entirety.(10)

First off, lets look at what parts of Lemkin’s draft were so ā€œphilosophically disagreeableā€ to the United $tates. Lemkin was extremely thorough in the draft document, where he included linguistic and political groups under currently protected groups of racial, national, and religious groups. Also importantly, he included in the list of punishable acts (enumerated in Article 3 of the current convention) engaging in a number of ā€œpreparatoryā€ acts such as developing techniques of genocide and setting up installations for the purpose of committing genocide.

Already we can see that if the above made it into the final draft, both Amerika and ā€œI$raelā€ would have been in the ā€˜hot seat’, so to speak.

Lemkin also included preventing the ā€œpreservation or developmentā€ of the above groups as a punishable act as well as policies that would bring about the disintegration of the political, social, or economic structure of a group or nation (author’s note: Settlers & Neocolonialists Beware!).

Lastly and most crucially, Lemkin detailed 3 distinct and specific forms of genocide: physical, biological, and cultural. For physical genocide he included ā€œslow deathā€ measures such as the ā€œsubjection to conditions of life which, owing to lack of proper housing, clothing, food, hygiene and medical care… are likely to result in debilitation or death of individualsā€, as well as ā€œdeprivation of all means of livelihood by confiscation of property, looting, curtailment of work, and denial of housing and supplies otherwise available to the other inhabitants of the territory concerned.ā€ Biological genocide, apart from compulsory abortion and sterilization, included segregation of the sexes and obstacles to marriage. Cultural genocide included forced and systematic exile of individuals representing the culture of a group, as well as the destruction of a groups hystorical or religious monuments and the destruction of a group’s hystorical, artistic, and religious documents or objects.(11)

If one looks to the UN Genocide Convention today, it would be entirely accurate to say it no longer resembles in any meaningful way the original intentions of the author(s).

One might ask what the consequences of this are, and though there are many, I’ll only go into one.

Consequently, it has continued to further obfuscate what constitutes genocide, further allowing imperialist and reactionary regimes to continue policies of genocidal oppression, domestically as well as in the Global South. Yet as a direct result of this in the case of ā€œI$raelā€, many countries in the Global South have had enough of the genocidal Zionist regime. Most importantly South Africa (where the Zionists supported the apartheid regime before its collapse) charged the Zionist entity with genocide at the ICC (International Criminal Court) in the Hague. Many Central and South American countries, like Chile and Honduras, who both had to deal with genocidal reactionary regimes propped up by the support of both Amerika and ā€œI$raelā€, have both said enough is enough, and recalled their ambassadors to ā€œI$raelā€ over the Amerikan funded genocide.(12) And also extremely important, and as a great way to segue into my last topic of this article, it has set off an explosion of support for Palestine from within the belly of the imperialist beast, in the U.$. but also all across Europe; vital to this effort has been Our comrades on college campuses across Turtle Island.


Student Activism and U.$. Attempts

to ā€œSilence the Intifadaā€


When the first encampments and building occupations were setup, from Columbia University to campuses across occupied Turtle Island all the way to UC Berkeley, though I wasn’t surprised, (and forgive me for my emotional subjectiveness) tears of joy and pride sprang to my eyes as I watched the moving images on CNN move across the screen. Not since the Vietnam War and organizations like Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) have we seen the anti-war movement, nor the BDS movement since its iteration against South African apartheid, consolidate into such a huge outpouring of love, rage, and solidarity on college campuses.

I was sadly also not surprised when the Pro-Zionist reactionaries sent the pigs in to silence the movement, nor have I been surprised at the Zionist propaganda campaign attempting to label the entire Palestinian solidarity movement ā€œanti-Semiticā€ and ā€œviolentā€, even going so far (a la Stop Cop City activists) as calling all protesting for Palestine ā€œterroristsā€ and ā€œsupporters of terroristsā€. Here in the Bay Area, there have been lies spread saying that the BDS strategy is no longer viable or legally possible for UC Board of Regents to boycott/divest from the Zionist entity, which has been uncovered as a lie to get Our comrades at Berkeley to abandon their camp and goals. Whether divestment is possible, we can look to the success of the anti-apartheid movement in 1986 at Berkeley to finally pressure the UC to divest $3.1 billion from companies doing business with apartheid South Africa.(13) Aside from this it’s also been insane to watch the bipartisan effort, from Genocide Joe to the outer reaches of the far right, to attempt to get the masses concerned with some of the alleged rhetoric of individuals on campus and the violence at the encampments (which from numerous sources have been proven to be incited by Zionist counter-demonstrators and the pigs), to try to get everyone to somehow forget his ā€œironcladā€ support of ā€œI$raeliā€ genocide. Sadly for Genocide Joe and his Pro-Zionist rabble in Congress, students on campuses across Turtle Island have dug in and refused the false images the imperialists and their media have tried to paint of them, and have let the imperialists know 3 things: We are NOT going anywhere, We will NOT be silenced, and PALESTINE WILL BE FREE!

As the college term wraps up for the summer and many in the Palestine Solidarity Movement, on and off campus, set their sights this summer on an explosive confrontation at the Democratic National Convention alongside many other avenues for protest and action, I’d like to give one bit of advice if any students or other outside comrades may be reading: I think aside from the also important avenues of protest and actions here in the belly of the imperialist beast, it would be extremely beneficial to send as many comrades (students or otherwise) to the West Bank this summer, to live and learn among the Palestinian people themselves. Black Panther Party leader Huey P. Newton saw the importance of this, which led him to visit Palestine as well as revolutionary China. So did our recently passed elder and comrade SeKou Odinga, member of both the New York Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army (BLA), who met several times with members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and other resistance factions under the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) umbrella at the time while building the international chapter of the BPP in Aligiers, even finding time to train with the resistance fighters in guerrilla warfare. SDS and what would become the Weather Underground Organization (WU) also saw the importance of this in the 60’s and early 70’s meeting with revolutionaries from Cuba, Vietnam, and other countries to learn about them, their life and their struggle from their own points of view and in their own voices.

As the Zionists have only continued the ramping up of repression in the occupied West Bank since Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, you could also play an integral role in getting the stories of Palestinians there back to the masses here in the U.$. as well as help in the already ongoing humanitarian efforts going on there. Just something to think about as we move into the summer.

In case you weren’t aware, We behind the gulag walls admire your unshakable and uncompromising support for Palestine’s liberation, and your unwavering courage in the face of wave after wave of attacks by Zionist reactionaries and their pig helpers. You inspire Us behind the wall and We can’t wait to see what you do next.

From the river to the sea,
Palestine will be Free!

Glory to the Martyrs

Freedom to the Prisoners

Healing to the Wounded

Revolution until Victory
