"The blockade of food and humanitarian aid, imposed on Gaza since March 2, is reducing Palestinians to abject dependence. To eat, they must crawl towards their killers and beg. Humiliated, terrified, desperate for a few scraps of food, they are stripped of dignity, autonomy and agency. This is by intent."

Schauspieler Moritz Bleibtreu ist neuerdings auch als Regisseur tätig. Als Schauspieler zählt er zweifellos zu den Besten, die wir in #Deutschland haben. Um nur eine herausragende Leistung zu benennen, sei seine Darstellung des Bruno #Klement in Oskar #Roehlers Verfilmung aus dem Jahr 2006 des Weltbestsellers „Elementarteilchen“ von Michel #Houellebecq erwähnt. Was für eine Zusammenarbeit mit Bernd #Eichinger und Oliver #Berben als Produzenten und Corinna #Harfouch sowie weiteren hochkarätigen deutschem Personal auf der Besetzungsliste. Die Frankfurter Allgemeine nannte den Film damals zwar eine „kleine lebenszeitvernichtende Ewigkeit“, andere aber schauen #Elementarteilchen heute schon wie einen #Kultfilm in Widerholungsschleife. So verhält sich eben bisweilen die Diskrepanz zwischen Filmkritik und Filmpublikum. Zwischen Geschmack und Gefallen.
[…]
Zunächst einmal bezieht Moritz Bleibtreu seine überraschende Kritik auf die Situatin des deutschen Films. Der wäre am Boden, weil die Deutschen ihre nationale Identität verloren hätten. So hätte es der deutsche Film beispielsweise verlernt, von Heldenfiguren zu erzählen, mit denen sich der Zuschauer identifizieren könnte. Interessant dürfte hier sein, inwieweit Bleibtreu erst im Rahmen seiner eigenen Regiearbeit erahren musste, was gerade auch in der Filmförderung, auf die fast jeder neue deutsche Film angewiesen ist, wie da mittlerweile schon verbindliche Diversity-Checklisten #Grundbedingung für den Antrag von #Fördergeldern sind.
Und wenn der alte weiße heterosexuelle deutsche Bleibtreu in seinem Regiedebüt auch gleich die Hauptrolle spielt neben der deutschen weißen Nadja Uhl, dann kann es eben eng werden für #Fördergelder – aber das bleiben #Mutmaßungen.
Moritz Bleibtreu möchte von diesem „blöden Minderwertigkeitskomplex“ der Deutschen wegkommen. Das wäre aber auf „absehbare Zeit“ kaum zu schaffen, angesichts besagter „kaputter nationale® Identität“ sei das leider nicht möglich, sagte er in einem kurzen Interview mit der Nachrichtenagentur Teleschau. Jetzt ist die Vita von Bleibtreu alles andere als geprägt von einer Suche nach einer deutschen Identität. Seine Filmografie erzählt bisweilen eher das Gegenteil als einen künstlerischen Blick in die deutsche Seele – wie auch immer. Jedenfalls dann, so man davon ausgeht, Bleibtreu verstehe unter „nationaler Identität“ das Gleiche wie mutmaßlich die Mehrheit der Deutschen. Diese Mehrheit allerdings ist aktuell zunächst unter dem Eindruck einer jahrelangen Massenmigration und zuletzt den Corona-Maßnahmenpaket der Regierung nachhaltig verstört.

The billions and billions of dollars this bill pumps into ICE far exceed any conceivable legitimate need the agency could have, even if you agree with its mission.
This bill takes the same masked, anonymous gunmen who have been kidnapping people off the streets and gives them a budget the size of a military.
This is not about honoring the law. This is not even about immigrants.
This is about creating a police state.
I see no other way to read these numbers.

We move from one place to another, from one bombardment to the next, in an attempt to keep up with the insane escalation on Gaza City and the north. With every talk of negotiations or deals for a ceasefire, the bombing intensifies, scenes of evacuation and displacement expand, and the stranglehold tightens on over a million Palestinians, trapped between death, hunger, and siege.
