Today I will spend hours in the @EUCommission's #DMA workshop with #Apple so you don't have to. It'll be painful, it'll be funny, it'll be hot! 😆

The workshop starts with Apple lawyers speaking time in which they are supposed to explain how they comply with the #DigitalMarketsAct. Instead, they waste everybody's time with marketing BS and pointless rants against the law (or as they say "the Commission's interpretation of the law").

What a waste.

Quoting Iris Hefetz:

As part of the “new chapter” in its history, #Germany has become a kind of #Jewish shtetl. Descendants of #Nazis adopt Jewish symbols, worship #Zionism and persecute Jews who criticize Israel – in the name of fighting #antisemitism, of course.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Hefetz describes how Germany has undergone what she calls “convertion to Zionism,” that is the transformion of descendants of Nazis into “the new Jews.” But she starts with a joke she heard from a Jewish child in #Berlin:

“What’s the difference between Jews and Muslims? The Jews are already past that.”

Muslims have become the new target for traditional German racism and intolerance. She contrasts today’s Germany with the country she found 23 years ago:

“Germany 23 years ago was truly a different Germany. It was still an anti-militaristic and anti-nationalist society and state, which respected its constitution and international law to some extent, where a million people marched against the horrific and internationally illegal war by the US in Iraq, which Germany refused to participate in.”

She traces this transformation back to Germany’s first chancellor, Konrad Adenauer, who stated: “We caused the Jews such great injustice, we committed such terrible crimes against them, that there was a need to atone for them or repair them to some extent, if we wanted to regain honor among the nations of the world.” However, Adenauer’s antisemitic reasoning was revealed when he added: “The power of the Jews – even today, especially in America – should not be underestimated. Therefore, I consciously and carefully invested my entire being, to the best of my ability, to bring about reconciliation between the German people and the Jewish people.”

Hefetz says that Germans have now collectively “converted to Zionism” without the need for actual conversion:

“An entire wing of the German ‘left’ consists of men who ‘engaged in identity searching’ and found it in the form of Israel. They sound as if Noa Tishby is speaking from their throats, wrapping themselves in Israeli flags and IDF flags, going to see folk dance performances celebrating diplomatic relations between the states, and saving Jews from ‘antisemitism.’”

She explains that “according to data published in the Israeli magazine in Berlin, ‘Spitz,’ in an article later removed, more than half of the complaints about antisemitic incidents in Germany are by German Christians with Nazi grandparents, who are attacked by Jews demonstrating against Israel, for example.” The irony, she notes, is that “descendants and great-grandchildren of Nazis are very sensitive to ‘antisemitic attacks against them,’ especially if they come from Jews and Israelis.”

Hefetz describes Germany’s creation of an artificial Jewish identity: “Germany has become a kind of Jewish shtetl. There is no place in the world where you can hear more #klezmer music (traditional Eastern European Jewish music) , adapted to the German ear. The popular names in recent decades in Germany are Hebrew Jewish names.” She explains how “the German state began funding Reform conversion of Christians to Judaism, and recreated the destroyed German liberal Judaism, a ‘new Judaism’ that is of course more desirable than the ultra-Orthodox, who are ‘Ostjuden.’”

Note: The original derogatory term #Mizrahim as used by Ashkenazi Jews, referred to Jews of Eastern European heritage. In #Israel this term was then repurposed to describe Arab Jews, mostly, as part of what Aziza Khazzoom described as de-orinetalization of the largest Jewish diaspora, see “How the Polish Peddler Became a German Intellectual” sup.org/books/sociology/shifti…

Hefetz details how this “Israelization” serves #Germany’s return to #militarism:

“Identification with Israel helps Germany return to being a militaristic state: it helps break the taboo of nationalism; it helps rehabilitate the image of the German man, who in the years after the war tried to be ‘non-German’ by emphasizing soft qualities, non-authoritarian education for children.”

She quotes recent statements by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who said Israel “does the dirty work for us” regarding attacks on Iran, while a security expert from his party stated “we are also ready to die for Israel.” She notes the antisemitic nature of these statements:

“These antisemitic statements about Jews doing Germany’s ‘dirty work’ are not new, and the reference to killing civilians as ‘dirty work’ recalls Himmler’s Poznan speech, or what Rudolf Hess said at the Nuremberg trials.”

She concludes that “Germany is making a comeback” through authoritarian measures disguised as fighting antisemitism, while “Germany supplies Israel with at least a third of the weapons for the genocide in Gaza.” Despite this official support, Hefetz notes that “there is an absolute majority in the German public that consistently opposes supplying weapons to Israel; and with all the pro-Israeli propaganda and Israeli flags flying over every government office in Germany, 73% think what Israel is doing in Gaza is genocide.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

מתגיירים לציונות: כך הפכו צאצאי הנאצים ל"יהודים החדשים" - שיחה מקומית

בשנה הראשונה להגעתי לברלין, שמעתי מילד בית ספר את ה"בדיחה" הזו: מה ההבדל בין יהודים למוסלמים? היהודים, הם כבר אחרי זה. זה לא היה מצחיק אז, ועוד פחות מצחיק עכשיו, מכיוון שכמו בכל בדיחה, גם כאן היה גרעין של אמת.

Another quote from Hefetz’s essay:

Historian Professor Moshe Zimmermann spoke in the parliament of the state of Saxony in Germany, and said that the lesson from the Holocaust should be universal, meaning also applicable regarding Israel. The monitoring institution decided that this was a comparison of Israel to the Nazi regime, and this too became an “antisemitic incident.” Since these institutions know they are embarrassing themselves, they don’t say that this involves an Israeli Jew (from a family of German Holocaust survivors), but rather encode him in their data as a “speaker.” This is also true regarding every Jew who went out to demonstrate against the genocide in Gaza since October 7th with a sign identifying him as such: all members of the organization “Jewish Voice for Peace,” and also others who are not members of the organization who did so, were arrested by the police, received complaints that were later cancelled (for incitement and use of symbols contrary to the German constitution). I myself was arrested five times. These cases feed the statistics of “antisemitic incidents in Germany.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Psychedelics are incredibly powerful and CAN help with a range of indications. Of course, random use may not help (e.g., Muskolini)....you get out of them what you put into them. Assholes like Muskolini just put more of their desperate fragile ego in and we see what pukes out. By contrast, intention to overcome PTSD, severe depression, addiction--can indeed be quite salutary.

Voting for Kamala Harris would literally have changed nothing, to be honest. Everything would have still sucked, and liberals would just have ignored it like they did for the past four years.

Kids would have still burned alive around the world, trans care would still have been banned nationwide by the GOP anyways, ICE funding would have creeped up gradually like it always does.

Trump accelerated the trends that already were there. He did not create any of the problems that are usually attributed to him by the democratic party. The far right cancer is deeper than Trump, it will exist without Trump, and you cannot ignore its spread during non GOP presidencies.

Not that it really matters, but a terribly untalented writer for badly failing Forbes Magazine, Dan Alexander, who probably can’t get a meaningful job in the business, has written so inaccurately about me that it is ridiculous. Many others also, the media is mostly Fake News, but Forbes doesn’t even try to get things right. I haven’t spoken to these SleazeBags in years, they don’t want the facts, and they’re so inaccurate (purposely!) about everything. I would have thought Forbes would be DEAD by now, but it continues to hang around like a bad disease. Isn’t it owned by a hostile nation? Anyway, that’s what happens when you have bad reporters with evil intentions. Eventually the publication dies. I’ve happily seen it over, and over, again!

He talks about Russia as the dangerous destination but today I am far more likely to be arrested at US customs. Mind you the last 3 times that I entered Russia I did not go through customs. The US is far more likely to demand my Facebook name and I do not have one. I would like to lose all such accounts but they do demand them and assume that you are simply being obstructive and see that as a crime. Russia are far more likely to want to know your VK account but will accept that you do not have one and have no interest in Facebook etc. I did stay with VK longer as they left me alone but they are now KYC and I would not give them such information.

Andreas Sofaer - what means "sofaer" ?

I feared to get a quite creepy welcome when I had to go to US for business reasons some 3 years ago
Luckily no FB account. But I deleted all mails about any petitions I had signed and any notification from despora. In Esta I said that I do not have any social media account running.
And I arrived during the weekend... They did not want to see my mobile phone.
Would have been a shame in case I was returned and my employer had paid the flight fees etc anyway...
So I was lucky ... but I knew from other cases how dangerous it would be...
I won't risk to take a journey to the USA again.

The Dispossessed Majority by Wilmot Robertson

No one who reads this all-encompassing study of the American predicament will ever again view his country and himself in the same light. The author brilliantly recounts the tragedy of a great people, the Americans of European descent, who founded and built The United States and whose decline is the chief cause of America's decline. Although replete with cogent criticism of the people and events which have brought America low, the book ends on a positive, optimistic note, which envisions a resurgent American Majority liberating its institutions from the control of intolerant intellectuals innately programmed to destroy what they could never create.

#Academia and #HigherEd need a coordinated strategy and resource sharing plan to stave off fascist attacks on scientific knowledge and free inquiry.

Of course, it also takes courageous and determined leadership and that means trustees and regents who place intellectual values above dollars.

center]Federated Services[/center]

Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.

We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.

There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.

Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.

Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.

Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.

Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.

Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.

We offer the following federated services:

Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.

Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.

Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.

NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
Nextcloud If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.

Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.


Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.

Sorry for the brief outages of our federated services earlier. We upgraded our databases from MariaDB 11.7.2 to MariaDB 11.8.2 and there were a few tweaks needed that required several restarts.

Our eyes should see only for God, our feet walk only for Him, our hands labor for Him alone; in short, our entire body should serve God while we still have the time. Then, when He shall take our health and we shall near our last day, our conscience will not reproach us for having misused it."

Shell Accounts

Shell Accounts
A shell is a command line interface for an operating system. With most shell providers, a command line interface on one flavor of Linux or Unix is all you get. Eskimo North provides access to eight different popular Linux distributions and SunOS Unix. Eskimo North also full remote desktop capabilities using X2Go with sound, and also NX, VNC, and RPD without sound.

Account Types
We offer four different levels of shell accounts: Economy, Standard, Power, and Enterprise. Background tasks such as IRC bots, Game Servers, and the like are permitted on all account types except student. IRC servers are not permitted because of their tendency to draw denial of service attacks. Standard, Power, Enterprise, and Super-Max shells include a MySQL database allowing you to run a variety of LAMP stack based applications on your website and to use non-web based applications that require a database.

Web Hosting
Web hosting under our domain is provided with all shell accounts. You can host your own domains with virtual domains or web hosting packages.

Remote Desktop
Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.

Applications
Applications include Office Suites such as Libre Office and Caligra (which can read and write Microsoft Office file formats), Web and Program Development tools such as Bluefish Editor as well as many other editors, compilers, interpreters, scripting languages, debuggers, profilers, and online documentation.

E-mail
Our e-mail system offers unprecedented flexibility. You can access your mail via shell mail readers including graphical mailers like Thunderbird, or via Web mail, or via pop-3 and imap mail protocols, complete with TLS encryption. Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.

Security[color]
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.

[color=darkblue]Eskimo North has been providing Unix timeshare services since 1985. We have been providing Linux timeshare, shell access, web hosting, e-mail, and Internet services since 1992. Please take a look at our services as they support our free Federated services including Friendica, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Nextcloud, Pixelfed, and Yacy Search.

Available Shell Servers

We have a variety of Linux Servers with a variety of Linux Distributions and Desktop Environments. Linux servers in use here are of three basic lines, those derived from RedHat, such as Fedora, Centos, and Scientific Linux, and those derived from Debian such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Mint. Ubuntu is the most current and feature rich. Then there is Manjaro, derived from Arch Linux. Arch is more often broken because it is a real “do it yourself” Linux, an excellent learning platform, a good development platform, not a good production platform.

All of these servers are available if you have a shell account here. You can use them to learn various versions, decide which to install, and as one place you can develop applications for all versions. We install a wide variety of development tools on all of our publicly available servers.

Our servers listen to port 443 in addition to the standard ssh port of 22 to provide a means to connect from behind a firewall that blocks non-web access. You can also utilize Guacamole on our website (login public, password public).

Alma.Eskimo.Com
This server is running Alma 8. Alma Linux replaces Scientific Linux after it’s discontinuation. Presently we are running Alma 8 because Alma 9 does not support NIS out of the box although there are ways of hacking it in. It is unfortunate that Redhat chose to piss on the infrastructure so many organizations depend upon. This is why we tend to favor Debian derived flavors. None the less as Redhat derived software goes Alma is pretty solid.
Anduinos.Eskimo.Com
Anduinos is a Debian derived distribution that defaults to a Gnome Desktop themed to look like Windows 10. At present though this Desktop is not working over network connections, instead Mate and Gnome are presently available. I am working on some others.
Debian.Eskimo.Com
Debian Bullseye has a rich assortment of software installed, including hundreds of Games, a huge variety of Office Productivity software, many Educational and Scientific applications, a variety of Integrated Development Environments, and many programming languages. All of the documentation available online these applications is also loaded.
Fedora.Eskimo.Com
Fedora Rawhide can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate desktop. It has the most applications of any of the Redhat derived servers. I install just about everything I can get to work on this machine so it has a huge variety of applications installed.
Kali.Eskimo.Com
Kali is a special purpose shell server designed for penetration testing. It is primarily here to test our own internal security, and as a result, egress is extremely limited, however upon request, proof of IP space ownership, and permission of the owner and agreement to hold us harmless because it is possible some of these tests may be destructive, we will allow outbound for testing of other sites.
Manjaro.Eskimo.Com
Manjaro is a good choice for a Linux user who wants to just install and go. There is a pleasant user interface and a good choice of software in the Manjaro repositories. It is a less technical Linux than Ubuntu, you can do most things through graphical interfaces and the default xfce interface is extremely light in terms of memory footprint. Like most modern distros, a variety of Windows systems are available and we have Gnome, Mate, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, and LXQT installed.
Mint.Eskimo.Com
Mint is another recent addition to our shell servers. It is running Mint, although we have the Mate Desktop installed for graphical access. This is necessary because Unity and other compositing Desktops are incompatible with x2go and really work very roughly with VNC. If you like games, this is a good server to use and there are many installed. Mint is a derivative of Ubuntu which in turn is derived from Debian and this server thus follows the structure and layout of Debian and Ubuntu.
MxLinux.Eskimo.Com
MxLinux is an excellent choice for a computer with limited resources. Before the overhead of a Desktop is considered, MxLinux uses 200MB less RAM out of the box than does Ubuntu. If you’re not a fan of Poettering and Systemd, you’ll like this OS as it still uses a System-V init with Systemd shims to allow packages requiring systemd to function. You can also run systemd and in fact I am doing so because it boots faster. The default Desktop is LXDE which is also small and efficient. But if you like eye candy you can install any Desktop you like and as with other servers I will install all that I can get to work on this OS.
PopOS.Eskimo.Com
popOS is a modern appearing OS based upon Ubuntu, and not just indirectly, it actually utilizes Ubuntu’s repositories in addition to it’s own. The Desktops presently available on it are Gnome and Mate, though Gnome is a special edition known as Sparkle, and it does not operate properly with X2go. Presently X2go and ssh are the only two access methods. I am working on the others.
Rocky8.Eskimo.Com
Rocky8 is a RedHat derived operating system very similar to Centos before Centos was absorbed, and ruined, by Redhat. While Centos support, with the exception of Centos9 is going away on June 30th, 2024, and CentOS9 is not usable because of the deletion of NIS by RedRat which is necessary to our organization, Rocky8 will be supported for security updates through May of 2029, thus provides us a means of continuing to offer a Redhat based environment for another five years.

Ubuntu.Eskimo.Com
Ubuntu can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate Desktop. The native Unity desktop is a compositing desktop which is incompatible with x2go. This machine is equipped with many applications including a huge number of games, a rich assortment of development tools and computer programming languages, a huge assortment of Office productivity software, many scientific, electronic, and educational tools.
Zorin.Eskimo.Com
Zorin is a Ubuntu derived operating system. It combines the eye candy of some other Ubuntu flavors such as Mint, with the security awareness and up to date nature of Ubuntu providing a really superb server environment. This machine is our best equipped server. It has the full Ubuntu Studio Suite, a very large assortment of development tools, language packs for all supported languages, many games, both Libre and Caligra Office Suites, and much more. X2go is supported on this machine.

Crontab access, batch, and background jobs are allowed on all of our servers. Most have unrestricted outbound access with the exception of kali owing to high abuse potential for tools that exist on it.

Par Marie Schwab

« Si vous étiez Palestinien, si vous viviez sous occupation depuis votre naissance, si vous n’aviez pas de passeport, si des étrangers étaient venus dans votre pays pour le voler et contrôler toute votre vie, que feriez-vous ? », interroge Ahmad Alnaouq.

« Sumud, صمود, la ténacité résiliente, n’est pas un terme sentimental. C’est un terme politique qui signifie que le peuple n’abandonne pas », expose Ramzy Baroud.

« Muqawama, مقاومة, que l’on traduit par résistance, se passe d’adjectif. Il n’y a pas la #résistance armée et la résistance pacifique. La #muqawama se suffit à elle-même. Vous résistez, et vous n’avez d’autre choix que de résister. Les factions n’ont rien à voir avec cela. La muqawama transcende le temps, l’espace et l’idéologie. C’est ce qui unit tous les Palestiniens. Si vous décidez que vous ne serez pas vaincus, peu importe le rapport de force, vous resterez invaincus. #Gaza a déjà été qualifiée d’endroit impropre à la vie en 2020 par les Nations Unies. Comment la qualifier aujourd’hui ? Mais les Palestiniens restent à Gaza et luttent. »

Au moment où la #France était censée reconnaître l’État de #Palestine, elle choisit de réitérer son soutien sans faille à #Israël.

La France refuse de considérer 22 % de la Palestine historique comme terre palestinienne et fait le choix du colonialisme sous sa forme exterminatrice.

La France renouvelle son soutien sans faille à l’occupant au moment où les Nations Unies pointent dans un rapport qu’Israël est le pays au monde qui viole le plus le droit des enfants. Gaza et la Cisjordanie sont les deux endroits au monde les plus dangereux pour un enfant.

La France réitère son soutien sans faille à un Etat qui largue des bombes d’une tonne sur les écoles et les hôpitaux.

A Gaza, les médecins reçoivent leurs proches à l’hôpital – par pour une fracture, mais pour des organes vitaux éclatés.
A Gaza, des fœtus gisent dans la poussière, arrachés du ventre de leur mère par un obus.
A Gaza, Rahaf, trois ans, agonise seule, par terre, du sang plein la bouche.
A Gaza, Mouafak transporte à vélo le corps de Ali, son père, qui était parti chercher de quoi faire du pain.

Ce n’est pas une tragédie, c’est un génocide.

Le journaliste Anas al-Sharif, à Gaza-ville, témoigne : « 100 martyrs depuis l’aube. La plupart faisaient la queue pour obtenir à manger. Ils voulaient de la farine, ils ont trouvé la mort. 100 âmes innocentes arrachées à la vie. 100 familles dévastées. 100 enfants dormiront sans père ce soir. Gaza ne saigne pas, Gaza est massacrée. »

« Quand votre fils vous dit ‘j’ai faim, je veux manger’, qu’est-ce que vous pouvez faire ? » interroge Hassan. « Vous voulez que votre vie s’arrête, vous voulez mourir. »

A Gaza, les enfants aussi veulent mourir. Une étude de War Child Alliance estimait en décembre 2024 que 49 % des enfants souhaitaient mourir. Et que 97 % des enfants pensaient leur mort imminente.

Le problème, ce n’est pas l’extrême droite israélienne, c’est le sionisme en tant qu’idéologie suprémaciste. 80 % des Israéliens approuvent l’expulsion de la population de Gaza et une majorité s’oppose à l’entrée de l’aide humanitaire à Gaza.

Il n’y a pas de #sionisme de gauche, pas plus qu’il n’y a de racisme de gauche. Il n’y a pas d’occupation à visage humain ni de #colonialisme humaniste.

Israël s’est construit sur les ruines des 500 villages palestiniens rayés de la carte en 1948. Israël est bâti sur la déportation de 2/3 des Palestiniens en 1948.

Israël occupe et bombarde la Palestine. Israël occupe et bombarde le Liban. Israël occupe et bombarde la Syrie. Israël bombarde le Yemen. Israël bombarde l’Iran.

Et l’Occident accepte une fois de plus de tailler sur mesure une exception israélienne à la loi. Par la magie de l’impunité, le crime d’agression devient légitime défense et guerre préventive – fantasme impérialiste inexistant dans le droit international.

L’Occident une fois de plus épouse et reprend à son compte la distorsion du droit et du récit par l’occupant, au détriment de la loi et de la vérité factuelle.

Depuis plus de 30 ans, Israël clame que l’Iran est « à deux doigts de la bombe », et l’Occident préfère le croire et rester sourd aux déclarations de Rafael Grossi, directeur de l’AIEA, répétant que l’agence n’a aucune preuve que l’Iran fabrique une bombe nucléaire.

Tulsi Gabbard, à la tête du National Security Council, qui chapeaute toutes les agences du renseignement américain, affirme elle aussi dans un rapport le 26 mars 2025 que l’Iran n’est pas en train d’élaborer la bombe atomique et que le régime n’autorise pas le programme nucléaire militaire – peu importe.

Peu importe aussi, a fortiori, si le chef spirituel de l’Iran, Ali Khamenei, répète depuis 2003 qu’il proscrit l’arme nucléaire, estimée comme contraire à l’Islam, et si le président Masoud Pezeshkian atteste que l’Iran ne cherche pas à s’en doter.

Israël tente d’assassiner Ali Chabkhani, chargé des négociations sur le nucléaire avec les Etats-Unis, qui s’était engagé le 15 mai à ne pas chercher à fabriquer l’arme atomique.

Quel pays au monde a déjà bombardé par le passé des sites nucléaires, en Irak et en Syrie, sans susciter une désapprobation mondiale ?
A présent Israël bombarde des sites atomiques en Iran et est encouragé par l’Occident.

Mais c’est bien Israël, et non l’Iran, qui refuse toute inspection de l’AIEA.
C’est bien Israël, et non l’Iran, qui détient des centaines d’ogives nucléaires non déclarées (13) et n’a signé aucun traité sur les armes atomiques.

La peur est ce qui cimente la société israélienne. « En tant qu’Israélien, vous recevez des overdoses, de manipulation de la mémoire de l’Holocauste ; vous devenez addict à la peur », expose Ilan Pappé.

Israël est construit sur le mensonge et se nourrit de la peur. « Quand [les troupes sionistes] attaquaient l’’ennemi’, en 1948, elles n’attaquaient pas une armée, elles attaquaient un village avec toute sa population. Certains membres de ces troupes étaient eux-mêmes des survivants de l’Holocauste. Comment les convainquez-vous que ce qu’il convient de faire, que ce que vous avez de mieux à faire, c’est d’aller à Deir Yassin, ou tout autre village, et de massacrer les bébés, les enfants, les femmes, les hommes, les vieillards, que c’est de la légitime défense, que c’est nécessaire ? »

Israël instille dans nos sociétés une culture de la peur, de la méfiance, de la haine. Le sionisme est un poison pour l’humanité.
La question, ce n’est pas deux Etats, un Etat, ce n’est pas la sécurité d’Israël. Prendre le problème à la racine, c’est mettre fin au suprémacisme sioniste, à l’occupation coloniale.

Je voudrais terminer par une pensée pour Omar, 8 ans, qui pleure et erre dans l’hôpital Nasser, hébété, terrifié, cherchant désespérément sa sœur après le bombardement de sa maison, et qui ne sait pas encore que son père est mort, lui aussi.

Une pensée pour Amira, 11 ans, qui répète : « Nous ne voulons pas manger, papa. Si seulement tu n’étais pas parti, papa… »

Une pensée pour Yasmine, qui pleure elle aussi son papa et demande : « Qui m’appellera mon petit oiseau, qui me prendra dans ses bras, qui m’appellera ma petite fleur ? »

Regardons-les. Notre coeur doit saigner. Notre cœur doit brûler. C’est par nous, société civile, que viendra le changement, pas de l’occupant et de ses complices.

Union Juive Française pour la Paix
un de ses porte parole a déjà été "menacé" par les services secrets israéliens :
réveillé à 2h du matin par les condés pour avoir tué sa femme qui dormait à ses côtés
les sévices secrets avaient téléphoné en se faisant passer pour lui du genre perdu d'avoir tué sa femme
les pandores ont mis apparemment du temps pour comprendre ( pas très étonnant du fait que le syndicat majoritaire de la police est d’extrême droite)

Vous pouvez les soutenir ( et même les non juifs peuvent adhérer)
