21WIRE | Israel's internal crime investigation system is a carefully staged performance designed to whitewash their war crimes and deny Palestinians accountability.
Father of mercy, you made Saint John Vianney outstanding in his priestly zeal and concern for your people. By his example and prayers, enable us to win our brothers and sisters to the love of Christ and come with them to eternal glory.

________
May the Lord bless us, protect us from all evil, and bring us to everlasting life. Amen.
Every time you post this prayer, but with different Saints, my brain goes to Handel's Hallelujah Chorus, from "Messiah," sung at Christmas by The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. 💖

On the fifth anniversary of the devastating Beirut port explosion, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun pledged that "justice is coming", renewing calls for accountability in a disaster that killed over 220 people and left thousands wounded.
@erdu Zionist? Yes, of course. Fascist? Thats whatr you are, you dumb fucktards. With your pseudo-left one-sided criticism, you are complicit in the deaths of all those civilians.
Remember when zion meant paradise, the aspiration, the manifesting heaven on earth... and thus zionism would just be striving for making your nation paradise.
You cannot build paradise with bricks of atrocity.
No rest on a bed of blood.
Not my zion.
And to those in that totalitarian hypnosis, when they hear "anti-zionism", they hear it as they're primed to, to keep them terrorised in the totalitarian mass formation all the harder, like it's the threat that someone wants to deprive them of their nationhood. Would you want to be deprived of your nationhood? No. We have to come up with better approaches that do not fall foul of the psyops deeply entrenched. Gently does it.
Of course, some others are just abject dark-tetrads, and/or false-flaggers trying to get the world to hate jews, so the crazies who want to pose to them the ultimatum, once consolidated, "convert to christianity or be nuked". ... Oh there's ample crazy to go around alrighty.
Peak fascism energy
Yup.
Blatantly narcissistic too. Abject absence of introspection, strong arrogance vibe of apportioning blame and taking credit, self aggrandising and gaslighting others... Like has succumbed to a infallibility-&-superiority complex..
... Even when encountering people pointing it out... is strongly unlikely to ever have that "could it be me?" moment.
But try we must.
Not speaking up against totalitarianism makes it worse with every atrocity committed as if it's a necessary virtue.
Yeah, bringing back individual responsibility would go a long way to mending this. No more "just doing my job" excuse.
Restore good people disobeying bad orders.
Every example of that can inspire the timid obedient masses out of their lethally conformist mass formation, back to individual sovereign autonomy and conscientious consciousness.

Fabio is the opposite of a Nazi and I am sick and tired of people WHO ARE OPPOSING A LITERAL GENOCIDE being perpetrated by Israel constantly having to defend themselves from accusations of antisemitism.
The dregs of humanity who are supporting, apologising for, and complicit in Israel’s genocide are the people and instances we should be blocking here not antifascists like Fabio who is spending his time trying to get aid to Palestinians on the ground in Gaza.
Ask yourselves what kind of person tries to have someone who is trying to get aid to people who are being starved blocked on the fediverse.
And then decide who should be blocked and who shouldn’t.
A quick heads up to my followers: after threatening to get me fired @8124 has reported me to the staff of mastodon.social demanding the defederation of my instance accusing me of being a Nazi https...
Also, to the folks at Booking.com: remember when you got me in to give a talk for you on ethics? Now is a good time to rewatch it and do the right thing.
I’d like to know who the anonymous coward running the @8124@mastodon.social account is.
That person is defending Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people, slandering and attempting to silence voices that oppose it (and those trying to get aid to the Palestinian people), and generally apologising for and complicit in genocide all while maintaining their anonymity. If anyone should be losing their job, it’s that person, not Fabio.
Feel free to DM me for my Signal if you have any information as they should experience consequences for their actions.
Any information you provide will be kept in confidence.
And to the @Mastodon admins: consider this a formal complaint about an account that is engaged in genocide denial, genocide apologism, and complicity in genocide. I look forward to seeing what action, if any, you take, as does history.
I’m genuinely quite tired of having to defend myself from stuff I’ve never written, but I’ll try it one last time.
When I say “we shouldn’t buy oranges and dates from Israel unless we are reasonably confident that they were not grown on stolen land” would you react with a “oh are you telling me that I shouldn’t eat oranges?”
When I say “we shouldn’t allow Muslim education in our countries if they have suspicious ties with people from the Salafi movement or other hardcore religious groups that may pose a threat to the national security and cohesion” would you react with a “oh are you telling me that Muslims can’t read the Quran in your country?”
When I say “we should avoid supporting Holocaust foundations if they have IDF senior members sitting in their boards, if they haven’t taken a strong position against all genocides, including the one perpetrated right now by their own country, if they don’t even reinvest our money to keep their own records of the victims up-to-date, and if they betray their mission of peace by having social media content and tone comparable with that of an IDF general” would you react with “oh are you telling me that Jews can’t commemorate their own dead?”
Come on, stop insulting my intelligence and your own and don’t try to convince me that principles are supposed to be followed only when they don’t affect the people or topics that you’re biased towards.
Dear @celesteh, there’s a fucking genocide being perpetrated by fucking Israel and you’re spending your time putting words in people’s mouths who dare criticise it when Israel’s weaponised its definition of antisemitism for as long as it has existed – making Jewish people everywhere less safe as a result. Antisemitism is very real and this is not it. You know what’s antisemitic? Conflating criticism of a genocidal apartheid ethnostate with antisemitism. Basically saying to be against genocide is to be against all Jews. I can’t think of a worse antisemitic statement than one that says all Jews support genocide. And that’s what Israel is doing by conflating Zionism with being Jewish.
But anyway, I’m sick and tired of defending ourselves from slander. So fuck you.
Er, @fabio is the one distracting from the genocide. He totally misrepresents Bartov here - show me where he supports Fabio's antisemitic argument that European holocaust memorials should close. ghostarchive.org/archive/A4bFM
Lets spend our time focussing on Palestine-led initiatives like BDS rather than defending intellectually dishonest posts from random techbros. Especially when those techbros are apparently proud to break that boycott by working for companies high on BDS list! Bonkers.
Booking.com directly supports and benefits from Israel’s illegal occupation of the illegally occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, by offering services such as vacation homes and hotels in Israeli illegal settlements built on stolen Palestini…
@celesteh Dude, you apparently have the reading comprehension of a fifth-grader. Spend some time reading books until you learned to read before you call people like @fabio nazis.
You should apologize to @aral once you understood he was calling out the actual nazi who denies and defends an ongoing genocide whereas you attacked the two guys standing up for the victims of said genocide.
Because by calling Fabio antisemitic for his arguments you didn't understand, you are equating the supporters of genocide with all jews, and that makes you the biggest antisemite in this discussion.
"there’s no point in keeping Holocaust memorials all over the world while the very people who want their suffering to be remembered are inflicting exactly the same suffering to others."
and
"The problem is that Israel in its current incarnation wants people to stand up against the kind of things that happened to them 80 years ago"
is "equating the supporters of genocide with all jews"?
The intention may not be antisemitic, but as written this is very clearly conflating Israel and the jewish people.
@Mastodon "Consider this a formal complaint" is useless. Make a formal complaint to the admins, if that's your tactic. There's a perfectly functional "Report" button in every Mastodon client I've tried. You can even report the account to both your own instance's admin and the other account's admin.
@Flux I don’t know the guy and the block request sure seems to be reactionary BS, but also: the take he’s being dragged for is hella antisemitic. It conflates all Jews with the current Israeli government. The victims of the holocaust were not “Israel”, so arguing we should shut down memorials because the Israeli government is acting like they didn’t learn the lessons those memorials are intended to teach (a position I agree with!) makes no sense.
@Flux It makes exactly as much sense as how seemingly every Arab or Muslim with a public identity was expected to spend all their time condemning Al-Qaeda for years following 9/11.
His “it wasn’t just Jews but they get all the attention” line is pretty troubling, too. Not only does it undercut his own rationale, but if’s a mighty close rhyme with what we hear from some pretty awful folks.
If you know the guy, I might advise suggesting a little reflection.
Zionists make such a big deal out of their Jewishness that I don't think it's unreasonable to expect Jewish people to publicly distance from them - its a holocaust. Especially when one of the main Zionist weapons is pressuring people into silence with public smears, false accusations, cancelling etc.
And while we're talking of how unfair it is to paint all Jews the same way - that's exactly what Zionists do. Or even deny that anti-zionist Jews are truly Jewish.
And you don’t have to ask Jewish people who oppose Zionism and Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people to publicly distance themselves from Israel. They already have. And they’re being persecuted for it as we speak by Zionists and by Israel. You want antisemitism? Zionists’ and Israelis’ disdain for Holocaust survivors (because they see them as having been weak) is antisemitism. You want antisemitism? Zionists and Israelis getting to decide who is the “right kind of Jew” is antisemitism.
@GutterPoetry @Flux Uh, this whataboutism is not helping your argument look better. You don’t need to convince me Israel is behaving badly. I’m 100% on board. But the original suggestion was still antisemitic (“how can we get at the jews?”) and the “but they’re the real antisemites!” is… not the way.
@a @Flux Zero mention of an ongoing genocide is not what an org that opposes all genocide would do. Having IDF members on its board is not something an org that opposes an ongoing genocide would do. Those are the points Fabio raised.
But we have to walk on egg shells to condemn an ongoing genocide? No, I don’t think so.

Ikr! Before all that, I used to take taxis in the city, but didn't think much of it. In the 80s, drivers were mostly Iranians in my city, but people got along and were nice to each other. Rarely, did you even see women in Muslim prison suits, either.
