Journalist Rips Palestinian ‘Terrorism’ Narrative to Shreds

Israel has been calling Palestinian fighters “terrorists” to justify its slaughter of Gaza.

Breakthrough News journalist, Eugene Puryear, rips this narrative apart, explaining the long history of oppressed and colonized people being demonized and called terrorists and savage to justify the continued occupation of those people. No different than the Native resistance to American colonization, slave rebellions in the Americas, the Haitian Revolution, Palestinians are resisting Israeli colonialism, not out of bloodlust as the media has portrayed it, but because of decades of land thefts, massacres, second-class citizenship and the denial of the right to return that has persisted for decades.

Re: the source, of interest: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/ynetnews/

In general, it's useful to understand the bias of the news sources you read. But bias is not the same thing as credibility.

Since this is not a service you provide to all articles you read, this is a pretty ghoulish comment in this context.

A position in the war cabinet has been left open for Opposition Leader Yair Lapid, who has refused to join the government if the far-right Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit parties remain in it.

Yeah, this is fucked.

Thank you for always using invidious and piped links. Google doesn't deserve our data.

Interestingly, John Oliver said nothing about construction standards, though I'd be surprised if it's not as huge an issue for mobile homes as it is for other recently constructed homes. The primary problem seems to be people not owning the land beneath their homes.

Obligatory fuck Frank Rolfe and the The Carlyle Group.
