'No Other Land' Oscars Speech Calls for Stop of 'Ethnic Cleansing' in Gaza (Variety, 2025-03-02)

“Despite the film’s critical acclaim and Oscar win, it still remains without a U.S. distributor. In January, Abraham told Variety that he took the lack of distribution ‘as something that’s completely political. We’re obviously talking about the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank, and it’s very ugly…The conversation in the United States appears to be far less nuanced — there is much less space for this kind of criticism, even when it comes in the form of a film.’

“‘No Other Land’ had a limited theatrical run in New York City starting Jan. 31 and Los Angeles starting Feb. 7.”

Israel Says It Is Blocking All Aid, Supplies From Entering Gaza | HuffPost (2025-03-02)

“Israel said Sunday it is stopping the entry of all goods and supplies into the Gaza Strip and warned of ‘additional consequences’ if Hamas does not accept a new proposal for an extension of the ceasefire.

“Hamas accused Israel of trying to derail the fragile truce and said its decision to cut off aid was ‘cheap extortion, a war crime and a blatant attack on the (ceasefire) agreement.’”

Germany's Obsession With Defending Israel and Criminalizing Speech Aided AfD's Rise (Drop Site News, 2025-02-22)

“The far-right party, predicted to finish second in tomorrow's election, doesn't need to win—core parts of its agenda have already become mainstream.”

“Germany’s support for Israel, known as the #Staatsräson, has become a major domestic political issue in recent years and especially since … October 7 2023, with the country using harsh laws intended to combat neo-Nazis against Palestinian activists.”

“… the German mainstream’s rejection of international law and civil liberties and the rise of its far right are intrinsically linked. Germany’s far-right party, the Alternative for #Germany (#AfD), has played a key role in forefronting Staatsräson for its own purposes—using the topic as a wedge issue to demonize migrants from Muslim countries as well as left-wing activists.”

They Tried to Silence Her - They Failed | Francesca Albanese's Berlin Keynote on Gaza Genocide (DiEM25 | Youtube, 2025-02-20)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVxvrGVxuis

"Despite police intimidation and last-minute venue changes, #FrancescaAlbanese, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, delivered a historic speech in #Berlin, at an event organised by #DiEM25, Jewish Voice for a Just Peace in the Middle East, Eye4palestine and the Gaza Committee Berlin.

"After the original venue was pressured into canceling the event, Junge Welt stepped in at the last minute to ensure this critical discussion could take place. But those who sought to silence it failed. Over 2,700 people tuned in live throughout the 8 hours of proceedings as Albanese exposed the brutal reality: the genocide in Gaza is undeniable, #Germany is complicit, and free speech and international law are under attack."

West Bank refugees reel from Israeli offensive (Hanno Hauenstein | +972 Magazine, 2025-02-21)

https://www.972mag.com/jenin-tulkarem-west-bank-refugee-camps-iron-wall/
———

“Displaced from Jenin and Tulkarem, Palestinian residents say Israel is waging a deliberate campaign to make the northern refugee camps unlivable.”

“Now in its fifth week, ‘Operation Iron Wall’ has since expanded [from #Jenin] to three more refugee camps in the northern West Bank, displacing an additional 20,000 people from #Tulkarem camp, Nur Shams camp, and Al-Far’a camp. The Israeli military claims to be targeting armed resistance groups in these areas, but has produced meager evidence of its achievements in this regard. And as soldiers lay waste to civilian infrastructure on the ground, fighter jets and drones drop missiles from the sky…”

When a Jew shot by another Jew cries 'Death to Arabs!': Mizrahim can continue to deny their identity, but they cannot shed their skin. The Miami shooter’s bullets remind them: after all, you’re Arab too. (+972 Magazine, 2025-02-19)

https://www.972mag.com/miami-shooting-mizrahi-jews-arab/
———

“an American Jew goes out to hunt Palestinians on the streets of Miami, mistakenly identifies a father and son — both Israeli Jews — as Palestinian, and immediately unloads a magazine on them... At the hospital, the son publishes a post saying that he and his father ‘survived an attempted murder motivated by antisemitism,’ signing off the post with the popular Israeli slogan, ‘Death to Arabs.’”

“A Mizrahi Jew can change his or her last name, distance themselves from any Arab element in their identity and heritage, and fully embrace Western culture, but they cannot shed their skin…”

The Blogs: Berlinale Faces Backlash Over Speech | Michael Kuenne | The Times of Israel (2025-02-18)

#Berlinale2025
“… during the screening of the movie Queerpanorama. Hong Kong film director and screenwriter [Jun Li] read a statement on behalf of Iranian actor Erfan Shekarriz.”

[excerpts from the statement]

“Whilst you watch this movie, millions of Palestinian people are suffocating under the cruel settler-colonial regime of Israel supported by the West. The German government and its cultural organizations like the Berlinale are contributing in some way or other to the apartheid genocide and ruthless killing and annihilation of the Palestinian people.”

“while you are sitting here watching this movie, I would ask you to show respect for the Palestinian women, children, men, and brothers and sisters who have died and lost all their belongings under the hands of the occupation funded by Germany since 1948...”
