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...”

Less than seven percent of pre-conflict water levels available to Rafah and North Gaza, worsening a health catastrophe | Oxfam International (2025-02-17)

https://www.oxfam.org/en/press-releases/less-seven-percent-pre-conflict-water-levels-available-rafah-and-north-gaza
———

“Nearly 1,700 Kilometres of water and sanitation networks have been destroyed”

“In the North Gaza governorate, almost all water wells have been destroyed by the Israeli military... For the few whose homes remain standing, water is non-existent due to the destruction of rooftop storage tanks.

“In Rafah, over 90 per cent of water wells and reservoirs have been partially or completely damaged, and water production is less than five per cent of its capacity before the conflict.”

“… since the ceasefire, Israel continues to severely impair critical items needed to begin repairing the massive structural damage from its airstrikes.”

Nearly 400 Rabbis, Jewish Leaders Say 'No' to Trump Push for Ethnic Cleansing of Gaza | Common Dreams (2025-02-13)

https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-on-gaza
———

“Over 350 rabbis and dozens of Jewish public figures on Thursday placed a full-page advertisement in The New York Times protesting President Donald Trump's proposal to force all Palestinians out of the Gaza Strip and take over the coastal enclave …”

"’Trump has called for the removal of all Palestinians from Gaza,’ the ad states. ‘Jewish people say NO to ethnic cleansing!’"

"’Jewish teaching is clear: Trump is not God and cannot take away Palestinians inherent dignity or steal their land for a real estate deal,’ [one of the signatories Rabbi Yosef] Berman continued. "Trump's desire to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Gaza is morally abhorrent. Jewish leaders reject Trump's attempts to wring profit from displacement and suffering and must act to stop this heinous crime.’"

Dr Nadeem Crowe: NHS doctor punished for speaking up for Gaza (Canary, 2025-02-11)

https://www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/2025/02/11/dr-nadeem-crowe/
------

"The Canary has spoken to a doctor who is crowdfunding a legal challenge after his NHS bosses sought to punish him for speaking out on Israel’s genocide in Gaza. In August 2024, Royal Free London #NHS Trust suspended Dr Nadeem Crowe for 'potentially upsetting posts about the Israel – Gaza conflict'.

"Because he was a temporary (or ‘bank’) worker, his employment rights were not the same as permanent employees."

"Crowe is now seeking to challenge this discrimination at an employment tribunal..."

Israel confirms it is holding Gaza hospital chief Abu Safiya (BBC, 2025-01-03)

https://bbc.com/news/articles/cj30deeggd7o
———

“Israel has confirmed it is holding Gaza hospital director Dr Hussam Abu Safiya after earlier telling a local NGO that it was unaware of his case, sparking concern for his well being.”

“The statement did not offer an explanation for the confusion but repeated that he was suspected of being a ‘terrorist’ and for ‘holding a rank’ in Hamas…”

“On Thursday the IDF told Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI) that it had ‘no indication of the arrest or detention of the individual in question’"

“Meanwhile Amnesty head Agnès Callamard said Israeli authorities must ‘urgently disclose his whereabouts’".

“The right-of-center Polish daily #Rzeczpospolita (circulation of 274,000), on Friday reported … that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not attend events in #Poland marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz camp, for fear of being arrested in accordance with the order issued by the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

“The newspaper quoted Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Władysław Bartoszewski, who is responsible for coordinating the ceremony on January 27 with the participation of several dozen world leaders, who stated, ‘We are obliged to respect the decisions of the International Criminal Court (#ICC) in The Hague.’”

‘Emilia Perez’ wins big at European Film Awards 2024 (Screen Daily, 2024-12-07)

“The documentary prize was won by No Other Land, about the Israeli demolition of villages in Masafer Yatta in the West Bank. It is the latest in a string of wins for Berlinale premiere ...”

“Two of its co-directors – Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham and Palestinian activist Basel Adra – accepted the reward remotely by video feed. Adra said it was very hard to celebrate the award at a time when ‘the occupation is committing a genocide against my people,’ while Abraham said ethnic cleansing was being carried out against the Palestinian people in Gaza.

“Addressing European governments, Abraham said: ‘It’s not enough to demand a ceasefire. A ceasefire needs to be imposed.’ As they finished their acceptance speech, a shout of ‘Free Palestine’ rang out in the auditorium.”

“With tension mounting surrounding her solo show at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie, Nan Goldin delivered an impassioned speech at the exhibition’s opening in which she called on Germany to take seriously those who are seeking a ceasefire in Israel’s war in Gaza.”

“She went on to note a concurrent rise in Islamophobia that she said was being ‘ignored’ by the German state. ‘The weaponization of antisemitism is being aimed at the Palestinian community in this country and those who speak in support for them,’ she added. ‘The #ICC is talking about genocide. The #UN is talking about genocide. Even the #Pope is talking about genocide. Yet we’re not supposed to talk about this as genocide. Are you afraid to hear this, #Germany ?’”
