Her defeat is another loss for progressives in a race defined by Democratic divisions over the war in Gaza, with pro-Israel groups pouring millions into a campaign to oust her from office.
It’s not even news, in that, it’s not new, they’ve been around for years. A friend of mine went into the West Bank camps a while ago and struggled to find people who hadn’t been arrested, beaten/tortured. Every day the IDF go in and take 5-10 people for no reason at all.
It’s happened since Israel’s creation. Next time an apologist tells you how the Palestinians left willingly, ask them about the Deir Yassin massacre.
From 5:00 A.M. until about 11:00 A.M. there was a systematic slaughter, with them going from house to house. From the eastern edge of the village nobody came out unhurt. Whole families were slaughtered. At 6:00 in the morning they caught 21 young people from the village, about 25 years old, they stood them in a row, near where the post-office is today, and executed them. Many women who watched this horrifying spectacle went crazy, and some are in institutions to this day. A pregnant woman, who was coming back with her son from the bakery, was murdered and her belly was smashed, after her son was killed before her eyes. In one of the conquered village houses a Bren machine gun was set up, which shot everyone who got in its line of fire. My cousin went out to see what happened to his uncle, who was shot a few minutes before, and he was killed too. His father, who went out after him, was murdered by the same Bren, and the mother, who came to find out what happened to her loved ones, died beside them. Aish eydan, who was a guard in Givat Shaul, came to see what was happening, and he was killed.
The apologists are out in force after all the news this week about Israel’s torture camps.

It’s sad that I actually could believe that now.
Fucking Israel did a complete 180 in my head after this bullshit
