Haaretz “leftist newspaper” 🥴
I hate this rag so much, it is the epitome of liberalism. These people love to get on their ivory tower, call out Bibi and his goons, and on rare occasions they even dare to criticize the occupation or portray Palestinians as human beings. But at the end of the day they are nothing but liberal zionists (which is considered leftist in the distorted overton window of the zionist regime) and so they favor the status quo of “Israeli democracy” above all else.
This reminded me of the fact Israel sterilised Jewish Ethiopian women.
And yet the Ethiopian Jews still serve in their Nazi army and wave their ugly blue and white flag…
The timing of this is especially awkward since the régime recently redeployed chemical weapons in Gaza, the same régime that taught U.S. police the asphyxiation technique that Derek Chauvin used on George Floyd, and the same régime that treats black lives with contempt.
We have not been able to breathe for 20 years now, during which we have been compelled to suffer and somehow live with missiles and rockets falling on our children, and this in order to avoid insofar as possible harming innocent people in the Gaza Strip.
The lack of self‐awareness is baffling. If Zionists truly wanted to know how any reasonable being could support Hamas, all that they have to do is spend a few minutes looking at the merciless destruction of Gaza and the more than 7,000 Palestinian civilians that the régime has massacred this month. There is really no excuse for them to keep scratching their heads at this point.
And before a Zionist responds with DARVO: again, look at the context. It isn’t the Palestinians’ fault that the Zionists decided to colonize their land and impoverish them. Claiming that Hamas were the ones who ‘started it’ only makes you look even more ignorant.
lol if anything they are taking exception with BLM rather than what’s going on in Israel
I boycott this trash so we can only see the the first line…
no more paywall, though idk if i’d advise others to read this. the rest of it is somehow more insufferable.

With Whom are Many U.S. Police Departments Training? With a Chronic Human Rights Violator – Israel
Baltimore law enforcement officials, along with hundreds of others from Florida, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Georgia, Washington state as well as the DC Capitol police have all traveled to Israel for training. Thousands of others have received training from Israeli officials here in the U.S.
These trainings put Baltimore police and other U.S. law enforcement employees in the hands of military, security and police systems that have racked up documented human rights violations for years. […] Public or private funds spent to train our domestic police in Israel should concern all of us. Many of the abuses documented, parallels violations by Israeli military, security and police officials.
Israeli forces trained cops in ‘restraint techniques’ at Minneapolis conference
Officers from the U.S. police force responsible for the killing of George Floyd received training in restraint techniques and anti-terror tactics from Israeli law enforcement officers.
In a chilling testimony, a Palestinian rights activist said that when she saw the image of Derek Chauvin kneeling on Mr. Floyd’s neck, she was reminded of the Israeli forces’ policing of the occupied territories.
Neta Golan, co-founder of International Solidarity Movement (ISM), said: “When I saw the picture of killer cop Derek Chauvin murdering George Floyd by leaning in on his neck with his knee as he cried for help and other cops watched, I remembered noticing when many Israeli soldiers began using this technique of leaning in on our chest and necks when we were protesting in the West Bank sometime in 2006.
“They started twisting and breaking fingers in a particular way around the same time. It was clear they had undergone training for this. They continue to use these tactics—two of my friends have had their necks broken but luckily survived—and it is clear that they [Israel] share these methods when they train police forces abroad in ‘crowd control’ in the U.S. and other countries including Sudan and Brazil.”
