"Criticizing the #Israeli government and its policies is not #antisemitic." I agree. However, depending upon the style one criticizes the Israeli government, it can beget discrimination or hatred towards residents who have little control over the whims of their corrupt government, such as children, conscriptees, or residents who cannot vote in Israeli elections (such as some residents who live in Israel but identify as Palestinian).

Thousands of demonstrators packed Tel Aviv's Habima Square on Thursday, calling on the #Israeli government to agree a deal to end the war in #Gaza

Following the main rally, some protesters blocked nearby streets and were forcibly dispersed by police, who also detained some individuals.

Some of the female protesters were called "whore traitors"

Or "lesbians'

#Israel attacked the Cairo Elementary School for Girls in central #Gaza City just as people had gathered in the school yard for Friday prayers, according to multiple eyewitnesses. Many of the displaced in the school are from areas in northern Beit Hanoun, which has been nearly completely destroyed and emptied by the #Israeli military. So far, Israel has not published even a perfunctory justification for the strike and the Israeli military did not immediately respond to questions submitted by Drop Site about the attack.

Drop Site News · Israel Bombs Gaza School With U.S.-Made Missile During Friday PrayersBy Abdel Qader Sabbah

Israel Is Now Blaming the UN for Its Famine. Here’s the Reality.

A man-made famine is imminent in Gaza and its people require at least 600 trucks a day to stave it off, as Israel deflects blame to the UN.

The #Israeli government has pivoted to a new deflection: The famine in #Gaza is not the result of #Israel’s publicly announced March 2 blockade of all food entering Gaza, nor is it connected to the Israeli- and U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which replaced the UNRWA aid system Israel shut down with its own militarized version in late May. Instead, according to the new Israeli campaign, the blame lies with the #UnitedNations. “Hundreds of aid trucks have entered Gaza with Israel’s approval, but the supplies are standing idle, undelivered,” the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared on X. “The reason? The #UN refuses to distribute the aid.”

Amid rising starvation in the #Gaza Strip, an #Israeli government minister said on Thursday that #Israel had no duty to alleviate hunger in the territory and was seeking to expel its population.

Amichay Eliyahu, a far-right lawmaker who leads Israel’s Heritage Ministry, said in a radio interview that “there is no nation that feeds its enemies,” adding that “the British didn’t feed the Nazis, nor did the Americans feed the Japanese, nor do the Russians feed the Ukrainians now.” He concluded that the government was “rushing toward Gaza being wiped out...

Continued thread

Here's #NewYork Mayoral Candidate #ZohranMamdani, who literally was Anti #Israel & Pro #Palestine / #Gaza, literally saying Israel has the right to exist even though there's many easy ways to answer it without legitimizing the #Israeli bullshit.

No #Progressive #News Outlets called him out on this.
