Israelis can easily travel to Europe and the US. For example, in Germany, they can get citizenship if they can prove German descent. In other places they have advantaged programs for immigration compared to other non West countries. Choosing to stay is embracing Zionism. That’s the only peaceful solution, which obviously isn’t going to happen when 70-80% support the status quo and further expansionism.
No other country has this much popular support for an ethno-supremacist nationalist policy of extermination. Even the US, which is the most hated worldwide right now, sits at 30% support, at best. The “innocent” people of Israel (if you can call people who serve in the IDF that) can always go back to the countries they came from before colonizing a land that wasn’t theirs, that was stolen through murder and displacement.
I’m not pretending to know the solution, but the time for peaceful resolution has passed by at least 70 years. Any solution that comes now will involve violence against one side or the other. Thinking otherwise is utopian nonsense.

There comes a time when you have to admit that the apple is too rotten to be saved. Nothing will change anytime soon; if anything it will only get worse.
You guessed it, it’s the usual map:
The EU abstained because bla bla TLDR: they don’t want to pay reparations.
I suspect this is the reason why presidents in Europe (Italy, Germany, Ireland etc.) sometimes (rarely) call out this shit as morally reprehensible or illegal. Because they’re just figureheads for the government and don’t actually do anything about it. Meanwhile the PMs (which have actual executive power) actively collaborate with US/Israel and continue imperialism as normal.
Presidents are like the popes of liberal democracies: lots of fancy words to keep the masses placated, zero possibility of change.
Israel isn’t very used to adults that can shoot back at them, are they?

The images of this story are these ones. There was also a video interview of the mother.
But yes, article from www.aa.com.tr is shit
Feels very fitting for The Guardian to downplay how the profit motive inherent in capitalism contributes to enshittification, even when Doctorow’s original definition clearly includes it.
AWS has had major outages in UAE and Bahrain since 1 March. That’s a good start!
