Orwellian!
They want you to believe that defending the Palestinian people’s legitimate right to DEFEND themselves and to RESIST the occupation and usurpation of their homeland is “terrorism”, a “crime” worse than the CRIME of murdering almost 5000 Palestinian children in less than four weeks.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want you to believe that chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is a “hate crime”, a “crime” worse than target bombing ambulances, hospitals, schools, and refugee camps killing hundreds of innocent civilians.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want you to believe that holding the Palestinian flag is “antisemitic”, a “crime” worse than keeping two and half million people in a concentration camp, without food, water, electricity, while flattening entire neighbourhood on the heads of the inhabitants.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want you to believe that the legitimate Palestinian resistance to a seventy-five years of occupation is “terrorism”, and the bombardment of two and half million people to smithereens is “self defence”.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want to you believe that “offending” the feeling of some-person, on his/her say-so, is far more serious “hate crime” than the slaughter of over almost 10000 innocent men, women and children in less than a month of constant carpet bombardment.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want to you believe that being concerned about some group’s sensitivities is far more humane than stopping the crime of Genocide and Extermination against another group of people.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
They want you to believe that some humans are more humans than others.
🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
