Uplifting in the most dystopian ways.

Can someone remind me, what is the bullshit reason they ban the Palestinian people from fishing in their own waters again?

They can get food from the fish

Good question. Are they even trying to justify what they’re doing anymore?

for their safety

Technically True. The IOF will blow them up if they try to feed themselves by fishing.

WE'RE PROTECTING YOU FROM US!

yes, that's literally the reasoning.

Israel is a settler colonial power who don't want any Palestinian in Palestine

I hope this story is true, but I haven't found a news article that verifies this yet.

i'll be surprised if you can find any at all considering the media blackout of this topic. the only way you're going to know is through your personal relationships w the people in gaza like this woman in the video has through her extended family.

i can't imagine what it's like trying to convince the world to give a rat's ass about your cousins, aunts & uncles slowly being starved & bombed to death and a huge majority of the world intentionally choosing to ignore it.

There are Palestinian journalists reporting from Gaza. And I do check in with news orgs that use their reporting, and independent reporting.

I sincerely hope these tiktok videos are true. But outside of tiktok, instagram, facebook, reddit posting the same video, I have not seen a Palestinian journalist report on this.

I'm not trying to put you down, but I'm skeptical to accept videos at face value because it's easy for people on social media to create false narratives and upload them for content. I'm just hoping for a journalist to verify this story.

Palestinians need to take one out of the Zionist playbook and start hunting down supporters of Israel around the world.

It's the only way for them to fight back and the Zionists brought this on themselves.

there's a lot of overlap between zionists & the ruling class; the palestinians are vastly outmatched if they tried.
