IT MUST BE STOPPED!
THE 10 STAGES OF GENOCIDE, AND HOW FAR PALESTINE IS ALONG WITH THEM
This will be using the UN's ten stages of genocide map (as seen above) as a base for each stage.
So far, palestine is within its ninth stage of genocide.
*although I do not believe isreal is a real or valid country, this will be referring to its citizens as "isrealis"
First Stage: Classification.
This stage is about us and them narratives. In the Holocaust it was Jewish vs Germans, in this it is Palestinians vs israelis.
The ‘us vs them’ narrative has been drilled into young "isreali's" minds for decades and has only gotten worse.
Second Stage: Symbolism
I do not believe there are any symbols to tell an isreali apart from a Palestinian person.
Most of the time it is based off their religion, however not all Palestinians are Muslim nor are all isrealis Jewish.
Instead of symbols, they segregate.
Third Stage: Discrimination
This stage is about taking things away from their target group. isreal has taken away their housing, their land, and their property as seen in the west bank.
Fourth Stage: Dehumanisation
Dehumanisation refers to distancing the target group from humans, and making people less inclined to empathize with them.
Isreal refers to Palestinians as both animals and derogatory words such as "whores" or "monsters."
Fifth Stage: Organization
This stage is about planning the genocide, and training.
Many isreali students are taught in order for them to grow up and become IDF soldiers. They are taught how to kill without remorse and enjoy it.
Sixth Stage: Polarisation
Polarisation is about the media and spreading hate about their target group in media.
The IDF not only go on international TV and talk about palestinian "terrorists" but also spread misinfo on social media.
(see this post)
Seventh Stage: Preparation
When preparing perpetrators use code words in order to make their intentions seem brighter.
Isreal calls it "land disputes" or "self defense" when it is a genocide fueled by colonialist ideologies.
Eight Stage: Persecution
Persecution is about rounding up their target group and committing mass killings.
Isreal has rounded Palestinians up into Gaza, an open air prison, and continues to bomb their homes, shelters, and hospitals.
There is nowhere for palestinians to go.
Stage Nine: Extermination
This is the stage we are on. Isreal is destroying hospitals, relief centers, communities, and families.
They are attempting to find and kill every palestinian. Class of 2024 has been canceled due to all students dying.
This cannot continue.
Stage Ten: Denial
If we continue to let isreal kill off Palestine, we will get here. To the point where zionists will deny the genocide entirely.
SPEAK UP. DO NOT LET IT COME TO THIS.

Rafah is now the last refuge for Palestinians in Gaza amid a still unfolding genocide, and it is the place where the international community could and should take action to prevent another Warsaw or Srebrenica.
This is the moment for every member of the global civil society, everyone who believes in human rights, justice and freedom for all, to speak up against the deafening silence of their political leaders and take a stance for the long suffering Palestinian people.
As the threat of a catastrophic Israeli invasion looms on the horizon in Rafah, we cannot continue to ignore the plight of Palestinian refugees, displaced many times over, sick, hungry and forced to resist a blatant ethnic cleansing campaign with nothing but their fragile bodies.
No one can claim ignorance about what’s happening today in Rafah, in Gaza, across Palestine. The truth is evident in the testimonies of the children living through the genocide, in the work of brave journalists on the ground documenting their own slaughter, in the carefully researched and sourced reports of experts, academics, human rights defenders and international institutions. Rafah is the final opportunity for the international community to come together for peace and dignity in Palestine. It’s time for Rafah to finally be truly safe and prosper. It is time for lifelong refugees like my aunt Rayya to find permanent safety and security. It is time for a ceasefire, and a free Palestine."
My entire twitter feed is people in Rafah saying they’re terrified, saying their good byes, and asking us to remember them in our prayers. Rafah is facing a massacre. It’s a genocide. We will not know the number of deaths until the morning.
YOUR SILENCE IS NOTICED.
SPEAK UP ABOUT PALESTINE.
DO NOT BE SILENT ON GENOCIDE.
THERE IS NO EXCUSE TO BE SILENT.

The world protests for Palestine 🇵🇸
Dr. Omar Suleiman on X: "It’s actually crazy that the worst could be yet to come. Keep praying. Keep protesting. Keep the pressure. We can’t get tired now." / X
Today 40 Palestinians died in an Israeli shelling of homes in central Gaza, while more than 100 were severely injured (majority women and children). Yesterday Israel bombed Syria, killing two. Israel also bombed Lebanon, killing a woman and a girl.
Just to be crystal clear—Israel is now simultaneously bombing Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria.

All eyes on Rafah. We cannot let this lose traction
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’ve seen so many posts of people arguing or being upset over this celebrity or that musician being shitty and supporting a genocide, not to say these conversations of people being held responsible shouldn’t happen, (they should). But if you’re going to spend so much time obsessing over celebrities, the least you can do is spend 2 minutes watching a video of someone who is actually in Palestine.
ALL EYES ON RAFAH
I, like countless others, am feeling frustrated, angry, utterly heartbroken and next to hopeless because of all that has been happening to the beautiful people in Gaza. I'm not good with words, but anyone who has been following the events unfolding in Palestine knows that posts about Palestine are what keep it from dying on the public eye, and I'm glad to see that the engagement and content has been going strong even after 4 months.
All the people in Palestine ask of us is to never stop fighting for them.
Don't stop speaking up.
Don't stop protesting.
Don't stop boycotting.
Don't stop posting.
Don't stop sharing resources.
Don't stop engaging with any and all pro-Palestinian content.
I'm hoping against hope for Palestine, because the only other thing I could do would be to give up hope entirely. And that's nowhere near being a fucking option.
EXACTLY!!!
i recently saw a video a little kid saving money to go back home to the north of gaza; and when he was asked what he was gonna do when he goes back, he said: "buy things, buy chocolate" and "play with his friends". i saw another video of 2 kids get emotional and happy because they finally got BREAD for food. these kids should only have to worry about getting some coins to buy their favourite snacks, or about going to school or having friends, not worry about whether they're going to die because of a fucking bomb.
if for whatever sick reason you think it's okay for people to go through a genocide, then could you at least have some empathy or compassion towards babies? literal kids. BABIES. get a fucking grip
Press it ya goobers!
Daily Reminder to Click for Palestine!
Thank you!
how absolutely outrageous is this????
the first statement says, “give others food, and tell them kind words"
the second statement, literally translated, means "may your fasting be accepted, your sins forgiven, and your iftar delicious" (iftar is the first meal we have after fasting from dusk till dawn, literally means breakfast)
they’re now tormenting palestinians with the things they don't have. a huge part of Ramadan is family gatherings for iftar, with different kinds of food and dessert. it's also about strengthening your faith with God as best as possible through prayers. now, how can palestinians in gaza have all of this when they lost their homes and families? the children are orphaned and the wives became widows. the mosques are demolished. there's not even CLEAN water for them to break their fast. they're being starved.
the IOF are also notorious for bombing and killing palestinians practicing Islam every year during Ramadan, so can you imagine what will happen now that they've been on a rampage for six months?
keep speaking about palestine. keep speaking about gaza. it keeps getting WORSE.

It kills me how everyday the posts and content about Palestine decrease because of how many people are getting killed everyday.
It also kills me how many stopped boycotting or has never even tried to boycott.
Somethings are so small to do and easy yet people don't even bother when it's a genocide that has been going and going and going not since October 7th but for decades.
I've been terrified for months for Gaza and Palestine, but I think I didn't quite grasp, that Lebanon is Israel's next target. We have to fight for them too.
guys i actually beg of you to not let palestine become an unpleasant flashback, a transient tumblr trend, a hasbeen subject that just faded away. as an arab—and specifically iraqi—girl, i know what it feels like to have family displaced all over the world as a result of western imperialism. i know what it feels like to not be able to step foot into your homeland because it’s no longer safe. as an american iraqi, raised in the us and insulated from my roots, it wasn’t until last summer that i was able to visit iraq for the first time, and even then my family was worried for my safety—in my own blood country. although nothing like what palestinians are experiencing right now, it might be the tiniest semblance of what it feels like to watch your country disintegrate in front of you.
and this is a universal arab experience. i volunteer weekly at a refugee center that serves middle eastern refugees, and every day i see the longing in their eyes when they speak of where they hail from. it’s safe to say that we will be getting a wave of palestinian refugees very soon: just another generation of arabs who can’t inhabit their own country.
arab culture is so rich, so profound, so beautiful. i am tired of being told by the world—through literal genocide—that it doesn’t mean anything. please never let this be forgotten. free palestine. free palestine. free palestine.
