@socialistadri @KweenInYellow @hasanthehun Oh my god. This is just GWAM if she was Israeli and decided to be a pop star instead 🤣

"HAMAS HAS NEVER CREATED SOMETHING LIKE THIS" -@hasanthehun reacts to Netta Barzilai and her music is absolutely AWFUL. 😭

Claims that the Palestinians were in 1948 ordered to evacuate their homes and homeland by Arab leaders in a series of radio broadcasts has been a perennial Hasbara Symphony Orchestra favourite since the Nakba, and continues to be widely promoted to this day. The BBC journalist and United Nations official Erskine Barton Childers (not to be confused with his father, Ireland's fourth president, Erskine Hamilton Childers) thoroughly debunked this claim more than half a century ago in his article, "The Other Exodus" published in The Spectator on 12 May 1961. Childers reviewed the comprehensive archives of Arab radio broadcasts compiled during that period by both the BBC monitoring station in Cyprus and its US counterpart, the Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS) run by the CIA, and found nothing. I have posted a link to Childers's article in the comments, which is worth reading because it includes details of additional fabrications concocted by Israeli officials to further this foundational hasbara myth. Abba Eban, then Israel's permanent representative to the UN and later foreign minister, and easily its most celebrated diplomat, for example claimed that the Greek Catholic Archbishop of Haifa, George Hakim, "fully confirmed" that Palestinians were encouraged to flee by their leaders. Yet, according to Childers: "I wrote to His Grace [Hakim], asking for his evidence of such orders. I hold signed letters from him, with permission to publish, in which he has categorically denied ever alleging Arab evacuation orders; he states that no such orders were ever given. He says that his name has been abused for years; and that the Arabs fled through panic and forcible eviction by Jewish troops." This is the same Abba Eban who on 6 June 1967 falsely informed the UN Security Council that Israel had launched the June War the previous day in response to a series of non-existent attacks on Israel on the morning of 5 June by the Egyptian air force and artillery units. I was previously unaware that the Israeli archives also include records of these radio broadcasts. As the British-Israeli historian Benny Morris reports below, he went through these records and also found that such broadcasts, whether by local Palestinian or Arab leaders, simply do not exist. While the research conducted by Childers and more recently Morris is of course useful in providing official confirmation that such broadcasts are a figment of the Zionist imagination, logic alone should suffice to debunk this myth. In May 1948, the Arab states intervened in Palestine to put an end to the mass expulsions of Palestinians, which since November 1947 already numbered in the hundreds of thousands, and to defeat the Israeli forces responsible for this monumental crime. Does it make any sense that prior to their intervention they would have ordered hundreds of thousands of civilians to clog every road they hoped to use to enter Palestine, for miles and days on end? Of course not. As for the silly claim that the objective of the Arab intervention was genocide, there is no evidence for it, and the conduct of the Arab militaries during the Palestine War supports this conclusion. Nor was it the case that the Arab intervention was a coordinated military campaign to eradicate the nascent Israeli state. Some of the participating Arab states, Syria and Iraq, did have this as an objective. Transjordan clearly did not. Its leadership had already cut a deal with the Zionist leadership to partition Palestine between them and prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state. Armed conflict between Israel and Transjordan in fact ensued only after Israeli forces reneged on their agreement and initiated seizures of territory beyond the partition boundary. Egypt's position was more ambiguous. It seemed to be primarily motivated by rivalry with Jordan, and ensuring Jordan did not become the main Arab power in Palestine. In short, no Arab state wanted to see the emergence of the Israeli state, but in most cases Arab leaders had more pressing priorities. Coordination between them was primarily notable for its absence. Arab public opinion, by contrast, considered the failure of their leaders to successfully confront the Zionist project nothing short of treason, and it served as a catalyst for more than a decade of revolutions, coups, and uprisings throughout the region.

Israel has killed 117 Lebanese medical workers in targeted attacks on ambulances and medical centers since March 2. Three of the four paramedics Israel killed today are shown in the photograph below. Israeli strikes between March 2 and May 16 have also killed at least 2,969 people and wounded 9,112 others, including 18 killed and 124 wounded on Friday. A majority of the people killed in Israel’s indiscriminate bombardments are civilians.

Breaking🚨: Kareem Nassar was killed by Israel less than 24 hours after his wedding in an airstrike on Gaza City. I don’t have words anymore. I can’t even bear it. 💔

💢 Three Palestinians were killed and others wounded, including children, in Israeli strikes on Gaza Saturday evening, according to Palestinian Online. Israeli aircraft struck a civilian vehicle in the Al-Nasr neighborhood west of Gaza City, killing Baha Zaki Baroud and Abdul Karim Ma’in Nassar. In Jabalia camp in northern Gaza, Mahmoud Abu Sisi was killed in an airstrike near the Abu Hussein school. Several others, including children, were wounded in both attacks. In Khan Younis in southern Gaza, Israeli forces opened fire on civilians near the Abu Hamid roundabout, along with artillery shelling in the city’s eastern areas. The attacks come as Gaza’s Health Ministry reported 13 killed and 57 wounded over the past 48 hours amid continued Israeli violations of the October ceasefire agreement.

On the first episode of the live audience TV recording of Everything is Political, Mia Kalifa (@miakhalifa) Chris Smalls (@Shut_downAmazon) Susan Abulhhawa (@susanabulhawa) Rahma Zein (@Rahmazeinegypt) and Samira Mohyeddin (@SMohyeddin) discuss Hasan Piker (@hasanthehun) and the bipartisan hate he receives.

David Pakman is a fucking asshole who lied to his audience for years about Israel, consistently falls for far-right propaganda about Latin America, the crypto ads, and the fact that he’d been collaborating with the rapist idiot Destiny and only ceased when it was no longer profitable. @dpakman you are obsolete, your anti-arab racism and Islamophobia are not only appalling, but a liability for the Democrats. Find a new hobby.

If we want to change the Democratic Party, we gotta change the kind of Democrats who get elected to Congress. Honored to have @AOC, who's done just that, supporting our campaign. On Tuesday, May 19, #Philly has the power to make history by electing Chris Rabb to Congress. #PA03

We will save us by showing up. Philly, let's show up on Tuesday, May 19 and make history! Help us send a fighter to Congress in #PA03 rabbvolunteer.com

The full segment of Hasan responding AND REFUTING David Pakman's claim that Hasan had stated that Pakman had an "AIPAC handler". Hasan shows proof that he never said that. This segment also delves into the recent drama of Hasan "platforming" those with differing ideologies.

@socialistadri @T_blazian David Pakman is a virulent Zionist

@juliabracadabra Maybe we should get candidates willing to post thirst pics? Looking at you Mr Show 😆

we need candidates worth posting free bikini pics for on twitter dot com again

@NylaFoxx__ @antipiker I can’t say I envy Los Angelino voters. Then again the local political candidates here in Australia ain’t the best either 😅😅😅

@antipiker her gift was the time he wasted on her lmao

wait hasan didn’t have any gifts for her 😭

Today, we recognize the Nakba never ended. The genocide in Gaza and horrific erasure of communities across Palestine & Lebanon must end now. In Congress, I will join @RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN on a resolution to recognize the Nakba and reaffirm Palestinian refugees' right of return.

US requesting Israel to divert Palestinian tax money into the 'Gaza plan' is triply unlawful: -withholding is illegal -the diversion would amount to unlawful appropriation -the Gaza plan is the burial of Palestinian self-determination. This must stop Palestine is not for pillage
