TIL, thanks. I’m a bit surprised to hear about racism experienced by African-origin Jews in Israel given that, but at the same time the extremists there are pretty extreme so I probably shouldn’t surprised.

The recent rate increase of the genocide is resulting in more people understanding the inhumanity of the (mostly-European) settler colonialists.

"When the settlers saw the army, they were encouraged and started shooting live bullets," Abu Ali said. He added that they clubbed those injured with sticks after they had fallen to the ground.

Thanks for the reply! I did find a discussion saying Deflect would have US infrastructure, so it seems like the CDN is going to be the hard part.

Do SJW and Fedecan have an explicit commitment not to store user data in the United States? If not, is that technically feasible given the hosting available? Just to be clear, I’m not asking about data that’s obviously published (e.g. posts), but data that’s private (email addresses, IP address logs, etc). Thanks!

Test confirms meth contamination at Fort Collins Mennonite Fellowship (www.coloradoan.com)

Sharps containers for disposal of used needles are located in the front and back of the church and in all of the church's bathrooms because church staff, guests and officers expressed concerns about needles being in the area, police said in the report.

Following an officer's contact with church staff at the building in October, officers offered to empty one of the sharps containers for staff. When an officer brought the sharps container back to the police department and tested the needles inside, they came back presumptive positive for methamphetamine, according to the police report.

The Fellowship offers services to a large number of homeless people. Or offered, before they were shut down. Such a helpful officer to volunteer to empty their sharps container!

Israeli settlement plans will 'bury' idea of Palestinian state, minister says in c/world@lemmy.world

So people who believe in democracy should believe that isn’t the place for a state that wants to deem itself “Jewish” then.

Israeli settlement plans will 'bury' idea of Palestinian state, minister says (www.bbc.com)

Israeli far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has said plans to build more than 3,000 homes in a controversial settlement project in the occupied West Bank will "bury the idea of a Palestinian state".

The so-called E1 project between Jerusalem and the Maale Adumim settlement has been frozen for decades amid fierce opposition internationally. Building there would effectively cut off the West Bank from occupied East Jerusalem and significantly obstruct its territorial contiguity.

Smotrich said it would thwart the idea of a Palestinian state "because there is nothing to recognise and no one to recognise".

…

"This is Zionism at its best - building, settling and strengthening our sovereignty in the Land of Israel."

Who were the Al Jazeera journalists killed by Israel in Gaza? (www.bbc.com)

Five Al Jazeera journalists were killed by an Israeli strike in Gaza City on Sunday - among them 28-year-old correspondent Anas al-Sharif, who had reported prominently on the war since its outset.

[…]

The targeted attack on a tent used by journalists has drawn strong international condemnation including from the UN, Qatar where Al Jazeera is based, and media freedom groups.

[…]

Israel had previously accused Sharif of being a member of Hamas's military wing - something he and his employer strongly denied. Reporters Without Borders (RSF), a media freedom group, said the allegations against him were "baseless" and called on the international community to intervene. "Without strong action from the international community to stop the Israeli army... we're likely to witness more such extrajudicial mur

I think a it takes a real rube to believe a group that massacres entire villages would never lie to you.

BBC News and news agencies warn journalists in Gaza at risk of starvation in c/world@lemmy.world

[–] MyEdgyAlt@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago

BBC News and three leading news agencies have expressed desperate concern for journalists in Gaza, who they say are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families.

Did…did you read the first sentence in the article, or just the headline? Things are bad enough under Israel’s siege that news agencies are worried about journalists starving too.

Israelis are expanding their West Bank land grabs and even terrorizing Christian Palestinian-American villages there.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm2mknzn99eo

Separately, the US embassy in Jerusalem has said it condemns recent violence by Israeli settlers against the Christian town of Taybeh in the West Bank. Most of the land there is owned by Palestinian-Americans and, according to locals, some 300 residents are US passport holders. Attacks, including by masked men torching cars and attacking homes, have ramped up. On Monday, settlers set fields ablaze close to a fifth-Century church, leading to a call for international action from the town's priests.

The West Bank shows us that for Gaza, Hamas surrendering would at best change the speed of the Zionist genocide of Palestinians, but not put a stop to it.
