Congo Genocide funded by Western Consumption.

Reminder that while Sudan and Congo aren’t receiving as much media coverage, there is currently what people are calling a silent genocide in both countries. https://t.co/E5yRz6B6o6

A startling admission is buried in the @nytimes today: Israeli officials admit they are fine with “mass civilian casualties” in Gaza. The Israeli officials also cite the dropping of atomic bombs on Japan to justify the scale of expected civilian death in Gaza. Unconscionable.

Despite the International Criminal Court being created by the Rome Statute in 1994, here’s why Israel and the US have never been held accountable for war crimes and why victims of Western wars will not likely see justice anytime soon🧵#Gaza

Israel has cut off all internet and cellular communication in Gaza.

They don’t want the world to see what they are doing.

We must not look away from this violence, especially during a blackout.

We need a #CeasefireNow.

This is what genocide looks like. These are the 2913 Palestinian children killed by the Israeli military this month, as of Thursday, October 26. As the Israeli airstrikes on Gaza intensify, we recognize with horror and grief that this death toll is already inaccurate.

For everyone who has wondered how genocide is allowed to happen, we can see it clearly now. An entire people – once Jews, now Palestinians – are systematically dehumanized and vilified until people become indifferent or even enthusiastic about slaughtering them.

‘This was murder’ -UC Officer Indicted In #SamDubose Shooting Death

Hamilton County district attorney Joe Deter called the murder of Sam Dubose both “senseless” and the result of a “chicken crap stop.”

Israel-Gaza conflict: Right-wing Israeli politician calls for Gazans to be ’concentrated in camps’ – and then all resistance ‘exterminated’

A senior Israeli politician has called for the “conquest of the entire Gaza Strip” and the deportation of Palestinians to make way for Jewish settlers.

Mystic massacre

The Mystic massacre (May 26th 1637) was the worst massacre in the genocide known as the Pequot War. White Americans killed 400 to 900 Pequots, mostly women, children and old men. They burned down their main town, Mystic (in present-day Connecticut), killing those who tried to escape. Most were burned alive.

No Thanks to Thanksgiving

By Robert Jensen, AlterNet

“One indication of moral progress in the United States would be the replacement of Thanksgiving Day and its self-indulgent family feasting with a National Day of Atonement accompanied by a self-reflective collective fasting.

In fact, indigenous people have offered such a model; since 1970 they have marked the fourth Thursday of November as a Day of Mourning in a spiritual/political ceremony on Coles Hill overlooking Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts, one of the early sites of the European invasion of the Americas.”

Genocide and THE THANKSGIVING MYTH

By S. Brian Willson

…

“Let us recognize that accounts of the first Thanksgiving are mythological, and that the holiday is actually a grotesque celebration of our arrogant ethnocentrism built on genocide.”

…

After serving in the Vietnam War, S. Brian Willson became a radical, nonviolent peace activist and pacifist.

Community Village‘s insight:

This post has a number of drawings I hadn’t seen before and it covers the history of brutal U.S. oppression from the U.S. East coast, to West coast, then all the way to the Philippines.

I never knew about the “kill every one over ten” by General Jacob H. Smith in 1901.

Happy National Genocide (Thanksgiving) Day!

…

“People always tell me to forget the past. I should just let it go and move on. Why do people of color always have to forget?! Would you tell a Jewish person to forget about the holocaust and just move on?! Would you tell the family of those who lost their lives on 9/11 to just forget about it?! So why are our tragedies forgettable and others are not?! I WILL NEVER forget! I will ALWAYS honor those who lost their lives unjustifiable.”
