Hamas attack Israel & subsequent genocide

OTD in 2012 the siege of the Palestinian refugee camp of Yarmouk began. Assad forces, backed by Russia, cut off all food and used starvation as a weapon.

I wonder how many were descendants or there because of the ethnic cleansing  by Israel and Herzog.

Seeing as we're wondering, I wonder will the potential renaming of a park in Dublin will bring some justice/ closure to them or Palestinians today.

Why would the Dublin City council at the time name it after this guy in the first place? Bonkers, probably no researchers, or was it a pile of cash lol

The Bank of Israel doesn't release medium-range forecasts. But its last annual report predicted that "the war is expected to have significant medium-term implications ('scars') on the Israeli economy.
"Defense expenditures are expected to increase relative to their prewar levels; the military will expand; it will be necessary to reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio – which has risen – to once again create fiscal space; the risk premium may remain high; the economy will have a lower international credit rating than before the war and [there will be] extensive expenditures on rehabilitating conflict areas and ongoing care for the many war casualties. All these are expected to have a negative impact on the economy's growth potential."

A drop in Israel's growth potential from 4 percent a year to between 3 and 3.5 percent, that is, a permanent loss of 0.5 to 1 percentage points in growth potential, will have a dramatic cumulative impact over the long term. If Israel remains at this moderate rate of growth for a decade, then at the end of the decade, its GDP will be 5 to 10 percent lower than it would have been if there had not been a war.
In terms of shekels, this means a GDP loss of between 100 billion and 250 billion shekels within a decade ($30.5 billion to $76.1 billion). In terms of per capita GDP, this means that every person in Israel will produce or earn between 8,000 and 16,000 shekels less every year.

Despite the cease-fire agreement signed between Israel and Hamas , the cultural boycott movement against Israel has only expanded in recent days, with several additional musicians joining the initiative to regionally restrict access to their songs on streaming platforms in Israel.

Artists who have recently joined the No Music for Genocide movement – which encourages artists to block access to their music over the war in Gaza and violence in the West Bank – include Clairo, My Bloody Valentine, Hot Chip, Nightmare, On Wax, Orbital and boygenius member Lucy Dacus.
Some of the most prominent artists who have joined the boycott so far include Lorde, Björk, Paramore, King Krule, Rina Sawayama, Japanese Breakfast, Massive Attack, of Montreal and Primal Scream.


The estate of late Oscar-winning Japanese musician and composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, a founding member of the innovative synth band Yellow Magic Orchestra, also announced on Monday that it is removing all of the composer's albums from streaming in Israel in support of Palestinians.

No kneecap can shout "up Hamas" at a concert, and most posters on here conveniently ignore the fact that Hamas actually murdered hundreds of concert goers on October 7th

Actually its borderline comical levels of hypocrisy and double standards on here

Not alone did no-one call for them to apologize, people like me who pointed it out were accused of engaging in a witch hunt

What exactly is anti-semitic about removing the name of a Zionist and naming the park after a Jewish person deserving of the honour?

Can you answer me how things are better for Syrians with the CIA trained, former ISIS 2nd in command, former FBI most wanted, now US backed leader Jolani in charge?

It's a genuine question. No doubt Assad was evil and a dictator but the same people aghast at him don't seem to be as bothered by a depraved ISIS extremist now ruling the roost who has

The world is a funny place I suppose. So many contradictions.

They did.

The IDF also murdered and burned 100's of Israelis that same day as per their internal Hannibal directive.

The IDF have been murdering Palestinians on a daily basis prior to this date and regularly talked about "mowing the lawn" in Gaza for years and years.

the 7th of October didn't happen in a vacuum.

This isn't condoning the actions of Hamas, it's just putting it in context.

I refer you to my earlier post about how one particular park with an overtly Jewish name was suddenly worthy of investigating. That's where that initial process has gotten us. As well as being antisemitic it is also petty, performative, embarrassing, childish, and in the long run probably counter productive.
