#STOPtheGENOCIDE

Dear Israelis, do not fucking contact Gazans on here asking them to help you “understand about people living in Gaza”. And don’t fucking use my name when doing that (“saw that you had a call with someone else I follow on Mastodon (aral)”).

The fucking privilege, man.

Your country is committing genocide. Do you understand that? Do you understand that Palestinians in Gaza are trying to fucking survive right now as your country starves them and shoots them and bombs them and they don’t exist to satisfy your fucking curiosity?

Seriously, what the fuck?

You want to do something? Donate to their fundraisers so they don’t starve to death at the hands of your fucking country and otherwise hang your fucking heads in shame and shut the fuck up.

(I was alerted to this by someone from Gaza and they’re not the only one contacted in this way. The person in question has been blocked.)

Yesterday in #Amsterdam, hundreds of people came to a spontaneous protest in Spui square. 🇵🇸

The Dutch government is complicit in this genocide. They continue to arm Israel, invest in its economy, and shield them diplomatically.

Real change must come from the people. Brick by brick, wall by wall, we will make the system fall!

What Americans think about Israel’s military action in #Gaza, according to a new Gallup poll

By LINLEY SANDERS and AMELIA THOMSON-DEVEAUX

Updated 2:11 PM EDT, July 29, 2025

WASHINGTON (AP) — "Support for Israel’s military action in Gaza has declined substantially among U.S. adults, with only about one-third approving, according to a new Gallup poll — a drop from the beginning of the war with Hamas, when about half of Americans approved of #Israel’s operation.

"The new polling also found that about half of U.S. adults now have an unfavorable view of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin #Netanyahu, the most negative rating he has received since he was first included in Gallup polling in 1997. The poll was conducted from July 7-21, while reports of starvation in Gaza led to international criticism of Israel’s decision to restrict food aid but before President Donald Trump expressed concern over the worsening humanitarian situation.

"The findings underscore the Israeli government’s dramatic loss of support within the U.S. But not everyone is shifting — instead, the war has become more politically polarizing. The rising disapproval is driven by Democrats and independents, who are much less likely to approve of Israel’s actions than they were in November 2023, weeks after Hamas’ Oct. 7 surprise attack and after Israel expanded its ground offensive in Gaza.

"Republicans, on the other hand, remain largely supportive of both Israel’s military actions and #Netanyahu."

AP News · Support for Israel's military action in Gaza drops: Gallup pollA new poll shows support for Israel’s military action in Gaza has dropped among U.S. adults, with only about one-third approving. This marks a decline from the beginning of the war with Hamas, when about half of Americans approved of Israel's action. The Gallup poll shows about half of U.S. adults now have an unfavorable view of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The rising disapproval is driven by Democrats, independents and younger Americans, who are much less likely to approve of Israel’s actions than they were in November 2023, just after Israel expanded its ground offensive in Gaza. Republicans remain largely supportive of both Israel's military actions and Netanyahu.

This is how you do it.

Show these arrogant, depraved fuckers they’re not welcome in civilisation as long as they’re committing genocide and until the Palestinian people are free and safe.

Look at those two little fuckers standing proudly on the ship holding the Israeli flag.

Fuck those two especially.

Call to action: Noise demo against genocide

Spui, Amsterdam, woensdag 30 juli om 18:00 CEST

Palestinian journalist Bisan Owda has called on the world to take the streets on July 30th with empty pots and pans to make noise.

We refuse to stay silent while Gaza is being starved. The Dutch government must impose maximum sanctions on Israel to help stop the genocide.

📢 Join us at the protest. Make noise for those being silenced.

📍 Where: Het Spui, Amsterdam

📅 When: July 30, 2025

🕕 Time: 18:00

🔔 Bring: Pots, pans and a spoon

While a genocide is livestreamed before our eyes, the Dutch government is taking performative measures and refuses to heed our call for a full arms embargo. Summoning the ambassador and imposing an entry ban on two ministers is nowhere near real measures. The adjustment of a few licenses is just a token gesture. Boycott Israel completely and do it now!

Bring your despair, anger, and grief to the streets. Let it be heard.

Stop the genocide now. Free Palestine!

Israel, it’s gonna open up some more aid corridors in Gaza because of the pressure from all the countries in the world that are accusing it of genocide. I’m happy that they’re doing that. It’s way too late and also I don’t trust them. It just means they’ll have free rain to start shooting the people that are trying to get the food. I don’t trust a word that they say anymore.

To all former U.S. military that are in Israel shooting Palestinian civilians trying to get food, FU🤬🖕🏼

Ik was bij de sit-in in Amsterdam CS. Met m’n dochter, m’n ouders, twee van m’n zussen. En ongeacht de uitkomst van zo’n protest is het goed om te beseffen, echt te erváren dat er een immens verschil bestaat tussen het cynisme van de politiek en de gevoelens van échte mensen met een hart. 🍉

This evening there were sit-ins and demonstrations for #Gaza on almost every Dutch central station. It were the most visited station sit-ins as far as I can remember. This is from #Utrecht CS were I attended. I guess there were almost 1000 people (not a few hundred like the media told us). The front hall was completely full (only a narrow strip, so people could get to their trains and busses). In #Amsterdam CS there were according to the same media 1500 people.

After the sit-in, there was a march through Hoog Catharijne (main mall) and the old city center, ending at the city hall.

Stop calling this a bloody war. This is not war. It’s genocide. Palestinians are not starving, they are BEING STARVED BY ISRAEL.

" Jul 21, 2025
The UN humanitarian agency (OCHA) has described Israel’s latest forced displacement threat as “yet another devastating blow” to Palestinians in Gaza.
According to OCHA, “initial estimates indicate that between 50,000 and 80,000 people” were in the area affected by the threat, with at least 1,000 families fleeing the area already.
Gideon Levy is a columnist for Israeli newspaper, Haaretz.
He says it's clear what Israel's plan for Gaza is."
