Good. There is no pride in genocide.

Well, there's probably not going to be a Beirut Pride again this year.

This sounds very unconstitutional? It does say "everyone" so the principle of equality under the law should apply. Right???

EDIT, aw fuck:

Non-Swedish citizens and non-Swedish legal persons Art. 3. For those who are not Swedish citizens or Swedish legal persons, special restrictions may be laid down in law in respect of freedom of expression under this Fundamental Law.

Well that sounds horrible. Sweden, do better.

If we're comparing with established prison practice let's also mention how prisoners also get human rights, habeas corpus, due process, equal treatment and stuff like that. Israel has none of that for Palestinians.

Yea but a number drawn with a sharpie would fade away. Have you thought of some more permanent way of inking those numbers in their skins? Not to mention that the forehead is a bit too much, it might make the guards uncomfortable. Have you considered someplace a bit more discreet, like maybe the wrist? /s

I would love to hear what's their proposed tactic to pressure Israel to stop oppressing the Palestinians. Becausez motherfuckers, if violence is not an acceptable taxtic, and (peaceful!!!) boycotts are not an acceptable tactic, the what the fuck is an acceptable tactic that people who disagree with your stupid ass rosy picture of this apartheid state are allowed to use? Painting their toenails?

Great, now let's make it universal.

That's silly. Rent controls, an aggressive rental board, expansion of non-market housing, strong tenant unions, and the abolition of restrictive zoning, these are the things we actually need.

Unless we are also abolishing wage slavery and private property, in which case, sure ban renting.

American machismo is tied to American militarism which is tied to American imperialism which is tied to American capitalism. If you want to reimagine a different masculinity, be prepared to unpack a whole lot more.

Hezbollah issued an evacuation order yesterday evening for Israeli settlers in 25 northern settlements, mirroring the occupation forces’ actions in Lebanon. The move follows widespread Israeli evacuation orders targeting areas including Beirut’s Southern Suburb, Southern Lebanon, the Bekaa, and parts of Tyre, with claims of Hezbollah military presence in civilian homes.

Hezbollah stated that the settlements had become military outposts for Israeli forces attacking Lebanon, making them “legitimate military targets” for its air and missile forces. Settlers were told to “evacuate immediately,” as their settlements had become bases for the enemy military. A video issued by Hezbollah’s Military Media reiterated this warning.

“The Israeli prime minister came here today and said that Israel is surrounded by those who want to destroy it,” Safadi said at a Friday press conference shortly after Netanyahu finished his speech at the UN General Assembly.

“We’re here — members of the Muslim-Arab committee, mandated by 57 Arab and Muslim countries — and I can tell you very unequivocally, all of us are willing to guarantee the security of Israel in the context of Israel ending the occupation and allowing for the emergence of a Palestinian state,” Safadi passionately argued.

Netanyahu “is creating that danger because he simply does not want the two-state solution. If he does not want the two-state solution, can you ask Israeli officials what is their end-game — other than just wars and wars and wars?”

Also, video of the statement.
