La rivoluzione egiziana fu diffusa, ma dimenticata | il manifesto Egitto (Internazionale) La Rivoluzione egiziana รจ associata, nella memoria collettiva, a unโ€™immagine quasi esclusiva: Piazza Tahrir nei giorni di gennaio 2011. Il luogo si รจ trasformato in un simbolo ...

La rivoluzione egiziana รจ stata un processo diffuso, sociale, collettivo โ€” non uno spettacolo confinato in un solo luogo.

Quando la memoria si restringe, si indebolisce anche la possibilitร  di resistenza.
Ricordare significa restituire spazio a tutte le voci.

Where is the Western media while the genocide continues?
Theyโ€™re prolonging the negotiations just to give Israel more time to kill civilians.

Gaza aid contractor tells BBC he saw colleagues fire on hungry Palestinians The Israel- and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has strongly denied the allegation.

GHF need to be investigated for complicity in war crimes. "He said contractors were given no clear rules of engagement or standard operating procedures, and were told by one team leader: "if you feel threatened, shoot โ€“ shoot to kill and ask questions later". www.bbc.com/news/article...

Povero Netanyahu, ha dovuto rimandare il matrimonio del figlio โ€” troppo impegnato a far morire di fame i palestinesi e bombardare ospedali. Deve essere difficile organizzare una festa durante un genocidio.

Solidarity with the oppressed is forbidden.
Photos with war criminals are the norm.

The hypocrisy is not just shameful โ€” it is systemic.

FIFA and football federations have banned any gesture of solidarity with Palestine. Players are fined, suspended, silenced โ€” just for denouncing a genocide.

But posing with the fascist Trump, who openly talks about bombing Tehran and supports the ongoing genocide in Gaza? No problem.

Netanyahu oggi ci ricorda che bombardare ospedali รจ un crimine di guerra secondo il diritto internazionale.

Peccato che dopo aver raso al suolo tutti ospedali a Gaza, ci si ricordi del diritto solo quando le vittime non sono palestinesi.

Advocating for a ceasefire to stop the killing of innocent children is not supporting Hamas. Criticizing the IDF for committing mass atrocities is not supporting Hamas. Standing up for Palestinian rights is not supporting Hamas.

All of that is constitutionally-protected speech.

Israeli Knesset member Almog Cohen incited violence on live TV, calling Ramadan โ€œthe best time to kill themโ€ because Muslims are โ€œweak and tiredโ€ from fasting. This dehumanizing rhetoric is a blatant violation of human rights and fuels atrocities. #Gaza #stopgenocide

Denying food, water, and medicine to an entire population is not just crueltyโ€”itโ€™s a war crime. Israelโ€™s total siege on Gaza violates fundamental human rights and international law. #HumanRights #Gaza

He is now freeโ€ฆ Syriaโ€™s longest-serving detainee, โ€œRagheed Al-Tatri,โ€ has been released after 43 years of imprisonment. He was moved through several prisons, ending up in Tartous Central Prison, and was freed with the last group of detainees following the fall of the tyrant Bashar al-Assadโ€™s regime.
