la situazione in palestina, la posizione di slowforward: i prossimi post

la situazione in Palestina (che esiste, sappiano i lettori sionisti) è di genocidio, e quasi (quasi?) non ha precedenti – anche solo sul piano quantitativo, relativo alle armi impiegate e alle vittime innocenti in una data unità di tempo – per dimensioni e crudeltà.

di conseguenza slowforward, questo sito, che normalmente si occupa di ricerca letteraria, arte contemporanea, glitch, asemic writing, avanguardie e sperimentazione, darà anche notizie relative a quanto sta accadendo in quella parte del medio oriente, visto che una fetta maggioritaria dell’informazione mainstream è – al contrario – centrata su (e obbediente a) quelle che Norman Finkelstein chiama “lacrime di coccodrillo” di quella parte (si spera via via decrescente) dell’elettorato israeliano che ha voluto a capo del suo Stato una compagine di personaggi senza scrupoli.

si offrono qui di séguito alcuni link recenti ae meno recenti episodi e notizie che non hanno bisogno di particolari commenti, e che chiariscono limpidamente i termini delle vessazioni passate e dell’orrore in atto. materiali assai più numerosi sul momento presente possono essere rintracciati quotidianamente sulla bacheca del mio profilo fb.

today, nov 29th, international day of solidarity with the palestinian people

TODAY November 29th, is the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, and the #BDS movement is calling for an all day social media storm. Our physical and digital actions can be used together to strengthen our demands:

  • Permanent ceasefire and lifting the siege to stop Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
  • Lawful sanctions on Israel, including a #MilitaryEmbargo.
  • Pressure on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue arrest warrants for Israeli leaders

Click here for prepared messages and images to use for the social media storm.

Over the last 7 weeks, millions of you have taken to the streets for the largest protests the world has seen in the last 20 years! We are grateful to each one of you who, through your voices and creative actions, have built up unprecedented grassroots power to end Israel’s genocidal war against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza. Yet, Western governments are continuing to arm, fund and provide political cover for Israel’s genocide.

We must act urgently to end all state, corporate and institutional complicity with Israel’s genocidal apartheid regime. Palestinian lives and livelihoods literally depend on it. To this end, and as time has shown, BDS is the most effective form of solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle.

Today, we call for escalating worldwide peaceful mobilizations and expressions of meaningful solidarity to stop the genocide including:

  1. Whenever feasible, organizing peaceful disruptions, sit-ins, occupations, etc.
  2. Disrupting the transport of weapons, or weapon parts, to Israel, including in transit states.
  3. Pressuring parliaments and governments to cancel existing military-security contracts and agreements with Israel.
  4. Intensifying #BDS campaigns and campaigns to cut all ties to apartheid Israel and its complicit academic and cultural institutions as well as sports teams.
  5. Mobilizing your community, trade union, association, church, social network, student government/union, city council, cultural center, etc. to declare itself an Apartheid Free Zone (AFZ).
  6. Pressuring your elected officials to demand the International Criminal Court (ICC) issue arrest warrants for Israeli leaders. The ICC prosecutor should be replaced if he continues to drag his feet and ignore his legal obligations to stop the genocide

If not now, when?
Unite now to stop #GazaGenocide and dismantle Israeli apartheid
