People that haven’t watched this, you should. It’s long, but very, very informative if you want learn about the history behind this Israel-Palestine (minus the propaganda). Bassem Youssef really lays it all out.
Israel admits to war crimes.
Not only admits, but brags and taunts International Humanitarian Groups about it. Claims that since USA saturation bombed Dresden in Nazi Germany during WW2 as a “necessary evil” for the greater good, and since Uncle Sam killed civilians back then, it is copacetic for Israel to kill Palestine citizens now as “collateral damage.” As if to claim “you did something horrible 80 years ago [that is now outlawed by International agreement] so we can do that same horrible thing with impunity.”
What the Zionist spin doctors of Israel are conveniently omitting is that since then, after WW2, the Geneva Accords were enacted, specifically prohibiting such acts of violence against civilians as War Crimes against Humanity.
What Uncle Sam did in WW2 would be considered a War Crime today.
What Israel is doing in Palestine would be considered War Crimes.
After WW2, Israel was instrumental in assisting the International Criminal Court, in tracking down and bringing to justice escaped Nazi War Criminals. Except for the thousands of ex Nazis that Uncle Sam granted immunity to while giving them visas to come work in the USA. You know, Werner Von Braun and thousands of lesser known Nazis all for the greater good. And Israel is not currently a signatory of the ICC, the International Criminal Court, therefore does not recognize the Geneva Accords, except in hypocritical instances when Israel’s Zionist spin doctors say so.
Speaking of Uncle Sam and the land of the free, how’s this for hypocrisy:

“Animation is just for kids!”
…Ok…Ok…Let’s take a look at some of that animation that’s “Just for kids,” shall we?
Adventure Time is a series that touches a lot on philosophical questions and theories, with one episode having one character ask “If just being born is the greatest act of creation then what are you supposed to do after that?”
Avatar: The Last Airbender dives deep into having characters question what is right and wrong when dealing with a horrible evil. Like, is it better to harm anybody, even the most innocent old man, just because their society is run by fascists? Should we torture those who tortured us? And should we really kill someone just because they are irredeemable? All hard questions, each with uneasy answers.
The Owl House has a powerful antagonist whose goal is to commit genocide on an entire race of innocent people due to being raced to believe that said people are evil, thus stating that the most dangerous people are the ones who are prejudiced and ignorant.
Centaurworld has a scene where a man tries to drown an elk. No, I’m not kidding. That happened. It was on screen and everything.
Encanto teaches a lesson on generational trauma, the pressures of living up to expectations, and stating that the best gift is being alive and having those around you.
And do I even have to say ANYTHING about Pixar?! The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Up, Inside Out, Soul, and even Toy Story all have themes and morals that can speak to adults while also being simple enough for kids to understand.
But that’s just animation for kids. Let’s talk about animation for ADULTS, shall we?
South Park takes a comedic view of our society, poking fun in the many ways it’s broken.
The Breadwinner is a tense movie of a young, Afghan girl disguising herself as a boy so she can go out and make money so her family can survive.
Invincible has some of the most brutal scenes I’ve seen from a superhero series, including this moment with a train (you’ll know it when you see it) that was so horrific that, when it cut to black for a second, I saw the look of pure shock and terror of my face reflected onto my laptop.
And Bojack Horseman is the best adult-animated series I’ve ever seen because it tackles issues made for adults. Things like opium addiction, depression, the struggles of being asexual in a sex-driven world, and telling one truth that most adults need to hear. The truth that, in this life, you can’t live happily ever after. You’re alive, always have another problem to deal with, and then you’re dead. There’s no point, in this plane of existence, when you’re happy forever and ever. Because life’s a show, and when everybody’s happy, then there can’t be a show anymore.
Animation. Is not. For kids.
Animation is a medium that is often geared towards kids. And the reason why people keep saying it’s for kids is because they focus on the kids stuff and refuse to look at how mature some animated movies and shows can be.

Boycott. Please remember to boycott. Focus on these three. You can make a difference.
Edit: See this link for more on what to boycott from BDS. And here as well.
Connections got cut off from Palestine.
Power got cut of from Palestine.
Medical and Food imports got cut off from Palestine.
And there is still some of y'all who believe Israel is in the right?
They are denying people humane care, they are mass bombing thousands. Over 7000 people have died, around 3000 of them are children. CHILDREN.
THEY ARE BOMBING INNOCENT CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY ARE SCARED.
THAT IS NOT WHAT GOOD PEOPLE WOULD DO.
YOUR GOD WOULD NOT BE PROUD.
Does anyone else just get, like, really pleased when you see a gomens post that has exactly 666 notes? And then you want to share it but don’t want to mess it up?
