Israeli Policies and Settler Violence Are Driving Palestinians from the #JordanValley

In the occupied #WestBank, Israeli restrictions on movement for #Palestinians, denial of access to resources, and settlement expansion have all ramped up over the past 18 months.

From #DropSiteNews
Apr 14, 2025

'"We live in constant anxiety, day and night, due to #settler attacks," Bsharat told Drop Site. His family of 12 relies primarily on their flock of sheep for a living. In recent months, they have been repeatedly threatened by #Israeli settlers, who warn they will be shot if they cross onto the nearby land. "They raid our communities with tractors, provoke residents, and prevent us from accessing grazing areas. The army and settlers have seized the land for settler cattle farms."'

#Germany seeks to #deport #protesters

Submitted by webadmin on 9 April, 2025

"The German state has issued deportation orders for three #EUCitizens and one #American who have attended #ProPalestinian protests.

"Berlin immigration authorities issued the orders on 31 March, demanding that the four individuals leave Germany within one month or else face deportation. Their orders cite a protest in October 2024 in which masked individuals caused 'significant property damage, including #graffiti', as well as resisting arrest and calling a #police officer a '#fascist'.

"Unusually, three of the four orders also invoke the German principle of #Staatsräson, (“#StateReason”). This term originates from a speech #AngelaMerkel gave to the #IsraeliKnesset in 2008, asserting that #Israeli security was fundamental to the purpose of the German state.

"Staatsräson is not an officially defined term or codified anywhere in the German constitution or by German courts. At least two of the protestors are appealing the decision, with their lawyer telling Al-Monitor that it is a 'political concept, not a legal concept, and therefore unlawful'.

"In any case, the #deportation of #activists for #protesting should be opposed.

#Khalil

"The activists’ lawyer has drawn parallels to the case of #MahmoudKhalil in the US. 'I see similarities… It is weaponization of #ImmigrationLaw as a tool to silence #PoliticalDissent'. Khalil’s case may also lead to a debate on interpretations of the US constitution’s #FirstAmendment.

"Back in February, #Berlin police broke up a protest, citing a ban on '#ArabicChanting', the playing of #ArabicMusic, or giving a speech in #Arabic. In October 2024, police raided the homes of five men, four of whom were being investigated over 'authorship of #antisemitic social media posts'.

Clapping

"And after the joint Israeli-Palestinian documentary #NoOtherLand won an Academy Award, German culture minister Claudia Roth insisted that she was only clapping for Israeli director Yuval Abraham, not Palestinian director #BaselAdra. Several politicians, including the mayor of Berlin, called for her resignation. A torrent of public criticism was aimed at #YuvalAbraham for his acceptance speech, to which he responded: 'To stand on German soil as the son of Holocaust survivors and call for a ceasefire — and to then be labelled as antisemitic is not only outrageous, it is also literally putting Jewish lives in danger.'

"Israeli politicians cited German politicians when attacking the filmmakers themselves, and only weeks later, co-director #HamdanBallal was attacked by #IsraeliSettlers in the #WestBank, and removed from an ambulance by #IDF soldiers.

"German Staatsräson is less about assuring Israel’s right to exist, and more about giving a free hand to the #repressive policies of the Israeli right."

Workers' LibertyGermany seeks to deport protestersThe German state has issued deportation orders for three EU citizens and one American who have attended pro-Palestinian protests.

Fifteen #humanitarian workers in #Gaza were allegedly killed by #Israeli forces, with autopsy reports revealing multiple gunshot wounds and indications of execution-style killings; one paramedic was discovered with his hands and feet tied, and the victims were reportedly found in a mass grave shortly after their disappearance during an attack on March 23. buff.ly/aIbrJZ7

Members of the Palestine Red Crescent Society and other emergency services prayed over the bodies of fellow rescuers killed a week earlier.

@AntiracistHippie "#NorthDakota’s strong ties with the #drone industry formed a few years ago, with the state’s goal of transforming the state into ground zero for drone technology. By taking advantage of the state, its resources, and its people, the mission to turn North Dakota into a silicon valley for drones has already produced a vast network of unmanned aircraft system (#UAS) technological hubs. However, in doing so it has also entangled North Dakotans into a deep relationship with #Elbit Systems of America, a subsidiary of the #Israeli company. This relationship is not comprehensively understood by #NorthDakotans nor our lawmakers."
