For #PalestinianPrisonersDay lets take a deeper look into the numbers. The @Addameer website has a great summary of the statistics for us to use to dig in: addameer.org/statistics Image
What does "Administrative Detainees" mean? Think Guantanamo Bay. From @Addameer it is"a procedure that allows Israeli occupation forces to hold prisoners indefinitely on secret information without charging them or allowing them to stand trial." addameer.org/the_prisoners/…
One victim of Administrative Detention is Dr. Mohammad Ghazal, Lecturer of Civil Engineering at An-Najah University. Dr. Ghazal was sentenced by an Israeli Military court based on secret information: addameer.org/prisoner/moham…

Some updates from Monday's Stop Police Crimes meeting. Please read to stay updated on the day to day work we're doing and see how you can get involved.
Emergency: Gerald Reed, who survived being tortured by Jon Burge, is sick with covid-19 symptoms. He is currently in Stateville NRC and we need to get him out.
We cannot trust politicians, much less IDOC, to do the right thing, which is why we need to put mass pressure on them. ImageImage
Call your state representatives. We need to flood these politicians phone lines and inboxes until they act to free Gerald Reed and #FreeThemAll.
You can find out who your state representative is here: house.gov/representative…

Gerald Reed is still in Stateville after he was illegally reconvicted by judge Hennelly. We are pressuring JB Pritzker to demand his immediate release along with a mass release from all Illinois prisons and jails. Call him now and use this script. Image
Tamon Russell is at Hill Correctional Center. To inquire about his health, call the warden, Christine Brannon: (309)343-4212. Use extension 150 to speak to a counselor.

Hoy 17 de abril es el Día de las y los Presos Palestinos #PalestinianPrisonersDay.
Aprovechamos en este hilo para señalar algunos datos y complicidades de compañías que se benefician del régimen de apartheid israelí, como la aseguradora francesa @AXASegurosEs.
⤵️ Abrimos hilo ⤵️
Gracias a la presión durante años de la Coalición Stop AXA y @Campagnebds, ✌🏾 la multinacional francesa anunció la semana pasada retirar parte de sus inversiones en @ElbitSystemsLtd, empresa de armas israelí.
Es un paso, pero no es suficiente...
bdsmovement.net/news/axa-im-di…
No es suficiente porque @AXASegurosEs sigue manteniendo inversiones en 🏦 bancos israelíes (directamente implicados en la colonización y apartheid israelíes), y en Elbit, a través de filiales.
Por eso seguimos exigiendo a AXA su total desinversión.

Am I allowed to be outraged by this, or does that make me "antisemitic" ?

- Video of a Palestinian child being assaulted by Israeli police this morning.

Isreali goons dressed in uniforms violating basic human rights of Palestinians 24/7.

Constitution of Israel is based on Talmud where Goyims have no rights.

If a Zionist kill anyone, he's not to be punished, he's owns gentiles.
