My Estimation Is That The Reason The Calls For Global Strike Tomorrow (dec 11th) Seem Uncoordinated Is

my estimation is that the reason the calls for global strike tomorrow (dec 11th) seem uncoordinated is because they're coming from inside palestine and were shared by palestinians inside palestine instead of being organized independently by each country. they seem most focused within the west bank and jordan.

My Estimation Is That The Reason The Calls For Global Strike Tomorrow (dec 11th) Seem Uncoordinated Is

however, we've seen a lot of people worldwide take up this call and several organizers within the US and other countries do it in their own way. one of the primary asks is to just disrupt the global market. if you can't call in sick and must go to work, then don't use your credit card tomorrow. some have said don't log into facebook and instagram—sure. that too. if you can participate in protests after work instead, do that. if you are not an essential worker, if you can shut down a store, and bookstore, if you have a small business, make sure to let people know you are not working because you are striking for palestine. if you're a student and you can, don't go to class. if you're a teacher and you can, call in sick. if you have exams (as many do) you can just refrain from buying anything, join a protest after, or share the boycott news. one student not showing up may not do much—three students not showing up reminds people that there's a strike. talking about it, even if you won't participate in it, helps. talking about it, even just to say "oh there's supposed to be a strike today" helps.

it is a flexible form of disruption. the priority is disrupting businesses and the flow of commerce, so more than not going to work, not using your credit card is far more important.

consider this a trial run in disruption on behalf of those inside palestine. yes bigger and more organized global strikes that can coordinate with local groups are needed. but small chain reactions like this also create disruption, increase pressure, and remind people that the genocide is on-going. they also build up to bigger and more sustained strikes.

Famished Gazans have been eating animal feed to survive. So Israel decided to BAN animal feed as well!

The depravity is unfathomable... pic.twitter.com/SzLvEGgu39

The rest of the items banned or restricted from entering Gaza by Israel is even more insane. It includes chocolate pastries, children's toys, stone fruits (e.g. dates, mangos, peaches, cherries, apricots...) & water purification tools.

Engineered famine!https://t.co/kbSEB420vz pic.twitter.com/ixnHgAaoLQ

Maternity kits, medical threads and scissors, water testing kits, anesthetics, mobile desalination units, etc do you see the pattern? Israel is not only starving the people of Gaza but it also wants to ensure the spread of disease through contaminated water and surgical tools, as well as ensuring injured Palestinians suffer through horrendous pain.

It's beyond sickening.

What's new(ish) in the settler-colonial state of the US is that a series of bills have been passed in the House (the Baby Senate as I like to say) and are on their way to the Senate that make it harder to voice support for Palestinians while also making sure your direct taxes aid the genocide in Gaza.

These bills affirm the US's stance on the settler-colonial Zionist Entity and the implicit ties that the government has with Israel and really — just goes to show you how Israel is just one big base for American Imperialism.

Anyways, there's still time to call your senate and tell them that you don't want these bills that only further spiral the US into fascism so even if you think it might not do much — it's important that we document our dissent in official sources. And while you're at it — call your congressperson and tell them that if they voted for this you're not voting for them next election. If they voted against the bills, still call your congresspeople and tell them you support their decision to vote against these bills.

Here are the bills:

📍Resolution: HR 6126

Resolution Name: Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act Description: Gives $14.3 Billion To Israel From The IRS (Taxes You Pay). Like straight up. Just takes it from an IRS project, which used our tax dollars to begin with, to give to Israel "defense." Link to check summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr6126

📍Resolution: HR 798

Resolution Name: "Condemning the support of Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist organizations at institutions of higher education, which may lead to the creation of a hostile environment for Jewish students, faculty, and staff." Description: Will Penalize Students On American College Campuses For Supporting Palestine. This includes "Free Palestine" Protests as according to Rep Owens who introduced the bill (Click). Link to check who voted: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/118-2023/h578

📍Resolution: HR 3266

Resolution Name: "Tolerance in Palestinian Education Act" Description: They will be examining Palestinian education materials to see if it promotes "hate" or "violence" (aka are they teaching their children to become murderers??). Will inevitably require Revision Of Text Books In Palestinian Schools To Portray The Occupation In A Positive Light. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr3266

📍Resolution: HR 340

Resolution Name: "The Hamas International Financing Prevent Action" Description: Claims to stop financial support for "terrorist" organizations but considering that Gaza's government is run by Hamas, then this would mean Gaza will receive absolutely no aid and donating to people in Gaza could get you in legal trouble. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr340

There's a button for most of these bills that allows you to contact your representative directly. Please do take the time to contact them — while many of this isn't especially new to Palestinians, the difference is now that we have a larger power in numbers than we did in the past. Please make sure to advocate for you Palestinian comrades in the US whenever possible! Help us Free Palestine one step at a time!

A digital painting of my beetle character. They are floating in front of a dark purple background that gets lighter towards their hand. At the lightest point, they are holding a needle with red thread that is wrapped around their mask legs, starting at their left antenna. Their mask is an orange-yellow with brown wood-like vertical markings. There are three light green eyes: two slitted ones and one smaller one on the forehead. They have some short white hair poking out from their nape, flared out. They are wearing a yellow scarf that wraps around the front, the end is folded in such a way to mimic the ends of insect feet. They have a blue vest that ends in a tailcoat, and a white shirt with blue-trimmed sleeves underneath. Their dark blue pants have a white trim that sprouts into a floral pattern around the bottom hem. Their shoes are a blue-green with a black floral trim.

Here is the fabled beetlesona (well... technically just an oc)(or is it?), this is just concept art because I'm still messing around with the vest and colours. Hope you enjoy them

more background colours + bonus doodle under the cut

A title card for them

A doodle of the mentioned character except is it a closeup of their mask, cropping just under their third eye. Their scarf frames the right side of the canvas with the text "Weaver (?)" displayed. There is a linked star pattern featured on the scarf.

The Israeli occupation has killed more than 154 Palestinians since the ceasefire began, violating all agreements and commitments. The bodies of the martyrs pile up, homes are destroyed over their inhabitants, and massacres continue relentlessly. Yet, the media remains silent, as if our lives are unworthy of being told, as if our blood is nothing more than numbers lost in the flood of news

But what if a single Israeli were killed? Headlines would ignite, condemnations would pour in, and the world would mourn the loss. Meanwhile, we are slaughtered daily, entire families are erased, our homes are mercilessly bombed, and the skies rain fire upon our children and mothers

We ask for nothing but the right to live, yet it is stolen from us with brutal force. Under this suffocating siege, soaring prices, and the blockade of crossings, we are in desperate need of your support

Stand with us in this time of hardship. Every contribution can save a life, and every voice can help the world hear our suffering. Do not leave us alone in the face of this injustice

Donate here, your donation, whatever it is, makes a difference

• The Israeli warplanes carried out a series of heavy air strikes on Gaza city. [ source ]

This list is not exhaustive. There are bodies under the rubble, missing from the death count, there are stories of atrocities gone unreported. Let that sink in, that this is not even the full extent of what has occurred since the truce agreement expired. The children of Gaza have gone back to living in fear, constantly hearing the sounds of warplanes over their heads. The people of Gaza have gone back to expecting to die.

It is far from time to lose steam. This is not over just because the bombing stopped for a week. The genocide continues and has been ramped up. Do not stop talking about Palestine. Do not stop bearing witness to what is happening. Do not stop demanding that it ends.
