Como os jornalistas que estão cobrindo o massacre que a IDF está fazendo em Gaza, o representante do Alto Comissariado da ONU para Refugiados Christopher Gunness emocionou-se ao vivo na Al Jazeera. O drama macabro está mesmo insuportável até para os durões.
Like all of us, UNRWA Christopher Gunness Breaks down in tears on live TV after israeli attacks on schools, in Gaza. Afterwards, he would be forced to moderate his words.
As Nações Unidas condenaram o bombardeio do outro abrigo da ONU que foi bombardeado na madrugada de quinta-feira pegando crianças e mães dormindo, mas não ousaram pronunciar as palavras certas: crime de guerra, crime contra a humanidade. Porque é Israel, e Israel é intocável; até quando?
Bombardeiam, matam sem piedade, batem e escondem a mão, e culpam o Hamas. São especialistas em contra-informação, pois sabem que mesmo todo mundo sabendo através dos funionários da ONU presentes que foram eles que bombardearam, apesar de insinuarem o contrário, a dúvida está semeada na cabeça dos sionistas irredutíveis e das pessoas manipuláveis.
United Nations officials described the killing of sleeping children as a disgrace to the world and accused Israel of a serious violation [one more] of international law after a school in Gaza being used to shelter Palestinian families was shelled 5 times during the night on Jabalya refugee camp Wednesday. More than 15 people, mostly children and women on the bombing. Israel chooses nights, while people are sleeping, to conduct relentless bombardment across Gaza. It is a pattern. And afterwards they blame Hamas. Cheating is what they do best.
And in the late afternoon, a crowded market in Shujai'iya was hit causing more than 17 deaths, including a journalist, and injuring about 200 people. Meanwhile, Netanyahu announced: "We have destroyed dozens of terror tunnels and we are determined to finish this mission - with or without a ceasefire." Which means no deal, more death, more sorrow to come indefinitely.

Demonstrações contra Israel e sua ocupação da Palestina são anti-semitas? Judeus respondem abaixo.
Are demonstrations against Israel's occupation anti-semitic? Jews reply below.
EUA fala em cessar-fogo, porém, fornece mais arma e o Congresso aprova mandar mais dinheiro para Israel esmagar os palestinos na Cisjordânia e na Faixa de Gaza.
Os Estados Unidos possui um estoque de armas no território isralense para "emergências". Israel tem o direito de fazer uso do arsenal em caso de "emergência".
Barack Obama dá uma de bonzinho "condenando" o massacre das crianças gazauís, contudo, está deixando Israel lançar mão do equipamento militar estadunidense para continuar seu genocídio com mais eficiência e impunemente.
US double talk: plays negotiator and gives more money and arms to Israel to crush Gaza
The United States has allowed Israel to tap a local US arms stockpile in the past week to resupply it with grenades and mortar rounds, Rear Admiral John Kirby, the Pentagon's press secretary, has said.
The munitions were located inside Israel as part of a programme managed by the US military and called War Reserves Stock Allies-Israel (WRSA-I), which stores munitions locally for US use that Israel can also access in "emergency" situations.
Israel, however, did not cite an emergency when it made its latest request about 10 days ago, a defence official said on Wednesday, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Barack Obama doubles talks, calling for an immediate and sustainable ceasefire in Gaza and giving Israel the means to carry on its salughreing of Gazans. So far, Washington allowed Israel to access the strategic stockpile to resupply itself with 40mm grenades and 120mm mortar rounds "to deplete older stocks that would eventually need to be refreshed".
Shame on the White House and on the US Congress for giving Israel more money!

Open letter to the family of the one thousndth victim of Israel's genocidal slaugher in Gaza
Carta aberta à família da milésima vítima do massacre genocídio israelense em Gaza. by Ilan Pappe
"I do not know yet who your loved one was. She might have been a baby a few months old, or a young boy, a grandfather or one of your children or parents. I heard about your loved one’s death from Chico Menashe, a political commentator on Reshet Bet, Israel’s main radio station.
He explained that the killing of your loved one, as well as turning Gaza neighborhoods to rubble and driving 150,000 people from their homes, is part of a well-calculated Israeli strategy: this carnage will destroy the impulse of Palestinians in Gaza to resist Israeli policies.
I heard this while reading in the 25 July edition of the supposedly respectable Haaretz the words of the not so respectable historian Benny Morris that even this is not enough.
He calls the genocidal policies so far “refisut” — feebleness of mind and spirit. He demands far more massive destruction in the future with the knowledge that this is how you behave if you want to defend your “villa in the jungle,” as former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak described Israel.
Inhuman wilderness
Yes, I am afraid to say the Israeli media and academia are fully behind the massacre apart from few, hardly audible voices in this inhuman wilderness. I am not writing this to tell you that I am ashamed — I long ago dissociated myself from this state ideology and do all I can as an individual to confront and defeat it. Probably it has not been enough; we are all inhibited by moments of cowardice, egotism and maybe a natural impulse to take care of our family and loved ones.
And yet I feel the urge today to make a pledge to you, which none of the Germans my father knew during the time of the Nazi regime was willing to make to him when the thugs committed genocide against his family. This is not much of a pledge at your moment of grief, but it is the best I can offer and saying nothing is not an option. And doing nothing is even less than an option.
This is 2014 — the destruction of Gaza is well documented. This is not 1948 when Palestinians had to struggle hard to tell their story of horror; so many of the crimes Zionist committed then where hidden and never came to light, even until today. So my first and simple pledge is to record, inform and insist on the truth.
My old university, University of Haifa, has recruited its students to disseminate Israel’s lies all over the world using the Internet, but this is 2014 and propaganda of this kind will not hold water.
Pledge to boycott
But surely this is not enough. I pledge to continue the effort to boycott a state that commits such crimes. Only when the Union of European Football Associations throws Israel out, when the academic community refuses to have any institutional ties with Israel, when airlines hesitate to fly there, and when every outfit that may lose money because of an ethical stance in the short-term understands that in the long run it will gain both morally and financially — only then we will begin to honor your loss.
Similar initiatives were sabotaged elsewhere by spineless politicians in Europe and the United States. But my pledge is to be part of the effort to overcome these hurdles. The memory of your loved one will be the driving force, together with the vivid memory of the suffering of the Palestinians in 1948 and ever since.
Slaughterhouse
I do it all egotistically. I really pray and hope that in this worst moment of your life when Palestinians stand in Shujaiya, Deir al-Balah or Gaza City, gazing at the slaughterhouse created by Israeli warplanes, tanks and artillery, you would not lose hope in humanity.
This humanity even includes Israelis, those who do not have the courage to speak but who express their horror in private as my overflowing email and Facebook inboxes attest, as well as the small handful who demonstrate publicly against the incremental genocide in Gaza.
It also includes those not born yet who perhaps will be able to escape a Zionist indoctrination machine that teaches them, from cradle to grave, to dehumanize the Palestinians to such a level that the burning alive of a sixteen-year-old Palestinian boy fails to move them or shatter their belief in their government, army or religion.
Defeated
For their sake, mine and yours, I wish we can also dream of the day after — when Zionism will be defeated as the ideology that governs our lives between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean sea and we all have the normal life we crave for and deserve.
So I pledge today not to be distracted even by friends and Palestinian leaders who still foolishly pin their hopes on the long-gone “two-state solution.” If one has the impulse to be involved in bringing regime change in Palestine, the only reason to do this is for a struggle for equal human and civil rights and full restitution for all those who are and were victimized by Zionism, inside and outside the beloved land of Palestine.
May whoever is your loved one rest in peace knowing that their death was not in vain — not because it will be avenged and revenged. We do not need more bloodshed. I still believe there is a way of bringing evil systems to an end with the power of humanity and morality.
Justice also means bringing the murderers who killed your loved one and so many others to court, and we must pursue bringing Israel’s war criminals to trial in international tribunals.
It is a far longer way and, at times, even I feel the impulse to be part of a force that uses hard power to end the inhumanity. But I pledge myself to work for justice, full justice, restorative justice.
This is what I can pledge — to work to prevent the next stage in the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza."

PS. BRASIL: "Brazil to Israel: We are not dwarves, by Joe Leahy - Financial Times, July 26
Israel and Brazil are locked in a diplomatic spat after Latin America’s biggest country issued a statement condemning Benjamin Netanyahu’s government for using “disproportional” force in Gaza but failed to mention the role of Hamas in the conflict.
An Israeli spokesperson called Brazil a diplomatic dwarf and described it as irrelevant in terms of international diplomacy.
“This is an unfortunate demonstration of why Brazil, an economic and cultural giant, remains a diplomatic dwarf,” said Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor. “The moral relativism behind this move makes Brazil an irrelevant diplomatic partner, one who creates problems rather than contributes to solutions.”
He went on to insult Brazil even more deeply in an interview on Brazil’s Globo news channel by raising the Latin American football power’s crushing 7-1 defeat to Germany in the World Cup. He said in football, a game that ended 1-1 was considered “proportional” while 7-1 was considered “disproportional”. But no such measures existed in international law when it came to conflicts. “This is not football,” Palmor said. Brazil’s response to the insults ranged from the diplomatic to the angry. “Brazil is one of the 11 countries in the world that has diplomatic relations with all members of the United Nations … therefore when we speak in the UN we are listened to,” said a measured foreign minister Luiz Alberto Figueiredo Machado. Meanwhile, Marco Aurélio Garcia, the advisor on international relations to President Dilma Rousseff (pictured above), retorted that Brazil does not seek the kind of “relevance” that a country achieves by using military forces against the defenceless. Ironically, the angry response from Israel may be precisely because Brazil is “diplomatically relevant”. It was one of the larger nations that voted in favour of a resolution in the Human Rights Council of the United Nations that called for an investigation into all human rights violations during “military operations” in the Gaza Strip. The Jerusalem Post acknowledged that the problem with Brazil from Israel’s perspective was that once it voted against Israel, most of Latin America would normally follow suit. Indeed, in addition to Brazil, all Latin American countries present on the council supported the motion, alongside other emerging countries, including Russia, India, China, South Africa, and a host of other mostly African and Middle Eastern nations. Western European countries abstained while the US was the only one to vote against the motion...
... Whatever the answer [to why Brazil took a stand on Gaza], there is one thing Brazil will not quickly [you bet!] forget about this week’s row with Israel – the gratuitous insult about the football."

NADA DE TRÉGUA SEM FIM DE 8 ANOS DE SÍTIO, diz o Hamas
END TO 8 YEARS SIEGE BEFORE TRUCE, says Hamas
Diante da chacina em Gaza, até a CNN cai na real
"We die like trees, standing up"
"Morremos como as árvores, de pé"
Artista gazauí/Gazan artist - Julho, 2014
Mohammed Deif, comandante das Brigadas Qassam, a ala militar do Hamas, declarou ontem que o cessar-fogo só aconteceria com o fim do sítio que Israel vem impondo à Faixa de Gaza desde 2006. Pois esta não é nem mais a condição do Hamas e sim de seus concidadãos, dos gazauís que não conseguem suportar a ideia que toda a destruição, todos os prejuízos materiais, todas a perdas humanas, sejam vãs.
Mahmoud Abbas e os líderes da OLP que vivem na Cisjordânia ilhados em suas cidades cercadas de muros e suas terras invadidas por colônias estrangeiras, parecem acomodados com o status quo que Israel e os EUA lhes impõem, contanto que ELES vivam bem. O resto que se dane. O Fatah de Yasser Arafat - Abu Amar, está a anos luz do Fatah de Abu Mazem -Mahmoud Abbas. Este parece mais preocupado em guardar o comando da Autoridade Nacional Palestina do que em resolver o problema do injusto e ilegal bloqueio da Faixa de Gaza definitivamente.
É por isso que não dá ouvidos ao que os 1 milhão e 800 mil gazauís gritam para o Hamas em prantos: Fim do bloqueio antes de cessar-fogo! senão, daqui a dois anos os israelenses voltam a destruir tudo de novo e voltam a matar nossos pais, nossas mães, nossos irmãos e nossos filhos! Queremos viver como gente, não como bichos nem indigentes!
Como disse o jornalista palestino Mohammed Omer a Amy Goodman no vídeo da Democracy Now que postei ontem.
O Hamas não pode, nem moral nem politicamente, aceitar um cessar-fogo contra a vontade da população inteira, que maldiz os ditadores árabes - Arábia Saudita e Egito na cabeça - que protegem Israel, e só pensa no fim do bloqueio. Se aceitar, vai ser o fim do partido e facções extremistas vão fatalmente tomar o lugar dele. Os gazauís não aguentam mais viver desse jeito.
Não é má-vontade do Hamas. Para os gazauís a escolha já foi feita: morrer sob bombardeios é uma morte mais rápida do que a morte lenta da carência e do medo na qual sobrevivem em seu próprio país, onde seus filhos já nascem prisioneiros.
Os meninos de até 8 anos vivem como todos os gazauís, em sobressalto, pois vira e mexe a IDF bombardeia de noite para mostrar sua onipresença. Estes meninos nunca conheceram a liberdade; nunca dormiram e acordaram sem o o barulho permanente dos drones no ar que mostram a onipotência israelense sobre a vida e a morte dele, e das dezenas de milhares de compatriotas que se espremem entre mar, muros, arames farpados, e a espada de dâmocles dos drones armados sobre suas cabeças.
Este genocídio 2014 é a brutalidade quotidiana de Israel durante todos os anos. Atacam durante a noite, quando as famílas estão dormindo, com um aviso de tempo mínimo, e o resultado é que matam como queriam dando uma de bonzinho só porque avisaram um pouquinho antes de bombardear um prédio cheio de famílias despreparadas para deixar tudo pra trás, descer escada correndo com bebês e meninos, enfim, impossível de evacuar em 3 minutos.
Quem critica o Hamas não tem nem ideia do que é a vida na Faixa de Gaza. Não tem nem ideia do que é viver sem nenhum direito, viver prisioneiro, sem perspectiva, apesar de não ter cometido nenhum crime, nenhuma infraçãozinha às leis humanas e divinas. Só por ter nascido na terra milenar de seus ancestrais; embora de direito de fato e legal, ocupada por uma super-potência militar estrangeira que quer riscar você e todos os seus do mapa, que quer acabar com a sua raça para surrupiar tudo o que você tem - da dignidade ao direito de moradia, de comida, de vida, enfim, de existência.
Não suporto ouvir chamarem os membros do Hamas de terroristas. Terrorista é quem aterroriza aleatoriamente, quem comete crimes gratuitos, quem ataca sem motivo traiçoeiramente.
Terrorista é o Estado que invade, ocupa, oprime outro povo e infringe as leis internacionais impunemente.
O Hamas emergiu na resistência da primeira Intifada e em 2006 era um partido legitimamente constituído. Quando ganhou as eleições e a Faixa de Gaza foi alienada pela Autoridade Palestina e por Mahmoud Abbas, sob ordens anglo-estadunidenses, o Hamas teve de estabelecer um governo com secretariado de saúde, educação, etc., uma polícia, e um exército de defesa - as Brigadas Qassam. Se não tivesse feito isso, o território teria virado uma baderna total, desgovernado.
Os líderes do Hamas não são bárbaros. São estudados, cultos, educados. Muito mais do que os atuais governantes de Israel. Que são uma barbaridade.
E os militares das Brigadas al-Qassam, apesar do uniforme meio assustador - de cara tampada por segurança contra represália do ocupante - são soldados disciplinados. Como os da IDF, só que o serviço militar não é obrigatório. É por isso que suas mortes não são incluídas na conta dos civis. São militares, preparados para matar e morrer, como os soldados da IDF. A diferença é que os militares do Hamas são resistentes que defendem seu país de invasores e lutam pela liberdade.
O Hamas estava politicamente isolado e o governo de união com o Fatah, em que os ministros tecnocratas eram majoritários e controlavam as pastas mais importantes, era uma oportunidade única para negociar uma paz bilateral permanente. Mas Israel preferiu a guerra e o massacre.
Erro crasso, pois se os gazauís beneficiassem de liberdade de comércio e de movimento, votariam em um partido mais liberal, talvez até no Fatah. Mas nas circunstâncias atuais, o Hamas é quem lhes traz esperança de obter pelo menos o mínimo - o fim do bloqueio, o fim do sítio interminável.
E concluindo, o Hamas e o Jihad não estão sozinhos nesta luta por liberdade, autonomia e dignidade. Há outros grupos, uns mais extremistas e outros de esquerda tradicional que estariam lutando na tribuna em vez de pegar em armas, se tivessem, como nós, escolha. Aliás, como o Hamas.
Como os resistentes franceses que combateram os nazistas com armas e armadilhas nas ruas de Paris e na França ocupada.
Como os londonianos que resistiram aos bombardeios da Wehrmacht durante a Segunda Guerra.
Como os brasileiros que resistiram à ditadura militar no Brasil de 1964 a 1984 com os meios que tinham.
Bombardeios israelenses / Israeli rockets hit Gaza
Abaixo, as Brigadas Qassam divulgaram na TV al-Aqsa este vídeo "mudo" que mostra resistentes palestinos que emergem perto de uma guarita israelense nas imediações da Faixa de Gaza e combatem vigias da IDF, que confirmou a perda de cinco soldados. Below, the military wing of Hamas, the Qassam Brigades, released this video which appears to show a group of resistants emerging from a tunnel into Israel. The men then run through what appears to be a rural area in Nahal Oz, before attacking an Israeli watch-tower. Israeli officials confirmed that five soldiers were killed in the raid. The video was shown on the al-Aqsa channel, following the group's statement rejecting a ceasefire. It’s the first time Hamas has released a video of this type, showing an attack on Israel.
Nevertheless, this morning’s Israeli shelling came as a Palestinian delegation was preparing for a trip to Cairo to discuss a temporary humanitarian ceasefire. The Palestine Liberation Organization, headquartered in the West Bank, said it had received support from Hamas for a 24-hour truce, but did not give details about when that could begin. Yesterday senior Palestinian official Nabil Shaath told AFP that Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas “was in touch with Hamas chief Khaled Meshaal yesterday and today. He proposed the 24 hour truce, Meshaal and Hamas agreed.”

Israeli Shiministim - Objetores de consciência/Conscientious objectors
Breaking the Silence
Petition of Israeli shiministim -Conscientious Objector
Abaixo assinado de objetores de consciência isralenses .
"Whenever the Israeli army drafts the reserves — which are made up of ex-soldiers — there are dissenters, resisters, and AWOLers among the troops called to war. Now that Israel has sent troops to Gaza again and reserves are being summoned to service, dozens are refusing to take part.
We are more than 50 Israelis who were once soldiers and now declare our refusal to be part of the reserves. We oppose the Israeli Army and the conscription law. Partly, that’s because we revile the current military operation. But most of the signers below are women and would not have fought in combat. For us, the army is flawed for reasons far broader than “Operation Protective Edge,” or even the occupation. We rue the militarization of Israel and the army’s discriminatory policies. One example is the way women are often relegated to low-ranking secretarial positions. Another is the screening system that discriminates against Mizrachi (Jews whose families originate in Arab countries) by keeping them from being fairly represented inside the army’s most prestigious units. In Israeli society, one’s unit and position determines much of one’s professional path in the civilian afterlife.
To us, the current military operation and the way militarization affects Israeli society are inseparable. In Israel, war is not merely politics by other means — it replaces politics. Israel is no longer able to think about a solution to a political conflict except in terms of physical might; no wonder it is prone to never-ending cycles of mortal violence. And when the cannons fire, no criticism may be heard.
This petition, long in the making, has a special urgency because of the brutal military operation now taking place in our name. And although combat soldiers are generally the ones prosecuting today’s war, their work would not be possible without the many administrative roles in which most of us served. So if there is a reason to oppose combat operations in Gaza, there is also a reason to oppose the Israeli military apparatus as a whole. That is the message of this petition:
We were soldiers in a wide variety of units and positions in the Israeli military—a fact we now regret, because, in our service, we found that troops who operate in the occupied territories aren’t the only ones enforcing the mechanisms of control over Palestinian lives. In truth, the entire military is implicated. For that reason, we now refuse to participate in our reserve duties, and we support all those who resist being called to service.
The Israeli Army, a fundamental part of Israelis’ lives, is also the power that rules over the Palestinians living in the territories occupied in 1967. As long as it exists in its current structure, its language and mindset control us: We divide the world into good and evil according to the military’s categories; the military serves as the leading authority on who is valued more and who less in society — who is more responsible for the occupation, who is allowed to vocalize their resistance to it and who isn’t, and how they are allowed to do it. The military plays a central role in every action plan and proposal discussed in the national conversation, which explains the absence of any real argument about non-military solutions to the conflicts Israel has been locked in with its neighbors.
The Palestinian residents of the West Bank and Gaza Strip are deprived of civil rights and human rights. They live under a different legal system from their Jewish neighbors. This is not exclusively the fault of soldiers who operate in these territories. Those troops are, therefore, not the only ones obligated to refuse. Many of us served in logistical and bureaucratic support roles; there, we found that the entire military helps implement the oppression of the Palestinians.
Many soldiers who serve in non-combat roles decline to resist because they believe their actions, often routine and banal, are remote from the violent results elsewhere. And actions that aren’t banal — for example, decisions about the life or death of Palestinians made in offices many kilometers away from the West Bank — are classified, and so it’s difficult to have a public debate about them. Unfortunately, we did not always refuse to perform the tasks we were charged with, and in that way we, too, contributed to the violent actions of the military.
During our time in the army, we witnessed (or participated in) the military’s discriminatory behavior: the structural discrimination against women, which begins with the initial screening and assignment of roles; the sexual harassment that was a daily reality for some of us; the immigration absorption centers that depend on uniformed military assistance. Some of us also saw firsthand how the bureaucracy deliberately funnels technical students into technical positions, without giving them the opportunity to serve in other roles. We were placed into training courses among people who looked and sounded like us, rather than the mixing and socializing that the army claims to do.
The military tries to present itself as an institution that enables social mobility — a stepping-stone into Israeli society. In reality, it perpetuates segregation. We believe it is not accidental that those who come from middle- and high- income families land in elite intelligence units, and from there often go to work for high-paying technology companies. We think it is not accidental that when soldiers from a firearm maintenance or quartermaster unit desert or leave the military, often driven by the need to financially support their families, they are called “draft-dodgers.” The military enshrines an image of the “good Israeli,” who in reality derives his power by subjugating others. The central place of the military in Israeli society, and this ideal image it creates, work together to erase the cultures and struggles of the Mizrachi, Ethiopians, Palestinians, Russians, Druze, the Ultra-Orthodox, Bedouins, and women.
We all participated, on one level or another, in this ideology and took part in the game of “the good Israeli” that serves the military loyally. Mostly our service did advance our positions in universities and the labor market. We made connections and benefited from the warm embrace of the Israeli consensus. But for the above reasons, these benefits were not worth the costs.
By law, some of us are still registered as part of the reserved forces (others have managed to win exemptions or have been granted them upon their release), and the military keeps our names and personal information, as well as the legal option to order us to “service.” But we will not participate — in any way.
There are many reasons people refuse to serve in the Israeli Army. Even we have differences in background and motivation about why we’ve written this letter. Nevertheless, against attacks on those who resist conscription, we support the resisters: the high school students who wrote a refusal declaration letter, the Ultra orthodox protesting the new conscription law, the Druze refusers, and all those whose conscience, personal situation, or economic well-being do not allow them to serve. Under the guise of a conversation about equality, these people are forced to pay the price. No more."
