    Zionism's/Israel's internal inequality, racism, creation of refugees, and unrestrained violence have created moral crises for generations of Jewish scholars.

    Until I encountered these recent works, I was unaware of important links in the chain…

    Everyone should at least consider the idea that the law is constantly remade to prevent social change.

    That many effective strategies will be criminalized precisely because they are effective.

    That, therefore, one should never confuse legality with morality.

    "From the River to the Sea" begins with an acknowledgement that there are Palestinians in Gaza, in the West Bank, and in Israel / "the 1948 territories." People who share a common national struggle.

    People who must neither live as permanent second-class citizens, nor as permanently stateless subjects.

    As a descendant of Jews and the African diaspora, I realize that historic trauma casts a real shadow.

    But fearing expulsion from A SLOGAN that ends "Palestine will be free," while Gazans are under orders to evacuate 1/2 of the 1.3% of Israel/Palestine they are crowded within??

    Here's Saree Makdisi in 2007: "There remains but one possibility for peace with justice: truth, reconciliation–and a single democratic and secular state, a state in which there will be no “natives” and “settlers” and all will be equal; a state for all its citizens irrespective of their religious affiliation." https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/secular-democratic-state/

      For a Secular Democratic State
      from https://www.thenation.com/authors
      Zionism has run its course, and in doing so has killed any possibility of a two-state solution.

    Prominent Palestinian voices speaking to the entire land "from the river to the sea" have presented a clear vision.

    Here's Edward Said in 1999:

    "I see no other way than to begin now to speak about sharing the land that has thrust us together, sharing it in a truly democratic way, with equal rights for each citizen. There can be no reconciliation unless both peoples, two communities of suffering, resolve that their existence is a secular fact, and that it has to be dealt with as such."

    Freedom for one people does not imply or require expulsion of others.

    The supposition that it does is an important mirror of how we settler state residents view the world, though.

    Whatever the relative merits and potential for one-state vs two-state visions for Israel/Palestine, the North Star of one-state solutions for Palestinians, since the early days of the PLO, has been a "secular democratic state" of Jews and Arabs, not expulsion.

    Some time today, the Palestinian death toll in Gaza (at 5,087 yesterday) will exceed the number of Palestinians killed in the First and Second Intifadas combined (high estimates 3,354 and 1,962 respectively. This month has been worse than 10 years.

    @mike This will be true when we get more general-purpose providers, like news organizations, weather services, and journalists on here.

    But a quick search of #HurricaneHilary on Mastodon<dot>online reveals a lot of discussion about its impending arrival and very little actual news.

    Filtering out trolls and false rumors is important, yes.

    The ability to sort by # of follower, likes, and boosts instead of by chronology is actually vital for events where ppl interested >> people w/ info.

      It took a team and some help from the Mastodon community.
