STOP dehumanizing Palestinians!

It has been more than 18 months since the Israeli government began their most recent assault on Gaza and the West Bank.

The retaliation for the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack in Israel, has escalated to what the international community has called genocide, therefore, GRIID will be providing weekly links to information and analysis that we think can better inform us of what is happening, along with the role that the US government is playing.

We will also provide information on local events and actions that people can get involved in.

All of this information is to provide people with the capacity of what Noam Chomsky refers to as, intellectual self-defense.

The Civil Defense in Gaza disclosed that 54 Palestinians were killed in Israeli strikes since Saturday’s dawn. 2o April 2025

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced in its daily report on April 19 that Israeli occupation forces have killed 51,157 Palestinians and injured 116,724 others since October 7, 2023. In detail, 1,783 have been martyred, and 4,683 others have been injured since March 18, after “Israel” broke the ceasefire agreement and resumed its war on Gaza. https://t.me/almayadeenenglish/10804

Spain is participating in military exercises with Israel + Esposé on Israeli /EU Collusion

The grave significance of Spain promoting the normalization of an occupying, colonizing, and aggressive state. And the immoral EU collusion in genocide for perks, profit and power

from El Salto by Tortuga original en español abajo 13 April 25 via thefreeonline at https://wp.me/pIJl9-GCx Telegram t.me/thefreeonline/2887

The government continues to fill the Spanish people with disgrace by not showing the slightest sign of distancing itself from the genocide.

While still enforcing thousands of sanctions supporting the US proxy war against Russia the Western Elite continue business as usual with the genocidal Israeli war state’s atrocious blitz and invasion of its neighbours

Spain, though nominally opposing the Gaza Genocide, is participating alongside Israel in the Iniochos 2025 military exercises, led by the Greek army and taking place between March and April 2025..

The statement from the Ministry of Air and Space, headed by Minister Margarita Robles, dilutes and minimizes Israel’s participation, without considering the grave significance of Spain promoting the normalization of an occupying, colonizing, and aggressive state.

At least 500 children killed since Israel broke Gaza truce: Official More than 1,500 people killed since Israel resumed new offensive on March 18, with UNRWA chief describing Gaza as a “post-apocalyptic” killing zone.

The Israeli army is bombing and massacring the population of Gaza with impunity; it is terrorizing and killing settlers in the West Bank. It has invaded Lebanon and Syria and bombing Yemen.

The International Criminal Court has requested the prosecution of, among others, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The Justice Department sees evidence of Israel committing genocide against the Palestinian people.

Spain is participating with six F18s, and Israel with a Gulfstream G550 spy plane. Other non-NATO countries, such as India, the UAE, Qatar, and Montenegro, are also participating in the maneuvers.

Normalizing military or security relations with a state that is ignoring all United Nations resolutions and violating international law, with evidence of committing genocide, is an affront and an absurdity on the part of states that claim to defend international law, support the International Courts of Justice, and uphold United Nations resolutions.

In 2023, the Qatargate scandal led the European Parliament to push for new transparency measures that affected representatives of several countries, not including Israel, despite the intense activity of its lobbyists in Brussels.

IRISH STATE RAMPS UP REPRESSION

In Ireland as in all Europe the Bloody Genocide is backed by the ruling classes- sold out to the Zionist Billionaires – No State will sanction Israel or defy the USA- Constitutions, NATO and Human Rights are seen as just Bullshit.

In the space of four days, Dublin has seen 23 activists in peaceful protests arrested and assaulted by Gardaí Police as the activists protested the slide of the Irish Gombeen1 ruling class towards NATO and their complicity in the Genocide in Palestine.

Mothers’ Day protest against genocide – 14 arrests

The Mothers Against Genocide group organised a vigil for Sunday night of Mothers’ Day outside Leinster House, seat of the Irish parliament and Government. The intention was to hold the event that evening but for some to remain there overnight, leaving at 7.30am.

Plasticised printed photos of murdered Palestinian children were laid out on the ground with children’s shoes, toys etc spread around symbolically against the main gates with battery-powered ‘candles’ lit among them. Nearby a refreshment stall was set up.

By the advertised starting time of 7pm many had arrived and more kept coming, a very large crowd by nearly 8pm when there were some speeches, a few songs and a poem performed by different people, then a projection was being arranged after 9pm at which point I left.

The event was dignified, without even chanting. Policing was very sparse and low-key.

Despite the organisers’ commitment to leave at 7.30am and apparent agreement from the Gardaí present not to interfere with that arrangement, at around 6.00am more Gardaí2 arrived and demanded the clearing of the gates by removal of the icons to the murdered children.

IRISH GOMBEEN RULING CLASS STEPS UP REPRESSION– Twenty-three activists arrested at three different Dublin events between Monday and Friday. Three women reported being strip-searched. Six activists were pepper-sprayed into the eyes. Oppression leads to resistance; the system responds with repression.

In protest, some of the participants lined themselves up in front of the gates. The Gardaí approached the women, trampling over the photos and symbolic children’s items and began to remove the women, some of them quite violently, resulting in their arrests and those of three men also.

The 14 arrested were taken to different Garda stations where some women were strip-searched, an invasive psychological weapon used extensively by the British Occupation against Irish Republican women during the 30 Years War and still used by them against male Irish Republican prisoners.

DUBLIN TRAFFIC CLOGGED AS PALESTINE SOLIDARITY PROTESTERS MARCH AROUND CITY CENTRE

Traffic in Dublin’s city center came to a halt as Palestine solidarity demonstrators, frustrated by the collusion of the Irish Government with the Zionist genocidal massacres to block the main O’Connell Bridge.

By Diarmuid Breatnach On By rebelbreeze via thefreeonline at https://wp.me/pIJl9-GrW

The early evening protest for Wednesday at Leinster House was called by Collective Action for Palestine. It is not certain whether this is an actual organisation or a flag of convenience for a collection of solidarity groups and certainly many of those present were identifiable from different groups.

This included, from their banners, Mothers Against Genocide and Irish Jews Against Genocide but among the hundreds present, activists of other organisations such as Action for Palestine Ireland, Saoirse don Phalaistín, Anti-Imperialist Action Ireland and Social Rights Ireland were in evidence.

The People Before Profit party, which would usually mobilise strongly for marches called by the IPSC, did not have a noticeable present, which may reflect a lack of contact with the organisers of yesterday’s event or a lesser ability to mobilise quickly.

Irish Republican organisations were also not noticeably present, with the exception of the AIA mentioned earlier.

The protesters’ rage and frustration was lit by images of dead and injured Palestinian children in the return to genocidal bombing of Gaza by the ‘Israeli’ armed forces, once again violating their ceasefire agreement, along with besieging and ethnic cleansing of cities of the West Bank.

The previous night Zionist state bombing had killed 414 Palestinians, including 174 children, and hospitalised over 550 more.

The marchers called for action from the Government, such as imposing sanctions on Israel in general and enacting the rather mild Occupied Territories Bill, approved by both Houses of the Oireachtas (Irish parliament) but seven years since, still sitting in a drawer; awaiting enactment.

Those calls have been repeated week after week, month after month in the final months of 2003 and throughout last year but only words of concern from Government ministers resulted, followed by friendship visits to the very supplier of the Zionists’ weapons of genocide.

Still as true today, unfortunately, as it was in August last year.

Successive governments of the ruling class of the ‘neutral’ Irish State have actively colluded too in genocide through refusing to bar Irish airspace to Zionist military supply flights1 or to monitor and prevent US military flights through Shannon airport.

MARCH AROUND SOUTHSIDE CITY CENTRE

From outside Leinster house the protesters proceeded southwards up Kildare Street, turning right to flank Stephens’ Green, where they paused to chant more slogans and display banners and placards to stopped Luas trams before then turning northward into Grafton Street.

In that pedestrianised shopping street the march stopped near one of the many buskers regularly performing there, apparently Italian who launched into an amplified rendition of a celebrated song from the Italian antifascist tradition, Bella Ciao, with many of the marchers joining in.

The northward march continued with stops up Westmoreland Street, where the clientele of a pub came out to cheer and applaud the marchers. Then on to the southern end of O’Connell Bridge, occupying both southward and northward-bound lanes with traffic blocked in both directions.

Protesters urge Poland to arrest Netanyahu for Genocide as he Hypocritically visits Auschwitz

As a US vassal Warsaw refuses to obey the International Arrest Warrant for Israel’s prime minister who continues to direct the massacre, torture, starvation and kidnap of thousands of men, women and kids

Hundreds of people marched in Warsaw on Friday to protest against the Polish government’s decision not to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

In November, The Hague-based court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former defense minister, Yoav Gallant, on charges of committing war crimes in Gaza. On Thursday, the office of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced that Warsaw would not arrest Netanyahu if the Israeli leader travels to Poland for the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi Auschwitz death camp during World War II.

screenshot The crowd chanted “arrest Netanyahu,” as well as accusations that Tusk and Polish President Andrzej Duda are “defending genocide.”

Because the ICC lacks any police force or enforcement powers of its own, it relies on the countries that signed the Rome Statute to enforce its warrants. Poland signed the treaty, but Israel did not. Netanyahu has denied the accusations of war crimes and reaffirmed that the Jewish state does not recognize the court’s jurisdiction.

The Israeli prime minister is not currently planning to attend the ceremony commemorating the 1945 liberation of Auschwitz, the Times of Israel wrote on Thursday, citing an aide in the Netanyahu cabinet. Netanyahu may consider attending, but Poland would have to “solve the ICC issue” first, the aide said.

On Thursday, the US House of Representatives passed a bill authorizing the imposition of sanctions on the ICC if the court charges Americans or citizens of vassal nations.

The US does not recognize the court’s jurisdiction and has refused to back the outstanding warrant despite the ongoing daily mass murders directed by Netanyahu.

There are no ‘Humanitarian Zones’ or ‘Evacuation Orders’ in Gaza – Let’s not repeat Israeli Lies!

It is time the world starts using the correct terminology for Israel’s actions in Gaza: genocide.

PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL-CONFLICT

As you read this, many families in Gaza are weighing whether they should flee their current shelter and risk having to endure the harsh winter out on the streets or risk being bombed and killed where they are. There is no guarantee that they will be safe from Israel’s bombs and bullets if they choose either option.

Yes, you read that right – the people in these “humanitarian zones” received “evacuation orders” and had to flee to save their lives, often with just the clothes on their backs 10 or more times in jut over a year.

The research, based on the testimonies of displaced Palestinians on the ground, revealed that Israel’s “evacuation orders” often give people just an hour, and sometimes even less, to pack up what remains of their lives and run for their lives. And when they agree to “evacuate”, they are often still chased by a hail of bullets as they try to find new shelter in another “humanitarian zone”.

The devastating details in the report, titled Erasure by Design, make it clear that there are no real humanitarian zones in Gaza and that the “evacuation orders” Israel issues are not aimed at getting Palestinians out of harm’s way.  The use of these terms by Israel, its allies and international media serve only to whitewash what is happening before our eyes in Gaza: land grabs under the threat of extermination.

The Israeli military is not acting humanely or doing Palestinians a favour when it threatens them with death by bombing if they do not leave their homes and makeshift shelters

It is not driving exhausted, starving people constantly from one place to another under threat of death and maiming, using difficult to decipher guidance, out of humanitarian concern.

is doing so to ensure nowhere in Gaza is safe for Palestinians.

It is trying to kill two birds with one stone: creating the illusion of adherence to humanitarian law while laying the groundwork for illegally expanding Israeli territory
