Nothing terrifies the colony more than evidence of the existence of the indigenous people it's attempting to erase.

So terrifying are the indigenous flags to the most heavily armed and technologically advanced colony in the Middle East, that Israel's Minister of National Security calls them "terrorism" and "incitement to terrorism".
Because for Israel, anything Palestinian- from pieces of cloth on a stick to human rights organizations- is terrorism.

While Jewish worshippers celebrate Sukkot, apartheid Israel continues to violently repress the Indigenous Palestinians. Many areas including Nablus in the occupied West Bank and Shufat and Anata in occupied East Jerusalem have been placed under siege.

Israeli settlers, often under the watchful eye of Israel's apartheid forces, carried out violent attacks against Indigenous Palestinians and their property across the occupied West Bank.

🧵With our friends in @AmnestyIreland, today we stood outside the Irish parliament as part of the global #UNinvestigateApartheid day of action calling for the Irish government to take the lead in pushing #UNGA to dismantle Israel's system of racist apartheid. 🇮🇪♥️🇵🇸
Participants were demanding that the United Nations investigate Israel for committing the Crime of Apartheid against the #Palestinian people, and take action to end it. (Pictured: Aisling Mickletwhaite, Chair of @ipsc48 & Deirdre Walsh, Youth Activism Officer at @AmnestyIreland)
Even though the Oireachtas doesn't sit on Mondays, we were happy to be joined by a number of elected representatives to say #UNinvestigateApartheid, such as @RBoydBarrett TD from @pb4p
Israel apartheid systematically deprives Palestinians of their lands to allow settlement expansion and to steal natural resources.
In 1981, Israel declared 3000 ha of the 3600 ha that make up Masafar Yatta as military Firing Zone 918. Over 40 years later, this serves as a pretext to forcibly expel the Palestinian population.

Firing Zone 918 was created directly as a tool of expulsion & colonization.
Then agriculture minister, Ariel Sharon, later prime minister, proposed Firing Zone 918 with the explicit intention of forcing local Palestinians from their homes & build Jewish-only settlements instead.

End of August, at the start of the school year, Israel escalated systematic attacks to stop families from sending their children to school.
Apartheid Israel denies Palestinians the right to education to try to drive them out of the 8 villages.

4 schools in Masafer Yatta (Jinba, Khalet Athaba’, Khirbet Al-Fakhiet, Khirbet al-Majaz) received demolition orders last week and Umm Qassah School, which serves 50 students from 4 Bedouin villages, is under threat from demolition since last year.
As the school year started, Israeli occupation forces denied teachers & students access to their schools in Jinba and Al-Fakhiet & arrested a teacher confiscating his car that he needs to reach the school.

On the 40th anniversary of the Israeli massacre in the Palestinian refugee camps Sabra and Shatila, we watch in horror as Palestinians living in Masafer Yatta are facing the largest forced expulsion since 1967 at the hands of the same military.
Right now in Masafer Yatta, there are 12 Palestinian villages and 2 schools that could be demolished at any moment. The people of Masafer Yatta, half of them children, are subjected to daily attacks and nightly raids by the Israeli military and settlers.
Since the start of the school year in Masafer Yatta, the Israeli military stopped and detained Palestinian teachers and students nearly every day on their way to class. These abhorrent tactics are intended to target Masafer Yatta’s most vulnerable population: children.
The Palestinian-led BDS movement marks its 17th anniversary today!

As a grassroots, anti-racist, nonviolent global movement, BDS plays a critical role in the struggle to expose and dismantle Israel’s regime of settler-colonialism, military occupation and apartheid.

We, Indigenous Palestinians, have been struggling for a century against the Zionist settler colonial project, which in 1948 established Israel as an apartheid regime.
Our struggle to resist its ethnic cleansing and fragmentation of our people & land is now bearing fruit.

The case is clear.
The Israeli government’s increased brutality against Palestinians is exactly how it maintains its apartheid regime & continues ethnic cleansing.
@UN is responsible to investigate–& dismantle–Israeli apartheid.
