Zionist police raided the Batn al-Hawa neighborhood in the city of Silwan, shortly after Jewish illegal immigrants attacked Palestinians there.
Jerusalem: It is not enough to detain Palestinians, their donkeys are also 'detained' by the Zionist army.
The Israeli military claims the donkey should be arrested for being used by Palestinians to ‘endanger’ the Jewish population.

What's more degrading than being forced to demolish your own home or else pay your oppressors to do it for you? That's the decision Palestinians in #Silwan have been forced to make. Today, those who couldn't bear to demolish their home will watch as Israel demolishes it for them.
Approximately 1,500 Palestinians, including an estimated 930 children, in Silwan face violent forced displacement by Israeli authorities. Many of the dispossessed Palestinian families have lived in their Silwan homes for generations. #SaveSilwan
The US and much of the world remain silent as Israel *illegally* demolishes Palestinian homes and ruins Palestinian lives to make way for a religious theme park.
This is ethnic cleansing– plain and simple. And it must END. #FreePalestine

[Thread] 1/ Here are some reflections on legal repression as applicable to how Israel uses it against Palestinians to facilitate ethnic cleansing #SaveSilwan #PalestinianLivesMatter
2/ 'Law is used as an instrument to extend control over society, subjecting persons to rules laid down through particular institutions. The establishment of specific laws and the use of legal repression can result in ‘rule by law’ instead of ‘rule of law’' #SaveSilwan
3/ 'In ‘rule by law’, or repressive law, ‘there is little or no separation between law and politics, and the dictates and policies of the rulers trump laws’....repressive law are those laws and systems in which law is designed to uphold the social order [The Occupation)''
Israel has renamed the Palestinian village of Silwan to an Israeli name in anticipation of their occupational violence.
There is a deadline for Palestinian families to demolish their own Palestinian homes on Palestinian ground, or pay Israel for the demolition of their homes.

This is ongoing, right now. Many of the Palestinian families that live in Silwan have indicated they do not intend to cooperate with the destruction of their homes by the illegal occupation, and we all know what is likely to happen to them. #SaveSilwan
Occupation, apartheid, persecution, silencing, violence, destruction, erasure. This type of occupational escalation is happening is so many places across Palestine right now that just listing them would take most of a tweet.
PLEASE SHARE- MONDAY DAY OF ACTION: Palestinian people in Silwan, #Jerusalem are in danger of being forcibly expelled from their homes. The Israeli government is threatening to demolish the homes this Monday for Jewish Israeli settlers to take over the land. #WeWillRemain
The Israeli ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Silwan is part of Zionism’s long and violent history across all of Palestine, which the U.S. has funded for decades. #SaveSilwan #SaveSheikhJarrah #WeWillRemain

Stand on the right side of history and defend Silwan! Tell Democratic leadership to stop giving Israel the green light on ethnic cleansing:
Pihak berkuasa Isr25l terus melakukan kekerasan ke atas penduduk Al-Quds yang berhimpun di mahkamah untuk proses rayuan pengusiran Hayy Silwan.
Ditangkap, dipukul & ditutup mata. Ini yang mereka perlu hadapi hanya untuk membantah kezaliman ke atas mereka. #SavePalestine

1. Do not talk to the police. There are police liaisons whose role is to do this. If police talk to you, direct them to the police liaison.
2. If you have a concern or need help during the action, talk to an organizer. Organizers are wearing brightly coloured armbands.

I attended as an individual. I am not affiliated with any PAC or organization. I obviously do not speak for or represent the #Palestinian people. There’s like 7 million of us at least, and like 2 million of #Palestinians stuffed in #Gaza alone.
To the #Palestinian Americans who boycotted this meeting after the #Biden Administration handed Israel $735 million dollars in weaponry following the merciless attacks on Palestinians locked in Gaza.
This is happening today!

Join us to stand with workers and community organizers in Oakland, who have blocked a cargo ship operated by ZIM — apartheid israel's largest and oldest shipping company — from docking for over ten days.
I've been wanting to talk about my family history a little on here for a while but it never seemed like the right time. Trudeau's comments this morning really ignited a fire in me, though, so if you're interested you can find a little about that below.

The arrests of Muna and Mohammed El Kurd are completely unacceptable. As two of the most vocal activists in bringing international awareness to #SaveSheikhJarrah, these are political arrests designed to censor Palestinians from speaking out.

The international community must put pressure on Israel to release them. If you care at all about freedom of speech or the rights of marginalized people to protest apartheid this issue should be of huge concern to you.
UPDATE: MUNA EL-KURD HAS BEEN RELEASED, but we still need to push for Israel to #FreeMohammedElKurd. We don't know what's happening with him.
I am a runner.
I run marathons around whole world. Never have I been attacked violently by police forces as I was today, during the Jerusalem run from #SaveSheikhJarrah to #SaveSilwan.
I was beaten six times, attacked by Israeli forces, for running in my ancestral town & city.

We ran 3.5 kilometres from Sheikh Jarrah to Silwan. I arrived at the finish line Batn Al-Hawa, Silwan neighbourhood under threat of ethnic cleansing by Israel.
All runners wore t-shirts that had # 7850 printed on back, the number of Palestinian Jerusalemites under threat.

Out of nowhere, Israeli forces raided the finish line, where we had gathered and been singing songs, drinking water, and resting our legs.
They were violent, attacked everyone indiscriminately, beating, throwing grenades, & firing rubber bullets at some.

Like most Jews of my generation, I grew up with the phrase “Never again.” My mom is a Holocaust survivor and it resonated. But if the phrase is to mean anything it has to apply to all people.

Last week was 73rd anniversary of the Israeli massacre at Tantura, a Palestinian fishing village. It was one of at least 37 massacres that took place during the Nakba (or “war of independence” as Israel calls it).

A survivor reported:
One officer selected 40 men and took them to the village square. Each four were taken aside. They shot one, and ordered the other three to dump his body in a big pit. Then they shot another and the other two carried his body to the pit and so on.

In Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan, 1,500 Palestinians face the threat of forced displacement and home demolitions by Israeli settlers working in collusion with the Israeli government and military.

Most families in these neighborhoods are refugees from the beginning of the Nakba in 1948, when Zionist militas violently expelled 750,000 Palestinians from their homes. For them, their impending forced displacement in 2021 is especially painful.
