Not The Onion@lemmy.world•19-page PDF accuses Wikipedia of bias against Israel, suggests editors be forced to reveal their real names, and demands a new feature allowing people to view the history of Wikipedia articles
2·2 years agoFrom Anti-Israel and Anti-Zionist Campaigns - ADL
While criticism of Israeli policies and actions is part of that discourse, certain forms of anti-Israel rhetoric and activism delegitimize Israel and its existence, and are antisemitic when they vilify and negate Zionism – the movement for Jewish self-determination and statehood – or utilize anti-Jewish tropes or hold all Jews responsible for Israel’s actions.
- They try to portray zionism this way in order to legitimize settler colonialism, and equate anti-zionism with antisemitism. Historically this chance was lost well over a century ago. See quote above from Jewish Voice for Peace and their site for details.
- Check out the Ben Gurion and the critic he got from Bundists. If you like videos, this one is pretty informative:
The History of “Socialist” Zionism | Leftist Zionists did the Nakba & founded Israel - If you like text you could take a look at:
The Neglected History of the State of Israel - The Revisionist faction of Zionism that ended up triumphing adhered to literal fascist doctrines and traditions.

World News@lemmy.world•Is Germany targeting Jewish voices?
101·2 years agoI thought it would be important to include the following link:
Jewish Voice for Peace - Our Approach to Zionism
While it had many strains historically, the Zionism that took hold and stands today is a settler-colonial movement, establishing an apartheid state where Jews have more rights than others. Our own history teaches us how dangerous this can be.
Palestinian dispossession and occupation are by design. Zionism has meant profound trauma for generations, systematically separating Palestinians from their homes, land, and each other. Zionism, in practice, has resulted in massacres of Palestinian people, ancient villages and olive groves destroyed, families who live just a mile away from each other separated by checkpoints and walls, and children holding onto the keys of the homes from which their grandparents were forcibly exiled.

World News@lemmy.world•Germany Is Seizing Jews’ Money Again: It’s fine, they’re pro-Palestine
1·2 years agoIf you feel like you can take a look at Jewish Voice for Peace they are the once targeted as antisemitic due to the fact they are anti-zionist. It’s not complicated, it is portrayed this way.

6·2 years agoAnyone that knows anything about ADL knows they are not reliable whatsoever
Of course. Still, even if someone knows nothing about ADL, by making a simple search with the keywords “ADL zionism” they will have the relevant page that confirms they are zionists. I won’t add this link, but I will add the link of:

World News@lemmy.world•Germany Is Seizing Jews’ Money Again: It’s fine, they’re pro-Palestine
1·2 years agoIt’s right there in the headline
Oh the title. I read the article after a sneak-pick at the comment section and yours made me wonder to the point I did the ctr+f thingy.
Well, the title has a quite different quote and that’s what makes all the difference due to the historic reference. I think if you don’t like the title, you should hate the article because of what it is describing in relation to what is happening in Germany to Jewish people, and not about how this
articletitle is written.Do you deny that Jewish people suffer again on German ground, due to German policies using the argument of defending zionism?
Do you deny that zionism is historically related to fascism?[edit: oops I thought I was replying to @Tarte and not @rimjob_rainer. Well the questions are for both of you or anyone who cares to answer them. Just to note that suffering is a spectrum. I am not claiming that Genocide is happening again in Germany, but people being targeted to the point of having their bank accounts frozen is a punitive measure to make people suffer]

World News@beehaw.org•Security Council ceasefire resolution brings ‘little hope’ to Gaza as Israeli genocide rages on
4·2 years agoTake a look at Times of Israel in MBFC
Amongst other things it says:
Bias Rating: LEFT-CENTER
Factual Reporting: HIGH
Country: Israel
MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: MODERATE FREEDOM
Media Type: Website
Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
MBFC Credibility Rating: HIGH CREDIBILITYWhen covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they usually are objective and cover both sides fairly, such as this: IDF strikes fresh Hamas targets after 2nd rocket fired from Gaza Strip. However, during the conflict of 2023, they were less objective, focusing on the objectives of the Israeli military. In general, the Times of Israel is factual with a slight left-leaning editorial bias.
This is not a joke, just check it out.

World News@lemmy.world•Germany Is Seizing Jews’ Money Again: It’s fine, they’re pro-Palestine
156·2 years ago“seizing money” = temporarily frozen bank account until a legal dispute is settled
I didn’t find this term in the text (ctrl+f). Why do you have it in quotes?
Apart from that nowadays if a bank freezes a person’s account, it’s really hard to live/survive in many places in this world and Germany is one of them. Unless you use crypto, and not everybody does.
“Germany” = a German bank
Banks often freeze accounts in order to follow governmental policies, often of protesters. Meaning, one way or another this move is backed by the government.

World News@lemmy.world•What We Know About Palestinians Detained in Israel
62·2 years ago(…) Each one of these Palestinian prisoners has been processed by Israel’s military court system, which exists completely separate from the civilian court system that Jewish Israelis interact with. This system and the military orders that govern it have their origins in the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories in 1967.
In this video, two experts explain Israel’s military court system, why it’s been a focus of outcry from human rights organizations, and why hostage negotiations have historically involved the exchange of Palestinian prisoners.

World News@lemmy.world•Israel carries out several attacks inside Lebanon and Syria killing civilians
45·2 years ago- In relation to the NYT article’s that says:
Since Oct. 7, Hezbollah has been firing rockets into northern Israel on a near-daily basis.
It doesn’t mention where this statement is based upon.
-
The other 2 are from Israeli press, so there’s not much to trust there.
-
The CNN one is not related to my question

That’s a tricky one nowadays.
No christian (to my knowledge) has ever had an issue to wear a cross, which every now and then comes out of the t-shirt but it makes muslim girls from conservative families stay home, since they are not allowed to wear a scarf at school.
