A major new report by U.S. academics analyzes Israel’s occupation of Palestine under the legal framework of the crime of apartheid.
The report was intentionally released on Nakba Day — the day that marks the mass expulsion of Palestinians from their homes.
Citing dozens of experts, human rights organizations and judicial decisions, it concludes that Israel’s treatment of Palestinians “meets the legal threshold of apartheid.”

Why Palestinians Commemorate the Nakba and Why You Should Join Them.
Every year, Palestinians commemorate the Nakba, or "Catastrophe," marking the violent ethnic cleansing and forced displacement of over 750,000 Palestinians and the colonisation of Palestine by the Zionists in 1948. But the Nakba is not just a historical event, it is an Ongoing Nakba. For 77 years, Palestinians have lived under brutal occupation, apartheid, and systematic oppression by Zionist forces seeking to erase their identity, culture, and homeland.
Now more than ever, the Palestinian people are enduring the most extreme phase of this ongoing Nakba. In Gaza, they are facing an outright genocide, carried out with impunity. Hospitals bombed, families wiped out, entire neighborhoods turned to rubble. The world is witnessing a genocide and a modern-day Nakba, and silence is complicity.
Join us on May 15th at 18:00 at Domplein, Utrecht, to commemorate the Nakba and stand against the Genocide of the Palestinian people.

"Die Folgen sind noch nicht hinreichend erforscht".
Wie lange soll denn das dauern?
Dafür dass so viele gegen die übermäßige Handynutzung sind, hört man in der öffentl. Diskussion aber ganz schön wenig darüber.
"Besonders hoch ist die Zustimmung für den Vorschlag unter den 18- bis 24-Jährigen."
Das sind diejenigen die die Folgen mit sich rumtragen.

The image is a two-panel meme featuring a doll character. In the top panel, the doll is sitting on a couch, holding a pink telephone to her ear. She is wearing a white sweater and has blonde hair. The text in this panel reads, "Amiga, estas trabajando?" (Friend, are you working?). In the bottom panel, the doll is standing, holding a gold-colored smartphone. She is wearing a black turtleneck and a black skirt with white polka dots, along with large hoop earrings. The text in this panel reads, "Si, pero puedo renunciar, decime" (Yes, but I can quit, tell me). The background in both panels appears to be an indoor setting with a window and some wall decorations.

A sinistra, una donna con capelli castani corti indossa una maglietta rosa con la scritta "FAMIGLIE CON ORA ENO" e tiene un microfono. Sullo sfondo, altre persone indossano magliette rosa e una bandiera arcobaleno è visibile, suggerendo un contesto di protesta o manifestazione.
A destra, una donna con capelli neri ricci indossa una maglietta nera e tiene un microfono. Ha un badge rosa con la scritta "FAMIGLIE" sul petto e si trova in un contesto urbano con edifici e vegetazione sullo sfondo.
Entrambe le donne sembrano essere coinvolte in un evento pubblico, probabilmente una manifestazione o una protesta, con un focus sulla famiglia e i diritti LGBTQ+.
