Meta / Announcements Meta: Keeping r/Palestine On Topic (No Iran/Israel/US/Lebanon/Syria/Iraq/Yemen etc. war content)

54 Upvotes

Given the recent volume of posts, comments, reports and derailments, we are clarifying the scope of r/Palestine and what will be removed as off topic:

  • r/Palestine is focused on Palestine, Palestinians, and events directly affecting them.
  • Posts and comment chains primarily about other conflicts or political contexts – even if important – are not within this sub’s scope, unless there is a clear, direct, and substantial link to Palestine.

This includes, for example:

  • The Israel/US war on Iran
  • Israel’s war on Lebanon (including general Lebanon war discussion not clearly tied to Palestine)
  • Conflicts and politics in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen that are not directly connected to Palestine
  • American domestic politics (elections, parties, culture wars, general US policy debates)
  • Pakistan/Afghanistan politics and conflicts
  • China and the Uyghurs
  • Russia/Ukraine war
  • Other regional or global issues that do not have a direct, substantial connection to Palestine

Effective immediately:

  • New posts that are mainly about these topics, without a clear and substantial Palestine connection, will be removed as irrelevant to the sub. OP may be banned.
  • Comment threads that derail Palestine focused posts into general geopolitics or unrelated national politics may be locked or removed at moderator discretion. Users may be banned.

There are many other subreddits dedicated to broader regional or global politics. r/Palestine will remain focused on Palestine.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in keeping the community focused and usable for everyone.

If you have questions about this clarification, please contact the mod team via modmail.

West Bank Complicit: How the West is Helping Israel Seize the West Bank | Al Jazeera Investigates

Thumbnail

Upvotes

An undercover investigation by Al Jazeera reveals how western donors evade charity law to provide aid to illegal Israeli settlements.

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians in the West Bank. More than 230 of them are children. Attacks by settlers on rural Palestinian communities have increased, destroying property and capturing livestock, driving families from their homes. At the same time, the Israeli military has launched a large-scale assault on the densely populated Jenin refugee camp.

This film provides a comprehensive picture of the tactics the Israeli government uses to support the settlers and then, through infrastructure and building programmes, annex Palestinian land.
Western governments claim to oppose Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and uphold international law. However, undercover reporters from Al Jazeera expose how donors based in some Western countries fund the expansion of illegal settlements.

Al Jazeera journalists secretly film meetings with pro-settler organisations in Israel, claiming to be donors based in the UK looking to make large contributions to their projects. They’re told how funds can be paid as tax-deductible donations to charities in the UK and Canada who then pay the money on to their organisations. It is unlawful for charities in the UK and Canada to use donations to support the illegal settlement of the West Bank.

The Israeli organisations tell our undercover reporters how donations can be used to campaign for the demolition of Palestinian homes and provide military-grade security equipment such as drones and night vision cameras to settlers. We are also told that funds can be used to buy guns for settlers in occupied East Jerusalem and equipment for soldiers serving in the Israeli army.

The Israeli organisations are aware that their activities are considered unlawful in Canada and the UK and suggest ways to disguise the intended purpose of the donations, routing the funds through affiliated third parties and, in some cases, misreporting the true nature of their spending.

Charities in the UK and Canada are required to do extensive due diligence on how funds paid overseas are spent and to ensure they comply with the law. Al Jazeera’s evidence points to serious failings in this process.

The Australian federal court last Friday ruled against acclaimed pianist Jayson Gillham, who had brought a case against the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) alleging that he was the subject of political discrimination. 

The case revolved around the MSO’s extraordinary actions in August 2024. At one of a series of scheduled performances that month, Gillham made comments introducing “Witness,” a composition by Connor D’Netto “dedicated to the journalists of Gaza.” Gillham noted that the murder of journalists was a war crime and referenced the unprecedented number of reporters who had been killed by Israel in the course of its onslaught against the Palestinians of Gaza.
