I don& #39;t write about Israel/Palestine anymore, but please understand that the violence in Jerusalem is an escalation of *long-standing* incitement & violence against Palestinians. A thread of just a few references to both from over the years: https://twitter.com/emilylhauser/status/484207437067460608">https://twitter.com/emilylhau...

Here& #39;s one linking to an article from 2012 that& #39;s especially relevant to the violence of this week. Every spring, between Israeli Independence Day & Jerusalem Day (when "reunification" is marked), these kinds of events take place, peaking on Jerusalem Day: https://twitter.com/emilylhauser/status/202422918028853248">https://twitter.com/emilylhau...

I& #39;m going to stop because if I kept going I could literally do this all day.
My point: All kinds of people are going to tell you that they& #39;re shocked & stunned & horrified about the violence in Jerusalem. If they& #39;re not lying, they& #39;re fools. https://twitter.com/emilylhauser/status/238338041234735105">https://twitter.com/emilylhau...

"The simple truth is that these people – just like the settlers who set mosques alight & the soldiers who kick little boys – are doing what we let them do.... Those who don’t stand up against that which is wrong are partners in the outcome." https://forward.com/opinion/198457/zionism-wasnt-kidnapped-it-was-handed-over/">https://forward.com/opinion/1...
