THREAD: As @hrw comes out with a new report highlighting Israeli apartheid in Palestine, it is important to remember that Palestinians have been exposing Israeli apartheid for decades.
Here are just some examples:
Here are just some examples:
In this 2017 piece, @yarahawari examined the apartheid analysis as it applies to the Palestinian citizens of Israel, with a particular focus on citizenship, land, education, and politics https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/apartheid-within-palestinian-citizens-israel/">https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/ap...
This 2017 policy brief by @haidareid & Andy Clarno argues that "To bring about true justice and equality for Palestinians, apartheid must be recognized as a system not only of legal racial discrimination but also of racial capitalism" https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/rethinking-definition-apartheid-not-just-political-regime/">https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/re...
In this evergreen piece from 2012, Hazem Jamjoum ( @fightapartheid) discussed how forced population transfer, including the denial of refugee return, lies at the core of Israel’s brand of apartheid https://al-shabaka.org/commentaries/refugees-israeli-apartheids-unseen-dimension/">https://al-shabaka.org/commentar...
In 2018 our first Policy Lab episode was a discussion between our analysts @yarahawari and @dianabuttu on the Apartheid framework in the Palestinian context and its benefits for the liberation struggle

In one of Al-Shabaka& #39;s early pieces back in 2013, @SamerAbdelnour identified three inter-locking dimensions of Israeli apartheid: physical, architecture, and ideological, revealing Israeli apartheid to be far more sophisticated than that of South Africa https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/beyond-south-africa-understanding-israeli-aparthei/">https://al-shabaka.org/briefs/be...
Israeli COVID-19 policies have reignited the discussion on apartheid in Palestine.
Earlier this year Al-Shabaka analyst & doctor Osama Tanous told @TheRealNews that denying Palestinians access to vaccines is a feature of Israeli colonial structure https://al-shabaka.org/mentions/israels-vaccine-apartheid-is-killing-palestinians/">https://al-shabaka.org/mentions/...

"Decades of settler-colonial rule, military occupation, and repeated deadly assaults have taught Palestinians not to expect any “solidarity” from the Israeli apartheid government," Osama Tanous wrote in this 2020 @AJEnglish oped https://bit.ly/2PtLjJq ">https://bit.ly/2PtLjJq&q...
Amid 2020 Israeli annexation threats, @aj_iraqi wrote in @972mag "It is rather obscene that...people are still waiting for a specific piece of legislation, or a certain govt order, to validate the accounts of millions of Palestinians experiencing apartheid https://www.972mag.com/palestinians-annexation-apartheid-south-africa/">https://www.972mag.com/palestini...
Al-Shabaka& #39;s health expert @Yara_M_Asi joined this @FMEP webinar to explain Israeli medical apartheid & stress Israel& #39;s legal obligations to provide health for Palestinians as an occupying force, according to int& #39;l law & beyond the Oslo accords https://fmep.org/resource/medical-apartheid-covid-vaccinations-under-occupation/">https://fmep.org/resource/...
And last but not least, commenting on @btselem report on Israeli apartheid, @Lana_Tatour & our podcast host @yarahawari discussed the importance of both the apartheid analysis & the settler-colonial framework within discussions on Palestinian liberation https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/limitations-possibilities-apartheid-framework-lana/id1537774938?i=1000507182508">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas...
