How to legitimize the genocide against Palestinians? 14 visual steps

Two social activists named "Nora Lester Murad" and "Meryem Aswad" living in America explained how the Palestinian genocide was legitimized in 14 steps.

The comics "Nora Lester Murad" and "Meryem Esved" show how Zionists and their supporters legitimize the genocide of Palestinians in the occupied territories.

Eradicating any fair and accurate analysis of how violence against Palestinians occurred

Eliminate all reality. Always portray Palestinians as aggressors. Blame the Palestinians by attributing the atrocities to them

Monopolize the media. Continue the discrediting of Palestinians and the normalization of their deprivation by threatening, deporting and even killing journalists

Dehumanize Palestinians; Use anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab and anti-Muslim words

Weaponize antisemitism. Accuse any Palestinian who tries to tell his or her story of spreading anti-Semitism

Use liberal and anti-racist literature and words to make it seem like you're good people

Criminalize liberatory activities. Condemn all attempts by Palestinians to defend their rights, even by non-violent means

Repeat Israel's claims without research so that emotions prevail over rationality

Create trauma and terror. Tell the Jews about the terrible things of the past so they will fear peace with the Palestinians

Fool people into thinking that progress toward respect and equality is occurring through rhetoric and outward actions while maintaining the status quo.

Lead society to choose a side. Hide the fact that a just and political solution enhances the rights, security and dignity of all and offers the only sustainable future.

And step 14: Start brainwashing and repeat
