“Real news involves poll numbers and hundreds of bottles of baby oil and pets in Ohio who are not actually being eaten. Genocide, on the other hand, is something more like weather. Despite all reports to the contrary, the Earth is cold and getting colder.” flaminghydra.com/issue-168/

TODAY: @BenEhrenreich on the horrifying repetition of the news out of Gaza. "It feels quaint, stupid even, to observe that it is a war crime to bomb schools." flaminghydra.com/issue-168/

“The whole world has conducted acts of terrorism against us, only to call us terrorists.” If you haven’t yet, read @MariamBarghouti’s report from Jenin. dropsitenews.com/p/jenin-west-b…

In Jenin, the Israeli army is destroying civilian infrastructure, blocking medical access, and conducting mass arrests in its largest West Bank operation in years. @MariamBarghouti reports. 972mag.com/jenin-operatio…


It is at this point all too easy to see that unless the US stops giving Israel weapons, the genocide will extend to the West Bank.

Israeli forces shot directly at the car of two Palestinian journalists in Kufr Dan, west of Jenin. Their car was clearly marked PRESS. One was injured in his arm with a live bullet and the other with shrapnel.

I was in Jenin and I cannot explain how ruthless the Israeli military is being. The city is like a ghost town and the refugee camp is a collective torture chamber. Israeli practices in Jenin include: Mass arrests including minors, Blowing up homes of civilians Denying entry…

The range of ideas in the public sphere is sooooooooo tiny. It's almost embarrassing, except that it is actually criminal and tragic.
