‘In the anxiety of seeing atrocity after atrocity on a daily basis, there is no rational calculation of what could be “worse” in the future. Only a desperation to end what is intolerable in the present.’ This week’s column on the Democrats and Gaza theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The “Middle East” region remains in the throngs of colonial discourses whereby the governing elites all beholden and answer to foreign powers and use their military power to suppress, intimidate and kill their populations so as to keep the status quo. The political, economic,…

This is why I criticize the media for manufacturing consent for genocide. The deleted Sky news story and narrative of events in Amsterdam is just a small example of the way Western media has framed not only Gaza, but also Israel’s decades-long occupation and system of apartheid.

Again, Israeli media is more honest about the actions of the Israeli government than US media. How many Western outlets have you seen actually call it what it is: ETHNIC CLEANSING.

Trump’s Middle East plans will be the Abraham Accords on steroids centering on normalization between Israel and Saudi Arabia, which “they hope” will bring few more countries into the fold. As for Palestine, give Israel annexation “rights” of area B and C while creating a South…

Parents, children, grandchildren among at least 32 people reported killed in Israeli dawn strikes on Jabalia residence northern #Gaza. “The UN has confirmed children are the main victims of residential strikes. Make no mistake: this is a war on children” Jeremy Stoner @scmenaee

How anyone can still justify holidaying in Dubai I don’t know. Sudan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Palestine all suffering either through the UAE’s direct actions or its complicity.

While international airlines are canceling flights to Tel Aviv over the genocide in Gaza, Israeli sources report that UAE's FlyDubai is adding a sixth flight today to Ben Gurion Airport, with plans to operate 8 daily flights starting Sunday.

This staggering graph just published by the United Nations shows the ages of people killed by Israel in Gaza. The base of this "pyramid" of death are babies and toddlers. This is not a war, it is a massacre of innocents.

There is an excess of hot takes and straight up feelings after this brutal election. It’s understandable as we brace ourselves for what’s next, but we will never overcome this if we continue to punch down.

“Innocent Israelis, Bad Arabs? How the Media Scripted Amsterdam's Soccer Violence: The NYT, BBC, CNN, among others emphasized the attacks on Israeli fans, while minimizing the anti-Arab racism that seemingly provoked much of the violence.” - @marcowenjones zeteo.com/p/amsterdam-vi…

“Its analysis found around 44% of verified victims were children and 26% women. The ages most represented among the dead were five to nine-year-olds.” bbc.com/news/articles/…

The age group most killed in the ongoing genocide in Gaza are 5 to 9 year-olds. Sit with that.

While you’re distracted by Amsterdam, there’s still a genocide happening in Gaza. This is what Israeli “soccer fans” were joyfully cheering on.

Today entering Gaza City. The ruins of life. A donkey laying dead attached to a cart with someone’s possessions. Clusters of people crossing to the South, with too much to walk with under the sun and given the length of the journey. A man carrying a white flag in front of his…

Sadly, this is not a surprise. #famine is likely happening in northern #Gaza This is man made. Hunger has been weaponized by the State of Israel. This deprives people in Gaza of the basics including food to survive. What is being allowed into Gaza is not enough, an…

The Biden administration’s refusal to do ANYTHING to pressure Netanyahu to stop this slaughter is the greatest stain on his time in office. A catastrophic failure on a moral, strategic and political level.

Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says bbc.in/4fH3RfP

Just as Israel declares its intention of committing the atrocity crime of forcible removal of all civilians from their homes in Northern Gaza, I find this message in the rubble of Gaza City: “As long as there is zaatar and olives, we will remain here”.

Gaza: absolutely heartbreaking to meet my NRC colleagues here, who have been through so much. One of them had 126 relatives killed, in a single Israeli attack, in Beit Lahia. Cousins, nieces, children... killed. Such attacks are the definition of disproportionate warfare.

Fascism has definitely grown among some groups like young men, but it's not the main story. Fascists and the Democrat machine will promote that as the primary reason for a Trump popular vote victory. A myth serving them both. 2020 Biden 81.3M Trump 73.2M 2024 Harris 68.9M…
