The degree of evil needed to commit genocide while preaching human rights is beyond most people's capacity to fathom...

Human rights are not the heritage or the aspiration of any one nationality, any one faith, any one ideology, any one region, or any other characteristic – they're universal. — @SecBlinken

This New Year's Eve, as children are dying of cold, hunger and bombs, do not let them get away with the Big Lie that it all started on 7th October.

You'll never hear liberals criticize anything Trump has done about Iran, Syria, or Palestine because stealing land, oil theft, sanctions, and assassinations there were all Israel First policies and we both know how much they love Israel. Indistinguishable.

When Iranian police beat women in the streets for standing up for their rights, the world - and Germany - rightfully condemned it. But those condemnations ring very hollow now as German police beat and kick elderly women for objecting to Israel's slaughter of Palestinians.

Today, we marched to the U.S embassy with a simple demand: stop arming Israel. We are going to be here as long as it takes to bring about peace and justice. We will never walk away from the people of Palestine.

One effect of the Israeli military taking its campaign in northern Gaza to new levels of violence is to produce events so extreme they’re hard for people to even believe — especially as the media largely ignores what’s happening

This story has been confirmed by a number of survivors and yet it hasn't made even a ripple in the international news.

The humanitarian situation in northern Gaza is the worst we have seen since this horrific nightmare began. Our polio vaccination campaign should be underway now but we’ve been forced to suspend it due to relentless violence & a persistent lack of access. This places some of the war’s most vulnerable victims at further risk. And in the central Gaza Strip, a strike took the life of yet another one of our @UNRWA colleagues. We urgently need a ceasefire, the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages, effective aid delivery, an end to the occupation & irreversible progress toward a two-state solution.

Germany is making a killing out of Israel's genocide while preaching human rights to Global South countries...

Hey @MarkRuffalo, did you see @KamalaHarris brag about record oil production & expanding fracking? You know the IRA requires huge public land auctions for oil & gas before expanding renewables? Is endless war eco-friendly? Voting blue as they destroy our planet is not a “win.”

If you actually seriously give a single care about climate change or the environment, you will not vote for Jill Stein. We don’t have another 4 years on Trump to waste. Fight to win, not to lose. #HarrisWalz2024 #VoteBlue

In just 6 hours, IDF fired at UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, Doctors Without Borders denounced killing of their colleague in Gaza, CPJ condemned Israel killing journalists in Lebanon and the WHO called again for protection of hospitals. Israel is the definition of a rogue state.

BBC News reports that the journalists in south Lebanon thought they were safe because they had been giving their location to UN troops who were passing it on to the Israelis. It turns out the Israelis used that information to bomb them.

There are numerous journalists working for US media outlets who have served in the Israeli military, worked for Israeli intelligence, been Israeli prison guards. This should be disclosed on every single article they write about Israel’s war against the Palestinians of Gaza.

As a Jew who grew up just after the Holocaust, I was told we could never again allow genocide to happen. US support for Israel committing genocide shames all of us, and it's our moral duty to do everything we can to fight it. #Debate2024

You cannot be this stupid. His parents were both Palestinian and born in Palestine. Famous "Israeli" David Ben-Gurion (Grün) AND his parents were Polish and born in Poland. Famous "Israeli" Gold Meir (Mabovitch) was Ukrainian, like her parents, and born in Kiev & moved to Milwaukee at 8 y/o. I could go on but I'd be here all night. Famous "Israelis" Chaim Weizmann Menachem Begin were from Belarus. Famous "Israeli" Shimon Peres was from Poland. You want to talk about parents? Bibi's dad was from Poland & changed his last name from Mileikowsky. Naftali Bennett's parents moved to Israel from San Francisco. I could go on but I'd be here all night.

The most famous "Palestinian" was an Egyptian born in Cairo.

Macron just accused Israel of "barbarism" in response to Netanyahu's oft-repeated claim that he was defending civilization: "I'm not sure you can defend civilization by sowing barbarism yourselves". x.com/BFMTV/status/1… See you tomorrow for his apologies to Netanyahu and a statement explaining how Israel has "the right to defend itself"... I wish I was kidding but that's exactly what "macroning" is, saying something one day and its polar opposite the day after... He's completely obliterated the little credibility France had left and managed the rather amazing feat of positioning himself as France's most pro-Israel president ever in the eyes of the Muslim world, and anti-Israel in the eyes of Israelis... When you try to please everyone you displease all 🤷‍♂️

Never conflate "Ethnostate" and "Exclusive Settler Colonialism"; they can be quite opposite to one another. In Ethnostates, natives close the border to foreigners. In Exclusive Settler Colonialism, foreign settlers disposess, expel, & separate natives (Apartheid).

After 10 years of soft interviews, Stoltenberg is asked questions about his hawkish stance. It is revealed that he is unaware of basic facts

While these scenes are hard to process, it is important to understand that extrajudicial executions of Palestinian civilians—often children—are absolutely not isolated incidents. These events represent a part of the systematic and widespread actions being carried out by Israeli soldiers in Gaza. The rationale? The opportunity to target (and destroy) the Palestinians, which the State of Israel appears determined not to let slip away.

A child mowed down by an Israeli snipper, then passers by who tried to help bombed. That's what a war crime looks like. No one can now claim they did not know when the reckoning comes. No one!
