🎥 “Who else is leading a cause that we will glorify in retrospect, but is being vilified in the present?”

Speaking at the Nelson Mandela Foundation’s Global Leadership Forum, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani drew a direct line from Mandela’s refusal to abandon the Palestinian cause to the fight for global solidarity and Palestinian freedom today.

Recalling how Mandela was branded a terrorist and pressured to renounce his principles, Mamdani asked: “Who are we treating today the way Madiba was treated before history declared him a messiah?”

Citing Omar El Akkad’s book on the genocide in Gaza, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” Mamdani said “justice is not measured by where we stand after history has issued its verdict. It is measured by where we stand when the verdict is still being rendered.”

“Why must Doctor Hussam Abu Safiya wait more than 18 months for freedom in Israeli detention,” he asked, “after the world watched him be kidnapped as he left his hospital?”

“Why must we wait to practice solidarity until it no longer costs us anything?”

@AbubakerAbedW The west is complicit in the genocide..they are in the wrong side of history 😞

[Abubaker Abed @AbubakerAbedW]

The bill has been approved. Israeli prisons will turn into guillotines for Palestinians.

Hundreds will be executed in the next few weeks. 9300 hostages now in Israeli custody.

Dark day for humanity. Unforgettable memory in the Palestinian cause history.

Let’s stop calling it settler violence. It is settler TERROR. These criminals roam the West Bank with impunity, and the world stays silent.

@academic_la Part of the plan all along. We weren't sure where the hostages were, yet Israhell kept pounding the bombs. They are not "hostages".They are chess pieces in israhell's game of dominance. Disgracefull.

[Deb Lee @1305deb]

@academic_la Figures. Goes right along with Israhell style. Absolutely shameful.

Before flying home to Bogotá on Friday night, Colombian President Gustavo Petro was asked in New York how an “international army to liberate Palestine” could be created. He replied that it could be done “quite easily” with a two-thirds UN General Assembly vote (through the Uniting for Peace Resolution he intends to introduce). Such a step, Petro argued, would present the U.S. and Israel with an “army of humanity” more powerful than their own, forcing them to negotiate since they “cannot turn…against humanity itself.” It could compel genuine peace talks through sanctions and further Assembly action, he added.

In a passionately defiant speech at the UNGA, President Petro of Colombia has just announced a proposal for a UN protection force to stop the genocide in Palestine. The process has begun, and this process has no veto behind which to hide. All states will now have to say yes or no to protection for a people facing extermination. History will record every vote. And so will we.

BREAKING!!!

US Capitol Police & ICE Arrest Billboard Truck Driver Protesting Gaza Famine Close to Ongoing US Media Protest Encampment in Washington, D.C.

The driver of the truck (hired by Justice For All) was arrested while operating a digital billboard truck outside NBC's Washington headquarters at 400 North Capitol Street, NW, where a media encampment on Gaza has been ongoing for 4 weeks. The truck displayed urgent messaging on Israel's manufactured famine, including President Trump's recent admission that children in Gaza face "real starvation."

This chilling escalation raises grave concerns that federal law enforcement is being weaponized to intimidate immigrant workers and silence Palestinian advocacy in the U.S.

⚡️BREAKING: Freedom Flotilla rescued after being targeted by Israeli drones in International water.

The Maltese government stated that the vessel and its crew were rescued in the early hours of the morning after a nearby tug assisted with firefighting operations.

According to Israel’s Channel 12, Israel carried out the drone attack on the flotilla carrying aid for Gaza.

At around 12:30 AM Malta time, two drone strikes targeted the ship, causing a fire and a breach in the hull. The strikes specifically targeted the generator. The ship itself was carrying 30 international human rights activists.

Images show the aftermath of the drone strikes on the vessel and video is showing the initial momenta following the drone strikes
