Remembrance Day was founded to abolish war. We must refuse to let the day be used to glorify war or celebrate its acceleration but instead mark it by remembering ALL victims of war and taking action to end it.

See thread below for some actions you can take to oppose war.

This appeared in a major Israeli news feed. Not just justifying, but celebrating the death of a literal child. Needless to say, he is not a terrorist. The IDF claims he "intended to throw stones." Not even that he threw them. This is, of course, just an excuse to kill. One the Israeli people are happy to lap up.

🔺 “No More Delays. Open All Crossings.”

UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher says foreign ministers and partners told him progress on getting essential winter supplies into Gaza would have to wait until after Israeli elections. Now, he says, “we’re told to wait for the formation of a government.”

“This is not an acceptable excuse,” Fletcher said Wednesday, citing international humanitarian law, and noting that delays and blockages have already cost Palestinian lives.

Palestinians face deadly weather conditions that adequate shelter and winter supplies could protect them from, he said, demanding all crossings open immediately and aid organizations be allowed to work.

“Stop this collective punishment. Fund the plan. End this predictable, preventable suffering. The world is not powerless here.”

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign organized large protests outside the British Library in London as it hosted a musical performance. Protesters firmly rejected attempts to use art as a cover for normalization and to promote misleading narratives amid the ongoing genocide.

نظّمت حملة التضامن مع فلسطين احتجاجات واسعة أمام المكتبة البريطانية في لندن، تزامنًا مع استضافتها عرضًا موسيقيًا. وعبّر المحتجّون عن رفضهم القاطع لمحاولات استخدام الفن غطاءً للتطبيع وتمرير السرديات المضلّلة، في ظلّ حرب الإبادة المستمرّة.

Andy Burnham has chosen Boston Consulting Group - the multibillion-pound consultancy involved in modelling plans to ethnically cleanse 500,000 Palestinians from Gaza as part of Trump’s so-called ‘Gaza Riviera’, and notorious for corporate restructuring and mass redundancies - to help supposedly end 40 years of neoliberalism.

Yeah… somehow I don’t think that’s going to work.

My previous tweet is approaching 1 million views, and I want to use this reach to make an urgent appeal to the world.

Allow caravans and mobile housing units into Gaza. Open the way for construction materials and reconstruction equipment to enter. Repair the water and sewage networks and rainwater drainage systems.

Enough of the humiliation of human dignity in Gaza. Enough of leaving families and children to live in these degrading conditions. People here are not asking for the impossible. They are asking for shelter that protects them and a life in which their dignity is respected.

Act now, before the rain washes away what little remains of these people's lives.

Israeli actress says she's leaving Israel for good, citing Gaza genocide
——
Israeli actress and director Einat Weizman, a member of the Balad party, announced she will relocate to Athens, Greece, with her partner and two daughters, citing years of professional and personal difficulties over her political views and criticism of Israel.

Balad is a Palestinian-led political party that advocates for Palestinian national rights, equality, and a single secular, democratic state for all its citizens.

Speaking to Haaretz, Weizman said her 'outspoken' positions had exposed her to harassment, cost her professional opportunities and made it increasingly difficult to earn a living. She cited being fired and suspended from teaching institutions, as well as the termination of her representation by the Zohar Yakobson agency following a social media post celebrating Palestinian journalists in Gaza after the 'ceasefire' announcement.

"I can't sit in a cafe and drink wine without being constantly aware that people are being expelled from their homes and going hungry in Gaza," she added.

Weizman also said she could no longer tolerate living in Israel amid the war on Gaza, saying "for the past three years, it has been hard to live here because of the genocide. I simply know too much to be able to lead a normal life in the Tel Aviv bubble."

She concluded by reiterating her rejection of living in Israel, saying: "I can't mentally bear to stay in this place, can't pay taxes here and can't be part of the murderous madness happening here."

Earlier we learned 8 of the 11 Democrats who skipped the vote to impeach Pete Hegseth were at an AIPAC-affiliated event, well now we are learning that Rep. Jackson was on the steps of the Capitol and only had to walk 13 steps to vote, but chose not to!

Just like with the other 11 Traitorous Democrats, Jackson has taken money from AIPAC and it’s becoming clearer by the hour that they “missed” the vote to appease their AIPAC handlers.

The Israeli lobby doesn’t want Pete Hegseth impeached for 2 reasons:

1) It wants Hegseth to keep committing war crimes against Iran.

2) If Hegseth is held accountable it opens up the possibility of more Zionist war criminals being held accountable. They want to preserve the corrupt world we live in now where US/Zionist war criminals murder with impunity.
