The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Israeli newspaper Haaretz interviewed IDF soldiers who ADMITTED they were given orders to shoot unarmed Palestinians who were trying to collect food at GHF distribution sites.
Read that again.
And just a week later after this, Son announces he’s leaving Spurs.
I’m not saying he was kicked out because of it, but it’s no coincidence that he launched this campaign for Palestine recently.
Respect to him, honestly. Top player and an even better person.
insane that israel can claim whatever it wants with no evidence and the world accepts it as fact until it gets debunked months later, meanwhile palestinians livestream a genocide in front of our faces and after two years we debate its merit
if you're wondering why 'the dam has broken' on Gaza, it's simple. Israel carried out their final solution. It's done. Every town has been flattened, everyone still alive is experiencing a level of famine they can't come back from. Criticizing it now is too late. That's why.
A tipping point has been reached.
Gaza is now starving to death in front of the whole world.
Those who facilitated and justified this abomination were given ample warning for 21 months.
You have no excuses, and nowhere to hide: you will be held to account for what you've done.
Sitting by the beach yesterday to escape the devastation for a moment - Malak was assassinated with a drone.
She joins hundreds of other athletes murdered by Israel.
No FIFA ban, no Olympic ban, nothing.
Israel acts with total impunity in every area.
Remember the outrage over Bob Vylan’s words? Manufactured fury. Meanwhile, here’s actual genocidal language and open celebration of mass murder, but zero media coverage, zero outrage. This is how the media picks your enemies for you.
“The BBC should hang its head in shame,” says football legend Gary Lineker after watching ‘Gaza: Doctors Under Attack’, the urgent and vital documentary the BBC refused to air.

Sickened by the faux outrage in the UK over a rapper's anti-IDF chants. Where is the outrage over the IDF's meticulously documented mountain of war crimes? Where is the outrage against Keir Starmer's complicity in them?
Pearl clutching and outrage at Glastonbury performers.
Silence over this barbarism.
This is where we are.
We have the receipts.
There will be a reckoning.
Louis Theroux’s “The Settlers” is deeply disturbing television. The horror - the daily horror - of what happens in the West Bank gets far too little mainstream coverage. It’s great to see someone with Theroux’s profile expose a new audience to this reality. Watch it, share it.
⚡️BREAKING:
Israel admits to detaining minors and women who were not involved in fighting. Israel has thousands of Palestinian hostages in ‘prison’, they were kidnapped from Gaza since October 8th 2023.
