Amid a conflict of unconscionable viciousness, the IDF’s efforts to continuously disrupt and disable the Gazan health system stand out for their indiscriminate brutality. 💔
“The desire to take revenge for Hamas' attack on October 7, 2023 has turned into brutal, unbridled warfare that constitutes a gross violation of the laws of war and, even worse, will be remembered as a moral stain on the country”. Haaretz.

“There is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes." (Brigadier General Cohen, IDF)
Ethnic cleansing, live-streamed on social media. Don’t ever, ever claim you didn’t know it was happening.
This is wild. After a year+ of killing and destruction in Gaza, Gallant effectively concedes that it has achieved no significant strategic or political outcomes. It’s just been violence for violence sake. As I’ve long said, little more than a brutal, punitive, medieval raid.
‘Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children.’
Read that again. And think about it for a few moments. And if you still support Israel’s campaign against the people of Gaza, you are a sociopath.
“Last week Brig Gen Itzik Cohen quietly admitted what the international community has long been reluctant to acknowledge: that Israel is carrying out ethnic cleansing in northern Gaza...”
Don’t say you didn’t know.

‘The amount of aid reaching Gaza has dropped to the lowest level since December, official Israeli figures show.’ (Guardian).
Yet still the US does nothing, while the UK government sits impotently by, seemingly afraid to upset either the US…or Israel.

UN special committee likens
Israeli policy in Gaza to genocide.
Report also refers to Israel 'using starvation as a weapon of war' and running 'apartheid system' in West Bank.
Don’t ever say you didn’t know.

ICE has 20,000 agents. The only way they'll deport millions of people is with the help of software. If you work for a company that's selling their tools to help ICE do this work, you should leak to reporters what's going on.
@queersocialism What do you think about conservative Republicans? I'm not trying to defend liberal Democrats. I think both parties are shitty. But I don't get why y'all never say anything about conservatives. Instead, you help normalize their fascism. And y'all can be pretty arrogant yourselves
They've just bombed our neighbourhood. People are screaming in extreme pain.
Apache warplanes drifted closely immediately afterwards.
Lots of pain. Apocalyptic scenes. A new massacre.
The place is on fire. All those killed can't be rescued. Warplanes are all over in the sky.
I can't stop shaking. What a very difficult time!
I can't...
Fire flames have covered the place.
"My mum. My mum"
No one can rush the scene. People are being burnt alive and are bleeding till death.
Apache warplanes, helicopters, drones, and quadcopters have encircled the place.

The naval attacks and abruptly intense warplanes hovering in synch with the first call for the dawn prayers all seem wrong.
The Muslim world will be heavily punished for witnessing this and not doing anything. What will they tell Allah in the hereafter?
The entire world is silent. It's totally unbelievable that an entire population of more than 9 billion people can't stop this war.
