Powerful interview, with an uncharacteristically emotional Jeremy Scahill. But how can one not be emotional at this point. Nothing justifies the butchering of children day after day, weeks and months. I am also profoundly disturbed and disgusted by what we have become.
In Gaza, the collective shame of the century continues unabated and unstopped, in defiance of every norm of international law and morale. The Palestinians, exhausted by relentless attacks on their bodies and souls are abandoned to their tormentors. Shocking images of summary executions, mass forced displacements, and other egregious abuses strike us, leaving us stunned and bewildered, unable to comprehend that what is happening in Gaza is truly real. What a disgraceful testament to our global failure to protect basic human rights . The United Nations, once a believed beacon of hope and a force for peace, are crumbling under the weight of this shame - and the pressure of the inaction or complicity of its most powerful member states.
A death march filmed & posted proudly by its perpetrators for all to see the genocide on full display, without a single condemnation from the "civilized world" or even any reporting on this in mainstream media!

Staying silent is not an option.
Passivity is not an option.
Complicity is not an option.
For the sake of humanity, we must see action.
Absolutely chuffed to share a free pdf of the Lost and Early Writings of James Connolly. @iskrabooks have a brilliant publishing model whereby the physical book is for sale but the pdf is freely available for anyone and everyone to use - https://t.co/EYvLESPTZ6

@AishaAriella@una_linda when they rehearse this contract with society is thus not surprising, but inscribed in the agenda of this class of administrators. Just to make it clear—rehearsing this imaginary contract is not shared governance with administrators whose mission is to trap us under the..."
