You don't get to shutdown the largest humanitarian agency in the world and pretend nobody died as a result. 500,000 kids killed and accounting from USAID shutdown. https://t.co/cDKhoj5CTl

This gets very little attention in the U.S. but the only thing keeping Netanyahu out of jail is him keeping wars going. Israel won't stop bombing countries (6 in the last 12-months) until he is out of office. #blockthebombs https://t.co/CC6zvCKV0x

Just yesterday the Netanyahu govt adopted a law to hang Palestinians who commit certain crimes in the West Bank but not Israeli settlers who commit the same crimes.

Why are we sending a blank check of billions of $ to a govt that pursues these & other blatantly racist policies?

It's hard to overemphasize this: US-Israeli violence does not keep Americans or Israelis safe. In fact, it's not even meant to.

I wish I could say Ray Takeyh is wrong.

The reconsolidation of power by the regime and its unyielding posture at the negotiating table is all the more reason to take the path of full military confrontation for regime change.

Ever wondered what it would cost to end extreme poverty worldwide? In new work, we use advances in statistical learning to estimate these costs under realistic targeting constraints -- and the answer is much less than many assume.

We are on the brink of a completely preventable hunger catastrophe that threatens widespread starvation in multiple countries.

Failure to act now will only drive further instability, migration and conflict.
