I’m in Zuweidin now. The settler who shot two people last week, Shimon Attiya, has been circling towns in Masafer Yatta all day. One of his men is here now, staring us down while he lets his sheep graze on Palestinians’ olive trees.
Peace? What peace?
American officials—Trump, Witcoff, Kushner, Rubio, and company—invoke “peace” in every speech. Peace is not a pause; not rule by proxy; not an open-air prison. It is not genocide deferred, only to be reignited; nor Gaza under occupation with “international forces” holding the keys. They mean their peace, not ours; their security, not ours; their prosperity, never ours.
Peace comes only when Palestinians are free and sovereign, when justice is secured and self-determination is real, and when their rights—including the right of return—are restored.
Anything less is domination rebranded—racism in disguise, neo-colonialism sold as peace.
سلام؟ أيُّ سلام؟
يردِّد المسؤولون الأميركيون—ترامب وويتكوف وكوشنر وروبيو ومن معهم—شعار «السلام» في كل خطاب.
ليس السلام هدنة، ولا حكمًا بالوكالة، ولا سجنًا في العراء. ليس السلام إبادةً مُؤجَّلة يُعاد تأجيجها، ولا غزّةَ تحت الاحتلال ليمسك بمفاتيحها قوّاتٌ دوليّة. هم يتكلمون عن سلامهم لا سلامنا، أمنهم لا أمننا، رفاهيتهم لا رفاهيتنا.
السلام لا يأتي إلّا حين يكون الفلسطينيون أحرارًا ذوي سيادة، حين تُصان العدالة، ويصبح تقريرُ المصير ممارسة، وحين يستعيد الفلسطينيون حقوقهم—وفي مقدّمتها حقّ العودة.
ما دون ذلك هو هيمنةٌ يُعادٌ تغليفُها؛ هو عنصريّةٌ مُقنَّعة؛ استعمارٌ جديدٌ يُباع على أنّه سلام.
At some point in the 1970s the British Government approved the import of non native signal crayfish. At what point are the government going to compensate for the damage these creatures have done. Riparian owners are picking up the bill running into billions. @DefraGovUK
I'm surprised this astounding story isn't getting more interest.
It was the 'Hamas tunnels' narrative that was the sole justification Israel gave for bombing hospitals.
Turns out it was just another stupid Israeli lie our corrupt media didn't trouble themselves to fact-check.
I strongly suggest creating backup files of the images of the Palestinian holocaust because there will be and is already a concerted effort to erase these images and videos from the internet.
🚨The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s so-called “aid center” near the Netzarim Corridor has been dismantled, revealing evidence of what Palestinians identified as a death trap. The site, which was supposedly there to serve over 300,000 people, contained remnants of live bullets, sound grenades, and explosive fragments used by the Israeli occupation forces and American mercenaries against civilians seeking food and aid.
According to initial medical reports, more than 2,600 Palestinians were killed and over 19,000 wounded near these aid centers. The foundation has now handed over responsibility for aid delivery in the first phase of the ceasefire deal to the United Nations and the Red Cross following mounting international criticism over the deadly conditions surrounding these operations.

This morning, Israeli occupation forces prevented Palestinian farmers from harvesting their olives in the village of Idhna, west of Hebron.
Each year during the olive harvest season, Palestinian farmers face intensified attacks by Israeli army and settlers across the occupied West Bank.
These assaults often include physical violence, theft of crops, destruction of olive trees, and denial of access to farmland.
The Director-General of Hospitals in Gaza told Al Jazeera that they have requested the entry of medical delegations into the Strip, but Israel continues to obstruct their arrival.
⚡️🇮🇱BREAKING:
Israeli Minister of defense Katz is preparing the ground for renewed military action, marketed as a “demilitarization” and “tunnel destruction” campaign.
He wants to restart the ‘war’ following the release of Israeli captives.

Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?
