@APinkFlame @paolomossetti She earned her right to speak and calling for respect for human rights is never inappropriate.

[Paolo Mossetti @paolomossetti]

Leen Hijaz, valedictorian at her high school in North Carolina, said the following in her graduation speech:

"Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard. Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak. My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent."

Corey Robin, a political theorist at Brooklyn College, writes: "The mere mention of Palestine—maybe ICE, too—sent the high school principal, Melissa Moore, hurtling across the stage to seize the microphone from Hijaz, and stop her from saying these unapproved words.

Just look at this photograph: A young Muslim woman, speaking out, and a desperate, terrified principal trying to shut her down, lest the student say something unauthorized, disapproved, discordant with the views of an increasingly small clique of government officials and voters.

It's so pathetic. It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union. I can only hope Hijaz speaks for a generation that will, one day, sweep all this garbage into the dustbin of history".

the reason why Palestine isn’t being seen anymore because there’s barely any journalists left. 20% of Lebanon is now under Israeli occupation. 12 million people have been displaced in Sudan. Over 25 million people are facing acute hunger in Congo. Don’t stop talking.

🔴After a morning of continuous bombings and drone strikes, the Israeli army has issued forced displacement orders for three towns. Forced displacement is a war crime.

Summary of Israeli enemy attacks since midnight:

Airstrikes:
Deir Qanoun Ras al-Ain
Tibnin
Siddiqin
Bazouriyeh
Blat
Arab Salim
Kfar Tebnit
Deir al-Zahrani

Drone strikes:
Al-Housh
Arab Salim
Arzoun
Qana
Deir al-Zahrani
Siddiqin
Bazouriyeh
Srifa
Harouf

Artillery shelling:
Haris
Blat
Dibbine

In Arab Selim, the Israeli army executed another paramedic. Attacking first responders is a war crime.

@ChavaProduction @DanielBShapiro He puts his Zionist lebensraum ambitions ahead of even Jewish lives, but you're right that many Israeli officials are supremacist monsters at heart, no less extreme that Smotrich, but generally with more tact.

[Butlerian Jihad🍉 @Baudib1]

This terrorist Smotrich is literally a national hero to Israelis, you can’t pretend he’s not mainstream.

The US destroyed Gandhi Hospital in Tehran, the top IVF Hospital in Iran. The Political Class + Mainstream Media in Europe couldn't even condemn it...

🇦🇪🏀 The UAE: Sponsors of the NBA, the Knicks, and a mass-murdering militia in Sudan

As the NBA Finals tip off, Sudan’s former Foreign Minister Omer Ismail is calling on the league to end its landmark sponsorship deal with the UAE in a new Zeteo op-ed. The NBA’s partnership with the Gulf monarchy is reportedly worth up to $500 million in advertising and promotional value, while the Knicks wear Experience Abu Dhabi on their jerseys under a separate $30 million sponsorship deal.

The Rapid Support Forces, armed and backed by the UAE, have committed genocide, mass rape, ethnic cleansing, and some of the worst race-based atrocities of the 21st century in Sudan.

SXSW and any other conference that has to deal with the UK’s censorship regime to bring in speakers should go to Dublin or Madrid or Lisbon or anywhere but London

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Just kind of left speechless at an invading army whining to the United Nations that the people they are invading — and killing their civilians by the thousands — are fighting back. This is a mystifying level of lack of self awareness

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

Israeli soldiers say they are "an army of Vikings" looting stores, stealing cars and even entire warehouses in Southern Lebanon

"There was also an unofficial mission: to take out the loot, to unload the spoils at the outpost where the headquarters was, so it would be waiting for the soldiers when they went home"

It’s all talk. Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors - instant peace, the Strait of Hormuz can be opened, and gas drops $2 a gallon. Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.

[Voice of Rabbis @voiceofrabbis]

A 14-year-old boy was killed in a horrific bus accident while protesting against Israel’s forced conscription law. He was struck and dragged to his death.

As expected, Zionists mocked him, some saying he deserved it.

At the boy's funeral, his father said: “I would rather my son die like this than join Israel’s army.”

Better to die like a Jew than to live like a Zionist.

Hamawy has won — meaning a doctor who treated the victims of the U.S.-Israeli genocide in Gaza is headed to Congress.

He refused to leave his rotation, even as Israel surrounded the hospital and cut off the water supply, until a new rotation of doctors was allowed in

Congratulations to Israel for outdoing the Nazis, who didn't even bomb historical sites like the palace of Versailles

TODAY— Photos were smuggled out of Ecuador’s prisons and published by the brave Karol Noroña. Under the current U.S.-backed military dictatorship, inmates are starved and 1 dies every 7 hours— an alarming rate for the 2nd smallest nation in South America. NOBOA IS A MURDERER.

Drop Site News was scheduled to host a panel discussion at SXSW London on June 3. We have informed the organizers we will not be moving forward with the event following SXSW’s refusal to condemn the British Home Office’s state censorship of our colleagues Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur, who were also scheduled to speak at SXSW. The banning of our colleagues is part of an intensifying campaign by the UK government to stifle criticism of Israel and criminalize pro-Palestine activism at a time when the genocide in Gaza is continuing.
