This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.
The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.
Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.
To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.
The man charged with possession of a knife at the Southport riots has been named by police as Jordan Davies.
For the racist thickos, that means NOT Muslim.
If you're doing Nazi salutes outside Downing Street you have no right to claim you are patriots, or that you are speaking for Britain. I can think of little that is, in fact, more *anti-British* than the fucking Nazis. We literally fought a world war against that shit.
Absolutely disgraceful customer service from @etihad. I paid for extra legroom seats at a cost of £63.80 per flight for 3 people (total cost £382.80) and they put us in normal Economy seats. Person on the helpline saying that I am not eligible for a refund. WTF???
