The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
¿Cuánto hemos deshumanizado a Gaza en el último año para que el asesinato de 14 personas, incluyendo niños y madres y 18 personas heridas, ya no sea relevante para los medios de comunicación?
Here is Netanyahu saying from the river to the sea. I guarantee you American media will never report on it. They said it was genocidal when Palestinians said it, even though Palestinian version is about freedom. Netanyahu version is about erasing Palestine - actually genocidal.
“With these bullets fired by the occupation army from behind the yellow line for amusement, dozens have been killed and injured inside their tents:
The child Ahmed was killed while having breakfast with his parents blood burst from his head and mouth.
Fatima was killed while breastfeeding her baby.
Hala was killed while writing her school lessons.
And many others.”
ALARM!
How on earth is possible that Israel is allowed to assault and seize vessels in international waters just off Greece/Europe? Besides what you can think of Apartheid Israel and its genocidal leaders, this should send shock waves across Europe.
Apartheid without borders.
Il ne manque plus que 200 000 signatures pour contraindre la Commission européenne à agir sur la suspension de l’accord d’association UE-Israël qui fait de l’Union européenne le premier partenaire commercial de l’Etat génocidaire.

On this day in 1835, one of Europe’s worst monsters, King Leopold II of Belgium🇧🇪, was born.
During his rule, he declared Congo as his personal colonial possession and proceeded to commit horrific genocide upon the Congolese people.
8-10 million Congolese died during ‘personal rule’, with violence as a mechanism of organising production. Through mercenaries, prisons, forced starvation, and executions, Leopold II turned Congo into a concentration camp, using Congolese as the labour to extract vast profits from the rubber quotas imposed on the population.
The profits were used to build Belgium’s grand buildings and landmarks, while Congolese were exterminated systematically through forced labour, mass killings, and famine.
While the metropole of Belgium’s empire flourished, while Congo became an extraction machine. Workers who failed to meet the quotas were mutilated, having their hands cut off. These workers included children.
Villages were punished collectively. Women were held hostage until men delivered rubber. Failure meant mutilation, flogging, or execution. Terror was the incentive structure. Pain replaced wages.
The Congolese people never saw the profits, only the oppression of being used as slave labour. Belgium has still not offered a formal apology to the Congolese people for the genocidal atrocities committed against them…
Because doing so would acknowledge a fundamental truth; that European capitalism was not born from ‘innovation’, ‘free trade’, or ‘liberal values’, but through barbaric destruction of global south nations and the looting of their resources for profit.
BREAKING! Amid widespread bombing across Arab regions, Israel approves its largest-ever colonial expansion. Under the "fog of war'', what I warned on 14 Oct 2023 is unfolding: the largest ethnic cleansing/land grab in Palestine, since the Nakba. It’s happening. Under our watch.
El mundo no se detuvo ni reaccionó ante el apartheid en Palestina ni ante los crímenes en Irak en 2003 y años posteriores.
Ni ante las torturas en Irak y Afganistán. Ni ante el centro de secuestro de Guantánamo. Ni ante el genocidio en Gaza.
Ni ante la matanza de más de 100 niñas en Irán.
No hubo presión ni suspensión de alianzas ni los grandes aliados de Washington cumplieron las obligaciones que dicta el derecho internacional ante esos crímenes y su prevención.
Todavía hoy los representantes de la UE exigen a Irán y evitan señalar a EEUU e Israel.
Ben Gvir, ministro de seguridad de Israel:
"Yo fui quién les quité a los palestinos todos sus derechos en prisión, les quité los comedores y la comida, las visitas, las salidas al patio, el derecho a estudiar y ahora quiero quitarles también sus vidas".
"Régimen de los Ayatolás"
"sur del río Litani (Líbano), unos territorios en disputa"
"un soldado israelí, víctima de los terroristas en Líbano"
