@LindaFrum@UNWatch That’s hilarious! UN Watch is a pro-Israel advocacy operation dressed up as an impartial human-rights watchdog, using the language of universal rights to attack the UN when its findings clash with its political agenda. As a former UN human rights expert, I find them despicable.
@terrynewman@cbcwatcher That’s what happens when people are sickened by years of watching tens of thousands of children slaughtered in total impunity. They take matters into their own hands and target warehouses supporting the killing machine. Human lives matter more than equipment.
#Palestine: For 10 days, Palestinians in Hebron, #WestBank have faced military raids, forced evictions and severe movement restrictions, making it harder for people to reach care.
The lockdown also forced our teams to suspend care. https://t.co/o4YcLUMn8e
I hope you are all sleeping safely in your homes, surrounded by your families. I hope every child has warm clothes and every parent can provide the care their children need.
I hope your children have umbrellas, raincoats, and rain boots for school. I hope your cities are prepared to respond to winter emergencies.
Of course, sharing this news will change nothing for our families in Gaza, just as the warnings issued days ago changed nothing.
Tonight, at 8:30 p.m., as families slept on the ground inside their tents, a massive landslide of soil and rocks buried at least two families in Deir al-Balah.
The victims have been identified as:
Habiba Hossam al-Zain, 4 years old
Reem Hossam al-Zain
Ibrahim Hossam al-Zain
Salah Nabhan, 7 years old
Mariam Nabhan
The mothers of these five children remain in critical condition.
The father of the first three children had already been killed by Israel.
I hope everyone has heat in their homes.
@afalkhatib “The Nazis built railways to deport Jews—so why couldn’t Jews trapped in ghettos build drainage?” The cruelty of that logic: it blames people living under imposed conditions for failing to overcome them, while erasing who imposed those conditions and controlled their options.
@AnitaAnandMP Meanwhile — in full violation of the 2024 ICJ ruling — Canada continues to sell weapons and maintain economic and diplomatic ties with genocidal Israel while it commits the worst atrocities of our time. This is complicity.
