While Israel literally & figuratively (actively) shreds the UN Charter & violates its obligations as a member in every way, the latest being the banning of UNRWA, what is it that prevents the UN from revoking Israel’s membership?
This rogue state has repeatedly defied & defiled all norms of decency, legality & morality with full impunity so far. Accountability is long overdue.
You’d think that there are better ways of spending American taxpayers’ money to improve their lives rather than exporting death & devastation at the hands of genocidal Israel.

The horrors unfolding in northern Gaza are the result of a completely unrestrained Netanyahu gov, fully armed by the Biden admin while food aid is blocked and patients are bombed in hospitals.
This is a genocide of Palestinians. The US must stop enabling it. Arms embargo now.
Dear world,
Important note.. I am appealing to you.. Please, REPOST and speak about #Jabalia for the sake of the children’s souls!
Brothers and sisters in #Jabalia are being exterminated silently!

We are less than 19 minutes by car from this place, but we do not know how things are going on. No one can enter or leave the whole area!
@MiaMBloom@DrAyeshaRay Pontificating on issues they know little about? How condescending. Noah is from South Africa. He might understand apartheid better than most and Coates is a black man born in America.
Loath to generalize as I am, I should probably explain that in a previous lifetime of covering an urban police department in detail, I knew a plurality of officers who were honest and committed to police work that actually mattered. I also knew a second tier who did not give a fuck save for their overtime check. And I knew some meaningful number who were purposefully brutal, and some who proved themselves openly corrupt. It took all kinds, as real life often does.
But watching the Adams administration implode in New York these past weeks, I'm now ready to go with a crude, blanketing theory of basic civics: If someone serves in a major urban police department and achieves any rank higher than lieutenant -- and following this, they exhibit ambitions of high elective office -- we need to vote said officer into electoral oblivion.
Argue amongst yourselves. I just know the kind of cop who would see himself successfully making that transition, and, well, no.
I want to throw myself out of a window when I read old reporter's memoirs from WWII because they're like "I was a high school dropout in rural Mississippi when I walked into my local newspaper and they asked 'How'd ya like to go to Paris, kid?' And so began my 80-year career."
What @POTUS did last Sunday was humanly magnificent and morally extraordinary. And it was also spectacularly strategic. Years from now historians will be searching for words to describe the Biden benediction.
An unspoken secret in Congress is that much of the reflexive, blind, unconditional vote support for nearly any Israeli gov action isn’t from actual agreement.
It’s from fear.
Reps are terrified of this ⬇️. Of AIPAC. So they don’t vote their conscience. They vote their fear.
