Even @Morning_Joe has had it with the false claims of antisemitism: "If you want to blame anybody for what happened last night, you have to blame Benjamin Netanyahu."
"The idea that you're going to be able to brutalize children and women in Gaza with bombing that looks indiscriminate on TV day in and day out for years, that you're going to be able to level half of Lebanon, that you're going to be able to continue to allow thugs to run wild in the West Bank, and brutalizing Palestinians, brutalizing Christians in Bethlehem, brutalizing Christians across that area along with Palestinian Muslims, especially Palestinian Muslims, blowing up Catholic churches in Gaza... You can blame all of this on Benjamin Netanyahu."

Hani Almadhoun on the Gaza ceasefire: âI think this is the first time that you and I talk and I feel I want to wake up in a new day. I feel like there is no longer a dark cloud over my heart.â
All social media influencers being paid by the Israeli government or ANY foreign government to promote a foreign country and a foreign countryâs interests, must register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) under the DOJ.
âForeign governments routinely engage in efforts
to influence our domestic and foreign policies,
legislation, democratic processes, and public
opinion. These governments sometimes exert this
influence by employing lobbyists, public relations
professionals, prominent businesspeople, or
former U.S. government officials on their behalf.
Such efforts are legalâif they are transparent.
Originally enacted in 1938, the Foreign Agents
Registration Actâknown as FARAâhelps the American people and their elected officials
understand who is really behind such influence
activity. The statute requires persons working on
behalf of foreign governments or other foreign
principals (including Americans) to disclose their
relationships to foreign principals and information
about their activities.
Agents who fail to register are violating federal
law, and they can be prosecuted if their failure
is deliberate.â
Saying this is not antisemitic or hateful to any people group or foreign country.
Itâs the law.
US Amb Mike Huckabee announced plans to scale up aid sites in #Gaza Wednesday.
âExpanding the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation from four to 16 sites doesnât mean more relief,â Hani Almadhoun said. âThe first four became mass graves.â

My new poem in the yet new phase of genocide
Your Tweet Says It All
In three days itâll be 666 revolutions
around itself since the earth
has spun my annihilation.
I acknowledge the land
youâre standing on.
Hani Almadhoun, senior director of philanthropy for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), talks about the humanitarian situation in Gaza and says âmuch of the conditions imposed by the Israeli military makes it hard to deliver aid.â
Inbox: Jake Wood resigns from âGaza Humanitarian Foundation.â
ââŠit is clear that it is not possible to implement this plan while also strictly adhering to the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence, which I will not abandon.â
7/ In response, Gazaâs major families are speaking out. The Madhoun family released a formal statement denouncing the looting and calling it part of a broader destabilization strategy. They also called for the formation of a national leadership consisting of heads of municipalities, national institution and popular committees to put an end to these attacks. They warned: âThese gangs act in alignment with the goals of the occupation.â
@PENamerica invited me to their World Festival without mentioning Palestine, Gaza, or genocide; but the letter quotes S. Rushdie, listening, and international borders.
Are you next on the list?
Mahmoud Al Madhoun was killed last month in an Israeli drone strike.
He was much loved both online and on the ground in northern Gaza for his work providing food to desperate families.
