I love how there’s “L🌍VE” and children dancing at the FIFA World Cup Final in the US, while the US bombs children in Iran & Gaza.

[the english simmer @EnglishSimmer]

not this halftime show being “let’s unite and love the world” whilst they’re actively bombing countries who were in the world cup and funding genocides

Palestinian children were prevented from going to school by razor wire and Israeli soldiers — so they sat down and studied right in front of them

[🇱🇧 @lebanesesami]

Today i apologized to my manager for having to take numerous phone calls from Lebanon because of the bombings and she said “omg who’s bombing them?”
This is the reality of living in the US. This is the ignorance of the American people

This is a photo of Mustafa Ali Bani Odeh, an 8 year old Palestinian child, after he witnessed Israeli soldiers kill his mother, his father, and two of his brothers, aged 7 and 5.

This took place in the occupied West Bank, land Israel has no right to patrol.

The NYT account of the shooting is worth sharing:

"Ali Bani Odeh’s wife and four young boys hadn’t seen him in a month and a half when he came home to Tammun, in the West Bank, from his construction job in Israel late on Friday to spend the last few days of Ramadan with his family.

On Saturday night, the boys persuaded him to take them out for a drive. Eid al-Fitr, the end of Ramadan, was coming, so there were new clothes to buy. The day’s fast had been broken, so there were sweets to be had, too.

They picked up fried doughnut holes in Tubas, saving them for later, but the clothing shop they went to in Nablus was closed. It was already past midnight, so they headed back to Tammun: Khaled, 11, the oldest, in the back with Mustafa, 8, and Muhammad, 5. Othman, 6, blind and incapable of walking or feeding himself, was in his mother’s lap in front.

As they rounded a corner slowly, a few minutes from home, young Khaled and Mustafa recounted on Sunday, their mother, Waad, 35, asked her husband to pull over and take Othman from her so she could get something from her bag on the floor. Suddenly, the boys said, they saw laser pointers shining on their family from every direction, heard their mother scream, heard their father say “God is great” — and then heard a deafening fusillade of gunfire."

Why did the soldiers kill this family? They say they "sensed danger".

Imagine the strength it will take for Mustafa to resist turning to violence against the country that killed his parents and his brothers. By killing so many innocent men, women, and children, Israel is ensuring the cycle of violence continues and making everyone, everywhere less safe.

The grief of Mustafa is unimaginable. But his story is not unique. Tends of thousands of children killed. Many more have had their parents, brothers, sisters, family, friends killed by Israeli snipers or Israeli bombs.

We cannot let this continue.

I don’t think anyone will ever be able to fully comprehend the extent of intergenerational trauma that is being created right now as we speak. This will be a stain on the history of humanity forever.

BREAKING:

The US and Israel dropped bombs on an elementary school for girls in Iran’s city of Minab.

36 little girls have been killed so far.

People are still pulling bodies from under the rubble.

Not militants. Not combatants.

Little girls. Students.

This is terrorism.

[manny @mannyfidel]

last week, you were told that you should support a regime change war in Iran in part to support women's rights

this week, one of Israel's "preventative" air strikes in Iran hit a girls' elementary school killing 40 little girls and counting

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.

[Bark @barkmeta]

Americans can’t afford rent. Can’t afford groceries. Can’t afford healthcare. AI is taking every job. The country is literally falling apart.

And their solution? Bomb Iran and start WW3.

Nobody asked for this. Not one person.

[Evie ♡ @EFCevie]

capitalism has ruined people’s outlook on the world and made people think it’s ok to be extremely selfish and greedy when it isn’t.

it’s not normal to think human beings should go without shelter, food, and healthcare if they have no money. it’s so dystopian

[mitra @mitrajoy_]

reminder that our tax dollars fund Israel’s universal healthcare while US citizens suffer and die because we don’t have it

As you condemn the ongoing genocide against Sudan, be sure to name the UAE as a perpetrator. Be sure to boycott the UAE.
