Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write.

I need your help! I'm travelling to Ottawa on June 10 to tell our Parkdale—High Park MP, Karim Bardeesy, that his constituents say "NO!" to the airport expansion!

Can you sign my petition? I'll be bringing printed copies to Parliament Hill!

“I fucked your sister. Nice pussy.” Wholesome family fun always at the annual @UJAFederation Walk With Israel in #Toronto. We are supposed to believe these people feel threatened, as they go around yelling such depravities in front of their own children.

I keep thinking about this photo taken yesterday.

Prime Minister of Canada, @MarkJCarney, stands in front of an Israeli flag speaking about how hate against any group of peoples is wrong. While, the International Court of Justice has ruled that Israel is committing the crime of apartheid and illegal occupation in the West Bank and genocide in Gaza against Palestinians. This is hate and discrimination translated into systematic legal injustice and mass death and slaughter.

There is an obligation for Canada as a third party state to not be complicit in Israel’s crimes against humanity and violations of international law.

Standing in front of a flag of a state committing apartheid and genocide, while still sending weapons to Israel to commit these crimes, should demonstrate to all humanity and peace loving people in Canada to seriously question our politicians and confront this current reality for what it truly is.

Canada is deeply committed and embedded in the structural oppression against Palestinians, entrenching the systematic colonial rule of Western settler colonial states in a world where the rich and powerful can choose to continue to break all the international laws and obligations because they know consequences are beneath them.

I know so many good and decent people who refuse such a world and reality where impunity is enjoyed by the war criminals. Rather we fight for a world where human rights for all is defended without exception. Where our obligations to international law and the global community actually means something.

I am a single issue voter anymore. If you support Israel in literally any way shape or form I will not vote for you. I do not care about literally anything else anymore. How can anyone see this and ignore it.

The @fordnation government has already made its deal with Nieuport Aviation/JP Morgan and sold our precious waterfront, Toronto Islands and beaches to an American Bank. Will @MarkJCarney allow an American Bank to destroy our waterfront for profit? Will the 23 liberal MPs stop it?

One of the most detailed testimonies I've heard of the Israeli torture and systematic sexual abuse of Gaza Sumud Flotilla activists abducted in international waters while attempting to bring aid to Gaza

[Diana Chan McNally @DianaCMcNally]

The federal government can still stop amendments to the tripartite agreement governing Billy Bishop Airport — meaning, they have the power to stop the expansion, full stop. Let them know you say NO to destroying our waterfront!

After tireless struggle by victims and finally a 1-hour TV documentary this week, settlements south of Jerusalem admit their leaders have long created child pornography by filming when they gang-rape kids in the community: "No longer in denial: Gush Etzion admits to ritual abuse"

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

They put zip ties on babies before killing them. How is anyone with a conscience supposed to process this horror?
