Thanks @Such_Mayer for this list of books by authors who withdrew from @PENamerica awards in support of Gaza.

It’s a powerful action to withdraw work from a highly visible org & it’s a lot of $ to give up. Support author action by buying their books 💙

There are only six operating ambulances in Gaza, for a population of over 2 million people.

Maurice Blinken, the grandfather of US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, was a fervent Zionist lobbyist.

The New York Times credits his work with "helping persuade the United States government to support the establishment of the State of Israel."

This guy was going to the hospital when an Israeli sniper shot him in the chest.
The doctors are unable to remove the bullet because it’s in a very sensitive area near his heart.

🚨Update: I now have the identities of the two women who falsely made a bomb threat claim against my brother, and one of them is a cop.

The daughter, who initially made the false bomb threat, is a local police officer in the city of Blaine, MN named Hailey Larson.

The mother is named Jenny Luft Larson.

I don't know what to be more upset about: the false bomb claim that a police officer made by racially profiling my brother and our cousins are hearing them speak Arabic and taking turns to use the bathroom or the fact that the airport police knew she was a police officer and gaslit my family into just going home and refusing to allow my brother to file a counter police report against Hailey Larson.

Airport police refused to give my brother their names and told them to just go home bc "there's nothing to file here" basically covering for her because she's a cop.

I'm pretty sure if someone makes a false bomb threat claim, there are serious legal repercussions.

Haley Larson is a public servant, her job is funded by our taxpayer money and she engaged in racism, racial profiling and treated my family as suspect because they are Muslim and Palestinian- American.

This is classic post 911 islamophobia all over again.

An Israeli air strike targeted a house in front of Al-Aqsa hospital in the middle area in Dair Al-Balah. A number of people were killed and injured. Very horrifying scenes

My friend Fouad who was killed today was the one who took this picture of me. When will this stop?

[Tiberius @tiberiusfiles]

This is huge.

The **ICC** have now set up a portal for any submission of evidence of Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Anyone can upload, including videos and images. Please share far and wide!

Day 96, I’m at the hospital and injuries are arriving to the hospital on horses because people are getting shot and injured in areas where the ambulances can’t go because the army is there.

RT @gazanotice: The Israeli occupation army killed 15 Palestinians in Rafah tonight. 6 of them are children and 2 are women. https://t.co/3…
