@TAmTrib @commie_trucker It's a reference to Nazi Germany. Do you want USA turned into the Third Reich?

[The IMEU @theIMEU]

The head of the Israeli government’s education committee says he will shut down a school for Palestinian orphans in Jerusalem, filming a video for social media where he smashed the school’s signs.

@MartiniMinute @disclosetv Hillary Clinton led the way for Trump.

@SenJeffMerkley The ICJ confirms settlements violate international law. Systematic displacement in the South Hebron Hills functions like a forced eviction. US funding supports these actions while 38 communities vanish.

[Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley]

Israeli settlers harassed and detained a sitting U.S. congressman.  

Imagine the threats, violence, and harassment Palestinians face every day. It’s absolutely unacceptable.

💢 REPORT | Since agreeing to a ceasefire last October, Israeli forces have carried out 1,546 airstrikes and shelling attacks, 1,359 live-fire attacks, 145 military incursions, and 387 explosive home demolitions across Gaza.

Two Palestinian men were killed and 12 others wounded by Israeli forces on Wednesday, according to a report shared by the Palestinian side with mediators and obtained by Drop Site News. Wednesday also saw 13 new violations recorded across the Strip:

🔹 Explosive demolition of buildings northeast of Khan Younis
🔹 Artillery shelling northeast of Al-Bureij refugee camp
🔹 Israeli forces opened fire on displacement tents in Al-Mawasi, Rafah
🔹 Israeli military incursion east of Al-Qarara in Khan Younis with intensive gunfire
🔹 Artillery shelling east of Khan Younis
🔹 Intensive live fire south of Khan Younis
🔹 Mohammad Naeem Jundiya killed in an Israeli strike near Gaza City’s Municipal Park
🔹 Israeli military incursion east of Al-Bureij near the Yellow Line
🔹 Artillery shelling targeting Sheikh Nasser area east of Khan Younis
🔹 One civilian killed and several others wounded in a strike on Al-Shanti Land in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood
🔹 Artillery shelling east of Khan Younis
🔹 Artillery shelling targeting Al-Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza City
🔹 Explosive demolition north of Rafah city

◽️Death Toll:
Since the ceasefire took effect, Israel has killed 1,059 Palestinians, including 247 children, 114 women, and 32 elderly people, and wounded 3,429, including 953 children, 610 women, and 146 elderly people. Children, women, and the elderly account for 37.1% of those killed and 49.8% of those wounded. 119 civilians have also been detained.

◽️Expanding Occupation:
Israel continues to hold approximately 34 square kilometers beyond the agreed withdrawal lines while obstructing repairs to electricity, water, and sewage infrastructure and blocking the entry of heavy machinery needed for reconstruction.

◽️Aid Entry:
▪️ Only 35.7% of agreed humanitarian assistance has entered Gaza, averaging 214 trucks per day compared with the agreed 600
▪️ Fuel deliveries remain at just 15% of agreed levels, according to the report

◽️Rafah Crossing:
▪️ 8,174 passengers have crossed out of 22,400 scheduled travelers, a compliance rate of 36.4%
▪️ 88 people have been turned back at the crossing
▪️6-10 medical patients die each day awaiting evacuation per Ministry of Health:
🔹264 children have died
🔹505 oncology patients have died
▪️ The crossing once again remained closed Wednesday, with no travelers or returnees permitted to cross

[Genocide Archive @Archivepaletc]

To reduce the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza, and disguise this as compliance with the agreed-upon 600 truckloads per day, Israel has limited truck entry to five days a week and reduced the number of pallets per truck from 20 to 12.

@WhiteHouse @RNCResearch OK, so reverse Citizens United and get PAC money out of elections.

@KevinlyFather @Acyn Yep. Orgs routinely buy voter rolls from state Sec of States offices.

@kalenooc2 @SaladinAlDronni People like snuggling.

[Hammam Farah @HumHum83]

I searched a Gaza war crimes archive for my family.

I quickly realized I wasn’t using it the way most people would. I wasn’t browsing it as an activist, researcher or journalist.

I was looking for my family.

My heart sank as I filtered the archive by the dates we lost them and searched for someone I loved.

I found footage I hadn’t seen before of the bombing of the Church of St. Porphyrius, where my cousin Soliman was killed.

I searched for the day my great aunt Elham was murdered, and the day Nahida and Samar Anton were killed by Israeli snipers at the Holy Family Catholic Church.

Eyewitnesses told us Elham was crushed by an Israeli tank. I have graphic photographs of her body that were sent to me by church workers in Gaza, but I found no footage of what happened.

It made me wonder how many people died without leaving behind any visual record.

The realization stayed with me.

Here was a digital graveyard where pieces of my own family history are preserved for journalists, historians, truth seekers and, undoubtedly, those seeking to exploit or consume human suffering.

I know I won’t be the only person to experience this. Other Palestinians searching for loved ones almost certainly will too. But it struck me that this is a form of grief that could scarcely have existed before our time.

It’s a form of grief I never imagined could exist.

[Motasem A Dalloul @AbujomaaGaza]

MoH: Israeli occupation forces have killed 7 displaced persons in the Gaza City since the morning..

[Basheer From Gaza 🍉 @BasheerMasry]

The bombing hasn't stopped for a moment since last night 💔 Our neighbor in the area was killed in this brutal bombing 💔
This is extremely difficult 🥺😭

[Meredith Hobbs @MeredithHobbs]

@ABC WTF? As the Pentagon conditions Americans to living in a warzone, why not drop some bombs to add to the verisimilitude?

[Based Millennial Mommy 🇺🇸 @MaRy_JaNe1209]

You do realize that when Israel merges with our military, they will target US citizens with the help of our government & military, right?

[Mosab Abu Toha @MosabAbuToha]

A woman and a child were injured in Israel’s latest terror strike in Gaza City.
