Disagree all you want but with civility and rational argument. Insults, slurs, personal attacks, or threats say more about the writer than the issue. Those accounts will be blocked, no questions asked. Dissent is welcome. Hostility isn’t.

@RapidResponse47 @SecRubio If you’re truly the world’s greatest at everything, why do you still sound so desperate for validation?

Reporter of China State Television CGTN, broadcasting in front of Gaza Shifa Hospital:

For the first since the Oslo accord, Israel is seizing land for an army base inside an occupied West Bank city. The seizure order, near Jenin refugee camp, is the latest move aimed at expanding the Israeli military and settler presence. https://t.co/qRIQi48Q6z

That particular moment when a British surgeon was giving his testimony to the UK Parliament.

He describes how IDF drones arrive right after airstrikes in Gaza, targeting and shooting the injured, including children,right on the spot.....

Everyone should watch this speech.

"The irony of accepting an award for covering a genocide in the very country that enables that genocide should not be lost."

AJ Faultlines documentary, Kids Under Fire, won "Outstanding War or Violence Conflict Coverage" at the 2026 News #Emmys in New York City yesterday.

Josh Rushing dedicated the award to journalists killed by Israeli forces.

Jonathan once believed that Israel “had no choice but to fight in Gaza”. Today the former IDF soldier is “ashamed” of what he and his platoon did to Palestinians. Register for free to read his story in full https://t.co/1A0EbslBLf

[State of Palestine @Palestine_UN]

"The UN was able to verify 31 cases of rape and sexual violence primarily in detention settings, but also at checkpoints and during military operations against 14 men, seven women, nine boys, and one girl from the Gaza Strip and the WestBank.

This is part of a pattern of sexual violence against Palestinians, including as a form of torture.

Violations consisted of rape, including rape with objects, gang rape, attempted rape, physical violence to the genitals, instances of targeted shooting of the genitals, touching of breast and genitals, strip and cavity searches conducted without apparent security justification, forced nudity, and threats of rape. Rape and gang rape were perpetrated against nine of these victims, with four suffering repeated rape on multiple occasions.

Explicit threats were made by Israeli armed and security forced warning detainees not to report abuse to media or human rights organizations."

Under Israel's war-crime rules in Gaza, all men of military age were deemed to be legitimate targets. “And military age is really open to interpretation. It could be from 16 to 60 or even younger...Most of the people that my unit killed were not armed."

What a speech…. He deserves another award for the speech

This isn’t an apocalyptic film.

This is Tyre, South Lebanon, today.

A 5,000-year-old city.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Israel is wiping it out.

Turning one of humanity’s oldest cities into ash.

This is the destruction of civilization itself — unfolding in real time.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Horrifying report that will of course be instantly attacked, dismissed, belittled and mocked by the same shameless apologists for the Israeli govt who went after @NickKristof following his own shocking and very similar recent report.

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

"What I did in Gaza: an Israeli soldier’s reckoning," as he helps to debunk  the Israeli government’s narrative that atrocities and war crimes were committed by only a few bad apples. “It’s the entire system. It is systematic crimes that we are doing.”

An Al Jazeera investigation has found that military goods from at least 51 countries were sent to Israel, even after the ICJ warned in January 2024 of a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza and ordered states to help prevent it.

“At least 15 cases of sexual assaults, including rape. Shot with rubber bullets at close range. Tens of people’s bones broken,” organizers of the Global SumudFlotilla posted on the Telegram social media app.
“While the world’s eye is trained on the suffering of our participants, we cannot emphasize enough that this is a mere glimpse of the brutality Israel imposes daily on Palestinian hostages.”
