"Arabs are inferior to us. That's why we kick Palestinians and slap them. We train dogs so they will bite them strongly and tightly. That's why we shoot them. They're nothing"

One wish for 2025: Palestinian liberation and the end of Israel’s apartheid, occupation and colonisation.

[Talia Jane @taliaotg]

UPDATE: I got footage of the self-immolation at the Israeli embassy in DC.

The individual, wearing fatigues, introduces himself as “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide.”

After ignition, he repeatedly yells “Free Palestine.”

[Matt Lieb?? @mattlieb]

He’s pointing a gun at a man fully engulfed in flames.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

People will try to smear Aaron Bushnell in the coming days as mentally ill. He didn’t sacrifice his life because he was mentally ill. He did it because he was morally outraged. We all should be.

The best things in life are free because the best things are not things

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

The irony is that I can't find a single verified photo of an "Israeli baby beheaded by Hamas", whereas there are so many photos of Palestinian babies and children killed by Israel I can't even count them.

Israel is lying, and lying again, to try and justify its massacre of Gaza

[Abby Martin @AbbyMartin]

I keep thinking how crazy it would be if an Arab country kept 2.3 million Jewish people in a cage, half children, cut off their electricity & water then indiscriminately bombed them. Beyond comprehension the anti-Muslim bigotry that makes the world applaud this as justified

Intoxicants wear off but arrogance doesn't

The disease of delusion is to not recognize where your blessings came from

[Omar Ahmed @OmarsTweets]

When a person sins and doesn't repent, doing the wrong thing becomes easier and doing the right thing becomes more difficult.

[Omar Ahmed @OmarsTweets]

Mistakes are just opportunities for us to learn and do better in the future

[I E McElroy MD, MPH: @iemcelroymd.bsky.social @IEMcElroy]

I am mentally ill and yet I have never had the desire to target an entire group of people and massacre them.

Racism is not a mental illness. It is a choice of hatred and violence.

Do not further demonize and stigmatize mental health in order to avoid the dealing with racists.

"Visibility these days seems to somehow equate to success. Do not be afraid to disappear -from it, from us- for a while and see what comes to you in the silence" - @MichaelaCoel

All our silences in the face of racist assault are acts of complicity.

[Omar Ahmed @OmarsTweets]

Repentance is not supposed to be comfortable, but it will be comforting

[Omar Ahmed @OmarsTweets]

Reminder to myself: The worst part of sinning is knowing that you sinned in front of God & that nothing is truly hidden; every limb and body part will testify about our sins.

[Omar Ahmed @OmarsTweets]

We should be easier on others than we are on ourselves
