I can't believe what we're seeing. Piles and piles of bodies. Children's bodies, bloodied, distorted and mangled. Butchery of the most sadistic kind.
And our government supports it! Arms it! They call it defence!
People often laugh at leftists when they say that NATO is a vehicle for US imperialism.
Mark Rutte, NATO Secretary General: NATO is a vehicle for US imperialism.
Terrified of what, exactly? Drones raining bombs on their heads? Their babies starving to death? Or maybe they are denied cancer treatment by soulless monsters? Enlighten me, I really want to know.
Journalists at the @nytimes saw a photo of a man being tortured, so naturally they reached out to the people torturing him to get their permission to report on it and give them the first word.
It’s not a “ceasefire” and it’s not “control.”
Israel illegally OCCUPIES 70% of Gaza because they are trying to steal more land and forcibly displace Palestinians in an ongoing genocide. Words matter.
We pulled data from the Bethlehem Municipality to show how Israel is restricting water to our neighborhood. 5 years ago, water was delivered about every 9 days; now it's about every 3 weeks. Families are having to buy water from private suppliers at roughly 10 times the cost.
Is there any reason you didn’t report this story when it first came out?
I was among the first to share the photo on June 30.
Why did it take you 10 days to report on it?
You don’t trust Palestinians, do you? You still run cover for Israel, don’t you?
It’s too very clear you were simply waiting for Israel to confirm the story, come up with a version of it, before you showed up here to present yourselves as an objective news outlet?
🚨As EU Commission puts out options to restrict trade with Israeli settlements, we are today releasing our full proposal to ban such trade.
We show how the EU can concretely design & implement it – and why it's legally necessary.

كيف تحوّل أنبوب تغذية طفلة إلى مصدر ألم يهدد حياتها؟
نجوى حجاج، 7 سنوات، تحتاج إلى أنبوب تغذية جديد، لكن بسبب الحصار الإسرائيلي ومنع إدخال المستلزمات الطبية، تعذّر استبداله. أصبح الأنبوب القديم مصدر ألم والتهابات بدلًا من أن يكون وسيلة لإنقاذ حياتها.
“يما… بطني بيوجعني، الأنبوب تعبني، ومفيش بديل.”
حالة نجوى لا تحتمل الانتظار. هي بحاجة إلى إجلاء طبي عاجل خارج غزة قبل فوات الأوان.
Quand j'étais enfant, on m'expliquait que l'URSS et l'Allemagne de l'Est étaient totalitaires parce que l'État espionnait tous les messages privés.
Il y avait des films sur la Stasi, sur l'absence de vie privée et d'état de droit.

"Killing Palestinian children with bombs is not a crime; what is a crime against humanity is killing Israeli children, that is what is atrocious"

“The Moment Ahmad Raised His Hands in Surrender, an Israeli Soldier Shot Him Directly in the Head”
The Guardian reports that Palestinian aid truck driver Ahmad Esleem was shot dead by an Israeli soldier while transporting humanitarian aid into Gaza, in what eyewitnesses and Gaza’s Transport Companies’ Association describe as a field execution.
Esleem, who was delivering food for World Central Kitchen (WCK) through a fully coordinated humanitarian convoy, was ordered out of his truck after one vehicle broke down near the Philadelphi Corridor.
Witnesses say Israeli soldiers forced the drivers to strip, assaulted them, and made them stand under the sun. As Ahmad Esleem raised his hands in surrender, an Israeli soldier shot him directly in the head.
The 30-year-old, a father of two children, including a one-month-old baby, was killed despite wearing official identification, carrying all required permits, and operating under coordination approved by the Israeli military, according to his employer and Gaza’s truckers association.
Witnesses also said Israeli soldiers threatened the surviving drivers, warning they would meet the same fate as Esleem.
Reading about this amazing doctor — he was retired before October 2023, returned to volunteer in the hospital, was abducted and imprisoned for 200 days, tortured, starved, abused. He returned to the hospital as soon as he was released. A true hero. https://t.co/zQmDsQn8Wd
An Israeli soldier shot and killed a mentally ill young man after he crossed the "yellow line" east of Deir al-Balah. His family, unable to control his movements, dug a grave 300 metres from his corpse but aren't allowed to retrieve it.
For 2 days, his mother waves a white flag from dawn to sunset, hoping Israeli forces will permit her to recover his body, but she receives no response. The desperate family has now pleaded on Facebook for international help to bury their child.
On the same outskirts, Israel last month kidnapped a 3-year-old child and his father and shot the child dead: https://t.co/3snvUBocSr
