This has historically been referred to as a "concentration camp."

Everyone’s condemning Ben Guvir.
But if you admit that he is awful. Then by extension you have to concede the Israeli government does some awful things. He is the national security minister. He oversees the police.
And the border police units operating in the occupied West Bank.

Fran Lebowitz on the billionaires: “Every time someone suggests [a wealth tax] they say I’m moving. Go! They add nothing to New York. In the 19th century, those robber barons, they employed people. All this money magic employs no one. Goodbye, go. We don’t need you”

[Daniel Seidemann @DanielSeidemann]

The Irish statement bears special moral weight.

Scenes such as those witnessed today are not rare in these parts - except that the victims of the abuse and humiliation are almost invariably Palestinian.

Most of those "outraged" today are silent when it's the Palestinians.

Ireland is one of a handful of countries consistently challenging human rights abuses, 24/7, when others find silence to be the path of least resistance.

Bring it on.

Yes, because you now have two homes.

This week, 30 years ago

The Testimony of Taliesin Jones was launched @Dauntbooks It's had a quiet but steady life and remains in print thanks to @PenguinUKBooks . The book won a few prizes, received some nice notices and was made into a decent film starring Jonathan Pryce. Tidy.

John Mearsheimer: "If I went to Israel and I was killed, someone shot me, do you think there would be any accountability? Seriously. If any of you went there, and you were killed, do you think there would be any accountability? There wouldn't be. That is how outrageous it is."

“It brings a human dimension to the war…” says Sky News’ military analyst about a missing American pilot from an F-15 jet.

Has Sky News ever raised that same human dimension about the US and Israel’s carpet bombing of Gaza, Lebanon and Iran?

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Israel has no right to “take control” of Lebanese land, but you know that @nytimes.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

It's incredible watching the New York Times having to describe ethnic cleansing without ever using the phrase.

Massive corruption exposed on ABC News. A UAE official bought a 500 million dollar secret stake in a Trump company right before getting access to guarded US AI chips. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche desperately tries to deflect. The White House is for sale.

Ben Gvir is posting videos showing off the execution chamber where he will exterminate thousands of Palestinian hostages.

Imagine if Hitler broadcast videos of his gas chambers to gloat like this.

The objective of the war has become undoing the consequence of the war.

The stupidest war in history.

A Zionist Israeli soldier trashes a Palestinian grocery store.

​The elderly Palestinian shopkeeper watches helplessly.

Repost this. Please I beg you

Why is it always “Iran backed Houthis” and not “American backed Israel”?
