There it is

A city that came into life some 3000 years before the birth of Jesus Christ is being indiscriminately bombed by a country created in 1948. Heartbreaking to witness the destruction, and soul crushing to note the silent injustice.

If the world or world powers does not care for the loss of Arab life, then how about world archaeological heritage? The world raged when the Taliban bombed statues of Buddha, but as the oldest Phoenician city in Lebanon is viciously attacked, the world is silent.

Yes, Middle Eastern politics are very complicated.

However, they do become much simpler if you take it as a premise that children of all races are equally valuable.

Hezbollah is killing Israeli soldiers who are invading their country while Israeli soldiers deliberately kill women and children and medical staff and journalists. Guess which side the west calls terrorists.

[Jewish Voice for Peace @jvplive]

A growing number of Americans are calling on US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to be impeached for lying to Congress and denying that the Israeli government is deliberately blocking humanitarian aid from entering Gaza. Last week, @propublica revealed that US governmental agencies had confirmed to Blinken the Israeli government’s deliberate starvation of Palestinians, which meant that, under US law, the US was required to suspend its weapons shipments to the Israeli military. But in May, Blinken’s office denied these findings in a report to Congress. 🧵

@NickFerrariLBC @LBC Why do news headlines name the attack on Lebanon and Syria as ‘targeting Hizbollah’ when no one has claimed responsibility? Factually, therefore, we have no idea why such a wide raging attack on two nations+ a cross section of society has taken place+ should be reported as such.

Like a criminal suspecting that his accomplaces want to throw him under-the-bus, Netanyahu is in Congress to remind the US political ellite that this is as much their genocide as it is his.

@LBC of all the people LBC could have chosen to step in for @mrjamesob you’ve sourced @SuellaBraverman?! It all sounds apocalyptic. Sensible callers deflected, bigots and racists warmly empathised with. Stop giving toxic people a platform to spew their venom. Tuning out!

Genocide and devastation have not stopped in #Gaza. Keep talking about it. #Ceasefire_Now

Any chance of revoking these monsters UK Citizenship @JamesCleverly or do you only do that for groomed young girls 🤔

I lost a child and I am a very sad mommy but I know I’m not the saddest mommy in the world.

[Becca Peter @DefectiveBecca]

Watching my child die peacefully makes the cruelty of what is happening in Gaza eat through my soul and my bones. 

Death can be peaceful and beautiful even when it is tragic. 

Death can be cruel and terrible.
