A UN commission has found that Israel is committing genocide through a "deliberate strategy to destroy the future of the Palestinians in Gaza by targeting their children".
The truth always comes out in the end — and we must never, ever let it be forgotten.
Stellan Skarsgård on his worldviews
"My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: 'Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.' It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free schools, free universities, free health care, and free babysitting. Because our society could afford it"
"In America, people think social democracy is some kind of communism. They think capitalism is freedom. It’s not. It’s only freedom to exploit people"

This genocide belongs to Britain, too.
The government’s legacy will be its complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.
We will never give up until there is justice, peace and freedom for the Palestinian people.
The idea that someone would “pose” as a journalist by doing live reporting all day, every day, for two straight years — but is actually secretly a terrorist (when??) — is so stupid it demonstrates how much power Israel believes it has. Their excuse for assassinating a world renowned journalist — and his entire crew! — doesn’t even have to make any sense for them to put it forward. It doesn’t matter what they say, they can kill with impunity and they know it.
Israeli courts released violent settler Yinon Levi and he is now back in the village working to expand the nearby illegal settlement, a week after killing Odeh Hathalin. Odeh’s family members are still imprisoned and police refusing to give back his body.

🟠 BREAKING: As Famine Spreads, Israel Destroys Supplies from 1,000 Aid Trucks It Refused to Let Into Gaza
Kan News, Israel’s public broadcaster, spoke with Israeli military officials who admitted they destroyed food, water, and medical supplies from more than 1,000 aid trucks left to rot at Kerem Shalom—while Gaza’s Health Ministry warns of mass death unfolding in real time. Israel had blocked UN officials from collecting the trucks to distribute in Gaza.
▪️ Aid Blocked, Then Destroyed
➤ “We buried everything in the ground, and some of it we even burned,” an Israeli army official told Kan News. “Even today, thousands of packages are sitting in the sun. If they are not transferred into the Strip, we will have to destroy those too.”
➤ “The mechanism simply doesn’t work,” one military source admitted. “The trucks are stuck. There’s a mechanism that doesn’t function. There are problems with the roads, and coordination isn’t working either.”
➤ “We have here the largest grain warehouse that exists,” he added. “If the goods currently sitting there aren’t collected—we will clear it out and bury the supplies,”
➤ On airdrops: “This has already been attempted and was a complete failure—just like the port that was built.”
▪️ Gaza Health Ministry: ‘This Is Famine’
➤ Over 122 people, including 83 children, have died from hunger. Nine people died in the last 24 hours alone, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
➤ “Children are dying before our eyes. Mothers miscarry in tents because they can’t afford a single meal,” said the Ministry’s Director General.
➤ Acute malnutrition among children under five has surged from 0.5% to 11.5% in just one month. “We expect many more deaths in the coming days and even hours… this famine has spared no one.”
➤ “Even medical workers haven’t eaten. Some send what little food they have to their families. The world just watches, waiting for everyone to die,” the Minister said.

This is one of the most sick, twisted, depraved massacres yet. Israel fired tank shells into a crowd of starving people waiting for food, killing over 50. They're not even denying it.
After 20 months of mass murder in Gaza - bombing homes, tents, and hospitals - killing thousands more in Lebanon, and just yesterday striking residential neighborhoods in Tehran to assassinate Iranian nuclear scientists and professors alongside their families, Israeli Ambassador @yechielleiter went on CNN to plead innocence:
“Look, it’s important to understand. They’re firing at our civilians. We’re firing at their nuclear infrastructure…Firing ballistic missiles into civilian population centers. That’s entirely different.”
israel is far worse than hamas. it has done thousands of october 7s with airstrikes, ground invasions and mass starvation for 19 months. anyone who refuses to recognize this fact simply doesnt believe palestinians are human.

The Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies presented it to the UN Security Council this week.
Israel recently committed the largest child massacre in its history. The numbers are not reported in the Israeli media, and if they are – it's always minimized | Opinion | Hanin Majadli

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.
We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.
This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.
