Burying the ambulances themselves along with the medics they executed is one of the elements that makes this latest crime so extraordinary and also revealing.
A group of IDF soldiers collectively agreed to use a bulldozer to bury the ambulances in sand, with the men they had just killed, on the apparent hope that nobody would notice that 15 men were missing. Consider how far down the path of dehumanization you have to be to get there.
SICKENING—Trump’s DHS just deported a surgeon from Brown University Medical School—who is here legally on an H1B visa that doesn’t expire until 2027, and has committed no crimes. Trained in the U.S. at Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale as a **transplant surgeon** (one of the most difficult surgical fields in all of medicine!!!), she is a highly trained doctor on kidney transplants, which cannot be easily replaced. Her phone was seized at the border. A federal judge handed down an injunction against her deportation—but she was already deported on a plane en route to Paris. Brown’s kidney transplant clinic is now strained by her deportation.
ICE relentlessly pursued this Fulbright scholar and forced her to flee the country because she had liked some pro-Palestine posts and signed onto a letter calling for Palestinian liberation.
Even the most basic expressions of support for Palestinian human rights or critique of Israel can make you a target for destruction by the Trump regime.
This isn’t funny but sanctioning the UN Human Rights Council for finding Israel guilty of systemic sexual violence against Palestinians is straight out of The Onion
not one, not two, but every single investigation has concluded israel is committing genocide. Do you know how rare it is to have this type of consensus, do you realize how overwhelming the evidence has to be to have this type of consensus
The White House singling out the Middle East, South Asian, and African Studies department at a top Ivy League institution should set off blaring sirens to universities everywhere.
In a three-minute video posted to X, Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut makes the case for why all Americans should be concerned about the arrest of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil.
Wow. Turns out Columbia expelling students is just 1 of a 9 Point Plan to get their $400M back. This includes adopting fascist IHRA definition of anti-Semitism to address “anti-Zionist discrimination”. Not “anti-SEMITIC” or “anti-JEWISH”. But “anti-ZIONIST”. In this def, Jews protesting Zionism would be hate speech against themselves. Huh?
WOW, the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security is asked how Khalil supported Hamas and admits outright that his crime is just "basically pro-Palestinian activity"
This is a totally insane proposal to take control of Columbia's Middle Eastern studies dept. Even during height of Iraq War and "war on terror," we didn't see this
Mahmoud Khalil’s home was stolen by the "chosen people."
His family were forced into homelessness.
Now, America—the so-called land of freedom—has ARRESTED him for speaking out against the state that stole his home and land.

The UN special rapporteur on the right to food warned today that Israel is carrying out an unprecedentedly rapid campaign of starvation in Gaza, calling it "the fastest in modern history."
"How is Israel able to starve 2.3 million people so quickly and so completely?" Michael Fakhri asked in a joint press briefing alongside other UN special rapporteurs in Geneva.
"This is the fastest starvation campaign in modern history," Fakhri said.
