What is so difficult to accept in the idea that Palestinians should, like all other people, be free of the travail of deportations, curfews, bombardment, and general misery?
—Edward Said
AIPAC had to spend $8.5 million to get 51% of the vote to defeat Cori Bush. Billionaires buying elections is not what this country is supposed to be about. We have to end Citizens United and super PACs and move to public funding of elections.
U.S. Olympians are using their trip to the Olympics to get the basic preventative healthcare they can’t afford to get in the U.S.
We should be embarrassed that we’re the only industrialized country without universal healthcare — all because lobbyists pay off our politicians.
Apartheid! How dare you?
Israelis are furious that an "Israeli-Arab" family (Palestinian citizens of Israel) managed to buy a house in Caesarea, which used to be a Palestinian city until Israel ethnically cleansed it & wiped it out in 1948.
Residents are taking to the street!

Jewish Life at Duke University presents their "Antisemitism 101 Training" as impartial. But from attending the training, I found it to be Zionist indoctrination. So I wrote this op-ed.

It should now be apparent to everyone that the pro-ceasefire position has been the true pro-hostage release position since the early weeks of this war.
Shame on those — including many who should have known better — who denigrated it as otherwise.
We live in a world where the White House will publicly condemn students’ placards on college campuses but won’t publicly condemn a Republican politician flying to Israel to write genocidal messages on literal bombs. 🤷🏽♂️
Biden is publicly telling Israel they’ve lost the war and trying to push them to accept an end the genocide without achieving any of its declared Gaza war goals. But he’s lying that Hamas rejected previous deals.
"Israel’s testing of advanced weapons, including the unprecedented use of AI-powered autonomous weapons systems on the civilian population, reflects a longstanding pattern of using besieged Gaza as an open-air laboratory to test cutting-edge, lethal technologies."
Soldiers committing genocide in Palestine just held a minute’s silence in memory of a genocide they pledge to never allow happen again. That’s where we are in this Orwellian dystopia.
Israel started the ground Invasion and violent strikes on Rafah, Rafah has more than 1.4M displaced Palestinian.
You know why they did it? They don’t want a ceasefire and for them nothing is better than spending the holocaust remembrance day mass murdering Palestinian!
Be more anti-Zionist in 2024. Never waver. Boycott Israel. Divest. Speak up in your unions & institutions. Refuse to dock Israeli goods. Advocate for sanctions. Work to cut government complicity. Demand a ceasefire now. Imagine beyond what we're told is possible by the mainstream
