I told Congress they're killing poor kids in Gaza by buying bombs, and they're paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US. This was the authorities' response.
Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal.
And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.
On Nakba day, time to debunk Israel's foundational myths with their own words🧵
Myth No 1: "Israel accepted partition, Palestinians rejected"
Israel NEVER accepted partition; they only exploited it as a tactical step towards ethnic cleansing
Ben Gurion is crystal clear on this
Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' https://t.co/fbf9aojkcg
The tide is changing. Ordinary people: you think you are making no difference with your resistance to complicity with genocide, occupation and apartheid. You are, yes you are. Please continue.
REPORT: Biden Officials Admit They Never Pressured Israel for Ceasefire, as Israeli Leaders Boast of Playing Washington
“God did the State of Israel a favor that Biden was the president during this period… We fought [in Gaza] for over a year and the administration never came to us and said, ‘ceasefire now.’ It never did. And that’s not to be taken for granted.”
—Former Israeli ambassador Michael Herzog:
A sweeping Israeli Channel 13 investigation has exposed the Biden administration’s complicity in Israel’s 19-month war on Gaza. Nine top Biden officials acknowledged avoiding real pressure on Israel—even as the death toll surpassed 30,000. Israeli leaders openly bragged they dragged out the war, playing for time until Donald Trump’s return.
Former National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, Ambassador Tom Nides, and others defended their unwavering support for Israel—even as they admitted enabling a campaign one U.S. aide described as “killing and destroying for the sake of killing and destroying.”
Here’s what the investigation revealed: 🧵⬇️
SETTLER ATTACK ON BARDALA LAST NIGHT: PRESS RELEASE
Field Report – “Save the Jordan Valley” Campaign
On Wednesday night, around 10:00 PM, the village of Bardala in the northern Jordan Valley came under a violent attack by groups of settlers. One group vandalized the village’s agricultural water pipelines, prompting several local farmers to mobilize in defense of their land and property.
After successfully repelling the initial attackers, the farmers were ambushed by another group of armed settlers lying in wait. The situation quickly escalated into direct gunfire, resulting in injuries to seven civilians — two of whom are in critical condition.
Despite the presence of the Israeli army and police, no action was taken to stop the assault. Instead, the soldiers provided protection to the settlers, who took advantage of the situation to continue their attack. They advanced toward residential homes in the village, setting fire to Ahmad Ibrahim Jahalin Alaa Jahalin’s home, as well as his father’s. These two homes housed two families — a total of ten people, the majority of whom are women and girls. Both homes, consisting of residential tents, a structure, and their contents — including furniture, personal documents, cement house and livestock shelters (barracks), covered an area of approximately 160 m² — were completely destroyed.
This attack is part of a broader escalation that has been ongoing for more than a week, during which Bardala’s agricultural water networks have repeatedly been sabotaged by settlers. The village is now completely encircled by an apartheid wall, with a new settlement outpost recently established nearby. A military checkpoint has also been set up, severing Bardala’s connection to the city of Tubas via the Ibziq road.
What happened in Bardala is a deliberate and organized crime, carried out under the protection of the occupation. It represents a direct threat to the continued presence of Palestinian communities in the Jordan Valley and demands urgent action from human rights organizations and the international community.
Imagine this. Your son is a paramedic. He goes out on a rescue mission to save lives.
His ambulance is ambushed by an illegal occupying army. His 15 colleagues all executed by that army, which then tries to cover up its crime.
Their bodies are unearthed from a mass grave a week later, but news emerges that your son's body has not been found.
You know nothing of his fate. Then much later, you learn from human rights groups that he has been seized by the occupying army – the same army that executed the aid crews and then lied about those executions.
That army is known to disappear anyone it seizes into torture centres, where beatings, mutilations and sexual assaults are commonplace.
You find a legal group that agrees to appeal to the occupying army to disclose the whereabouts of your son and demand he has access to a lawyer. But the army refuses to tell you anything. It says he will not be able to meet a lawyer for the first two months after his disappearance.
You have only one recourse: to appeal to the supreme court of the state whose army illegally occupies you. That court almost always sides with the occupying army.
This has been the plight of the parents of Asaad al-Nassasra over the past several weeks. Over eight decades, many tens of thousands of Palestinian parents have had similar experiences to that the Nassasra family.
Over the same time period, the vast majority of Palestinians have also had a child, parent, aunt or uncle, cousin or friend murdered by the occupying army.
In the West we are told the occupying state is the 'only democracy in the Middle East', and its army the 'most moral in the world'. Any resistance to it is condemned as 'terrorism'.
Palestinians know the reality, as does much of the rest of the world. We call Palestinians, and their allies, 'antisemites' for trying to tell us their story.
The image below is of a report in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, which is prepared to reveal far more about the horrors faced by Palestinians under occupation than any western establishment media outlet.
