[Middle East Eye @MiddleEastEye]

Two years after Israel’s pager attacks in Lebanon, 14-year-old Ali Abbas is rebuilding his life after losing an eye and part of his hand. Despite more surgeries ahead, he has returned to school, sports and daily life, determined to move forward.

If the midterms don’t deliver a Congress that will defeat Trump’s crazy tariffs policy and stop the Iran war I fear for the US and the entire world. Please America, vote for those who strongly oppose Trump this November.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Mike Johnson: “If we were to lose the midterms, heaven forbid, these Democrats, y'all impeachment's not even the big concern. They will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet…”

[Daniel Lambert @dlLambo]

Powerful and utterly upsetting.

Today in the Irish Examiner.

800 items NOT allowed into Gaza and it's only half the actual list.

4 standout for me:

- Toys
- Crutches
- Babies nappies
- Cancer medication

Israel PREVENTS the very basics of life

@euronews Who was the party first responsible for the OTB not being enacted in 2018 again?

[Dr Tom Clonan @TomClonan]

I oppose the Govt’s Disability (Amendment) Bill which will significantly Dilute the One and Only Legal Right #Disabled Irish Citizens have -The Right to Assessment of Need -An #Ableist Bill proposing that Unqualified HSE Administrators will review #Disabled Citizens Medical Files

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Not only did Netanyahu commit genocide in Gaza. Now he's threatening Israeli filmmakers who exposed it with criminal charges and attempting to strip citizenship from anyone who "defames" soldiers.

NO MORE U.S. TAXPAYER FUNDING FOR THE EXTREMIST NETANYAHU GOVERNMENT IN ISRAEL

@TheMandyGall No one commenting here has a clue about just who is on the housing lists or how council housing works.

The real question to ask is why are the housing lists allowed be so long. HINT: it’s not because of the numbers looking for housing it’s DECADES of not building enough

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

This is the most corrupt administration in U.S. history and it's not even close.

The world needs more people like @Macklemore

More than 100 French and British former diplomats have said Palestine is being erased in front of the world’s eyes and called for urgent action including trade and arms sales bans to press Israel to accept a Palestinian state.

[Boopsie Boots @beboopedly]

@vonderleyen Please consider one question, what would have to happen for the EU to suspend trade with Israel? If there is no circumstance which would cause the EU to suspend the agreement, then why was a human rights clause included in the first place?
It’s shameful.

[John O’Brennan @JohnOBrennan2]

The horrific people who engaged in the public pile on of Prof Jason Arday really need to take a good look at themselves. This rebuttal of many of the claims made amongst the hysteria makes compelling reading. @NafeezAhmed

[Elizabeth Tsurkov @LizHurra]

Retired IDF Colonel Doron Meinrath was arrested today by the IDF for protecting a Palestinian community in Khirbet a-Tawil in the occupied West Bank from settler violence. The IDF arrested him after declaring the area of a water cistern he was protecting a "closed military zone".
Doron is one of several thousands of Israeli activists risking their health and freedom to serve as "protective presence" against settler terrorists.

IDF marks Palestinian detainees with numbers as it expands northern West Bank operations. MK Ahmad Tibi wrote, 'An image reminiscent of dark periods, and one that should shock everyone' https://t.co/RIxx4uMlwr

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

How is the world ok with this? How are liberals in the US and the UK who pretend Israel is a democratic ally?

[Agnes Callamard @AgnesCallamard]

“My only crime was being a doctor.”

For 22 months, Dr. Ahmad Mhanna was arbitrarily detained by Israel only for doing his job: treating the wounded in Gaza in the midst of genocide.

Dr. Ahmad Mhanna, former director of Al-Awda Hospital in northern Gaza, shares his harrowing testimony of survival.

He lays bare the Israeli system of repression and oppression, a system that destroys and criminalizes medical care, expertise, facilities.

Detaining doctors for saving lives is not security. It is cruel and inhumane. It is unlawful. It is a grave violation of international law.

Read Dr. Ahmad Mhanna’s testimony and demand justice:
