“Neither the Hague nor anyone will stop us” should be a sentence that shakes the entire world.
Israel knows they are committing genocide, they know they have been allowed to commit various atrocities w/ no repercussions and they will continue to do so.
This is morally indefensible. How can we expect Netanyahu’s government to stop the mass killing of civilians and calls for ethnic cleansing if we continue to supply the weapons used to carry it out?
i don’t know why we’re arguing about whether adding infinity cops to the NYPD payroll could’ve stopped today’s shooting when we have this shining example of their courage & accompanying court ruling already

The NYPD’s literal anti-terror unit has spent the last two weeks attacking the homeless, but not once prevented a single terror attack. This is what we mean when we say policing does not equal public safety.
This morning alone, we saw a shooting in Sunset Park at the subway platform and a *second* hate attack on Sikh Punjabis in Richmond Hill.
NYPD did not prevent either incident - yet they will receive billions more to let this problem fester. This is not the public safety we need.
TIME naming a billionaire tax evader who's received billions in govt subsidies 'Person of the Year' while underpaid public school teachers crawl on their hands & knees for $1 bills to buy basic supplies pretty much sums up where we are as a country right now.
