Concerned Citizen

An ever more concerned global citizen watching things spiral dangerously down despite those shining individuals that try to keep our world sane

Israel is carpet bombing Tyre. I don’t think people unfamiliar with this city understand what does this mean. Tyre is over 4,700 year-old & one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. It is included as a whole in the UNESCO World Heritage. My heart is aching😭

According to Israeli law, anyone from anywhere in the world can adopt Judaism & instantly become eligible for migration & citizenship to Israel. There's only one group of people Israeli laws explicitly forbids from converting to Judaism. Guess which

Israel’s army has released fabricated dossiers framing us, the last remaining journalists in North Gaza reporting on Israel’s extermination and ethnic-cleansing campaign, as “terrorists”.

This blatant and belligerent attempt to transform us, the last witnesses in the north, into killable targets is an assassination threat and obvious attempt to preemptively justify our murder.

We would like to remind everyone that after murdering our colleague Ismail Al Ghoul, Israel released a document that claimed he supposedly received a military ranking on July 1, 2007, when he would have been a 10 year old child.

This public threat was made without any evidence and is part of a systematic propaganda campaign to justify the unjustifiable as Israel continues to target civilians in Gaza, including doctors, aid workers, children and us journalists.

We call on our colleagues and media institutions around the world to show their solidarity with us.

Despite these dangerous and untrue threats made against us, we remain committed to our profession and will continue to report the facts on the ground as the genocide regretfully continues unabated.

Israel can't ban journalists from going into Lebanon like they can in Gaza, so when Israel claimed there was a bunker under a hospital in Beirut the press just sent a bunch of reporters to investigate and they immediately saw Israel was lying. That's why they ban press from Gaza.

What’s it called again when 80% of the ppl want a permanent ceasefire and 60% want an arms embargo, but the elected officials ignore the ppl who put them in office and do whatever the hell they want—w/no regard for human life—as long as they pad their pockets for personal gain?

The CNN death-by-bulldozer apologia is even more disturbing when you realize the IDF killed American activist Rachel Corrie that way in 2003.

It would be a real shame if this tweet by Elon Musk (in 2022) saying that Trump is too old to be president went viral.

You know what to do.

mental that "we need to kill them, every one of them" isn't a call for genocide, but "from the river to the sea" is

"Why are you bombing a hospital?"

'There's gold in the basement'.

"Ok"

It's 2024 and this is modern journalism.

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

🔥 Well, whaddaya know…

BBC tours hospital IDF says sits above Hezbollah gold. They were given free access to everywhere.

And?

Nada.

Just like when IDF produced graphics of Gaza hospitals with command centres beneath and found… an Arabic calendar. https://t.co/tUk9kRGYCF

Idk, @SkyNews, maybe this quote should be in the headline.

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

How are we all supposed to just sit and pretend it’s normal and fine that Israel bombed every hospital in Gaza and is now moving on to bomb hospitals in Lebanon?

I feel insane. How is the world allowing this war on medics? How can we watch this happen again? How?

people have been posting a lot about this article for the obvious reasons, but it's also deeply worrying for a specific reason: suicides like these are one of the core reasons the Nazis switched from guns to gas chambers
