Israel is shooting and killing civilians returning to their homes in Nabatieh, South Lebanon.

Read that again.

Invading Israeli soldiers are opening fire on Lebanese residents on Lebanese soil.

There is no “ceasefire” when civilians are being shot for going home.

This may look like a medieval village, but it’s actually the interior of Castel Sant'Angelo.

It was built in Rome almost 2000 years old.

"Ben-Gvir, in addition to being an authoritarian racist, is a bona fide criminal. He has been found guilty in Israeli courts of eight offenses, including rioting, obstructing a police officer, incitement to racism, possession of propaganda material for a terrorist organization, and support for a terrorist organization." -- @issacharoff:

Remember that the Minister in charge of all this is a Kahanist. Kahane's book "They Must Go" is about getting rid of Israeli Arabs.

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

The illegality of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank is one of the most well-established positions in international law, resting on four distinct pillars:

📜 GENEVA CONVENTIONS
Article 49(6) of the Fourth Geneva Convention (1949) explicitly prohibits an occupying power from transferring parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies. Israel ratified the Convention in 1951. The International Committee of the Red Cross, the authoritative interpreter of humanitarian law, has consistently held that this provision applies directly to the settlements.

🌐 UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTIONS
The Security Council has repeatedly affirmed settlement illegality — including in binding resolutions the US did not veto:
• Res. 446 (1979): settlements have "no legal validity"
• Res. 465 (1980): calls on Israel to dismantle existing settlements
• Res. 2334 (2016): passed 14-0 (US abstained), explicitly states settlements constitute "a flagrant violation of international law" and have "no legal validity"

⚖️ ICJ RULINGS
• Advisory Opinion on the Wall (2004): the Court found settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, had been established in breach of international law, and that the wall built to protect them compounded that illegality
• Advisory Opinion on the Occupied Palestinian Territory (2024): the Court went further, ruling that Israel's continued presence in the OPT — including the settlement enterprise — is itself unlawful, and called on all states not to recognise or assist it

🏛️ UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Countless UNGA resolutions have reaffirmed settlement illegality, including Res. 77/247 (2023), which requested the landmark 2024 ICJ opinion.

No serious legal scholar disputes this consensus. The settlements are illegal. The only remaining question is whether the international community will act on it.

@BBCr4today @bbcnickrobinson Meanwhile the BBC is agonising over the interpretation of a phrase which Israelis claim means doing this to Israel. Imagine having to live with the fear that those whose country you have tuned into rubble and whose children you have used as target practice may feel aggrieved.

From someone who knows how Trumpism works. Just imagine how visible the damage to America would be if Trump wasn’t sitting on a technology boom.

If you had any integrity, @YvetteCooperMP , and if you hadn't taken campaign donations from Labour Friends of Israel @_LFI,
you would be doing the same. You seem to have forgotten that
their PM has an arrest warrant out for him in the Hague

Catholicism survived so long because it is inherently self-correcting.

[Hala Jaber @HalaJaber]

Israel killed 9 paramedics in roughly 72 hours.
Let that sink in.

These are some of their faces.

According to Lebanon’s latest health sector figures, now updated after the killing of additional paramedics in the last 48 hours:

• 125 healthcare workers killed
• 273 wounded
• 149 attacks on the healthcare sector
• 142 ambulances targeted
• 32 medical centres destroyed
• 16 hospitals forced out of service
• 221 ambulance crews attacked

Lebanon’s emergency sector is not collapsing accidentally.
It is being systematically dismantled.
Israel is committing war crimes against Lebanon’s medical services.

[Ramy Abdu| رامي عبده @RamAbdu]

Jewish-American orthopedic surgeon Mark Perlmutter, who worked in Gaza, said Israeli soldiers took two Palestinian children, tied their hands behind their backs, and buried them alive at Nasser Hospital — their cries muffled by the dirt poured over them.

No society in history has ever reached this level of mass psychosis.

If you are unable to discern that, you yourself are in urgent need of psychiatric evaluation.

An entire society dancing cheerfully to the beat of GENOCIDE.

[Tanita Tikaram💙 @tanita_tikaram]

Cooper & the Labour gov. have spent their time in power crushing dissent to Israel’s genocide ,supplying weapons & ignoring reports on human rights abuses of Palestinians. Having created all the conditions for evil like Ben-Gvir to prosper she now pretends to be outraged by him.

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

Blimey! What 'the Jews' did???? Is that supposed to include me? No thanks.

[Israel Genocide Tracker @trackingisrael]

An Israeli unit's "homecoming" party featured a display of their well-documented annihilation of southern Lebanon's villages, met with cheers and laughter from crowds of soldiers, their relatives, and family members.

It is a scene impossible to see anywhere but Israel.

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

Absolute bombshell. Israeli Parliament Member Yitzhak Kroizer openly confesses to horrific war crimes on camera.

He explicitly states he fully supports killing innocent women and children, declaring there are no innocent civilians in Jenin and he has absolutely zero mercy.

[Heidi Matthews @Heidi__Matthews]

Flotilla participants are arriving at Istanbul airport. This is what Israel military and prison personnel did to them.

[Suppressed News. @SuppressedNws]

⚡️BREAKING:

The New York Times obtained autopsy reports for 14 of the 15 people killed in the March 23 Israeli attack on an ambulance and fire truck in Gaza.

The reports show that most victims—paramedics and rescue workers—were killed by gunshots to the head, chest, or back. Four were shot directly in the head [executed]. Others had shrapnel wounds. Despite wearing medical uniforms and traveling in marked vehicles with sirens, they were shot multiple times at close range.

Israel initially lied about the crime committed then later took responsibility once the lies were exposed. The 15 victims included 14 rescue workers and a UN employee. Israeli soldiers buried the bodies in a mass grave and crushed and buried the ambulances, fire truck, and UN vehicle.

NEW: The US is threatening to revoke the visas of the Palestinian delegation to the UN unless the Palestinian ambassador withdraws his run for vice president of the General Assembly, according to a US State Department cable Tuesday obtained by NPR.
