🇮🇱🇺🇳 Danny Danon, Israel's UN Ambassador frustrated from drawings by children expressing sympathy for the massacred Palestinian children, calls them anti-semitics”

“Here at the main entrance of the United Nations, where thousands of people are passing every day, the UN decided to put an exhibition about world peace.
Look at the drawings of children from all around the world.
Nothing about Israel.
Look what they have.
They don't recognize Israel.
They promote hate in those drawings.
That is shameful.
This is part of the hypocrisy of the United Nations.
I demand that the UN will remove this exhibit immediately and will stop with the hypocrisy against Israel.”

Free Naqaa Hamed. The Israeli apartheid regime is wrongfully detaining another U.S. citizen while our government does nothing to protect her.

Naqaa is a journalist, who—like the hundreds of Palestinian journalists killed in Gaza and the nearly 40 others in Israeli detention—was targeted for exposing the truth.

[Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson]

According to an informed federal official, in the coming months the Trump administration plans to send a total of 40,000 Mark 84 and Blu-117 bombs to the government of Israel. Each bomb weighs 2,000 pounds. This appears to be the largest transfer of conventional explosive ordnance from the United States in modern history.

How big is this shipment? It amounts to 40,000 tons of bombs. For perspective, the largest American air raid of World War Two was the Eighth Air Force’s attack on Berlin in March of 1945. Combined, the 2,023 Allied aircraft involved dropped about 3,000 tons of bombs. That’s 7.5 percent of what Trump is sending to Israel. That same month, March of 1945, the US Army Air Forces began the single most destructive bombing raid in human history, Operation Meetinghouse over Tokyo. More than 100,000 Japanese civilians were killed. By the end of that operation, the US had dropped 1,600 tons of bombs. That’s four percent of what Trump is sending to Israel. World War Two ended five months later, when the US dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. The shipment Trump is sending to Israel amounts to more than three times the destructive power of that nuclear explosion. There is no precedent for what the Trump administration is doing.

Nor is there a justification. The government of Israel is not fighting World War Two, or even a war. It is engaged in periodic skirmishes with a guerrilla force in Lebanon, and it is working to exterminate an unarmed civilian population in Gaza. Neither front requires modern 2,000-pound bombs.

An American-made Mark 84 has a destruction radius of half a mile. It releases a thermal wave the temperature of the surface of the sun. Within 100 feet of the explosion, rock melts and human flesh turns to vapor. The bomb collapses apartment buildings and leaves craters thirty-five feet deep. Until the war with Iran, the US military generally avoided using the Mark 84 in urban areas. It kills too many civilians.

For the Netanyahu government, that’s been the upside. In the weeks after October 7, the IDF dropped nearly six hundred 2,000-pound bombs on densely populated areas in Gaza, including on more than 100 officially designated civilian evacuation zones. The slaughter was so grotesque and embarrassing that for a moment the Biden administration paused a shipment of Mark 84s. Those shipments quickly resumed under Trump. Now they’ve accelerated.

It’s hard to overstate the scale of the crime the Israeli government is committing in Gaza. Over the last three years, more than a quarter-million Palestinians have been killed or wounded by Israeli forces there. The majority of them have been noncombatants: women, the elderly and tens of thousands of children. Many thousands more remain missing, presumably entombed under the rubble of 200,000 collapsed buildings. So far the Israelis have destroyed 92 percent of all homes in Gaza, and 34 of the 36 hospitals. By comparison, the 1945 Allied bombings of Dresden, now acknowledged as a war crime, destroyed about half of the city’s inhabited buildings.

By any definition, what the Netanyahu government has done in Gaza is genocide. The 40,000 new bombs the Trump administration is sending will be used to do the same in Lebanon, and likely in other countries in the region. If you wanted to extend the Iran war into the indefinite future, this is exactly what you’d do.

So far none of this has received public scrutiny. At some point, inevitably, it will be described in media accounts as an “arms sale.” It is not an arms sale. It is a gift, funded by American taxpayers through the Foreign Military Financing program, an arrangement designed to disguise welfare as capitalism: Congress appropriates money to the executive branch, which transfers the cash to Israel to “buy” American-made weapons, in this case from General Dynamics. Politicians claim this is a win for America. Most voters have no idea they paid for it. The bill in this case is about $3 billion. Add that to the $352 billion the US Treasury has transferred to Israel since 1951.

How did this happen? The request for 40,000 new high-explosive civilian-killing bombs originated at the US Embassy in Jerusalem, which is run by Christian Zionist Ambassador Mike Huckabee and his aide David Milstein, who is the stepson of Fox News host Mark Levin. From there it moved to the State Department, where Marco Rubio enthusiastically approved it.

At this point, only four more people need to sign off before the bombs ship to Israel: Senators Jim Risch and Jeanne Shaheen, the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee; and Congressmen Brian Mast and Gregory Meeks, the top two members of the equivalent House committee. All four are committed neocons. Collectively they’ve taken millions from the Israel lobby. In 2015, Brian Mast traveled to Israel to volunteer for the Israeli military. In 2023, Mast showed up in the House of Representatives wearing an IDF uniform.

It’s hard to imagine any of them hesitating before sending more free bombs to Israel. Only public outrage can stop this.

Israel has just bombed a tent in Khan Younis.
Earlier today, (11 a.m.)israel bombed another tent west of Khan Younis. At least five people, including children, were wounded.
At noon, israel carried out a strike on a tent in Gaza City. At least ten people were injured.
At 1:45 p.m., Israel bombed a house close to al-Shifa Hospital. One Palestinian was killed and several others were wounded.

[MSF International @MSF]

On 13 September, an MSF bus carrying 10 humanitarian staff in Gaza City was damaged by an Israeli airstrike on a targeted vehicle just two metres away. One of our colleagues was injured in the strike.

The bus was clearly identified as an MSF vehicle, with a large MSF sticker visible on its roof. Once again, Israeli forces have shown a blatant disregard for the safety of humanitarian and medical personnel.

Nowhere is safe in Gaza. Civilians, healthcare workers and humanitarian staff must be protected. Clearly marked medical and humanitarian vehicles must be spared from attacks.

Israeli quadcopters kill at least 60 Palestinians in Gaza since ceasefire, rights group says
——
Israeli quadcopter drones have killed at least 60 Palestinian civilians in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire took effect in October 2025, according to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor.

The rights group said its field documentation identified repeated attacks involving Israeli drones firing directly at Palestinians, dropping bombs on tents sheltering displaced people and targeting farmers and shepherds near the so-called “yellow line.” It said children, displaced Palestinians and people returning to inspect their homes were among those targeted.

“The repeated occurrence of these incidents after the ceasefire, and the targeting of children, displaced people, farmers, shepherds, and people returning to check on their homes, reveals a continuing pattern of the deliberate killing of Palestinian civilians,” Euro-Med said. Gaza’s Health Ministry says 1,368 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks since the so-called ceasefire began.

[B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم @btselem]

מה באמת קורה בגדה המערבית? כדי להבין את המציאות חייבים להסתכל מעבר לאירוע הבודד. הצטרפו ליולי נובק, מנכ״לית בצלם, ולכרים ג׳ובראן, מנהל מחלקת השטח שלנו, למסע בגדה כדי לראות איך פועלת המערכת הישראלית שמוחקת את הקיום הקולקטיבי הפלסטיני בגדה המערבית, ועד כמה הואץ הפרויקט בשטח בשנים האחרונות.

הסרט מציג את הממצאים המרכזיים מתוך הדו״ח החדש שאנחנו מפרסמים השבוע, "פרויקט המחיקה", ומחבר בין התופעות שאנו רואים בגדה מדי יום: הרג ואלימות, נישול ופגיעה ממוסדת בכל תחומי החיים.

כשמחברים בין כל האירועים, רואים את המערכת: ישראל מפעילה מנגנונים מתואמים שמפרקים את התנאים שמאפשרים לפלסטינים להתקיים כקולקטיב בגדה המערבית.

צפו בסרט כדי לראות את התמונה המלאה:  מהו פרויקט המחיקה, איך הוא פועל, ואיך הוא צמח מתוך עשרות שנים של משטר אפרטהייד ישראלי.

לחבר את הנקודות. לראות את המערכת.
