BREAKING:
Israeli settlers are burning Taybeh in occupied Palestine.
A village that has stood for thousands of years.
A place where Jesus once walked.
Home to the oldest living Christian community in the world.
And not a peep from Western mainstream media.
Yesterday, I was notified of the 50th death in ICE custody since Trump returned to office.
This is unprecedented and further proof that ICE and their private, for-profit prison contractors should not be sent another cent of taxpayer dollars. There must be accountability.
Reps. Ihan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Summer Lee, and Jim McGovern are pushing for a war powers resolution that would block U.S. support for Israeli military operations in Lebanon.
The House votes on this resolution this afternoon.
At least 3,526 people have been killed and 10,733 others injured in Lebanon since Israel escalated attacks March 2, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
⭕️ An entire family was burned to death after an Israeli airstrike hit a residential apartment west of Gaza City overnight.
The five victims were:
▪️ Manar Ibrahim Labed
▪️ Hassan Rabah Labed
▪️ Mohammed Hassan Labed
▪️ Rafah Hassan Labed
▪️ Tamim Hassan Labed
Local journalists say the family was asleep inside the apartment when it was struck.
This is horrifying. A private prison corporation is profiting off the forced labor of ICE detainees at Delaney Hall.
People are being denied access to basic medical care & sanitation. They're given rotten food to eat.
It's not enough to shut these facilities down. Abolish ICE.
The lesson Israel has learned, time and again, is that it can commit genocide and other atrocities with near-total impunity.
Now it's exporting the Gaza playbook to Lebanon.
Israel's war in Lebanon is killing thousands and displacing over a million.
NO MORE U.S. AID TO ISRAEL.
There was a point, 3 yrs ago, when Israel felt compelled to explain its attacks on hospitals. Then it realized Western govts aren’t fussed about such war crimes & Western media was happy to justify them. And so here we are: dozens of hospitals bombed in Gaza, Iran & Lebanon.
⚡️⭕️ Lebanon: Tears and terror in Tibnine.. moments of panic experienced by children at Al-Batoul nursery following an Israeli airstrike yesterday in front of the nursery building!
After breaking her leg at the protest in #Newark, a reporter from @AP had to NEGOTIATE with law enforcement to be able to leave because police were blocking BOTH exits.
Like what are we doing here?
“I want to kill someone today & it might be you"
"They wrenched my trousers & underwear down & I was raped by one of the soldiers"
"Other people had guns inserted inside them"
"My daughter was syringed with an unknown substance"
