Why is the well-documented torture and rape of Palestinians being ignored by most of the media? @thetimes, @Telegraph, @BBCNews @nytimes have said not a word...

[Dr. Omar Suleiman @omarsuleiman]

Did you know that today alone:

🔴 Netanyahu was in the occupied Golan Heights of Syria.
🔴 Israel attacked southern Lebanon killing over a dozen people.
🔴 Israeli airstrikes in Gaza raised death toll to 280 since the "ceasefire".

Your media isn’t doing its job, or maybe it is.

[Dan Sheehan @danpjsheehan]

Beloved disability rights activist Alice Wong co-founded Crips for eSims for Gaza, which raised millions of dollars to support internet and phone connectivity for Palestinians in Gaza during the genocide.

In doing so, she helped save countless lives.

RIP 💔

“The world will see Jews living in peace under a Muslim just like they did in Palestine before the Zionists came.

And then they will understand that it’s Zionism that is the problem”

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Why does Israel destroy livelihoods including access to water in illegally occupied territory? War criminals through and through.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

This seems important, which explains why there’s no media coverage.

“O Muslims! Respect the poor and seek proximity to God by taking care of them and giving comfort to them. Although today they are helpless and poor, tomorrow they will be the kings of the Garden of Refuge and the great ones of the Highest Paradise. Do not look at the fact that today their state is defective, their clothing tattered, their faces yellow, and their hearts full of pain. Look rather at the fact that tomorrow they will be the great ones of the Abode of Peace and the chiefs of the Abode of the Station.”

Unilever / Magnum stopped Ben & Jerry’s from creating a flavor for Palestine — so I’m doing it
myself.
I’ve got a watermelon, an empty pint, and I need your help:
Name the flavor or suggest ingredients
Or design the pint packaging
Tag @yobencohen, @MagnumGlobal use #JusticeforPalestine to submit
Use your voice when Ben & Jerry’s can’t — to secure peace, justice, and dignity in Palestine

Two Indian Muslims win elections in the US.
A historic day indeed.

[CAIR National @CAIRNational]

Congratulations to Virginia Lt. Governor winner Ghazala Hashmi. State Senator Hashmi has made history as the first Muslim woman elected to statewide office ANYWHERE in America. We hope this historic moment will inspire American Muslims to continue pursuing public service across our country, God willing.

I'm old enough to remember the picture of Dick Cheney with this feet up on his desk as he watched the twin towers burn on a TV screen. And I'm old enough to remember when he conspired with other now dead or decrepit neocons to murder or destroy the lives of millions of Iraqis and dismantle, utterly, that ancient civilization so they could loot the country's oil, gold, artifacts, and other treasures, while simultaneously robbing the American public purse of hundreds of billions in 'reconstruction' schemes.

now he's dead. I wonder if he thought all that harm was worth it in his final days. Like Kissinger before him, the world rejoices at his passing. Kushner will be dead someday too. So will Witkoff and Rubio and Biden and Blinken and Clinton (both of them)—and the world will rejoice once more at the passing of evil from the earth.

I wonder if they know that, or if they care.

I wonder if they understand how profoundly empty they are; what a waste of life it is to live such shallow lives, where the pursuit of wealth is all there is, and there's never enough of it to fill the expansive hole inside them.

In memory of a million murdered Iraqi children, I say good riddance to this butcher.

the architect of the war on terror, the author of the wars that killed over 1 million Muslims dying the very day New York is about to elect its first Muslim mayor. Allah is the best of planners
