White phosphorus ignites instantly on contact with oxygen. It burns at over 800°C. It melts through clothing, skin, muscle — and bone.
In the bloodstream, it becomes a systemic poison. It attacks the heart, liver, and kidneys leading to multi‑organ failure and death.
Monsters.
That particular moment when a British surgeon was giving his testimony to the UK Parliament.
He describes how IDF drones arrive right after airstrikes in Gaza, targeting and shooting the injured, including children,right on the spot.....
Palestine was in no way a desert, nor were its people primitive nomads. While these illusions were propagated to make the Zionist project more palatable to Jews in Europe and beyond, Zionist thinkers were well aware that there was an indigenous population.

Dr. Musab Samaan, a physician at al-Aqsa Hospital, was detained on February 16, 2024, while treating patients at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. He remains in custody without charges or trial and has not had legal representation at any of his hearings.
During a conversation with him, Dr. Samaan expressed deep despair, saying all he wants is to return to his family. He reported suffering from abscesses across his body caused by a scabies outbreak in prison. Despite repeatedly requesting medical treatment, he says his pleas have been ignored by prison staff.
Dr. Samaan is among dozens of healthcare workers from Gaza who are being unlawfully detained by Israel and subjected to inhumane conditions and ongoing medical neglect.
Over the past two years, detained healthcare workers have reported enduring severe prison conditions, including starvation, medical neglect, violence, and torture. These conditions have led to the deaths of at least 103 detainees, including five healthcare workers from Gaza. As Gaza’s healthcare system continues to collapse under the weight of widespread destruction and critical shortages, Israel continues to detain its physicians without trial, in violation of international law.
Gaza’s healthcare system cannot recover while the physicians responsible for saving lives remain imprisoned. We call for the detention orders against these physicians to be revoked and for their immediate release, so they can reunite with their families and communities and resume their life-saving work.
It is our responsibility to demand their immediate release.

🚨 New study shows the New York Times, the Associated Press, the Washington Post, CNN, Politico, USA Today and Axios collectively used the term "savage" 16 times for the killing of Israelis, but never for the killing of Palestinians.
Likewise, "slaughter" appeared 120 times in relation to the killing of Israelis, but only once for Palestinians.
"Massacre" was used 344 times in relation to Palestinians killing Israelis, but never for Israelis killing Palestinians.
"Barbaric" was used 14 times to describe the killing of Israelis, but zero times in relation to the deaths of Palestinians.
The cable coverage displayed a similar pattern.
MSNBC, presenters and guests used
"massacre" 177 times, "barbaric" 46 times, "savage" 23 times and "slaughter" 102 times in relation to Israeli deaths.
They never called the killing of Palestinians "barbaric" or "savage". In relation to Palestinians, they only used “massacre" eight times and "slaughter" four times.
References to "savagery" and "barbarism" echo the logic of settler colonialism, identifying the uncivilised natives as a problem to be solved.

As Hasan Picker and Cenk Uygur are denied entry to the UK, it’s worth remembering that Isaac Herzog — accused of “direct and public incitement to commit genocide” by the UN Commission of Inquiry report — was welcomed by Keir Starmer on the steps of No10 in September.
BREAKING:
Israel is dropping white phosphorus bombs on civilian areas in the village of Arnoun, Nabatieh, South Lebanon.
These are internationally banned munitions — and Israel is unleashing them against civilians.
Cenk Uygur, a Turkish-American political commentator and founder of the political broadcast channel The Young Turks, was banned from entering the United Kingdom because of his criticism of Israel.
Ma esattamente quand’e che la Ue comincerà a fornire armi e aiuti al Libano aggredito da Israele esattamente come è accaduto all’Ucraina con la Russia? Perché la gente questa cosa l’ha capita benissimo , nonostante la coltre di propaganda.
“The war in Gaza” is actually “the Genocide in Gaza”
“The war in Lebanon” is actually “the Genocide in Lebanon”
“Collateral damage and human shields” is actually “murder children and innocent civilians”
The media uses euphemisms to control the narrative. The media is complicit
Tyre is older than Rome, King Solomon's Temple, Alexander the Great, and Carthage.
Israel is DESTROYING Tyre—a city more than 5,000 years old and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Thanks to supporters like you, AFSC has provided food, water, and other lifesaving aid to more than 1 million displaced Palestinians. But the need keeps growing. Please make a gift to sustain our emergency relief efforts in Gaza and the West Bank. https://t.co/IIctmopnYr
