“They brought me here to kill me. I don't see myself surviving. This is the end.”

These are the words of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, the paediatrician who ran Gaza's last children's hospital. He has been held without charge by Israel for over 18 months, alongside at least 13 other Palestinian doctors from Gaza.

His lawyers say he has been held in solitary confinement, beaten, starved, and denied medical care. He is now in life-threatening danger and requires urgent hospitalisation.

Silence is complicity. @YvetteCooperMP must demand his immediate release and urgent medical treatment NOW.

Pictures of Gold Dancer show he had his mouth strapped shut and his tongue tied to his lower jaw. He was being whipped and was pushed to keep racing after hitting a fence really hard (which probably fractured a vertebrae and the continued riding caused complete spinal collapse)

If McGregor spent more time getting into a position to receive a pass rather than standing pointing at the obvious one, he’d be much more effective

[C @_CM_67_]

Right before Yang goes on that run and scores a brilliant goal here we have Callum McGregor telling him to pass back the way 😂

This mentality has been an absolute disease within this club and squad for years now

Racial supremacy allows one race to do this to another every single day for 23 months and wanting more blood.

Cowardice is knowing this and not saying anything for fear of being called 'antisemitic'

'The same corporations cashing in on the Gaza genocide stand to benefit from the more permissive environment – legally and militarily – created by Israel for future wars, ones where massacred civilians count only as “incidental deaths”.

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

Israel is fully integrating its Gaza 'food aid hubs' into the genocide:

It is entirely unsurprising that Israel has yet again been caught out in a lie – a lie that the BBC once again spread far and wide on its news services.

Israel claimed that it had not fired at starving Palestinians queueing on Sunday morning to get food from one of its highly militarised "aid distribution hubs" – a system Israel imposed on Gaza in place of a long-established and successful aid network run by the United Nations.

More than 30 Palestinians are known to have been killed and dozens more injured in the weekend incident.

Israel blamed Hamas fighters for shooting Palestinian civilians, saying they were trying to stop the crowds from taking food boxes. the Israeli military dished up a video, taken by one of its drones, as supposed proof.

The BBC broadcast that video on its main shows, and then did one of its standard "Israel said, the Palestinians said. Who can really know the truth?" reports of the incident.

The BBC should never have taken Israel's disinformation seriously – not least because Israeli claims are always shown to be lies when subjected to any serious independent scrutiny. The default position should be that Israel is lying until it can demonstrate convincingly that it is not.

Doctors treating the dead and wounded immediately pointed out that their injuries were consistent with Israeli gunfire. The victims had single shots to the head or chest, in line with targeting by Israeli snipers. Others suffered shrapnel wounds from tank shells. Hamas has no tanks.

Now expert analysis of the video itself – paradoxically confirmed by BBC Verify – shows that the footage was filmed in Khan Younis, far from Rafah, where the Palestinians aid seekers were killed. It is also apparent from the shadows that the video was taken in the evening, not in the morning when the Palestinians in Rafah were shot.

Despite this, the BBC still writes: “The circumstances of this strike are unclear.”

No, it is entirely clear that the Israeli army disseminated lies, and that the BBC lapped up those lies and spread them to its audiences via its main news shows, before tentatively retracting the lies quietly on a live feed on its website.

The reality is that the video doesn't show Hamas fighters shooting Palestinians to stop them getting aid. Rather it shows a criminal Palestinian gang – of the kind Israel has been cultivating and allying with – looting aid so that it can be sold back to Palestinians on the open market, where prices have been massively inflated by Israel's blockade on food.

There are no police in Gaza maintaining law and order because Israel kills any Palestinian seen wearing a police uniform.

It was for these very reasons that international aid organisations refused to take part in Israel's scheme. They understood it was never about distributing humanitarian aid because the UN was best placed to do that.

It was not even chiefly about weaponising aid to lure Palestinians into what are effectively Israeli military bases so that soldiers can use biometric data to snatch any Palestinians they want, disappearing them into Israel’s torture camps, as they have been doing.

Rather it is about giving the appearance of providing food – most of it useless because it is dried staples that need cooking, when there is almost no water or fuel available – while continuing to starve the vast majority of Palestinians. And it is about using the aid hubs as another front for killing Palestinians.

In other words, after taking the aid system out of the UN's hands, Israel is successfully enfolding the so-called "humanitarian effort" into its genocide.

If that sounds too cynical, mark this. Israel again shot at crowds gathering on Tuesday morning to get aid from one of its “distribution hubs”, killing at least 27 Palestinians and wounding more than 180.

Several witnesses say there was no aid available when they arrived.

There is no way to be too cynical about what Israel is doing. Israel is utterly committed to its genocide – and a genocidal state has no red lines.

No frontpage, no outrage, no sympathy, no backstory.

Just another dead child, ripped in half by Israel with the blessing of the US, UK and Europe.

A lie about burned Israeli babies set the world ablaze with vengeance. Now, thousands of Palestinian babies lie charred and burned alive in silence.

The world that wept for a myth turns its eyes from the massacre it enabled.
A cruel, hypocritical world.

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

Netanyahu just passed through European borders and airspace, arriving in Washington on the heels of some of the most unspeakable horrors out of Gaza – shredded, actually beheaded children, a journalist burned alive in his tent, the execution of 14 rescue workers, all on camera.

A depraved Western leadership has clearly concluded Gaza must be sacrificed to preserve a so-called "Jewish state," along with all the influence it brings to bear on them.

[Dystopian Times @DystopianTimes_]

If Israel can stop paramedics & fire fighters, execute them one by one, throw them in a mass grave, bury their vehicles & later lie that the vehicles were unmarked, unlit & driving suspiciously towards them in an evacuation zone, you should assume they're lying about everything

[حسام شبات @HossamShabat]

This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :

“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.

By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.

I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”

— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

The BBC News at Ten covered Netanyahu's visit to the White House at length and yet didn't mention once that he's wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes.

How's that possible? Why does the BBC need to constantly tell us Hamas is considered a terrorist organisation by the UK government, but thinks Netanyahu being a fugitive from international justice is a far less important descriptor.
