Very sad to learn that Mona Khalil died after weeks in the ICU following an Israeli strike that levelled her home in Mansouri. She was a very well-known environmental activist and dedicated her life to saving endangered turtles. She stayed in the south despite Israeli strikes because of her love for the land.

She was a civilian, a renowned figure but Israel targeted her house.

CNN profiled her in 2017 here: https://t.co/ZaMRnuS4zf

“I live every day to the fullest and don’t worry about tomorrow,” she told the newspaper.

Israeli terrorist forces deliberately targeted and murdered Mona Khalil, a renowned conservationist who saved sea turtles near Tyre

Israel is poisoning farmland, destroying villages and killing everyone connected to the land of southern Lebanon

It is called ethnic cleansing

[Joe Kent @joekent16jan19]

For the MOU to hold and result in a lasting peace, we must restrict aid to Israel immediately & make it clear that we will not defend them should Iran opt to strike in response to Israel’s attacks in Lebanon.

Israel has not responded to our verbal & written demands—that is not going to change, unless we change it by taking action.

Israel claims sovereignty & continues to threaten our peace deal, yet they rely on us to bail them out. This is calculated.

We have to respond accordingly and stop this cycle once and for all.

Lead with action: remove their leverage, otherwise they will not take us seriously.

An open SOH & peace in the region have to be our focus. Israel is playing spoiler—we must limit their ability to do so.

This is not a rant by a random genocidal lunatic. It's a public post by the national security minister of the Israeli regime.

The genocidal death cult headquartered in Tel Aviv is a threat to all of humanity. It threatens all humans. Its only interest is permanent war.

I have never heard of a country invading a neighbor and then calling it unfair that their soldiers died in that invasion. I don’t think any other country ever even thought to make that complaint.

On top of that, Israel now wants to retaliate for its soldiers being killed while invading their neighbor.

This is pure madness. Just leave Lebanon.

Ta-Nehisi Coates: “I don’t know how you remain consistent by claiming an anti-apartheid legacy here in the United States of America while enforcing it abroad.”

Coates told Chris Hayes that the Democratic Party cannot continue avoiding the issue of Gaza and Palestine, saying the party is already facing a political and moral reckoning ahead of 2028.

Nobody in Congress would talk about impeachment for illegal bombing. But they’re apparently talking about impeachment for possible peace.

How will you continue your day after hearing that a father in Gaza, trapped beneath the rubble, begged rescuers not to save him?

Not because he had lost hope in life, but because he could hear his daughters’ final breaths beneath the debris. Their tiny hands were holding his in the darkness, as if pleading with him one last time. He was the father who had always been their safe refuge, yet this time he was powerless to pull them from the dust and shattered concrete.

Only his head was visible above the wreckage. He looked into the eyes of the rescuers, his own eyes exhausted by fear and helplessness, and said:
“Leave me… my daughters are here… I do not want to come out alone.”

What heart can bear such a scene? What language can describe the agony of a father who realizes he is losing his daughters one by one, while still holding their hands until they grow cold, unable to offer rescue or even one final embrace?

How will your day go on after knowing this story? How will you sit at your table in peace, or laugh at something trivial, knowing that somewhere there was a father whose last wish was not to survive alone?

And the question that continues to haunt the human conscience remains:

How much pain must the world witness before it finally hears the cry of a single father there?

🚨 BREAKING: Lebanon files UN Security Council complaint accusing I$rael of violating the Chemical Weapons Convention in the south

Lab tests from Aita al-Shaab, Naqoura, and Dhaira confirmed catastrophic levels of Glyphosate—a cancer-linked chemical—in agricultural soil.

Normal farming levels would show 0.5 to 2 mcg/g but tests on soil in South Lebanon show 22,750 mcg/g, 11,000 times above safe levels

It has been labeled by some as a deliberate war crime designed to permanently destroy arable border lands.

Here is our report from the scene filmed in February

When reporting on animals, there are always new horrors to discover. Today's is mouse and rat factory farming, which is done to feed pet snakes and zoo snakes. And it's probably way, way bigger (and worse) than you'd think.

🚨Breaking: The Israeli High Court has rejected an appeal to release Gaza pediatrician Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, allowing Israel to continue detaining him without charge under the “Unlawful Combatants Law,” the Palestinian Center for Prisoners Advocacy said. The group says he remains in solitary confinement at Nafha Prison, denied medical care and basic rights.

Imagine if 8,000 Israeli Jews were missing to this day.

We’d get minute-by-minute updates on their status. We’d know the names of all 8,000 of them.

But because they are Palestinian …. mainstream media is totally indifferent …. they have been completely forgotten.

FTP: LAPD killed her dog. He was wearing his Knicks jersey.
His name was Jameson. A golden doodle. One of the sweetest, most gentle breeds alive.
A neighbor called a noise complaint. That's it.
20+ officers showed up. Then a helicopter. For a noise complaint in an apartment complex.
And they shot Jameson dead. In front of his owner. In front of her child.
No warning. No de-escalation. Nothing.
The media is barely covering this. No headlines. No outrage.
Like it never happened.
If this was your dog... your child watching... how would you feel?
Jameson deserved better. That little boy deserved better. His mama deserved better.

🚨 DISGUSTING: France 24 confirms the Zionist regime just committed another horrific war crime.

They intentionally fired two missiles into a densely populated residential building right on top of a civilian bakery in Beirut with absolutely zero evacuation warning!

Oh wow someone pisses off Israel and is subject to a totally unrelated character assassination on some nickel and dime bullshit no one cared about prior to them upsetting the Israel crybully lobby
