Read this powerful and shilling investigation by Zina Qabbani for @UntoldMag about yet another sadistic genocidal practice in Gaza, this time on Google Earth and its latest update.

Read Samanth Subramanian's powerful words on @globalvoices about Israel's latest journalist massacre & the murder of Anas al-Sharif, one more war crime to be added to an endless list of depraved genocidal violence, and the complicity of Western journalism

The latest attack on the Hebron seed facility and before it the Al Qarara seed bank in Gaza, reinforces that pattern: eradicating the ecological and generational links between Palestinians and their land. Part of a broader strategy of cultural genocide, ecocide, and epistemicide
My latest for @globalvoices:
Israel’s recent demolition of @UAWC1986’s last seed bank in Hebron, Palestine, is not just destruction, it’s a colonial act of erasure.

From the buffalo slaughter by US colonizers to force dependence and starvation upon the native populations, to the destruction of Iraq’s seed bank by the US invasion and later the post-invasion seed laws, agriculture has long been weaponized to dominate.
#Lebanon 🇱🇧 Ziad Rahbani’s passing silences a voice of hope and critique shaped by conflict. Through music and satire, he challenged injustice and inspired visions of a freer future.

I tried to mourn Ziad Rahbani in this obituary on @globalvoices, writing from thousands of kilometers away from the popular funeral held on the street I grew up in and still love. https://t.co/bZJ99BK1So
Mourning Ziad Rahbani feels like mourning an entire era.
An era we thought was horrible, only to realize that what’s coming is even more horrifying.
I didn’t know Ziad personally, but his loss hits hard, like the loss of a family member.
He was that for many of us who grew up with his music, words, and humor. It hits even harder because it comes at this moment in history, as everything around us shatters, as horror is normalized, and as the promise of a bleak, apocalyptic future is confirmed daily.
If you haven't yet, do read @reemalmasri 's brilliant and meticulous investigation into the complicity of Silicon Valley in the Israel's ongoing genocide and apartheid in Palestine on @UntoldMag
