On this day in 1963, civil rights leader and organizer #MedgarEvers was assassinated by a white supremacist in the driveway of his home. We remember his legacy and honor his family, including his wife, #MyrlieEversWilliams, who was a dear friend of our founder, #CorettaScottKing.

Powerful essay by Senator @ChrisVanHollen about the need for Democrats to rethink their Middle East policy and insist on a Palestinian state, for moral and strategic reasons alike. https://t.co/1pSI6mit3t
Asked if he thinks Israel committed genocide in Gaza, Obama accuses the questioner of not following the rules, then says “there are disasters and catastrophes everywhere”
Obama is a historically inconsequential former president who believes in nothing but his own celebrity
Oakland's camouflaged right wing was just praising and circulating his insults to Pam Price. The bay area is rife with shitty right wingers like Swalwell who exist to accommodate wealth, white supremacy and state violence and pretend to be on the left
In the Question of Palestine, Edward Said starts his introduction quoting an interview "that not a single U.S. newspaper carried."
General Gur, Israeli Army, was asked about the 1978 🇮🇱invasion of Lebanon and bombing people without distinction. His answer? "we do it" since 1948.
Terrorism legally defined: "directed, lawless violence against civilians or non-military property to intimidate societies for political goals." By that definition, is there a bigger terrorist state in the world today than Israel?
An extremist group in Washington, DC has claimed credit for the terrorist attack on the Iranian bridge, promising further attacks on civilian infrastructure if its demands aren't met
Professor John Mearsheimer : "if there were Nuremberg trials right where the Israelis and the Americans were brought before the court, President Trump along with President Netanyahu and many of their advisors would be hanged"
They raped a man.
They gang-raped him.
They raped him so brutally that he had to be hospitalized.
Doctors documented the injuries.
The video of the assault was leaked.
Now the rapists are free.
This is not just unlawful and immoral. It is sick!

"The IDF is the worst terrorist organisation in the region. let's get real. The United States of America is arguably the worst terrorist organisation in the world. If you want to look over the last 25 years, how many innocent civilians we’ve slaughtered." - Dave Smith.
BREAKING:
Spain’s MEP Irene Montero:
“Because no one stopped the genocide in Gaza, the United States and Israel are now targeting Venezuela and Iran.”
“We must isolate the U.S. and Israel now, so they can no longer spread terror across the globe.”

Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.
Spain’s Ione Belarra:
“First they went after Palestine-Lebanon-Syria-Yemen, then after Venezuela and Cuba, now once again after Iran.”
“The US and Israel are humanity’s greatest threat.”
