You call it graphic content, we call it life under occupation.

In this new paper we calculate the unequal exchange of labour between the global North and global South. The results are quite staggering. You'll want to look at this... 🧵

The rape-defending lynch mob outside a concentration camp where acts of rape and violence have taken place against Palestinians does not represent a "stain" on the state of "Israel" or its legacy; this is exactly what that putrid settler apartheid colony has always been

A new terror has entered the Gaza war: that it is ushering in an age of total immorality. "Israel’s seemingly endless war is forcing the world to become accustomed to an obscene level of death and suffering" - great piece by ⁦@NesrineMalik⁩ https://t.co/EJkvQGHjKp

This is wild. European countries import coffee and cocoa from Africa and then re-export at an average 300% mark-up.

This tactic was widely used by Europeans during the colonial period and it continues to be used today. https://t.co/6wy1fLVE7J

The international community better take the ICJ’s conclusions seriously. Namely, Canada, U.S., and others that have been unconditionally supporting, funding, and arming an apartheid state. The apartheid walls must fall. The illegal occupation must end. Reparations are owed.

“Palestinian lives are so cheap that American journalists will watch a limbless child die screaming on the filthy floor of a bombed-out hospital, and then talk about Joe Biden’s impressive foreign policy record.”

For @lithub, I wrote about Biden and Gaza.

The correct response to an apartheid regime is to ban weapons sales, remove from the olympics and FIFA, end institutional ties, boycott, divest, and sanctions.

"This reduction reflects a troubling denialism regarding the true scale and significance of this issue. It is essential to recognize that these burial sites are crime scenes, and as such, they must be protected, preserved, and properly investigated." https://t.co/TMdLnKFo0u

The World Court has just rejected all Israeli, US & western objections, ruled that the Israeli occupation of Gaza & the West Bank, including East Jerusalem (and all settlements), is entirely unlawful & declares Israel is committing racial segregation/apartheid in the OPT.

[Heidi Matthews @Heidi__Matthews]

I can't overstate the significance of today's ICJ advisory opinion. Major takeaways:
— Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory* is illegal & must end as rapidly as possible
*this includes Gaza
— Israel's conduct amounts to racial segregation & apartheid

[Jake Shields @jakeshieldsajj]

Jewish people came to Palestine as refugees by the thousands

They repaid their host by raping, killing, and stealing their land

To add insult to injury they now try and convince you that Palestine never existed

Israel commited this massacre to foil the ceasefire negotiations. Neither Israel nor its US, UK and German accomplaces want the genocide to stop until the FINAL SOLUTION is achieved.

[Matthew Behrens @MatthewBehren11]

A man who institutionalized international violence, in the form of drone assassinations and deportations to lethal results, reminds us that you can't do that stuff at home....unless of course you are a member of the occupying army.

“There’s no place for violence in American political culture,” said the state which is shipping these heavy ammunitions to a settler colonial state that uses them to eliminate genocide survivors in their tents. (Video:Mawasi “humanitarian area” yesterday)

[Ghassan Abu Sitta, Chair of Conflict Medicine AUB @GhassanAbuSitt1]

The genocide will continue the rest of 2024. Israel wants it to. The US and the new UK government want it to. The German government believes in genocide. Only a regional war will stop it. Like many Israeli atrocities, today's massacre was a litmus test for this strategy.
