Gaza will get worse if Trump wins. It will also get worse if Harris wins. Know how I know? Because it's been getting worse and worse in Gaza for a whole year, and both Trump and Harris have pledged to continue unconditionally supporting the state that's making it worse and worse.
Israel accused Palestinians of burning babies alive so they could burn Palestinian babies alive
Israel accused Palestinians of beheading babies so they could behead Palestinian babies
Israel accused Palestinians of systematically raping Israelis so they could systemically rape Palestinians
Every single claim the Western media used to manufacture consent for genocide was not only false — it is also true of those committing the very genocide they support, those they gleefully platform.
And yet none of this is on those same media circuits. There’s only one possible cause: outright complicity in a racist genocide.
This is Nazi-level shit being carried out by @BBCWorld@SkyNews@CNN@nytimes@itvnews@guardian@washingtonpost@WSJ — the worst crimes of mankind taking place in the back room offices of the ruling political-journalist class in our own cities.
Fuck this bullshit Western-led society and its untenable position of being rules-based. It is, without doubt, the greatest impediment to a peaceful world.
We have to break this criminal system and build better.
Abolish Zionism. Abolish Israel. Abolish the settler state. Israel doesn’t have the right to exist. Israel doesn’t need to exist. Jewish safety is not predicated on the existence of a genocidal ethno-religious supremacist state. Begin to imagine life beyond Israeli domination.

As a Gazan with 15 years of research on Hamas under my belt, I address the question: Can Hamas be eliminated? The straightforward answer is no. The methods Israel is using are unlikely to completely dismantle Hamas. Recent polls suggest a surge in support for Hamas in both Gaza and the West Bank, but this portrayal warrants skepticism and calrifications. 1/12
We Jews wonder why the world did nothing as the Nazis put us into concentration camps. Well there were not photos of the true conditions of the concentration camps in 1941, let alone photos every day. Every hour of every day. Livestreams. Yet people talk about college campuses.
Indeed, the combined efforts of Israel and the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank since 2007 have yet to succeed in eliminating either its military, political, or social presence. FYI it is now 2023.
Lost in the news shuffle: Israel bombed Gaza’s last operational flour mill yesterday, in line with its current starvation policy and consistent with 15 years of systematically targeting Gaza’s productive sectors. Let that sink in.
97% of Gaza's water was unsafe to drink even before the most recent Israeli military assault, which has devastated water infrastructure. Now, a dire situation has become catastrophic.
Water is life. The denial & destruction of it is genocide.

Shame on you @MorningEdition@NPRinskeep for giving a platform to a fascist's genocidal lies and not hold him accountable for the campaign of death he is leading.
People in Gaza want a ceasefire and are not getting our humanitarian relief. If your capacity right now is only for donating, I suggest one of the following: 🧵
A grave and harrowing crisis is unfolding in the South Hebron Hills, demanding the utmost urgency and gravity. Settlers, masquerading as a military force, have launched a barbaric assault on Susyiah village. 1/
