Awkward day to be a racist, ain’t it.

American actor Mark Ruffalo says
I have cut ties with celebrities who support the killing of children in Palestine
“I do not want to talk to them anymore”
🚨🇲🇽 President Sheinbaum TURNED DOWN her World Cup ticket over the ridiculous prices, choosing to gift it away and watch Mexico's victory with the people at a free local screening instead.
The Azteca is a proper football stadium. The whole tournament should've been in Mexico, but that wouldn't earn FIFA the money they want. No one would have visa issues. Everyone would be welcomed with grace. A proper world cup atmosphere.
Israeli historian @bartov_omer speaking on prime-time TV in Italy:
“[Israel is] a country that is unwilling to face the truth, and that brings us to the issue of genocide... When genocide occurs, the entire society of the country perpetrating it becomes complicit in that genocide.
Therefore, we must ask ourselves: in the case of Israel, where there is a conscript army made up of the sons and daughters of most Israeli citizens, what does it mean for a country to be involved in these activities? It means that everyone becomes part of this event: those who carry it out, those who deny it, and those who do nothing to stop it...
In the case of Israel, this is a country going through a profound phase of denial...
When people say that criticism of Israel, criticism of Zionism, or even the rejection of Zionism is antisemitism, frankly, that is nonsense. It concerns the rejection of a specific ideology that is no longer sustainable.”

The sample size is small, but it’s been nice to see him pitch well in big situations.
I'm sorry, call me a prick, but I wont stop talking about Arsenal sacking their kit manager of over a decade for sharing pro-palestine posts, only to then go hire an Israeli sponsor. Just wrong.

‘No Music for Genocide’
“Massive Attack, which has boycotted performing in Israel since 1999, signed on to an initiative called No Music for Genocide, where more than 400 artists and labels blocked their music from streaming services in Israel.” https://t.co/6rSLHaJjzN
🇮🇪 A football commentator in Australia would be hung and quartered for daring this. US, UK and many other nations too. All power to you Richard Sadlier 💚 #FreePalestine#BDS 🇵🇸
Israeli President Herzog got a personal tour of ASIO headquarters. Asked if they could name another foreign leader ever given that access, ASIO drew a blank.
