UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory:

#Israel has perpetrated a concerted policy to destroy #Gaza’s healthcare system as part of a broader assault on Gaza, committing war crimes and the crime against humanity of extermination.

@PTAJones Thanks very much for reading!

You'll undoubtedly know it by now, but I think about this Didi Hamann story on Sven very often. Magnificent.

Replacement building here definitively worse than what it replaces. Dumb as hell.

[Jon Silver @InvisibleMapper]

This is what Labour leaders in Manchester pursued for 20 yrs + it’s caused a massive housing crisis + persistent inequality + unsustainable built environment

Don’t copy the ‘Manchester Model’ remake our cities based on co-operative / community wealth not corporate profit

BREAKING: This brilliant speech yesterday by a Columbia professor on the cowardice of the university administration in calling in police to arrest students will be cited throughout history -– and will inspire generations of students for decades to come.

Columbia still on lockdown two days later.⤵️

Here are some period Nanban (word means Southern Barbarian) screens depicting Portuguese trading vessels in 16thC Japan. Please don’t forget that this kind of visual evidence also frames how we see what constitutes colonialism/imperialism! Nanban screens were often export goods.

[Noreen Masud @NoreenMasud]

students are sadder and sadder, more and more anxious, in significant part because they are being given shiny buildings instead of what they need: time and attention from non-burnt-out older human adults

@AnnetteBullen Brill! Thanks Annette!

“If the same methods are used by the Israeli army, then it will be a bloodbath on an even worse scale than what we've seen so far.”

There is “no answer from Israel” as to where displaced people in Gaza will go, says Sir Vincent Fean.

Just how bad is Gaza? A study just concluded the "civilian proportion of deaths is HIGHER THAN THAT IN ALL WORLD CONFLICTS IN 20TH CENTURY"

And that's 20TH CENTURY, you know, the one with both world wars.

The horror we're seeing is truly unprecedented.

The Guardian confirms @972mag investigation that the IDF uses AI to generate bombing targets in Gaza at an unprecedented rate, powering a “mass assassination factory” in which the “emphasis is on quantity and not on quality”.

It's probably the most dystopian revelation of the war so far. All these women and children killed are literally selected as targets by machine.
