Dave Chappelle: "The fear I have that I need you to protect me from is co-option. What if they make me say the things they want me to say? So just in case we need a code. If I say it you know they got me, and don't listen to nothing I say after. The code is: I stand with Israel."
🎥 Watch | “It wasn’t really a negotiation. It was a negotiation within the Israeli team. It was a negotiation within the American team. But it wasn’t a negotiation between Israelis and Palestinians. It was presentation of constantly changing proposals based on Israel’s estimate of what the Palestinians couldn’t say no to. An estimate that proved wrong time and time again.”
Robert Malley, at the Doha Forum in Qatar, details how the U.S. abandoned real mediation and became a “messenger” for Israeli proposals at Camp David II, contributing to the talks’ failure.

@mboudry And the sentence just before "For any European during the nineteenth century—and I think one can say this almost without qualification—Orientalism was such a system of truths, truths in Nietzsche's sense of the word" He is talking about the 19th century...
The great Michael D., Ireland's humanist President, hit the nail on the head: A UN Peace Keeping and Peace Enforcing Task Force is the only way Israel's genocide of Palestinians can end. https://t.co/eN5KYYST6a
Wat bezielt mensen eigenlijk wanneer ze de woorden van @FranceskAlbs zodanig uit de context rukken dat ze bijna het tegendeel lijkt te beweren dan wat ze in werkelijkheid zei?
Wie het argument verliest, rest enkel nog de leugen.
Luister vooral naar wat Albanese écht zei:
📝 Bertrand Russell
A few days before his death, 55 years ago, the brilliant mathematician and philosopher Bertrand Russell left this last message on Israel and Palestine.
Israeli hostage negotiator, Gershon Baskin told Piers Morgan that his government is committing war crimes in Gaza and Hamas told him twice in writing that they will release the hostages and a commitment to end the war in August last year.
Allow me to address the Israeli people.
Your government wants you to believe that the whole world is conspiring against you, that the Palestinian people are terrorists, that the UN is filled with terrorist and terrorist supporters, that your closest allies are your enemies.
This most radical Israeli government and its Foreign Minister are calling for “de radicalization” of the Palestinian society as a whole, calling them “human animals” and “children of darkness”.
They want you to believe that your survival depends on your ability to continuously wage wars, including against a defenseless civilian population half of whom are children, on their erasure.
The Israeli people need to decide if this is what they want their government and military doing.
These atrocities that the whole world is watching and that your government is hoping you will filter out, deny or justify.
In the midst of this genocide we are telling you: we choose peace and appeal to you to do the same.
We do it for our children and our people. You should do it for your children and your loved ones.
Enough bloodshed. Enough wars. Enough suffering.
If not for the Palestinian people’s sake, for your own, if not in the name of humanity, in the name of self-preservation.
The solution is ending this illegal occupation and ending this disastrous conflict;
it is the realization of the independence and sovereignty of the Palestinian state, not its destruction;
it is the fulfillment of our rights, not their continued denial;
it is respect for international law, not its trampling;
it is the implementation of the two-State
solution, not a one state reality with Palestinians condemned to genocide, ethnic cleansing or apartheid.
Over the last 22 months, Israel has been deliberately and systematically destroying Palestinian society in Gaza. Government policymakers and military commanders have repeatedly declared their objective is to annihilate the people of Gaza, and the horrific result can be seen on the ground. This is Genocide.
Spurred on by incitement from leading Israeli politicians, the genocide is being carried out through practices aimed at tearing Palestinian society in Gaza apart and preventing any possibility of future recovery.
These tactics include, but are not limited to - Killing and serious and mental harm:
As of July 2025, at least 58,000 people have been killed as a direct result of Israel’s military assault on the Gaza Strip. Research indicates this is a conservative estimate, and that the actual numbers are likely higher. Israel has killed civilians through bombing crowded areas; demolishing buildings with the residents inside; shooting at civilians in designated safe zones; shooting at groups waiting for water, food or medical evacuation; bombing IDP camps, and more.
Destruction of living conditions:
Israel is deliberately creating catastrophic living conditions in Gaza. Starvation has become an explicit method of warfare, carried out through blocking humanitarian aid, destroying food-related infrastructure and bombing of distribution centers. Nearly all of the Strip’s residents are suffering severe hunger.
At the same time, Israel has decimated Gaza’s healthcare system through repeatedly bombing hospitals, medical centers and staff, and preventing the entry of life-saving equipment. It has destroyed electricity and water infrastructure and wiped out entire cities. The latest estimate is that 92% of residential buildings, and 69% of all buildings, have been severely damaged.
Forced displacement:
Approximately 90% of Gaza’s residents – many of whom are Nakba refugees and their descendants – have been forcibly displaced many times under blockade and airstrikes. Since the military ordered the evacuation of northern Gaza, Israel has prevented their return by implementing massive destruction, blockade, cutting areas off from each other, firing at people who stay behind, and more. Starvation and taking control of humanitarian aid are also being used to promote the policy of forced displacement. Government and military officials explicitly declared ethnic cleansing a formal objective of the war, alongside efforts to promote the transfer of the population to other countries.
Social, political and cultural destruction:
Israel’s onslaught on Palestinian society in Gaza is also aimed at tearing apart the fabric of civilian life. Local government institutions have been destroyed, creating a power vacuum that has enabled the rise of armed gangs and internal violence amid unprecedented famine.
The family structure has collapsed, too, with countless women widowed, children orphaned, and thousands cut off from missing or detained relatives. The education system, cultural institutions and heritage sites have been destroyed, and the press violently silenced with more than 160 journalists killed.
Assault on the Palestinian refugee status:
For decades, their refugee status has been central to the collective identity of Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, and the diaspora. Israel has consistently worked to undermine this status by denying Palestinians the right of return, destroying refugee camps, and working against institutions that protect and assist refugees.
Incitement and dehumanization:
Israeli leaders are promoting rhetoric that strips Palestinians of their humanity, portrays the entire population of Gaza as an enemy to wipe out, and lends emotional and political legitimacy to indiscriminate killing. The Israeli media is reinforcing this by concealing the death toll, broadcasting military propaganda, and rejecting any discussion of Palestinian rights. Consequently, the Israeli public does not see killing, expulsion and starvation as atrocities, but as a necessity.
The assault on the Gaza Strip is not just another violent confrontation or moral failure. It is the systematic implementation of a policy of killing civilians en masse, destroying basic living conditions, forcibly displacing residents, dismantling civil institutions, erasing collective identity, and totally dehumanizing the Palestinian people of Gaza. When these practices are carried out together, openly and over many months, the conclusion is clear.
This is genocide and it is happening now. We must end it.
Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
It sounds inconceivable. But it’s the truth.
Israel is taking deliberate, coordinated action to destroy the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Explicit statements by Israeli officials, combined with a consistent policy of destructive attacks and other practices of annihilation, prove beyond a doubt that Israel’s target is the entire population of Gaza.
Entire cities razed to the ground; medical, educational, religious and cultural infrastructure systematically destroyed; 2 million Palestinians forcibly displaced with the aim of expelling them from Gaza; and, of course, mass starvation and killing - all this amounts to an explicit attempt to destroy the population of Gaza and impose living conditions so catastrophic that Palestinian society cannot continue to exist there.
That is the exact definition of genocide.
The report we are releasing today is a warning: The ideology driving the Israeli regime is not confined to Gaza.
The same regime, the same army, the same leaders and the same commanders are implementing extremely violent practices against Palestinians in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and within Israel. We are already witnessing the spillover of practices Israel is using in Gaza to other areas - on a different scale, but guided by the same logic. In the West Bank, this is taking the form of airstrikes, demolition of refugee camps, mass evictions, and the deliberate destruction of Palestinian economy and society.
No Palestinian who lives under the genocidal Israeli regime is safe.
There is no justification for genocide – not “self-defense”, not “security”, and not the heinous acts committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023, which triggered profound existential fear among Israelis.
The international community has not only failed in its duty to stop the atrocities, but the leaders of the Western world, particularly the United States and Europe, also share responsibility by providing support that enables Israel’s acts of destruction. It is the duty of the international community to stop the genocide Israel is carrying out in Gaza.
On social media, we are seeing footage of people buried under bombed-out buildings, displaced persons’ camps on fire, children starving, people desperate for water, and hospitals left unable to treat the injured and the sick.
As a human rights organization it is our duty and responsibility to say the truth: Genocide is happening, right here and right now.
This is our genocide, and we need to stop it.
