All I want for Christmas is peace & safety for all children, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, class, or religion. Ceasefire now.
This shouldn’t be controversial. 🇵🇸✌🏼

All 12 White Sox runs tonight have been driven in by players who weren’t in the majors at the start of last season.

This can happen on most nights, but when it’s 12 runs, it stands out.

“They had destroyed the school. They had destroyed that village. And we were just looking at it. And these hoodlums come in with machine guns, an M4, an American-made machine gun, and they detain us. They block off the road. And then they call the IDF, and the IDF is on their side, not on the side of the Americans.”

⚡️ Armed Israeli settlers blocked Rep. Ro Khanna from leaving Khirbet Zanuta in the occupied West Bank for 90 minutes as Israeli troops stood by and later blocked the road, the New York Times reports citing footage shared by the congressman and his team.

Khanna was on a three-day, Palestinian-led tour of the West Bank, meeting Palestinian families, local officials and business owners and visiting communities subjected to settler violence, displacement and intrusive Israeli restrictions.

“One of the things it’s made me realize is how hard a two-state solution is going be in practice, that it’s going require the removal of a lot of violent settlers,” he told the New York Times.

Khanna also said the racism was unmistakable: “In Palestine, I felt first as someone who was brown,” he said. “We really saw the apartheidlike conditions, the inequality.”

For those who want to see what American healthcare workers saw while volunteering in Gaza, a new documentary called American Doctor featuring Drs. Thaer Ahmad, Mark Perlmutter, and me will be in theaters in August.

🇵🇸 🇫🇷 France has joined international calls for Israel to release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital held without charge since December 2024, citing “extremely worrying information about his state of health,” foreign ministry spokesman Pascal Confavreux said, per Al Jazeera.

The appeal follows warnings from Physicians for Human Rights Israel that Abu Safiya’s life is in immediate danger: his lawyer, who visited him last week at the underground Rakefet facility, said he arrived shackled and so badly injured he was barely recognizable, and reported being beaten daily. “They brought me here to kill me,” Abu Safiya told him.

Confavreux also said the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire should begin and the Israeli army should withdraw from the territory.

Yesterday the UN commission of inquiry published a report detailing how Israel deliberately targets & kills Palestinian children

[UN Human Rights Council Investigative Bodies @uninvhrc]

Israeli forces have killed over 20,000 children & injured 44,000 more since 7 Oct. 2023, Srinivasan Muralidhar, chair of the @UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory & Israel, told reporters today. #HRC62

More on their new report ➡️ https://t.co/gK2KhtlgFb

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

This report is haunting even for someone who has documented the most horrific aspects of this genocide - which too many world leaders pretend not to see.

I commend the Commission of Inquiry for its effort to bring about accountability and make the truth accessible.

[Reuters @Reuters]

Israeli authorities and security forces deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in Gaza, and war crimes in the occupied West Bank, an independent UN inquiry said https://t.co/61poVhRzmR

DOUBLE-TAP strike kills a STUDENT.

She was on her way to take her final exams.

18-year-old Raghad Ashour, a displaced student from Beit Hanoun and daughter of a father previously killed by Israel, was traveling to her general secondary education examination in Gaza City when an Israeli drone struck her vehicle, killing her.

As people gathered around the targeted vehicle, Israel carried out a SECOND strike on the same location, wounding at least 5 others in a DOUBLE-TAP attack.

As Israel’s Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir also oversees the Israel Prison Service, which Israeli human rights group B’Tselem has described as a “network of torture camps” and where U.N. experts have documented systematic torture and sexual violence carried out against Palestinian detainees.

Today is Day 987 since October 7, 2023. For 2 years, 8 months, and 14 days, Israel has blocked the International Committee of the Red Cross from visiting and speaking with Palestinian detainees held in Israeli custody.

🩸It is Day 986 since October 7, 2023.

For 2 years, 8 months, and 13 days, Israel has not allowed the Red Cross to visit Palestinians held in its prisons and detention centers, where the UN and multiple human rights organizations have documented systematic torture, sexual violence, rape, medical neglect, beatings, and other forms of abuse.
