“This is an opinion column. It usually runs to 1,000 words. Eight hundred of them have been spent naming ordinary things Israel has illegally denied the people of Gaza. I could fill another column and still not exhaust the list.”

We have created a section on our website that maps Zionist money & lobbying networks in 12 countires - pulled directly from government registers, court filings, and public tax disclosures, so you don't have to dig through 20+ separate official sources yourself.

It includes:

1,115 organizations
885+ Million USD tracked
12 countries, 39 datasets, 5,806+ records
2,431+ source citations, from primary government registers
A dedicated tracker for US charities funding West Bank settlements
Fully searchable index
Downloadable in both CSV & JSON for researchers.

It can be accessed here: https://t.co/x2qpWoxoAx

Please reshare this post to help it break out of the algorithm prison.

We'll keep expanding this as more organizatoins/registers get added and verified in the coming weeks.

DR CONGO: Just days after fires killed at least 27 schoolchildren and destroyed hundreds of homes in Bukavu, heavy rain has brought flooding, adding to the misery of people already displaced and living through an ongoing conflict.

Disaster after disaster, while people try to survive a conflict they have no control over.

[Maitreya Bhakal @MaitreyaBhakal]

Boycotts did not do this. Peaceful protests did not do this. Flotillas did not do this. Bothsiding did not do this. Condemning "antisemitism" did not do this. And worst of all - preaching "non-violence" did not do this.

You know what did this? Violence. Violence did this. The most brazen, audacious, unabashed, absolutely shameless levels of violence.

The path to victory runs through the enemy's blood. Whether literal blood, or the more important blood: Capital.

Cut the enemy's arteries, spill his blood, and he'll run away with his tail between his legs.

Sometimes it's best to see and hear the elite death drive for yourself. So we made a short film to go with our new book. I have a feeling the algorithms won't like this one... https://t.co/yklVbEqwud

Every time Palestinians express their dissatisfaction at ceremonial wins that produce no tangible change, there is always a group of well-meaning "allies" who get extremely angry that we are not content with the crumbs this world has to offer us. It happens whenever an op-ed about Palestine written by a POC comes out in the NYTimes, or when an Arab author wins a prize from PEN, or when a liberal Israeli comes to a college campus to tell us about our own oppression. It happens when books (written by people who have benefitted from our subjugation) hit # 1, and, indeed, when an "Israeli-Palestinian" documentary wins an Oscar.

I'm not interested in debating the merit of the film, how well it was shot, its critical acclaim: many of you are missing the point. We do not need, and many of us do not want, our oppressors to validate our stories. In the same way we do not need a liberal Zionist like Yuval to get on stage and speak over us, we do not need a Haaretz or NYTimes journalist to break an "investigation" about the lived experiences of Palestinians that they have been yelling about for decades. This is a form of theater, a spectacle, and a lot of us are growing tired of it.

And yet, if we verbalize this, we are told that we are being "unreasonable," "unfair," "inflammatory," "unforgiving," "too harsh." We are asked "Did you even read/watch/visit __?!" (an insulting question to begin with; we do not need to view these things to understand the premise of it is problematic) and if we say yes, the follow-up is almost always a variation of "This is just pushing people away from the Pro-Palestine cause" and, of course, "Who do you think this is helping?"

But what some of you fail to understand is this is not about how other people feel, this is about our dignity and our refusal to keep accepting the bare minimum. Many of you have become way too comfortable telling Palestinians how we should feel about our own oppressors. What makes people comfortable enough to send us these patronizing messages. Do you not hear yourselves? Do you not read back your replies and think: perhaps this is a time for me to sit, observe, and listen, instead of speaking over the very people I claim to support? Liberal Zionism has become so pervasive in arts and culture, and it becomes clearer every day that the solidarity our allies show is, for the most part, conditional.

We are tired. We do not want awards or shoutouts from the same establishments that manufacture consent to kill us. We just want liberation. Please stop telling us to be content with what we've got and to just "let people be happy." We are not spectacles for your enjoyment. We've tried to appeal to the elite for decades and it hasn't gotten us very far. As always, this will make me the "never satisfied," "always angry" Palestinian. So be it.

Merz' answer to the rise of the neo-Nazi far-right is... deregulation.

It's so banal, so mad, so utterly insufficient... and guaranteed to produce the economic outcomes in which fascism thrives.

The European establishment is lost. It's socialism or barbarism time... again.

[Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸 @jimstewartson]

Imagine you’re a conman. You’ve said for years you have MAGIC BEANS. You’ve shown lots of REALLY BIG normal beans that you made in your lab.

“Almost there!” you say—over and over.

Now, you have *almost* convinced the villagers to give you TWO TRILLION DOLLARS.

But while the beans keep getting bigger. No magic yet…

What do you do? That money is SO CLOSE.

“I know!” you think, “instead of MAGIC beans, lets’s make them KILLER BEANS.”

So you pump up your beans up SUPER BIG and you say: “I’m sorry, but these BEANS ARE GETTING BIGGER ON THEIR OWN!” You threaten people that if they don’t give you the money, the beans may get into the WRONG HANDS. They might get BIGGER THAN THE EARTH!

The villagers, aghast, run to and fro arguing whether the beans are going to kill everyone or make them all rich.

“Well, either way,” the idiots in the village conclude, “We’d better give him the money.”

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

No shade, on toxic ground.

Gaza is now hell on earth where people barely survive untill they "voluntarily migrate".

The intentional destruction of a group through physical/psychological suffering and conditions of life calculated to destroy is genocide.

[Tamara Nassar @TamaraINassar]

Sitting on footage of genocidaires admitting their crimes for three years and then proceeding to air it in a world of glamour and spectacle while protecting the anonymity of the perpetrators is beyond me. It's disgusting and irresponsible and morally indefensible.

How can you call this a ceasefire for Lebanon?

Over two months into the so-called “ceasefire,” AJ+ contributor @_hsenfarhat_ is once again trying to move his family to safety as Israel continues to bomb southern Lebanon.
