ACLU Releases Video of ICE Agent Slashing Observers’ Tire
ICE agents tailed, boxed in, and then slashed the tire of observers’ vehicle before driving away
This footage is horrifying. And to think that this is how people have been living for more than a year since the “ceasefire”, without a single brick for reconstruction allowed in.
“If those Palestinians hadn’t come and started throwing rocks, I probably would not have survived,” veteran Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine told Jasper Nathaniel after she was brutally beaten by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank, according to Nathaniel.
Speaking to Ben Rhodes on Pod Save the World, Nathaniel recounted the details of the October 16 attack on Palestinian olive harvesters, how Palestinian villagers risked their lives to rescue Levine, and how Israeli soldiers subsequently shot a Palestinian man and blocked paramedics.
“Do Palestinians have a right to defend themselves through armed struggle, if that’s what it takes?” Nathaniel asked.
“And if not, do you suggest they lay down and die and let their village get overrun and let Heidi Levine get killed and accept the fate that the settlers have in mind for them, which they will openly tell you is to wipe them off the map?”

one time i showed casablanca to a friend for the first time, and when it was over, he said it was good, but it was distracting how many cliches they used. “i think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.” lines like that.
anyway this tweet reminds me of this
They'll call a baby being shot in his mother's car in a Walmart parking lot by a cop "justified", for the same reason they call the lynching of Black people "suicides", and ICE shooting and running over Black and Latin people self-defense...Jim Crow never ended in America.
As Jasper urged Heidi to run, she gasped “I can’t, let me die.” I may have, too, if I was injured like this at 63.
With Jasper’s help she got to Palestinian rescuers. One put this Jewish mother on his back & carried her. I never want to hear “try being Jewish in Ramallah” again.
Every winter I think about Khaleel and what he was trying to do to help unhoused and vulnerable citizens. Instead of hiring him as a consultant and contractor, the city wasted taxpayers' money suing him for violating ByLaws, and of course paid a white man to copy Khaleel's idea.
I am BEGGING YOU PEOPLE! Stop comparing everything to Korra S1!!
It’s like comparing The Mona Lisa to any other painting. Comparing Korra Season 1 isn’t even fair to ATTACK ON TITAN! Korra S1 had 15,000 drawings per episode! THIS SEASON LOOKS UNIQUELY GOOD!! You have no idea!
The man who was shot by ice in nyc yesterday could have a rap sheet a mile long and I would still be like, “hey maybe ICE shouldn’t pull up on someone in a hi-vis vest with a long gun and shoot a bunch of bullets into a car with a child inside of it.”
If you’re a supporter of Zohran you should be kissing the feet of these protestors. Zohran probably thanks his lucky stars there’s vocal critics who think he’s insufficiently anti-zionist because it proves his moderate bonafides to the general populace. For people obsessed with a “pragmatic political theory of change” so many of you are bad at politicking.
