A city of 10 million is burning creating toxic fumes. It is raining oil. The water is too acidic to drink or bathe in. This is an ecological and humanitarian disaster. These are war crimes. Impeach now
please recognize your privilege today if you are not living through the atrocities in the middle east, and spread awareness as their voices are being silenced. its always fuck israel, fuck trump, free palestine and everything in between.
“I don’t want to be dragged into politics” we are FUCKING LUCKY AND PRIVILEGED that we even have a CHOICE IN THIS, that we have a CHOICE to turn our phones off and ignore the state of the world. how tone deaf can you fucking be???? don’t EVER fucking say that.
🚨BREAKING: Law enforcement threatened to kill an unarmed 17-year-old as he was leaving an anti-ICE protest in Indianapolis.
In the video, police officers stop a 17-year-old and order him out of his car.
He calmly asks why.
Instead of answering, an officer opens the car door, grabs his arm, and says:
“I will fucking kill you.”
An armed officer told an unarmed child he would kill him… with zero justification.
The teen looks visibly shocked and gets out of the car.
Officers then shove him against the vehicle and begin searching him.
After threatening his life, the officer tries to justify it by saying,
“He was reaching for a gun.”
The teen responds, “Who was reaching for a gun?!?”
They find no gun… because he never had a gun, and never reached for anything.
This police officer illegally threatened to use lethal force against a minor who committed no crime.
Which is exactly what happens when a government excuses, defends, and normalizes law enforcement aggression.
When officers know they won’t be held accountable, the threats get louder, the lies get sloppier, and the violence escalates.
If 18 Israelis were killed today, it would be treated as a civilizational crisis and Western governments would rush to condemn it.
But Israel killing 18 Palestinians during a so called ceasefire? Total silence.
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. https://t.co/eYkzrxoGwR
Israel is celebrated for a record number of kidney donors in one place polishing its global image while, at the same time, Palestinian bodies have been returned with organs reportedly missing, a reality documented by human rights groups and largely ignored by global media.
