Proportionate? Iran's not trying to be proportionate. Proportionate would be for Iran to kill Trump. Kill his entire cabinet. Kill his opposition. Bomb the shit out of New York and Los Angeles. Bomb a school full of American kids. Bomb some hospitals. That would be proportionate.

Here’s a fresh and striking take on the situation by Daniel Levy

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Unlike Iran's attack on Israel, which killed no-one, there won't be wall to wall outrage over the Israeli killing of 11 Palestinian kids, as there's been a lack of outrage over over 14,000 kids being slaughtered.

Why?

Because Palestinian life is considered worthless.

European savagery and lawlessness must be confronted in every forum. They have been terrorizing the planet for 500 years in the name of “civilization.”

BREAKING: The Intercept went back to check one of the main sources used by the New York Times' Anat Schwartz, Adam Sella and Jeffrey Gettleman in their "mass rape" hoax, and have shown it to have been a fraud. Again, the biggest hoax in NYT history since Judith Miller

Without Congo there will be no iPhones. Cobalt mining for Big Tech like Apple is driving child labor and deaths in the Congo and the world is silent.

The use of forced labor is getting popular in Congo via arms group who are sponsored by several multinational companies to control several mines.

You won’t learn in school that between 1803 and 1830, the British wiped the entire black population of aborigine Tasmania an island located about 200 miles off the southeast coast of Australia.

His parents were killed in front of him.

The IDF threw a grenade at this 5 year old Palestinian child with cerebral palsy, leaving a fragment lodged in his brain.

Those refusing to condemn these crimes don't see Palestinians as humans.

Whether you care about Palestinian lives or not, the fact that the U.S., UK & several other western governments INSTANTLY attacked UNRWA on
the orders of a genocidal foreign government (based on bogus claims) should make you very worried about your own democracy. #FreeYourself

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

Channel 4, after reviewing Israel’s dossier against UNRWA says it "provides no evidence to support its claim that UNRWA staff were involved in [Oct 7th]".

This is a scandal of extraordinary gravity because it means that the countries that have cut funding to UNRWA did so on the basis of no tangible evidence.

Let's be clear: they decided to cut the funds of the main source of humanitarian aid (a UN agency!) to a people the ICJ said was plausibly being genocided based on mere unproven allegations from their tormentors.

It's frankly shocking beyond words. Even if there had been unequivocal evidence a small number of UNRWA staff (we were talking 0.04% of their staff) were involved in Oct 7th it'd still have been absolutely irresponsible to cut their funding, because you can't collectively punish an entire people for the actions of a few. Just today 3 children starved to death in Gaza: how did they deserve this? But without any evidence? The West has entered a stage of full genocidal madness.

Bad censorship vs. Good censorship

[Norman Finkelstein @normfinkelstein]

SIMPLE TRUTHS: Behind the contrived hysteria at UNRWA lurks Western fury at the ICJ decision; If Israel is plausibly guilty of genocide, then the “enlightened” West stands guilty of complicity in genocide; (1/)

The mass graves of @GerAmbTLV’s “atonement”

[Tariq Kenney-Shawa @tksshawa]

In 2013, @DCIPalestine reported that a 13-year-old boy was raped in Israeli prison. After the US brought the allegations to Israel’s attention, Israeli forces raided @DCIPalestine offices & designated them a terrorist org.

Israel is using the same strategy to delegitimize UNRWA.

Rachel Corrie is a hero. Ben Shapiro will forever be a zero.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Imagine Hamas stormed a hospital disguised as doctors, nurses, patients and civilian women, and executed three Israelis.

It would be front page news.

It would be offered up as evidence of their outrageous evil.

I doubt many media outlets will even cover this.

[Frank Owen's Legendary Paintbrush🥀🇵🇸🇾🇪🇸🇩 @OwenPaintbrush]

There's actual video evidence of an Israeli soldier shooting dead an unarmed Palestinian man waving a white flag.

US/UK: "We won't comment without more evidence."

Israeli intelligence *claims* 12 members of UNRWA were involved on 7 Oct.

US/UK: That's good enough for us.

Spain announces that they will not suspend funding to UNWRA. The allegations, extracted through torture, concerns "10 workers out of a total of 30,000”
