Never forget the betrayal and the brutality. Never forget #Srebrenica and the wider Bosnian genocide. ▪️

Not a single day since a supposed ceasefire that Palestinians in tents are not being slaughtered by Israel. Gaza City is under a brutal series of bombings right now. The ambient genocide continues.

Israeli forces guarding settlers near the village of al-Mughayyir village, east of the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, fired stun grenades and tear gas at Palestinians in the area.

“The IDF is apparently the world’s first army to declare a toilet a closed military zone.”

What? Yes. Settlers blocked a Palestinian family in Umm al-Khair from accessing their toilet. Then the IDF declared it a closed military zone.

⭕️ Israeli Defense Minister Katz:

“Homes in 24 villages along the border — villages that had existed for hundreds of years… have been demolished.

The army systematically flattened the villages with bulldozers and explosives.

90% of the houses are gone. Between 15,000 and 20,000 homes have been destroyed.”

This is a picture of Gaza on the left, and a picture of Lebanon on the right.

I have documented the genocide in Gaza since day one. I was among the first to call it "genocide" at the UN. And we warned the world that Gaza is the testing ground for a lawless new world order.

What Israel is currently doing in southern Lebanon is clearly aimed at ethnic cleansing and colonization, using the same war crime tactics used in the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Lebanon is being ethnically cleansed in real time. They are literally repeating it all on lebanon, with flagrant violations of international law and the international community remains silent! We told you they wouldn't stop with Gaza.

Disregard for international law did not stop in Palestine, but continued in Lebanon. Similarities between Israel's bombing of Gaza and Lebanon are growing. Hospitals in flames and children buried beneath rubble in homes, in flagrant violation of all international laws and treaties, with full impunity and absolutely no consequences.

According to Article Il of the UN Genocide Convention, genocide involves specific acts committed with the "intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group."

Israel is deliberate destruction of the means of life in southern Lebanon which it is an evidence of genocide. Wiping out entire villages is not military necessity. It is the deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure. These are war crimes under international law: Wanton devastation not justified by military necessity.

The war in Lebanon has reached a point where it can no longer be described as anything other than genocide. Lebanon is the second most-documented genocide in history after Palestine, yet the most denied.

War crimes beget war crimes—When the international community failed to bring Israel to justice for Genocide in Gaza, Israel knew they could do it again with impunity.

What is under the rubble in Gaza and Lebanon, is not just the bodies of Palestinians and Lebanese, but the international law and the UN charter. Israel is totally unleashed with no red lines. This is a terrifying and shameful moment for humanity.

Don't be fooled by current leaders statements calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza and Lebanon. If they really wanted to end it, they would have stopped military aid to Israel.

We are the tirst generation to watch two live-streamed genocide from our phones.

We have a choice. We either become the generation that stopped two genocide in Gaza and Lebanon, or we become the generation that allowed millions of people to be killed watching it live.

The genocide in Gaza and the genocide in Lebanon must be stopped.
