Apartheid Israel created the largest # of child amputees in modern history in Gaza and is now preventing crutches from entering Gaza. Israel is a caricature of pure evil.
🚨 JUST IN: Houston Texans star Azeez Al-Shaair fined earlier this week for wearing Hind Rajab’s name on his eye black, wrote Wafaa Akila’s name on it before the game today.
Wafaa Akila. 8 years old. First day of school. The IDF took her life in a targeted strike in Gaza.
Seeing people argue against a 32 hour work week is insane. Y’all need hobbies, friends, sunlight, literally anything outside of work. Life is not supposed to be just work until you die. We really will never revolt because some of y’all are way too brainwashed.
Exactly which is why the Supreme Court went to great lengths to describe Black people as property & tether property rights to liberty. That characterization marks Black people ontologically and is a defining feature of both capitalism and American identity.
I wonder if that curriculum will include the numerous jewish terrorist organizations and paramilitaries that helped pave the way for the founding of Israel. In particular Haganah, which carried out bombings, assassinations, and attacks on civilians, and later formed the core of the IDF.
He's right and Symone being offended that Hasan draws a comparison between Hamas and the Black Panthers and BLM protestors is disingenuous and ignorant when the US gov't has literally executed Black protest organizers in Ferguson, and labeled 'AntiFa' a terrorist organization.
Amid growing concerns over food safety in the United States, President Donald Trump last month authorized the duty-free importation of 660 million pounds of cheap beef trimmings that will get mixed in with other cuts to make ground beef. Customers at the grocery store will have no way to identify this “mystery meat,” which is coming mostly from Brazil.
President Trump’s proclamation in August came just a day after he met in the White House with Joesley Batista, whose family controls the Brazilian company JBS, the largest beef producer in the world. JBS is notorious for food safety violations and admitted in 2017 to bribing thousands of Brazilian officials for favorable treatment.
“It smells like a pretty corrupt deal,” says investigative journalist Eric Schlosser. He says Trump’s move is “basically screwing over American ranchers,” and the imported beef is “some of the meat most likely to be contaminated.”

Now that almost all the victims of the surreal scene of a building collapsing on top of its inhabitants in Gaza overnight have been pulled from the rubble, I can’t stop myself from saying that this has been one of my recurring nightmares since 2021, waking me up in the middle of the night multiple times.
Having survived several Israeli attacks, I never had nightmares about being killed.. that doesn’t quite scare me. My worst nightmare is being asleep safely in my bed and suddenly seeing the ceiling collapse, the walls break, and myself falling with my entire apartment to the ground.
In 2021, following Israel’s devastating 51-day attack on Gaza, I interviewed a survivor who had been pulled from under the rubble after an Israeli airstrike. She told me she didn’t hear the bombing when the building was hit, but the moment it was hit, and just before it collapsed, she saw cracks appearing in the wall in front of her. She pointed at the wall and tried to ask her family, “What’s this?" Before she could finish the sentence, she woke up after some time of fainting to find herself trapped under the rubble. She spent hours there before civil defence rescuers reached her.
I documented her story. And ever since, I have relived it multiple times in my sleep.
Throughout the genocide and until now, my brain has woken me up in the middle of nightmares, seemingly trying to save itself from the pressure it was under, giving me an almost real experience of being trapped beneath the rubble.
Over the past few months, however, I have started having a different kind of nightmare. Less chaotic, just one single scene, but equally traumatising.
In a random conversation with the kind of context only Gazans would understand, I spoke to a colleague about it just last week.
I stepped into the office, made coffee and sat at my desk, visibly not in the mood. He routinely asked how I was doing.
“Not in the mood,” I replied. “I had a nightmare.”
“What was it?” he asked.
“I saw a yellow block right on our street corner,” I replied.
“Oh, merciful God. God forbid,” he said.
“Amen,” I replied, and continued with what I was doing.
A moment of silence passed before I laughed: “I just imagined someone abroad listening to our conversation and hearing you react like that to a colleague casually telling you she saw a yellow block in her dream," I told him. "How would they understand your reaction? Would it make sense to the most sophisticated psychologists, unfamiliar with our reality, that dreaming of a yellow block could require psychological support?”
“No one would imagine,” he replied.
And that’s exactly it. No one would imagine, how Israel is effectively perpetrating genocide across every single aspect of Palestinains’ lives.
(*The yellow blocks are concrete blocks the Israeli occupation army places in civilian neighbourhoods to mark what it calls the “Yellow Line". Once residents see a yellow block placed at the doorstep of their homes, they know they have to evacuate immediately because the Israeli army is preparing to flatten the neighbourhood and move the line deeper into Gaza, an area that now cuts through around 70% of the Strip)
Israeli forces detained Palestinian-American journalist and @DropSiteNews contributor Naqaa Hamed in the occupied West Bank. Her family contacted the US Embassy in Jerusalem seeking assistance, but has yet to receive a response regarding the wrongful detention of an American citizen.

Kyrie Irving says he will cover a $11,492 fine that Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair incurred for writing the name of a young Palestinian girl killed by Israel’s military on his eye black.
