Me and distraction go back a long way. First distracted in Manchester, for now in Aus.

‘The scale and rate at which Palestinian children in Gaza were killed and injured is without precedent in modern conflicts worldwide, according to the commission, making the coastal enclave “the most dangerous place in the world to be a child.”’ https://t.co/KYYWHwRoEL

I have asked permission to share an excerpt of an email from Prof Mazin Qumsiyeh, Founder, and (volunteer) Director
Palestine Museum of Natural History,
Palestine Institute of Biodiversity and Sustainability
Bethlehem University, Occupied Palestine
‘"Our neighbor in the camp, his wife was killed about a year ago while going with him to receive American aid. For the past three days, I've felt like I can hear her voice inside the tent, but I was afraid to dwell on the thought or let my mind race, so I ignored it. Yesterday, it happened again.
While we were sitting down to coffee today, I decided to confide in him: "I'm sorry, Abu Issa, but lately, at night, when everyone is asleep, I hear Umm Issa laughing and calling to the children, and I don't understand why this is happening to me." I was shocked when I didn't see any surprise on his face. He smiled and said, "Oh, my friend, that's my daughter, Soso.
Before she goes to sleep, she keeps playing this video of her mother on her phone and falls asleep to it." Honestly, I didn't know what to say or how to comfort him. I took my coffee cup and looked at Soso, who wasn't far from us, playing hopscotch with her friends. I drank the whole cup silently, cursing everything, cursing this world that demands this child be normal during the day amidst this carnage, then leaves her at night to collapse alone without her mother."  [Note: there is no privacy in the tent cities in Gaza, everyone hears everyone]’

Bravo to these wonderful Labor delegates who dropped the Palestinian flag when Minns walked into the NSW Labor Conference at Sydney Town Hall today.
Police removed them roughly 😡

I am gravely concerned by reports of a severe deterioration in the condition of Dr. Abu Safiyah.

We reiterate our demands for his release, along with all other doctors being held without charge.

IDF monsters laughing as a toddler shakes as it dies with its legs blown off. An archive of horrors upon horrors that shame humankind. Where is the 'Screams Without Words' for this? Where are the special journalist screenings for genocide? Legacy media are Zionist scum

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

BREAKING (bones)
Why does "Bring Them Home" exist only for some hostages?
Because in Apartheid Israel, where only Jewish lives matter, brutalising the Palestinians isn't an anomaly - it is the system. And the silence around it is the exact measure of our collective hypocrisy.

Iran’s masterful trolling has been the best thing in contemporary political theater.

It’s been 1000 days of Genocide in Gaza. Probably time to speak up now don’t you think?

The killing of a Palestinian footballer by Israeli forces on Monday has reignited calls for Fifa to ban Israel amid its ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Saleem al-Ashqar, 32, was cycling in search of a gas cylinder when Israeli soldiers shot him in the town of al-Qarara, just outside Khan Younis.

The Khadamat Khan Younis goalkeeper was taken to hospital but died of severe internal hemorrhaging and organ damage, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Football Association (PFA) said.

“Despite medical efforts, the hospital's severely limited capabilities – exacerbated by the collapse of Gaza's health sector due to the ongoing war of extermination – made it impossible to control the internal bleeding,” Dima Youssef told the New Arab. “Given the severity of his injuries, Al-Ashqar passed away about two hours after arriving at the hospital.”

The goalkeeper’s death brings the number of Palestinian athletes killed by Israel since October 2023 to 1,009, including at least 567 footballers.

In a tribute on X, Turkey’s minister of sports Osman Aşkın Bak compared the 567 Palestinians murdered by Israel to the 572 footballers playing in the World Cup.

Spanish-Moroccan sports journalist Leyla Hamed wrote that Fifa suspends football federations “almost every week” but repeatedly refused to issue a decision on Israel. “How much investigation does the most documented genocide in history need?” she asked.

In 2024, the PFA asked Fifa to expel the Israel Football Association amid its genocide in Gaza.

This March, Fifa finally announced it would not kick out Israel but fined its football authority $190,000 on charges relating to “discriminatory and racist abuse”.

Meanwhile, it suspended Russia from the World Cup days after its invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

The body has been silent on the systematic targeting of Palestinian athletes since the start of the genocide in October 2023, drawing condemnation from advocacy groups including the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel.

[Matt Kennard @kennardmatt]

I asked Palestine Action co-founder @HudaAmmori if she regretted diversifying the group’s targets to include RAF Brize Norton

Her response was powerful: “No. Not at all. For the first time, mainstream media had to report the RAF’s role in the Gaza genocide”👇

The Gaza Ethnic Cleansing Agenda Continues To Roll Forward

Calling the Gaza genocide a “war” is like seeing a man beating up a toddler and calling it a “fight”.

It's not a war. It’s an ethnic cleansing operation. That’s all this has ever been.

There must be justice. The world cannot ignore the Israeli genocide in Gaza and people who committed it must be held to account. Essential accountability and solidarity work from the Australian Centre for International Justice. @rawanarraf

This is not Hiroshima. This is not Gaza.

This is Lebanon at night…

Israel is wiping out entire village after village, violating Security Council resolution SCR 1701, ceasefire agreement, and international law with absolutely no consequences.
