If the bombs won’t kill them, if the starvation won’t kill them, if the injuries won’t kill them, if the bullets won’t kill them, if the diseases won’t kill them, if the lack of medical care won’t kill them.. the Israelis & Americans will find every other way to kill them.

🔴IMPORTANT🔴
📌 The US embassy has turned into Lebanon’s dictator & is now imposing restrictions on certain flights bringing humanitarian aid to the country, forcing them to first land in Jordan for inspection.

📌 The embassy in Aukar has also threatened Lebanon’s national carrier MEA with sanctions, should it transport injured people for treatment abroad.

If Harris wasn't trying to lose this election she would have stopped the genocide last week or earlier.

From the foreword of Francesca Albanese’s report: Israel’s violence post-October 7 is part of a long-term intentional, systematic, State-organised forced displacement and replacement of Palestinians.” No wonder journalists kept focusing on her rather than on what she had to say.

Every word of this heartbreaking piece on Al Jazeera’s @WaelDahdouh by @NesrineMalik. Full of loss, heartbreak, steadfastness, love.

Hannah Arendt spoke of the banality of evil. She said that the frightening thing about people who commit or go along with evil acts like genocide is not that there is something unusual about them but rather that that they are so “terribly and terrifyingly normal.” It was this normality that was “more terrifying than all the atrocities put together.” I look around today and see the many people among my neighbors, my colleagues, my relatives, the politicians and the media, who support or tolerate this genocide in Palestine, and I am terrified. Not only for Palestine, but for all of humanity. Not only for today, but for the future.

“Oh God, I didn’t recognize her. Oh God, Mom, no, I didn’t recognize you. Oh God, Mom, my beloved. My God, I can’t bear this. My father, my brothers, and now you—by God, I can’t bear it. I swear I can’t bear this. Am I never going to see you again?!”

💔These were the words of Palestine Red Crescent volunteer medic Abdulaziz Al-Bardini as he broke down in tears upon discovering that his mother was among the victims of the attack on Al-Maghazi camp in Deir al-Balah, central #Gaza. While Abdulaziz was focused on stopping the bleeding of a critically injured child inside the ambulance, his colleague was tending to a woman wrapped in a white blanket. When they reached the hospital and transferred her to the intensive care unit, the doctors informed them that she had passed away. Abdulaziz lifted the cover from her face, only to be shocked to find it was his #mother.

⭕️The pain and heartbreak endured by our EMTs and volunteers are beyond words. Despite losing loved ones and family members, they remain steadfast in their commitment to #humanitarian duty.

@stlrainbow I want to know more about the hamburger sculpture on the first level

[Hypnotoad @Finster112]

This person first alerted me and likely many others to the grifting done by BLM the organization. She is being prosecuted by an AIPAC pushed prosecutor turned congressman. She called them out first as far as I can recall. That's someone with integrity imo. Wish I could help.

[professional social media presence @muchlibrary]

@sucolorfavorito I really appreciate this. I've looked for this conversation (that I couldn't personally articulate) in anti-racist white spaces and this is an instructive and helpful provocation to re-ground and start again.
