❤️🩹One of the last videos of martyred journalist Saleh al-Jaafarawi shows him smiling as he helps children take turns to wear his press vest. “I’m raising the next generation,” he says. “Even if they target us, the children will take our place and continue this mission."

@ZohranKMamdani appealing to voters that don't exist isn't the best strategy. you're just further alienating pro palestine people that would vote for u if you stopped saying bs like this and that "israel" has the right to exist. no state has the right to exist, people do
@_giacomo_volpe_ aoc is a zionist. she lied about biden "tirelessly working for a ceasefire." we knew what to expect w trump. aoc wants to act like she's part of this struggle when she's just controlled opposition. if she really cared about palestine she wouldn't need political incentives to act
@micah_erfan aoc is a fucking zionist, point blank period. she knew she was lying about biden admin "tirelessly working for a ceasefire." she thinks "israel" has the right to exist and defend itself. she is complicit in the genocide since before oct 7 as well. i swear yall don't pay attention
@ComradeIzzy@Meltdown1917 literally this. race informs class in settler colonial contexts. the settlers benefit from the dispossession and exploitation of the colonized peoples, therefore there is no way the colonized, the dispossessed and exploited, can be in the same class as the exploiter, the settler
Statement from @WOLPalestine:
EXPOSING ZIONIST TERROR IN NYC: The Real Story They’re Trying to Bury
What happened during yesterday’s Global Strike for Gaza protest wasn’t just met with state repression, but with Zionist violence, enabled and protected by the NYPD, right in the heart of New York City.
This is the true story directly from the protest organizers. This is what right-wing and zionist-aligned media are refusing to cover and trying to bury under a campaign of misinformation.
The protest began outside of the United Nations, where New Yorkers gathered to demand an end to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. We began by confronting the hypocrisy of the UN as it commemorated World Health Day, highlighting the evisceration of maternal and newborn healthcare in Gaza as bombs continue to rain down on mothers and babies. Yet, as we took to the streets to fight for Palestinian lives and justice, our health and safety were directly threatened by zionist violence.
WOL Chair Nerdeen Kiswani, who is eight months pregnant, was on the front lines of this protest — standing up in defense of Palestinian mothers and babies alike. Yet, despite being visibly pregnant and at great personal risk, the NYPD physically assaulted her while she was attempting to highlight the unfolding zionist violence that was unfolding right before our eyes.
As we began marching from the United Nations to Grand Central, it was clear that we were headed toward the Israeli Consulate General. But as we approached, the NYPD deliberately blocked our path. They forced us to turn right onto East 43rd St. Street, kettling us into a narrow corridor — a practice forbidden by the Department’s settlement agreement with the ACLU. The crowd was trapped, and there was no way out. They threatened arrests, and we were left with no choice but to move in the direction they dictated. This wasn’t crowd control — it was a trap set up for us.
And that’s when the Zionist violence began.
From the Summit NYC luxury building (222 E 44th St), located at what appeared to be the sixth floor, a Zionist resident, proudly holding an Israeli flag from their balcony, began launching projectiles at the protesters below—objects that could have easily killed or injured someone:
•A bucket of bleach (a clear biological hazard)
•A bag filled with rocks and feces(a clear biological hazard)
•Additional garbage bags and debris
One of the final projectiles smashed a car windshield, and just inches from hitting children, protesters were showered with filth and toxic liquids. It was an intentional, violent assault meant to harm and intimidate.
And the NYPD?
They stood by.
They allowed it to happen.
They did nothing.
Not even when police officers themselves were hit by the projectiles.
Instead of taking action against the assailant, the NYPD continued to target us for protesting a genocide paid for with our tax dollars.
When Within Our Lifetime Chair Nerdeen Kiswani exposed the hypocrisy of the NYPD’s inaction, she was physically assaulted by an officer. Nerdeen is eight months pregnant, a fact the NYPD knew as she had announced it at the start of the protest. Yet, they still chose to assault her for highlighting the NYPD’s crackdown on Palestine and protection of zionist agitators.
But the NYPD’s double standard isn’t new — their officers have not hesitated to enter buildings in order to target Palestinian organizers and activists in the past.
Zionists have rigged not the pagers, but the lithium batteries themselves imported at specific date
Other appliances are exploding today. Home appliances
Lithium batteries at home for your solar panels? That too
This is a systemic act of terrorism against an entire population
@Crazybrazy300 yeah i was gonna say food has to be one of the top factors cuz the food we have here is pretty shit nutritionally bc of what our govt says it's okay for humans to consume and shortcuts corps take. i think it also has to do with how we're socially engineered and atomized here
@Crazybrazy300 on my life it has something to do with capitalism and i just know it. at the very least the type of culture capitalism produces esp in the US bc our rates are higher than most of the world iirc
Maybe it’s just my Catholic guilt talking but I feel guilty eating a semi-bougie meal at a restaurant knowing there are homeless people in my city. Can’t even imagine “celebrating life” a few miles away from a concentration camp.
