Should bagels made with refined flour really allowed to be called "Everything" bagels? I mean, c'mon that's just false advertising. #Showerthoughts #RDchat #gatekeeping #nutrition

Today in 1970, Ohio National Guardsmen fire into a crowd of anti-war protesters at Kent State University killing four. "They were all on one knee and pointing their rifles at us," recalled one eyewitness. "Then they fired." The violence triggers campus strikes across the U.S.

[Josh Balk @joshbalk]

The pork industry lost with voters. Lost at the Supreme Court. So they turned to Congress—and got the "Save Our Bacon" Act buried in the House Farm Bill. It's the biggest rollback of animal welfare protections in U.S. history. A thread. 🧵

Scientists call for an immediate BAN on boiling lobsters alive - as study confirms crustaceans can feel pain https://t.co/N4fCUU5wpp

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

To do this to a child is beyond barbaric. No words.

Lebanese die, Israelis are killed

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Mark Carney, who awed the world with his speech about the rules-based order and his opposition to American belligerence, says he supports this new attack on Iran

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

Israeli paratroopers shot 14-year-old Jadallah Jadallah in al-Fara’a refugee camp in the northern occupied West Bank on Nov. 16 and left him alive, bleeding, and visibly moving on the ground for at least 45 minutes without medical aid, according to Haaretz video footage (shared in the clip below). He later died.

Canada finally reacts, through our foreign affairs minister (not our prime minister).

Really, embarrassingly timid statement when you consider what just happened.

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

Under new rules, Israel is rejecting NGOs that "delegitimize" (meaning criticize) Israel. Among those barred are Save the Children, one of the best known and oldest in Gaza, where it helps 120,000 children, and the American Friends Service Committee.

All of this for rescuing 4 sick chickens from suffering. The birds were worth next to nothing to the slaughterhouse. This is not what the justice system was set up for.

[Zohran Kwame Mamdani @ZohranKMamdani]

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

[Yuval Abraham יובל אברהם @yuval_abraham]

An Israeli settler just shot Odeh Hadalin in the lungs, a remarkable activist who helped us film No Other Land in Masafer Yatta. Residents identified Yinon Levi, sanctioned by the EU and US, as the shooter. This is him in the video firing like crazy.

The last mobile bakery of Jose Andres is out of flour.

Israel’s siege will kill all 2 million people in Gaza if the world doesn’t act.

[World Central Kitchen @WCKitchen]

After serving more than 130 million total meals and 26 million loaves of bread over the past 18 months, World Central Kitchen no longer has the supplies to cook meals or bake bread in Gaza. #ChefsForGaza (1/5)

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

“With each passing day of the aid blockade, they face the growing risk of starvation, illness and death – nothing can justify this.”

Full statement from @unicefchief on the situation for children in the Gaza Strip after two months of aid blockade : https://t.co/8DfV1h1eQs

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

Looks like Israel has drone bombed an aid flotilla in international waters with 30 human rights activists aboard

Another maniacal act of violent sabotage to ensure no one interferes with the ongoing Holocaust in Gaza

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Bombing tents

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.

Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again.

NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

The US dropped bombs on a Cancer Center and medical facilities in Yemen.

A Cancer Center.

Over 151 Yemeni civilians killed and injured in the last 2 days.

They are deliberately targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure.

This is a war crime and a crime against humanity.
