Rep. Adam Smith (D-Washington), top ranking Democrat on the committee, says that of course he does not like Netanyahu (like all good Democrats say now) but that "we benefit from that technology partnership..Israel's been actually having to fight."
This is known as the "Palestine Laboratory." Israeli weapons are tested in real time on the bodies of Palestinians, which the Israeli weapons industry uses in its marketing. Smith is arguing that we should benefit from that human experimentation too.
Rape with objects. Gang rape. Rape by trained dogs. Targeted genital shooting. Filmed. Photographed. Archived by the perpetrators. Across 12 named Israel detention sites.
The UN calls it a pattern. B’Tselem calls it a network of torture camps. Both are correct.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize Israel had now escalated to the "quadruple tap" where they just keep killing and killing as people try desperately to help the wounded
The most darkly funny aspect of this video is that Ivanka Trump speaks as if she went on some profound, prolonged spiritual and philosophical journey to ascertain the meaning of life, and concluded that the most elevated human state is to live on a gigantic private island in the Mediterranean, in a sprawling mansion paid for with the billions of dollars given to her husband by the Saudis and Emiratis to ensure favorable treatment by him and by her dad in their exercise of the powers of the American Presidency. Real uplifting stuff. 🙏
For the past two and a half years, the UK government has armed a genocide as it was livestreamed around the world.
Now, some politicians are pretending they have always been against the crimes they enabled.
Too little, too late. Your complicity will never, ever be forgotten.
Hussam Ebu Safieh, "İsrail'in rehineler için ölüm cezası" ile öldürülecek olan Filistinli doktorlardan biridir (diğer 95 doktor arasında).
Onu öldürmelerine izin verme.

Emily Thornberry has today said the government has let down the Palestinian people, and allowed Israel to act with impunity.
The audacity.
Here she is in October 2023 refusing to condemn Israel cutting off power and supplies to Gaza.
Don’t let these people rewrite history.
Hamawy has won — meaning a doctor who treated the victims of the U.S.-Israeli genocide in Gaza is headed to Congress.
He refused to leave his rotation, even as Israel surrounded the hospital and cut off the water supply, until a new rotation of doctors was allowed in
Just kind of left speechless at an invading army whining to the United Nations that the people they are invading — and killing their civilians by the thousands — are fighting back. This is a mystifying level of lack of self awareness
the reason why Palestine isn’t being seen anymore because there’s barely any journalists left. 20% of Lebanon is now under Israeli occupation. 12 million people have been displaced in Sudan. Over 25 million people are facing acute hunger in Congo. Don’t stop talking.
There was a point, 3 yrs ago, when Israel felt compelled to explain its attacks on hospitals. Then it realized Western govts aren’t fussed about such war crimes & Western media was happy to justify them. And so here we are: dozens of hospitals bombed in Gaza, Iran & Lebanon.
Banning Hasan Piker has already generated so much more controversy than him speaking at that event ever would have and wins you precisely zero votes from a right that hates you anyway. Truly amazing how bad Starmer and the gang are at politics
"Let me read the @guardian's analysis directly:
1,100 Palestinian civilians. Over 275 children. Murdered executed, shot, beaten, run over & not a single Israeli, not 1 soldier, not 1 settler, not 1 police officer, has been prosecuted. 0. Nothing.
This is not a failure of the justice system. This is the justice system.
Because when Palestinians submit complaints, and they do, they file thousands of them, less than 1% end in indictments.
Let me put that in perspective. If you are a Palestinian in the West Bank and an Israeli settler shoots your father in front of you, you have a 1% chance of even seeing an investigation. You have a 0% chance of seeing a conviction.
Now, imagine the opposite. If a Palestinian throws a stone at an Israeli soldier, military court, indefinite detention, possibly death, that is not a conflict. That is a racial hierarchy. That is aparthied."
This is what the genocide apologists were so proud about yesterday in New York. Apartheid.

Can you imagine the reaction if Mamdani marched in a Syria Day parade with Bashar al Assad? Or in a Russia Day parade with Vladimir Putin? But he’s getting flak for avoiding marching in an Israel Day parade with Bezalel fricking Smotrich. Oh the double standards and hypocrisy!
Pro-Palestine prisoner Umer Khalid, a 22-year-old with muscular dystrophy, has been dragging himself across his prison cell floor because he has been denied a wheelchair.
He hasn't had access to a shower for over 20 weeks.
He has been waiting for a neurology appointment for over 12 weeks while experiencing chest pain and breathlessness.
This is happening in a British prison right now.
I've written to David Lammy to demand answers:
