maybe, just maybe, the democrats should try offering voters a vision of the future or any value proposition besides not being the other guy. just a thought

[Yousef Munayyer @YousefMunayyer]

The Democratic establishment wants you to simultaneously believe that everything is on the line in this election and that this candidate is the best they can do.

Anyone else think we deserve better than watching these two old men babble at and insult each other? #Debates2024 #LetJillDebate

Disgraceful for @DanaBashCNN to frame the siege on Gaza as "Hamas has not released the hostages."

Hamas has accepted the binding UNSC proposal to release all hostages & complete ceasefire & Netanyahu is loudly rejecting it.

Calling this yellow journalism is an understatement.

[Mohammed El-Kurd @m7mdkurd]

Netanyahu's goal is to destroy Gaza's political and social infrastructure, not destroy Hamas. Destroying Hamas is merely a battlecry, a promise he's selling the Israeli public. If he believes it, then he has no basic understanding of history or physics.

Netanyahu wants to exert Statelessness over the Palestinian People, both as a physical state of being and—most importantly—as an inescapable political fate. It will be his swan song, as he knows his position as Prime Minister will likely end with the end of this war.

The targeting of government ministries, hospitals, universities, and media institutions (and the professionals that run them) isn't arbitrary or irrational. It is a precise and calculated effort to render Gaza irredeemably uninhabitable. One, to forcibly create a population of refugees and, two, to abort all of the Strip's political prospects.

The news that a US-Israeli team is already discussing how to use Gaza's gas proves what many have been saying: this is about occupying our lands and natural resources. This is about expansion and domination.

But even if a new status-quo is forced on Palestinians, Netanyahu knows, as history has taught us, that violence begets violence. The genocide waged in Gaza is Zionism stripped naked, a process accelerated by one man's desperate attempt at a dramatic exit.

Palestinians are not inherently violent. Resistance groups resort to violence because they are speaking the language of their oppressor.

[Sahrish Saleem Russell @sahrishx3]

We need to talk about the cycle of violence and how resistance groups are created. They don't pop up out of thin air. Violence begets violence and when it's all around you, that becomes the only way you know to fight back. The way to peace is not more war.

On 3 Nov 1956, Israeli forces entered Khan Yunis (in Gaza Strip) to eradicate fighters.

They rounded up all men 15+, lined them against a wall, & executed them.

An 8-year boy, Abdulaziz Rantissi, bore witness to the incident.

He co-founded Hamas.

This is what happened:

There are people in the comments debating if the person filming is a crisis actor.

That is what we have come to - you clearly see the pain, the destruction, the blood and your first thought is to question if its real.

We have failed as a people. How do we come back from this?

[IfNotNow🔥✡️ @IfNotNowOrg]

We never share graphic videos. Today we’re making an exception.

The words “Israeli airstrike” do not convey the horror of what was done to people sheltering at al-Shifa hospital in Gaza.

Lives shattered. Bodies broken. Pain beyond imagining.

We must, if we can, bear witness.

[JT Chapman 🇵🇸 @_SecondThought]

For anyone still “standing with Israel” or trying to inject false nuance into the Israeli genocide of Palestine, this thread is for you. These are the things you won’t be shown on the western news. Look at them now. It’s not too late to adjust your perspective.

Six months ago St. Rita was the preseason No. 2 in the Super 25 basketball rankings, boasting three juniors all committed to high-major programs and one of the top sophomores in the state.

Today the program is a shell of itself, writes @joehoopsreport.

[derecka @dereckapurnell]

all of the reforms failed at the same damn time - black cops, body cameras, multiple cops on the scene, tasers instead of guns- so how is more reform the answer?
#Blacker cops? Even non-deadlier non deadly weapons? ten cops instead of five? HD body cameras? harder convictions?

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

To recap: Police claim they shoot unarmed black children because they "fear for their lives" but police also claim they do not shoot armed gunmen killing children because they "fear for their lives."

[A. H. @a_h_reaume]

Roe v. Wade is based on the 'right to privacy.' If the majority opinion by SCOTUS suggests that the constitution does not protect the right to privacy... that affects a WHOLE lot of other decisions. Buckle up - this is the beginning of a lot of potential ugliness.

I just became the first U.S. Secretary of Education to call on President Biden to unilaterally cancel student loan debt. Can I count on you to retweet and help me hit 35k followers so we can spread the word?
