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.

Every corner store in New York got a worker that look like Landry Shamet

Remember how everyone rushed to use his photo, of his walking toward an IDF tank to advocate for the lives of his patients? Rushed to plaster it everywhere, rushed to make AI edits, art, whatever. That was in December 2024.

How often is he mentioned today? He is alive, he is being tortured and slowly killed - he, alongside every Palestinian hostage, must be freed.

Israel executed Theodosia today in Qlayaa, South Lebanon.

She was on her way to take her exams.

Israel dropped a bomb on her car, killing her and her parents.

[Domhnall (Cogito) @CogitoEdu]

Reading How To Sell A Genocide, the NYT called every major population centre in the Gaza Strip a "Hamas stronghold" at some point.

They actively worked to militarise civilians in Gaza to justify genocide

@riggubknowsball Honestly just cut it off. Who needs a pinky?

You know, the killing is so relentless that you almost get used to it. A classroom of children killed every single day. You write about it, you read about it. Someone’s mother digs herself up from the rubble. Someone’s father is split in half. There was a video of wounded man using his arms to crawl across the road. Another man is so hungry he weeps. You read the stories. Each one is more brutal than the next and somehow the brutality is banal. You are numb, for better or for worse. But there are moments in the day, maybe just a singular moment, when you actually contend with the magnitude of the tragedy, when you are able to quantify the loss and in those moments you feel crushed—there are no adjectives. There are people mourning their lovers. Students missing their teachers. Orphans. Widowers. Grandmothers who look just like your own. I cry when I think about the people who were martyred just hours before they could apologize for something, or confess to something, or have something to eat. Or the slain who believed they would survive. And as the rancid rotten people of the world pontificate and debate the definition of genocide, you are at war with yourself, trying desperately to ignore the material meaning of the word. You read the news and you read the news and it is so hard to accept that the dead, the thousands of people they are slaughtering, they are your loved ones and your loved ones’ loved ones. This isn’t just a bad dream.

Jewish-American orthopedic surgeon Mark Perlmutter, who worked in Gaza, said Israeli soldiers took two Palestinian children, tied their hands behind their backs, and buried them alive at Nasser Hospital — their cries muffled by the dirt poured over them.

🚨Footage reveals a mass grave at Nasser Hospital in Gaza containing victims killed by the Israeli army after the hospital was devastated during Israel’s assault.

They put zip ties on babies before killing them. How is anyone with a conscience supposed to process this horror?

unadulterated evil in one photo

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

absolutely losing my mind that you have hundreds of international citizens who were been abducted, abused, some raped and tortured by Israel and… crickets in our news media. We are beyond “complicity” and ‘giving Israel impunity’ - its complete acquiescence and surrender.

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

This is verified and real footage of the IDF committing a double tap massacre against rescue workers in Lebanon. Israel is clearly giving orders to kill ambulance crews or this would not keep happening. The absolute evil behind this is breathtaking.

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

Here is the written order for ethnic cleansing made public by Israel. No pretense. No hiding. Just evidence of high war crimes.

[Hasan alrabay @HasanEssam29636]

In a heartbreaking and tragic scene, my friend's father was trying to help one of the injured when Israel bombed the area, killing him and everyone else there.

He died trying to save others.
