There are only two politicians on this planet that will ask a reporter "which outlet are you with" instead of acknowledging the question.

This is just embarrassing.

Genuinely don’t think I’m being hyperbolic when I say these people need to be stopped, and fast, or we are headed to a very dark place.

The most accurate portrayal of the pro-Jim Crow, white nationalist Roberts Supreme Court I've seen yet.

[Gil Meslin @g_meslin]

It shouldn’t be possible to lose a court decision and then afterwards change the law to retroactively render your actions legal. It means that in matters of provincial jurisdiction there effectively is no binding law for those that govern us.

Hard to fathom the bravery it takes to be an emergency services worker rushing to the scene of an Israeli airstrike. Totally unarmed and defenseless, these people rush toward probable death because they feel an obligation to help others. They are the best of humanity.

Horrifying news from Cuba as hospitals go dark after the US total energy blockade. Vital machines disconnected, patients killed…

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Israel is wiping out critical bridge after critical bridge in South Lebanon.

Civilians can’t flee.
Ambulances can’t reach the wounded.
Entire communities are cut off from food, medicine, and essential supplies.

This is intentional.
This is a crime against humanity.

I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.

It's that magical time of year when private jets descend on a Swiss mountain village to discuss climate change and poverty! Anyway, here's my annual reminder. I'll stop posting this when they stop avoiding the real issue: their own massive tax avoidance 💰

An Israeli soldier is stealing a Palestinian kid’s bike.

Is the bike a threat to anyone?

A 57-unit Scarborough apartment had only had two eviction applications in nine years.

Then in 2018, Starlight Investments purchased the building and, in just over a year, filed 29 eviction applications — increasing the rate of filings more than 10,000%, a recent study revealed.

Some pure evil from @nationalpost. Note the quotes. I wonder if the journalists who penned this gave a thought to how normalizing the murder of journalists by calling them terrorists might someday bite them, or someone else whose basic humanity they recognize, in the ass.

Amir walked 12 kilometres, barefoot, to get food.

He kissed the hand of an American soldier, thanking him for a bag of rice and lentils.

Then Israel killed Amir, right in front of the soldier.

A child, grateful for lentils. Executed in broad daylight.

Amir was 5 years old.

The fact that @MarkJCarney and @AnitaAnandMP have yet to take ANY concrete action on Israel’s forced starvation of Palestinians is a STAIN on Canada that will never wash out.

How do we live knowing we could have stopped this? How can we ever be forgiven?

Please. Do something.

The Foreign Ministers of Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the European Union Commissioner for Equality, Preparedness and Crisis Management, today issued the following statement:

“We, the signatories listed below, come together with a simple, urgent message: the war in Gaza must end now.

“The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths. The Israeli government’s aid delivery model is dangerous, fuels instability and deprives Gazans of human dignity. We condemn the drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, seeking to meet their most basic needs of water and food. It is horrifying that over 800 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid. The Israeli Government’s denial of essential humanitarian assistance to the civilian population is unacceptable. Israel must comply with its obligations under international humanitarian law.

“The hostages cruelly held captive by Hamas since 7 October 2023 continue to suffer terribly. We condemn their continued detention and call for their immediate and unconditional release. A negotiated ceasefire offers the best hope of bringing them home and ending the agony of their families.

“We call on the Israeli government to immediately lift restrictions on the flow of aid and to urgently enable the UN and humanitarian NGOs to do their life-saving work safely and effectively.

“We call on all parties to protect civilians and uphold the obligations of international humanitarian law. Proposals to remove the Palestinian population into a “humanitarian city” are completely unacceptable. Permanent forced displacement is a violation of international humanitarian law.

“We strongly oppose any steps towards territorial or demographic change in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The E1 settlement plan announced by Israel’s Civil Administration, if implemented, would divide a future Palestinian state in two, marking a flagrant breach of international law, and critically undermine the two-state solution. Meanwhile, settlement building across the West Bank and East Jerusalem has accelerated while settler violence against Palestinians has soared. This must stop.

“We urge the parties and the international community to unite in a common effort to bring this terrible conflict to an end, through an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire. Further bloodshed serves no purpose.  We reaffirm our complete support to the efforts of the US, Qatar and Egypt to achieve this.

“We are prepared to take further action to support an immediate ceasefire and a political pathway to security and peace for Israelis, Palestinians and the entire region.”

FYI : This is happening in Gaza!

[MSF International @MSF]

Gaza has become a “mass grave” for Palestinians and those helping them.

Israeli forces are systematically destroying Palestinian life and showing a blatant disregard for the safety of humanitarian and medical workers:
