@pranesh @VinceDaoTV Apologies! I thought you were talking about Mamdani! I have deleted the comment! Didn't really read that guy's whole text, just looked at the photo and felt you were talking about Zohran! 🙏

@VinceDaoTV That's rich coming from an American who still believes wiping with toilet paper counts as hygiene!

#Gaza: We condemn the killing by Israeli military of 6 Palestinian journalists by targeting their tent, in grave breach of international humanitarian law. #Israel must respect & protect all civilians, including journalists. At least 242 Palestinian journalists were killed in Gaza since 7 Oct 2023.

We call for immediate, safe & unhindered access to Gaza for all journalists.

“We had barely arrived when the explosions began — sharp, rhythmic, intensifying. Each thud sent a tremor through the walls.”

@ShowkatNanda’s vivid eyewitness account of a night spent under bombardment in Kashmir is so powerful and affecting.

I could hear the women in the bunker nearby chanting the Islamic Shahada — “There is no god but God …” — each time a shell landed. Their voices didn’t crack. Each time a blast rang out, my own body tightened.

About 10 minutes later, at 2:47 p.m., Mr. Khan said, he heard the sound of what he thought was firecrackers set off by the tourists. “Then I saw three people lying in a pool of blood,” he said.

At Least 24 Tourists Reported Killed by Gunmen in Kashmir

The attack, in a picturesque district, was the worst assault against civilians in the restive region in years, its leader said.

Oh! I thought they were there to rescue the hostages!

[State of Palestine @Palestine_UN]

On this day 24 years ago, the world watched, helplessly, as Jamal al-Durrah tried to protect his 12-year-old son Muhammad from Israeli bullets that rained down on them in Gaza for 40 minutes. Despite pleads, Israeli soldiers intentionally shot Muhammad in the stomach, whose final moments of fear and horror were caught on camera and streamed by France TV, and injured his father.

Muhammad became the defining and haunting image of the Second Intifada.

@Lite2324 @piersmorgan All the women who support Zionism know nothing about Judaism and Torah!

Irony dies a thousand deaths when these people call Palestinians animals.

[Chasing Sunsets @expat_vibes]

American journalist covering settler attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank gets harassed, spit on, and beer thrown at him by settlers.

If they treat Americans like this, why do you think it's okay to give them your money?

@OliLondonTV And how fair is this???

@piersmorgan Nobody takes you seriously, Piers. So chill!

[Showkat Nanda @ShowkatNanda]

@EylonALevy You are so right!

[Showkat Nanda @ShowkatNanda]

@AvivaKlompas Mob? Have you seen what the settler thugs are doing in West Bank?
