Was Leopold II unavailable?

[Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention @LemkinInstitute]

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention & Human Security stands in firm solidarity with all of the brave people aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, the international fleet of more than 50 boats that is headed toward Gaza to break the Israeli siege and deliver urgent humanitarian aid. 

Yet, let us be very clear: this mission should never have been necessary. Members of civil society should never have to risk their lives to deliver what states and the international community have the legal and moral duty to guarantee: safety, humanitarian assistance, and protection from genocide.

We call on all governments to ensure the safe passage of the Flotilla and to protect their citizens aboard this humanitarian mission from arbitrary detention. Above all, we urge all governments to protect Palestinian lives in Gaza, in the West Bank, and in East Jerusalem, in accordance with their obligations under the Genocide Convention.

No Western newspaper has the spine to publish headlines as stark and tragic as those @haaretzcom

96 private jets full of corrupt elites and celebs flying into Venice, a city destroyed by tourism, to celebrate the wedding of the world’s most shameless tax dodger: Jeff Bezos.

Well, it's the perfect anecdote for future historians writing about this Second Gilded Age --> 🧵

Our former university principal, everyone. Imagine taking this as your line of defence.

Remember the 97% consensus among scientists on climate change?

Today, it’s easier to find a professor who denies global warming than a genocide scholar who denies what’s happening in Gaza.

And yet, many 'moderates' still look the other way—denying what’s right in front of them

How is this not a headline in any Western outlet?

How scary is this?!

In case you were still wondering what I$r@€l wants from Lebanon

[Dalal Mawadدلال معوض @dalalmawad]

No shame. It took the EU weeks to decide whether Israel is violating article 2 of the association agreement, and when they finally say it is, they decide “but we will not punish Israel.” Guess what ? The entire world sees your complicity. We are no fools.

The IDF leveled an apartment building where one nuclear scientist lived.

They leveled another 1000 feet from the nearest military target, killing as many as 40 people, including 15 children.

They killed a young poet and her entire family whose neighbor was a physics professor.

Israel is at the forefront of the fight for Western Civilisation.

Regrettably, the leaders of Britain, France and Canada advocate appeasement and capitulation.
