“Vulnerable newborns and sick and wounded children in need of intensive care are being killed in tents, in incubators and in the arms of their parents.”

Well. The US appears to be more racist and misogynistic than anticipated. Impressive. #Election2024

Republicans, don't forget to get out and vote on Wednesday. #Election2024

Amazing to think that elections are taking place this year in countries home to almost half of the world's population, particularly after spending 5 minutes on this platform. #Election2024

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

“It is absolutely terrifying.
You can hear children crying, people screaming, people running for their lives, and it has been nonstop for 24 hours. People are trapped."

@UNWateridge tells @AJEnglish that people in #Gaza are facing relentless and continuous bombardments with nowhere safe to go.

Watching urchins in Halloween garb circling Caldene Avenue like buzzards. #Mytholmroyd life.

Journalists on the ground in Jabalia report that the Israeli military has ordered medical and civil defense teams, via loudspeakers, to proceed to one of their checkpoints & leave the camp.

They added that anyone remaining to conduct operations in the area will be targeted.

UNIFIL statement:

Early this morning, peacekeepers at a UN position in Ramyah observed three platoons of IDF soldiers crossing the Blue Line into Lebanon.

[Doug Wept @thiefotime]

@PriyamvadaGopal International Humanitarian Law views UN peacekeepers as civilians, which may explain Israel's confusion.

Beirut, 2 strikes now. A building collapsed in a “safe” area. IAF will have killed dozens, it will be reported a “success”, western media will say “targeted”, the US will send more bombs to eliminate terrorism. We will all die as collateral damage for their racist hallucinations.

Given the readiness with which #Labour has sought to pander to the populist right on issues such as climate protests and small boats I think it reasonable to fear what #Badenoch will do to the Overton Window.

Someone had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

[Naomi Klein @NaomiAKlein]

I wrote about the many ways that Israel has made trauma a weapon of war.

About how this exploitation betrays the victims of the past.

And creates many more victims in the present.

It was hard to write. It will be hard to read.

I hope it helps. https://t.co/ENQLh35YFw

Solid case against the pursuit of infinite wealth and ketamine.

There will be many people who only read the thing about #SueGrey getting the job and how prepped for power Labour would be, and now the one about her resignation, and will be raising a curious eyebrow. Grey The Shitshow Years coming soon to Channel 5.

Wait. What? #KirstyMacColl did the backing vocals for The Happy Mondays' Hallelujah.

Mind blown.
