This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: https://t.co/aMMHId49OO
🚨Nicholas Kristof, grand reporter au New York Times, signe une enquête qui va faire mal. Très mal. Sa question finale, il l'emprunte à Netanyahu lui-même, celle que le Premier ministre israélien lançait au monde après le 7 octobre : « Where the hell are you ? » Aujourd'hui, Kristof la lui retourne. Et elle tombe comme un couperet.
L'article est accablant. Des Palestiniens, hommes, femmes, enfants, sont violés systématiquement par des soldats, des colons, des gardiens de prison. Des viols avec des matraques, des carottes, des bâtons. Des chiens dressés pour pénétrer des détenus. Des hommes qui urinent du sang après qu'on leur ait ligoté les testicules. Des femmes dénudées, battues, giflées, présentées comme un trophée à chaque relève de garde. Des enfants menacés qu'on leur enfonce un bâton dans le cul s'ils ne coopèrent pas.
Ce n'est pas une exception. C'est une politique. Un rapport de l'ONU parle de « procédure opérationnelle standard ». Une pratique généralisée, encouragée par l'impunité totale. Ben-Gvir traite les détenus de « raclures » et « nazis ». Netanyahu qualifie les poursuites contre des soldats violeurs de « blood libel » et les réhabilite. Et les États-Unis ? Ils appellent ça 'de simples allégations'. Allégations. Qu'ils aillent dire ça aux enfants qui ont vu des chiens les monter.
La question de Netanyahu, « Where the hell are you ? », Kristof la retourne : où étiez-vous pour les Palestiniens ? Où sont les condamnations ? Où sont les sanctions ? Où sont les ambassadeurs qui se déplacent avec des caméras ? Où sont les suspensions d'aide militaire ?
Nulle part. Parce que les victimes ne sont pas les bonnes. Parce qu'être Palestinien, c'est être une victime de seconde zone. Parce que l'Occident a choisi son camp, celui du violeur plutôt que du violé.
Et bien sûr, la hasbara est aux abois. « l’article le plus antisémite des temps modernes ». Leur seul argument : crier au loup pour qu'on ne regarde pas leurs monstres. Mais les victimes, elles, ne crient pas. Elles saignent.
Article du NYT en commentaire.
Imagine being this depraved.
That is a tent. A makeshift tent. The roof appears to be made of a tarp sourced from UNRWA. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
People in Gaza are trying to create a few square feet of dignity, Wi-Fi, coffee, studying, and human life under siege - and the @nypost's editorial board looks at it and says: "luxury."
This is deranged atrocity propaganda for people who need Palestinians to look sufficiently miserable before they are allowed to be called victims.
"Genocide disproven because women are sitting under a tarp with laptops" is a level of moral rot that belongs in evidence folders at the Hague, not newspapers.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso @IdiazAyuso, del Partido Popular español, buscó capturar electorado de extrema derecha de VOX reivindicando en México a...¡Hernán Cortés! La presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum se dio un festín con tamaña provocación: el PAN en ruinas
‼️Pedimos al gobierno de Israel la liberación inmediata e incondicional de Saif Abukeshek y Thiago Ávila, detenidos por Israel tras participar en la Flotilla Global Sumud. Israel ha presentado una lista de acusaciones sin fundamento, pero no cargos formales. Va HILO. @gbsumudflotilla@thiagoavilabr@_estebanbeltran
Aquí una nueva muestra de la justicia de clase:
👉🏽 Misma causa
👉🏽 Misma peligrosidad para sociedad
👉🏽 Misma medida cautelar: prisión preventiva
⛔️ Pero distinta cárcel luego del “procedimiento de clasificación, segmentación y verificación de su estado de salud”…
first: you should admit that, strictly speaking, what you said before is not true.
second: if you consider the fiscal deficit (not the structural one), the data for 2025 (2,8% of GDP) is lower than for 2009 (4,37% of GDP), 2019 (2,86% of GDP), 2020 (7,3% of GDP) and 2021 (7,73% of GDP), at least (I am not considering data from before 1990).
As the world looks elsewhere, Israel continues to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza. Days in days out. Shame on complicit western media and all complicit governments.
@FVH78@MichelaTincani@EconUCL@UCLPolicyLab my friend, in 2021 the structural fiscal deficit was 10,6% of GDP and in 2025 it was around 3,6% of GDP. So the deficit in 2025 was far from historical
Horrific: Video shows an Israeli settler deliberately blocking the path of a Palestinian ambulance on a road in southern Nablus in the West Bank while it was transporting a critically ill person.
We call for the release of activists #Saif Abu Keshek and #Thiago Avila who's arbitrary detention has been extended by an Israeli court after the unlawful interception of the #GlobalSumudFlotilla vessels in international waters last week.
The two activists were participating in a peaceful solidarity mission aiming to break Israel's unlawful blockade of the #Gaza Strip and deliver aid to Palestinians struggling to survive under Israel’s genocide and unlawful occupation.
They are at great risk of human rights abuses, including torture and other ill-treatment given @amnesty's previous documentation of the abuse inflicted on flotilla activists detained in October 2025 at the hands of the Israeli authorities
It is especially concerning that Saif Abu Keshek, a Palestinian-Spanish-Swedish national, is being detained on suspicion of affiliation with a terrorist organization given Israel's discriminatory laws and persistent record of harassment and oppression of Palestinians under Israel’s system of apartheid. Israel must immediately release them and ensure they are protected while in custody.
Israel’s defiance of international law must end. The ICJ has been clear: Israel’s #occupation is unlawful and must be brought to an end. States must act now to restore some faith in international law by holding Israel accountable for its violations and crimes.
En el paradero de Vitacura con Alonso de Córdova los cabros chicos con uniforme de colegio privado no pagan el pasaje del sistema de transporte público. Qué rabia, como si sus papás no tuvieran dos lucas semanales para su transporte.
The president of the United States posting from an official government account an image of the chair of the Federal Reserve being thrown in the trash.
There are no words or precedents for this.
JUST IN: A Trump judicial nominee was asked point blank: is Trump eligible to run for a third term?
Their answer: “I would have to review the actual wording…”
Sen. Chris Coons then asked every nominee in the room to confirm the Constitution bars a third term.
Silence.
Every single one of them refused to say it.
Trump is appointing judges who won’t affirm the 22nd Amendment to his face.
Never stop connecting the dots.
I am disgusted by scenes of an Israeli Minister glorifying violence with the image of a noose on his lapel and his birthday cake. Celebrating executions is despicable. The Israeli Government must urgently repeal its discriminatory death penalty law.
