Perfect day

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

This is one of the most heart-wrenching videos I have ever seen. It shows the immediate aftermath of an Israeli soldier shooting a 7-month old Palesinian baby in the head, stealing his life.

It shows that the car with the Palestinian family had stopped. Yet the Israelis shot.

The father is holding his infant son in his arms as he bleeds to death from the shot to his head. It tears you apart.

This is the daily life of Palestinians under Israel's US-supported occupation.

You never know when you will be shot in the head. It can happen any time, for any reason.

And the world approves.

Imagine for a second what would happen if a Palestinian public figure made a joke about raping Israelis on the red carpet of the Tribeca film festival.

Brazilian legend Ronaldo Nazário drops a bombshell:

'What is happening in Gaza is not a war... it is a systematic extermination of a people trapped in a cage.'
'The silence of the world is frightening... and staying silent about this brutality is a moral failure.'
'I will not be silent... I will never be silent. I stand with Gaza.' 🔥🇧🇷🇵🇸"

Israel tied up children and babies, KILLED them, then buried them in mass graves.

A French aid worker: “We found a mass grave in Gaza containing 300 bodies. Small children were killed with their hands tied behind their backs

EuroMedHR: Inside the mass graves, they found children & babies with their hands bound with zip ties

This photo is from 2 mass graves discovered at Nasser Hospital, southern Gaza, in April During the genocide, the EuroMedHR documented over 130 mass graves of victims of the Israeli genocide

@HMcEntee I don't think you care about them. You just voted against the bill yesterday. I don't know how you can even sleep, knowing by your vote, many people will be killed in Gaza.

[Alex 🇵🇸🇱🇧 @foleywoley]

I have watched Israel decapitate children, burn people alive, rape people to death, maul a disabled man to death with dogs, bomb schools, starve an entire population, and shoot children in the head, but somehow I'm supposed to believe that Ben-Gvir's actions "aren't the spirit of Israel."

Former Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his wife PANIC when confronted about killing a generation of children in Palestine while their own kids are present.

“Please, with the children!” They plead.

Activist responds by asking if it’s “just your children” they care about says she’s feels sorry for their kids — “one day they’ll grow up and read the news.”

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

I appreciate the intense interest in my column. For skeptics, why not agree on Red Cross and lawyer visits for the 9,000 Palestinian "security" prisoners? If you think these abuse allegations are false, such monitoring visits would be protective. So why not?

[Ben Marmarelli بن مرمريلي בן מרמרלי @mrmrly44557]

A very serious investigation has been published in @nytimes about rape and sexual violence carried out by the authorities in Israel. I am also quoted in this article as one of many, many people who provided accounts to this newspaper, which is considered extremely pro-Israeli.
In response, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote that these are antisemitic “blood libels.” It is clear that the reports already published by Al Jazeera in 2024, and by me in 2025 when the BBC censored and deleted the interview with me, are true.
People simply need to listen to Palestinians. But the world does not listen to Palestinians. It only listens when it is written in The New York Times — and now it is written there.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

@NickKristof Congrats on publishing this years too late.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

The level of courage it takes for these Palestinian victims of rape to talk openly about what is being done to them while in Israeli custody -- in the face of threats that the assaults will be repeated -- is awe inspiring.

Kristof even found three children raped in Israeli custody. Cutting off funds is not enough. Only sanctions and prosecutions can bring some semblance of civility back.

Hi Ayne, Irish Jew here, daughter of a German born Holocaust surviver. I should be angry at this outrageously stupid and ridiculis post and was tempted to scroll on, with an eye roll, but found I could not. So.. here goes ..I love my country, Ireland, and its people. We Irish "give out" a lot about many things, and rightly so, but when it gets down to the nitty gritty we stick together, love and protect each other. There is a long history of oppression and colonialism in Ireland which allows us Irish to understand the subject pretty darn well. I have many many friends here, most of whom I have no clue of what religion they might or might not practice or even how they vote in elections as that is of no interst to me and its a vice versa thing. The Irish couldn't give a sheit if you are Jewish or not. They do however, give a sheit, if you are blowing children to pieces, commiting genocide and stealing homes and land. The few people who I do know to be Jewish or of Jewish decent, are venimtly anti Zionist, as am I, and can be found on the front lines of Free Palestine marches, even speaking at them. To us..never again means never again.. to any one ..anywhere... ever! I hope that clarifies the issue for you.

🚨 Netanyahu Just Got Slapped Hard by Scandinavia 🔥

The five Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark & Iceland) just made a dramatic announcement:

They will NOT allow any Israeli aircraft — civilian or military — to enter their airspace or land in their territory.

Translation: Netanyahu’s plane is officially banned from half of Northern Europe.

The airspace in front of him is now completely locked.

Europe is slowly closing its doors on Israel.

How long until more countries join them? 👀

This is getting very interesting… Drop your thoughts 👇
