Welsh artist Diana Williams stitched the names of 300 babies killed by Israelβs genocidal war on Gaza into a vintage christening gown she transformed into a memorial.
More than 20,000 children in Gaza have been killed by Israel since October 2023.
Doctor Liav Goldstein is the Chief Medical Officer in the Israel Prison Service. He has been one of the key figures in the starvation of Palestinian prisoners, and denial of medical help.
Anti-Zionist activists gathered to protest in front of his home in Modi'in.
Today is the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.
Around 10,000 Palestinians are held in Israeli prisons, including 3,500 people imprisoned without charge or trial and at least 340 children. Plus thousands more disappeared in Gaza.
UN experts and human rights organisations have documented allegations of torture, starvation, medical neglect and sexual violence against Palestinian detainees, warning that accountability is urgently needed.
Torture is never justified. Silence is never neutral.
Join APAN in demanding justice for Palestinian prisoners and an end to impunity.
Become an APAN member. Help strengthen the movement for Palestinian freedom.
As Torah Jews, we say that we stand with the Palestinian people.
Perverted Zionism is never Judaism, and the Zionist regime can never be representative of the Jewish people.
Before the establishment of Israel, the Jewish community lived peacefully as neighbors with Muslims and Christians in the Holy Land.
We pray every day for those beautiful days to come again.
We stand with the Palestinian people. Israel does not represent Torah Jews. Israel is not the state of the Jews. Our hearts are shattered over the loss of so much innocent life. It pains us to the core how this is all carried out in the name of Jewish people. We want peace. We want to live in harmony. Like our grandparents did for centuries. May GD uplift the broken, heal the injured & finally bring upon peace to His world.
@JJKALE2 I'm beginning to wonder if Segal's gave is permanently frozen im with that snotty, sneering, supercilious look. It's as luchando a face as Scott Bessent's.
I can't help but grimace every time if flashes before me.

How will you go on with your day when you hear about a father in Gaza, trapped beneath the rubble, begging rescuers not to save him?
Not because he had lost hope in life, but because he could hear the final breaths of his daughters beneath the debris. Their tiny hands were still holding his in the darkness, as if calling for him one last time. He was the father who had always been their safe haven, yet this time he was powerless to pull them from the dust and shattered concrete.
Only his head was visible above the ruins. He looked into the eyes of the rescuers with a gaze exhausted by fear and helplessness and said:
"Leave me... my daughters are here... I do not want to come out alone."
What heart can endure such a scene? What language can possibly describe the pain of a father who realizes he is losing his daughters one by one, while holding their hands until they grow cold, unable to offer rescue, comfort, or even one final embrace?
How will your day continue after hearing this story? How will you sit peacefully at your table, or smile at something trivial, knowing that somewhere there is a father whose last wish was not to survive alone?
And the question that continues to haunt the conscience of humanity remains:
How much pain must the world witness before it hears the cry of a single father in Gaza?

@poljazz1@MaryKostakidis Not really. Many major European countries are now getting serious about boycotting Israeli settlement products for a start & also on the road to cutting more links with Israel proper - including banning Israeli flights in their airspace
We should be following the Spanish lead
