Thank you @SkyNews and @Chesh for this important if depressing reporting:

Rogue state

Yes a British mosque is exactly same as a an Israeli arms factory producing bombs for a genocide, and antiwar protesters are exactly the same as far-right racists.

Why do the dumbest, most
dishonest people on earth all congregate on here with paid-for blue checkmarks?

Since I started my work in the field of human rights in 2014, I have submitted my resignation multiple times after each Israeli offensive on Gaza. After having done my duties as a human rights advocate and -before anything else- as a human being, I fell into depression resulting from desperation over international inaction towards war crimes, and for weeks, sometimes even months, I felt we were screaming into the void. I was known for submitting resignations after each attack until it turned into a joke at the organisation and among my colleagues.

As we move to close the physical space of our Euro-Med Monitor (@EuroMedHR) Gaza office, fearing for the safety of our staff following an escalating Israeli campaign in retaliation for our documentation of Israeli abuses, and most recently the release of our report on sexual violence in Israel’s places of detention, I came across this message sent by my manager on the morning of 7 October 2023. Jokingly, he said: “I’m telling you from now, your resignation will be rejected,” and then followed it with another message: “If you stay alive, of course"

I sent him the screenshot this morning, reminding him that I “happened to” stay alive, but that, bizarrely, I haven’t submitted my resignation, not during the genocide, not following the ceasefire agreement, and not even now, as an Israeli incitement campaign is escalating.

While the world was looking away as a genocide was being livestreamed on their screens, I questioned the point of our work countless times. As I quietly recited the Shahada (the statement of faith before death) each time I entered a school to document testimonies, I questioned whether the world actually deserved more evidence to finally acknowledge that the target was everything called Palestinian, not just a certain political or armed group.

I had so many existential questions, but, to my astonishment (and that of my colleagues), not even once did I submit my resignation. With each human rights defender, activist, or journalist targeted, I came to realise more and more that something about them was annoying the perpetrators. And for the first time in my life, I found a purpose in what I want to be; that if I couldn’t stop war criminals, I want to live the rest of my life annoying them.

As we close the door to our beloved Gaza office, we have finally, more than ever, found a purpose in continuing what we do by all means, under all circumstances.

Well done to this local resident for speaking up against the enablers of racism in his neighborhood.

Israel is destroying every single home in the southern 40 miles of Lebanon.

This is not “targeting Hezbollah strongholds.”

These are Christian villages and Sunni villages and Shia villages where people have lived for centuries.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

But the other three didn’t - and the one who did wasn’t convicted of intentionally doing so. The terrorism sentencing added on without telling the jury should be seen as an outrage for anyone interested in basic British liberty and fairness.

You were part of a government that murdered tens of thousands of people and then you went on TV to justify those murders.

Everything they told you about China and Russia is actually true of Israel

Zionist meddling is a national security emergency

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

This is what happens when you oppose Israel. Their bought henchmen like Rubio try to deport you. Or Keir Starmer bans you from his country. The west is occupied by Israel. It’s sickening that Israel runs our countries and the morons in the national media pretend not to notice.

[Dr. Ezzideen @ezzingaza]

There are moments in Gaza when suffering becomes so ordinary that people stop asking for solutions.

They begin asking only for the smallest relief. A little less pain.

A child who sleeps through the night.

When I entered the clinic that morning, I noticed a young woman carrying a baby so small that I could not tell whether the child was a newborn or simply made tiny by hardship.

When her turn came, she gently placed the baby on my desk and said:

“I want any cream you have.” Any cream. Not a specific medicine. Not a particular treatment.

Just anything.

She uncovered the baby and showed me the severe rash covering much of the child’s fragile skin.

“I treat the baby with whatever free creams I can find in clinics,” she explained.

“Anything helps.”

As she spoke, I noticed something else. The baby was not wearing a diaper. Only pieces of cloth.

I asked why.

“I can’t afford diapers,” she replied calmly. “I wash these and use them again.”

Then she added that they were living in a tent and that her husband had suffered a serious foot injury and was unable to work.

“I’m not asking for much,” she said.

“I only want a cream.”

But what caught my attention most was not the rash.

It was the malnutrition.

The baby was severely underweight. The kind of malnutrition that is visible before any examination even begins.

So I asked the mother whether she had noticed.

She nodded. “Yes, I know.”

Then she said something I cannot forget: “When the baby gets older, things will get better.”

Not because she truly believed it.

But because hope was cheaper than treatment.

And treatment was something she could no longer afford. That was the moment that broke me.

Not the tent. Not the poverty. Not even the illness.

But the fact that this mother had lowered her expectations so much that she no longer dreamed of proper medical care, diapers, or adequate nutrition.

She came asking for the smallest thing she could imagine. A tube of cream.

Any cream.

Something that might make the baby hurt a little less.

The baby could not have been more than five months old.

Too young to understand war. Too young to understand poverty. Yet already carrying both on that tiny body.

There is something profoundly cruel about a world in which a mother’s greatest hope for her child is no longer a better future.

Only a little less suffering tonight.

A doctor kidnapped from a besieged hospital, tortured and held without charge for over 500 days, would surely be called a HOSTAGE.

Unless he’s Palestinian.

[Candace Owens @RealCandaceO]

I’m noticing a theme… everything Zionists have accused Russia of, Israel is actually involved in.
An Israeli citizen, Ori Solomon, was operating illegal bio labs in Las Vegas.
Now we learn Israel is interfering in elections.

Color me shocked.
Bolshevism became Zionism.
