My latest report from Qusra, where Israeli settlers continue to besiege 3 Palestinian homes, 1 of which is owned by a US citizen.
The IDF has so far failed to remove the settlers & is now deploying a battalion.
We tried to reach the residents, but Israeli soldiers stopped us.

A Palestinian family is besieged by the IDF and settler terrorists in Qusra, in the West Bank. No one is allowed in or out: no food, no ambulances, no journalists. This is a new method for carrying out the same policy: forcing Palestinians off their land. Here’s how it works🧵

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

Unfolding right now in the West Bank: a Palestinian family is besieged by settlers, with the support of Israeli soldiers.
They've been unable to leave their home for days. Reporters and activists who tried to reach the home yesterday were blocked by settlers & IDF

El-Sayed lost to Whitmer by 22 points in 2018. Seven years later, he launched a Senate campaign with four staffers, often speaking to near-empty rooms.

15 months later, he overcame more than $60 million in spending to win. My final dispatch from Detroit:

[Peter Beinart @PeterBeinart]

Because El-Sayed won by a smaller than expected margin, people may now underestimate what an extraordinary campaign he ran. How many senate candidates get outspent that dramatically and still win? His campaign offers a model for how Democrats reclaim both nationalism and populism https://t.co/q1mnQgyzyn

Israel blocks ambulances in the West Bank again.

Shoots Palestinians, then seals off medical access so they bleed out and die.

Deliberate. Sadistic. State policy.

X thought this video was too graphic for you to see & needed to be hidden.

But reality can be graphic, especially when civilians are being killed, and people’s homes, cars, and places of worship are being destroyed.

We should face that reality.

NOW: I have set up an exploratory committee about running for Congress.

I hope to make a decision soon.

I hope people will volunteer to help.

Urgent message and call to prayer.
'Every day we wake up wondering which Palestinian village will be attacked next. We are exhausted. We live in fear and terror.'
Settler violence in the West Bank has become a daily, relentless reality. Families attacked in their homes. Farms burned. People killed. And Palestinians left defenseless with no protection and no accountability.
I do not want to share statistics. I am tired of numbers.
'We're not numbers. We're not headlines. We're talking about mothers, fathers, children, grandparents — with names, with stories, with futures that are being cut short.'
He calls us to pray. Not as a substitute for justice — but because we believe God hears the cry of the oppressed.
I call on you to act. To speak. To write. To mobilize. To refuse to look away.
'We owe it to every family living in fear today. We also owe it to our faith.'

The Israeli army has intentionally destroyed part of the water plant infrastructure in the town of Markaba. This is a war crime and an act of genocide. Israel systematically targets civilian infrastructure in Lebanon.

Genocide is defined under Article Il of the 1948 UN Genocide Convention as any act committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group. One of the five acts is “deliberately imposing destructive life conditions.”

Remember that more than 65 towns and villages in Lebanon are still under Israeli occupation and are still undergoing daily illegal civilian home and infrastructure demolition.

[B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم @btselem]

Urgent call to the international community to take immediate action to stop Israel's violence and prevent pogroms by settler militias and the Israeli army across the West Bank.

In recent days, violence by settler militias, enabled and supported by the Israeli army, has escalated across the West Bank, including the torching and destruction of Palestinian property, and the forced expulsion of families and communities. These attacks have been met with silence and inaction from much of the international community, allowing the violence to continue and intensify.

Today's event in the village of Tell (Area B) when a settlers' "tour" in the village ended with the killing of at least 4 Palestinians and 1 settler and several people injured is leading to escalated violence in the area with settlers, ministers, and Knesset members calling for further revenge attacks which already started across the West Bank. Experience shows that these events can escalate quickly into mass pogroms when met with silence.

We call the international community to act now. Immediate pressure must be placed on Israel to stop further attacks, prevent pogroms and further killings, and ensure the protection of Palestinians, in accordance with Israel's obligations under international law.
