Rafah crossing - despite it being 'open' today, BBC world service reported that nobody will be allowed in to Gaza (despite 70k reported to be waiting to return).
No goods to be allowed in.
almost as if Israel wants to empty Gaza....

"Do you trust the Chinese govt?"

Is a minister ever asked if they trust the Israeli govt? If they don't, why is Israel an ally & why are we arming them? And if the answer is yes, why do we trust a govt led by a wanted war criminal?

I guess that's why the question isn't asked

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Israel has suddenly accepted the official Gaza death toll.

That's after over two years of claiming that it's 'Hamas propaganda'.

The truth? The figure is so much higher 👇

Activists unveiled a giant portrait of five-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab in Barcelona on the second anniversary of her killing.

Hind was trapped in a car and targeted at close range by Israeli forces in Gaza after they had killed her relatives.

Labor’s Anne Aly distinctly not supportive of genocide supporter Zionist Herzog visiting Australia. Resolutely sticking to her generic script. You really have to question the @albomp.bsky.social judgement on this. It’s a colossal mistake. #RNBreakfast

A NYT reporter wanted to speak to me about what's happening in Minneapolis and I told them unequivocally no due to the NYT's role in creating the environment that has done so much harm to trans youth.
It’s important to keep calling out the nyt for its years of bias and dishonesty on trans issues. It legitimized hate and handed Trump a potent campaign message in 24. He seized on that hate and is now wielding it against immigrants, women, ppl of color, queer ppl, disabled ppl, critics

Israel needs to be kicked out of the United Nations. It's absurd that it can ignore International law because it bribed or blackmailed corrupt politicians in the failing United States. As the US implodes, maybe other nations will finally stand up for humanity and throw them out...
