For Israeli police, humiliating Palestinian women is a tool of collective repression - https://www.972mag.com/israeli-police-palestinian-women-humiliation-arrests/
For Israeli police, humiliating Palestinian women is the point
Political arrests of Palestinian women in Israel — who face strip-searches, blindfolding, and doxxing — send the community a clear message.

I know so many Jewish Trump supporters who must also be fans of Musk. I'm wondering how their brains are trying to convince themselves it's OK that Musk wants AFD to win the German election.

🧵 Former Israeli Defense Minister, Bogie Ya’alon, made a lot of noise this week with his remarks on ethnic cleansing in Gaza. Tonight he came on the popular ‘Ofira and Levinson’ show and sort of held on? I’m a bit confused, tbh…

Two things:
1- This is a photo taken today of the new military checkpoint which families from Beit Lahia and Jabalia and Beit Hanoun must go through when they evacuate. That’s where two in laws of mine were kidnapped along with two cousins of my wife.

When a military operation
-Displaces almost entire society and forces it into unsafe shelters
-Severely limits access to food, water, fuel
-Destroys most housing and public infrastructure inc hospitals
-Offers no plan for alternative governance

It inevitably leads to the eradication of that society

Netanyahu’s boycott of Haaretz won’t stop us reporting the grim truth about Israel’s wars | Aluf Benn
Unlike most Israeli news outlets, my paper shows the suffering in Gaza and Lebanon. That’s why the government has targeted us * Aluf Benn is the editor-in-chief of Haaretz “Truth is the first casualty of war” goes the old cliche, but like any other…

Haaretz will survive Netanyahu’s illegal attack. But Israelis who want to live in a democracy must understand that this clampdown on journalism is just a waystation in a well documented autocratic playbook

Israel’s government, which still describes itself as democratic, has passed a resolution sanctioning the Haaretz newspaper over its publisher’s comments at the paper’s conference in London last month

The opportunist resolution to boycott Haaretz, which passed in today's government meeting without legal review, is another step in Netanyahu's journey to dismantle Israeli democracy
