The civilians in Gaza have been suffering unimaginable horrors for so long. They rely on our voice to be heard, and our donations to survive.

Please give to my dear friend Tasneem so she can take care of her children. And find and help others. 🙏

"Palästinensische Zeugen berichteten, dass einige Gefangene noch am Leben waren, als sie für Organentnahme mitgenommen wurden."

"Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs... Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier."

I'm honestly speechless.
Examining the bodies returned to their people after the most recent so-called ceasefire, Palestinian doctors noted that, in some bodies “the rib cage and ribs were clipped with a sharp saw—a medical saw, a bone saw—and the sternum, along with the central part of the ribs, [were] lifted to allow for the removal of the heart and lungs without damage to the organ being taken.” Organ procurement, with few exceptions like skin and cornea, requires that the body be either alive—via brain death—or just-dead—via circulatory death. It is plausible that some Palestinian prisoners’ torture led to brain death. It is also possible their torturers felt no need to wait.

Dammbruch in Migrationspolitik: #Abschiebungen in willkürliche #Drittstaaten werden möglich! Dies hat katastrophale Folgen für Menschenrechte auch in Deutschland. Rassismus und Rechtsruck sind Tür und Tor geöffnet. Passt aufeinander auf unterstützt euch solidarisch in der Krise der Menschlichkeit.
EU-Parlament stimmt für verschärfte Abschiebung: Asylsuchende können künftig in Drittstaaten abgeschoben werden
Künftig sollen EU‑Mitgliedstaaten Menschen in Nicht-EU-Länder abschieben können. Dafür reicht bald ein Abkommen aus. Zudem gibt es erstmals eine EU-weite Liste sicherer Herkunftsstaaten.

»Frontex will israelische Drohnen und Überwachungstechnologien gegen Migrantinnen und Migranten einsetzen, die auch während des Genozids in Gaza zum Einsatz kamen«, schreibt Jacobin Editor Bafta Sarbo.
Die EU-Migrationsabwehr ist nicht besser als ICE
Nach den ICE-Morden in den USA ist das Abgrenzungsbedürfnis in Europa groß. Dabei ist die Migrationsabwehr der EU keineswegs humaner – der Unterschied ist nur, dass die rechtlose Gewalt ins Mittelmeer und nach Nordafrika ausgelagert wird.
