Through daily harassment, killing, house demolition and eviction, the Israeli government is trying to provoke a Palestinian uprising in the West Bank.
Their aim is to repeat in the West Bank what was done in Gaza, and, if possible, orchestrate mass expulsion to Jordan.

Disappointed to learn Bad Bunny wore Zara, effectively promoting the brand to millions. Although Zara has made admirable strides to address labor conditions, fast fashion can never be ethical because it depends on rapid production and cheap prices, which results in worker exploitation.

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

If you listen carefully to Zionists, they don't deny ethnic cleansing, apartheid or genocide so much as defend these policies as perhaps unfortunate, but ultimately justified in order to establish a Jewish state.
