The fact that Israeli officials haven’t been hauled in front of criminal courts yet is a moral strain on humanity.
Screenshot from Al Jazeera’s reading, “Israel has targeted journalists throughout its two-year genocidal war on Gaza. It is the deadliest conflict for reporters, with more than 270 media workers killed. This toll is higher than the combined figures from World Wars I and II, the Vietnam War, the war in Afghanistan, and the Yugoslav Wars.”

Great work tracking shadowy AIPAC donors in the IL-09 race.

I was told there was a ceasefire, which would lead to the miracle of peace across the Middle East. But here we are again, with Israel violating the agreement just hours after signing it.

The Israeli apartheid regime controls Palestinian joy. This is from Al Jazeera.
Screenshot from an article at Al Jazeera. It reads: Meanwhile, families of Palestinian detainees who have been informed that their sons will be released to the occupied West Bank have also been warned against any kind of celebrations. They will not be allowed to receive well-wishers and to raise any flags or to celebrate the freedom of their sons.

Antony Blinken is an irrelevant piece of shit.
Screenshot from Al Jazeera’s live blog. It reads: “Antony Blinken criticizes plan by France, Canada, and UK to recognise Palestinian state The former US Secretary of State has penned an essay in the Wall Street Journal describing the planned decision by the three countries to recognise a Palestinians state as “morally right”, but arguing that the move is “totally beside the more pressing realities”.”

All condolences to our colleagues at Al Jazeera. This is monstrous.

The Israeli government must be held accountable for its crimes.
Screenshot from Al Jazeera’s website. It reads, “Our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic report that journalists Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqeh were killed along with camera operators Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal were killed in an Israeli strike on Gaza.”

Another tortured western journalist trying to reconcile their role in the subjugation of Palestinians while trying to sell a novel about their experience in Palestine.

Whose trust is so crucial that you maintain? There is no balance in a struggle against colonialist apartheid.
Screenshot of a paragraph from an article by journalist Phoebe Greenwood. It reads, “Western journalists reporting from Palestine did not stop the atrocities because we believed that was not our job, we were there to bear witness. Maintaining our impartiality is crucial if we are to be trusted. But were we not also meant to hold power to account? If we had condemned the US and Europe-backed power we knew was perpetrating these atrocities with the conviction and outrage they deserved, would 60,000 people still have been killed in 21 months?” The sentence “Maintaining our impartiality is crucial if we are to be trusted.” is highlighted.

Repression is rising to shield Israel from accountability. Columbia University suspended more than 70 Palestine activists. PEN America fired Kori Davis. Trump is preparing a federal overhaul that will make this crackdown permanent.

In U.S. politics, Bernie Sanders’ resolutions on weapons sales failed, but showed Palestine is becoming a litmus test in the Democratic Party.

Tareq Hajjaj documents how Israel is engineering chaos in Gaza’s aid system, shooting at civilians, allowing looters to operate so food never reaches the starving.

Qassam Muaddi reports leaked cabinet minutes confirming this was the plan from the start.

The answer, David, is that you helped whitewash decades of crimes by your government, oppressed an entire people, and engaged in blatantly racist colonialism. This blood is on your hands too.
Screenshot from an article at The Guardian that reads, “The award-winning Israeli author David Grossman has described his country’s campaign in Gaza as a genocide and said he now “can’t help” but use the term. “I ask myself: how did we get here?” the celebrated writer and peace activist told the Italian daily La Repubblica in an interview published on Friday.”

Mothers in Gaza are giving their children water in place of milk or baby formula.

A Palestinian mother holds her infant child and, due to the forced starvation Israel is imposing, gives him water instead of milk from a bottle.

The so-called "humanitarian centers" in Gaza are run by a U.S.-created entity. But for Palestinians, they are often sites of terror, not safety.

Herzallah explains why Gazans call them "death centers."

Screenshot of text from the linked article from NPR. It reads: “The hospital had run out of white shrouds to cover the deceased. The dead bodies lying on the hospital floor were covered by the same empty sacks — once filled with flour given out as international aid — that they had taken with them, in the hopes of filling them up with food.”
