Israeli parliament advances death penalty bill backed by Ben-Gvir
www.reuters.com/world/middle...

This bill legalizes murder.
Military courts = rubber stamps.

Israel must be stopped and held accountable for crimes against humanity and genocide.

DUTY TO PROTECT STILL APPLIES.
JERUSALEM, Nov 11 (Reuters) - The Israeli parliament has advanced a bill that would mandate the death penalty for Palestinian militants convicted of killing Israeli citizens, with some lawmakers believing it would prevent future prisoner-release deals. In a vote held late on Monday - the first of several needed for the measure to become law - the bill passed with 39 in favour and 16 against, out of 120 lawmakers. The Reuters Gulf Currents newsletter brings you the latest on geopolitics, energy and finance in the region. Sign up here. Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir had called on all political factions to back the bill, which he has said was aimed at creating deterrence against "Arab terrorism".

I see people looking back to Marx etc for direction lately. Remember that the US has had its own beautiful movements, we don't need everyone going off to invent their own wheels.

INTRODUCTION Serving the People Body and Soul Over three days in the spring of 1972, the Black Panther Party, the radical political organization that had emerged in Oakland, California, almost six years prior, held a Black Community Survival Conference — a gathering that combined elements of a rally, a street fair, and a block party — in that city’s De Fremery Park.1 On March 27, standing before a large banner carrying the slogan “Serve the People Body and Soul,” the Party’s chairman and cofounder Bobby Seale spoke on a public address system to the assembled mass of Panther loyalists, political allies, locals, police, and passers-by about the organization’s slate of free community service programs. These “survival programs” were established partly to help poor blacks cope with the surveillance and harassment they experienced at the hands of agents of a mounting “law-and-order” state. These programs were also intended as a stopgap solution to the diminished provision of social services by a shrinking welfare state. Against a backdrop of barbecuing; children’s presentations on black and radical history; speeches by members of other activist groups, such as Johnnie Tillman of the National Welfare Rights Organization; a performance by the pioneering a cappella group the Persuasions, and other entertainment, Party cadre and volunteers distributed information about more than a dozen no-cost community service initiatives, including escorts for senior citizens to medical appointments, free elementary (end of page)

"there may be creative solutions to avoid maintaining caves of cheese below ground" is incredible

But you also need to be furious.

Please look up groups near you that help out with food:
www.findhelp.org

These groups all need labor and resources. Get help if you need it, give help if you can.
It seems that we should not be asking people if they “got milk?” and instead think about how to use up the existing cheese supply without adding to it. The funds used to subsidize the overproduction of dairy and maintain “cheese caves” may be better spent elsewhere. Smaller farms should be included when the government does subsidize dairy, and there may be creative solutions to avoid maintaining caves of cheese below ground. It is important that special interests do not acquire billions annually for an industry that knowingly overproduces, not to mention pollutes the environment, in the face of declining consumption. Instead, the government should help these farmers transition to more in-demand crops instead of pushing less healthy ones into the stomachs of Americans.

I don't know if this has been covered much, I am very drained & have been watching instead of reading news

Al Jazeera English didn't mention this on 20-strike-day, but the Arabic broadcast did
خامسا: المعتقلون المفرج عنهم يواصل الاحتلال تعنّته وتأخّره في الإفراج عن النساء والأطفال الذين ما زالوا رهن الاعتقال. 2. لم يلتزم الاحتلال حتى تاريخه بتزويد الحركة بكشف دقيق وشامل بأسماء وبيانات المعتقلين في سجونه، ولا بأسماء مئات الشهداء الذين لا يزال يحتجز جثامينهم. 3. لم يلتزم الاحتلال بالسماح لذوي المعتقلين المفرج عنهم والمبعدين خارج فلسطين -في صفقتي 19 يناير و9 أكتوبر- بمغادرة الضفة الغربية للقاء ذويهم. 4. تعرض المعتقلون للضرب والإهانة والتعذيب الممنهج، وحتى من تم الإفراج عنهم استمر الاحتلال في إهانتهم وتجويعهم وضربهم حتى لحظة تسليمهم للصليب الأحمر. Fifth: Released Detainees The occupation continues its intransigence and delay in releasing the women and children who remain in detention. 2. To date, the occupation has not committed to providing the movement with an accurate and comprehensive list of the names and data of the detainees in its prisons, nor the names of the hundreds of martyrs whose bodies it still holds. 3. The occupation has not committed to allowing the families of the released detainees and those deported outside Palestine - in the January 19 and October 9 deals - to leave the West Bank to meet their families. 4. The detainees were subjected to beatings, humiliation, and systematic torture. Even those who were released were continued to be humiliated, starved, and beaten by the occupation until they were handed over to the Red Cross

Time is in CST, this was posted about 40m ago. I haven't found a second source for the picture, so take that as you will.

To me, this is still not adequate warning
and the problem with the yellow line is less its previous invisibility
and more that an IOF murder line is blocking people's movement
Today at 2:34 AM (CST) About four yellow concrete cubes and a few yellow signs are sitting in a small cleared area before damaged buildings in Gaza. The color can be distinguished from the hellish gray-dust color that coats everything now, but it doesn't stand out as much as one might expect from life or death warning markers. Screen translation of the text at the bottom of the post: "This morning, the occupation army began drawing a yellow line inside the Gaza Strip with cement cubes, which means we will lose more than half of the area of our Strip on the ground. According to the statement, any approach by residents will be met with fire"

The ‘Conscience’ was attacked by Israeli military drones earlier this year in European waters. Now in international waters, our vessel carries 92 people of conscience, mostly medical and media professionals. Our vessel is currently being attacked by an Israeli military helicopter while the 8 sailboats are being illegally intercepted and hijacked.

Others reported a lack of access to clean drinking water and described the available water as unsafe or of poor quality. While Adalah has not received any direct communication from the authorities regarding imminent deportations, we have confirmed that a Turkish plane departed today - coordinated by the Turkish Embassy in Tel Aviv - carrying 137 participants from several countries, including Turkey, Italy, the United States, the United Kingdom, Kuwait, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Mauritania, Libya, Jordan, Switzerland, Bahrain and Malaysia.

A Turkish activist from the Global Sumud Flotilla recounted the mistreatment they faced under Israeli detention, saying they were deprived of medicine and food, and subjected to psychological torment as Israeli forces stormed their rooms with dogs and snipers. The activist said the experience revealed “only a glimpse of what Palestinians endure under Israeli occupation.”

GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ISRAEL'S LIES CONTINUE DESPITE THE GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA'S HUMANITARIAN AID BEING A DOCUMENTED FACT October 3, 2025 Two years into a genocide, Ben-Gvir and Israel's stance that the Global Sumud Flotilla carried little to no humanitarian aid is not just verifiably false; it is obscene. The boats were meticulously documented, loaded with medical supplies, food, and other life-saving goods for people in Gaza being systematically starved by Israel. Journalists, human rights monitors, parliamentarians, and aid organizations have shown undeniable evidence of the aid on board. Israel's denial is nothing more than another entry in a long record of lies that media outlets must stop laundering through phrases like "Israel says." The Global Sumud Flotilla has always been clear: our mission is to break the blockade and open a humanitarian corridor for sustained aid deliveries. The supplies we carried were both real and representative: real because they were urgently needed, and representative because civilian ships cannot carry the full scale of aid Gaza requires, which only becomes possible once the blockade is lifted. Israel's disinformation is not new. This is the same regime that claimed it was not bombing hospitals, not starving Palestinians, not obstructing convoys, not executing civilians and aid workers, not burying 15 paramedics and their ambulances in a shallow grave. Every one of those lies has been exposed-as we've seen repeatedly, every accusation is a confession from the Israeli government. Human rights organizations, UN agencies, and countless photos, videos, and testimonies confirm the truth: Israel is deliberately weaponizing hunger, blocking aid, bombing food distribution centers, and condemning families to death by starvation. To repeat Israel's falsehoods today is to be complicit in covering up genocide. Media outlets must finally break from the reflex of treating Israeli statements as credible. There is no journalistic obligation to amplify propaganda that has been disproven again and again, at the cost of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian lives. This systematic smear campaign being waged against the flotilla is not about aid; it is about Israel trying to erase the evidence of its crimes by delegitimizing those who seek to uphold international law. The truth cannot be erased. The images of famine, skeletal children, empty shelves, and desperate families under siege are seared into the world's conscience The facts are clear: the flotilla carried humanitarian aid, Gaza is being deliberately starved, and Israel is perpetrating a genocide. It is the duty of the international community to stop perpetuating Israel's lies and start acting to end its blockade, its famine, and its genocide.

GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA UPDATES FOLLOWING ILLEGAL INTERCEPTION AND ABDUCTION OF VOLUNTEERS October 2, 2025 MEDITERRANEAN SEA - After Israeli occupation naval forces illegally intercepted vessels of the Global Sumud Flotilla -a peaceful, non-violent convoy carrying food, baby formula, medicine, and volunteers from 47 countries to Gaza-hundreds of participants have been abducted and reportedly taken aboard the large naval vessel, the MSC Johannesburg. This was after they were assaulted with water cannons, doused with skunk water, and had their communications systematically jammed in yet more acts of aggression against unarmed civilians. Additionally, several boats were reportedly stopped by a chain-like barrier in international waters where Israel has no jurisdiction, just as they have no jurisdiction over Gaza's waters and shoreline, compounding Israel's continued war crimes and illegal blockade. Adalah lawyers, who represent the flotilla participants before Israeli authorities, have been given minimal updates and have not been informed on whether the estimated 443 flotilla volunteers, who were forcibly taken from their vessels, will arrive at Ashdod, where they are expected to be processed under illegal detention. This is an unlawful abduction, in direct violation of international law and basic human rights. Intercepting humanitarian vessels in international waters is a war crime; denying legal counsel and concealing the fate of those seized compounds that crime. We demand that governments, world leaders, and international institutions immediately intervene to secure information on the missing participants, guarantee their safety, and demand their immediate release. Our commitment remains clear: to break Israel's illegal siege and end the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people. Every act of repression against our flotilla, every escalation of violence in Gaza, and every attempt to suppress solidarity actions only strengthen our resolve. Mikeno, sailing under the French flag, may have entered Palestinian territorial waters according to AIS data, but remains out of contact. Marinette, sailing under the Polish flag, is still connected via Starlink and in communication, carrying a total of 6 passengers on board. Continued...

Thiago responded firmly: we are a peaceful, nonviolent humanitarian mission.
