Israel is planning to drive out Gaza’s surviving population using the cover of media silence. Meanwhile, despite a supposed ‘ceasefire’, it is burning children alive in tents, killing little kids as they collect firewood, & refusing to let in aid.

The IDF reportedly killed 2 kids getting firewood for their wheelchair-bound father. 300+ Palestinians have been killed since the ceasefire began. We still need the Block the Bombs Act to hold the IDF accountable and push for adherence to the ceasefire.

the debt created by these acquisitions is so massive, the acquiring companies inevitably look immediately toward all sorts of layoffs, causing a cannibalization of service and brand quality.

1) i didn't write this article, PPI did
2) yes, i think this bill is a bad idea and will likely end clemency. it matters because clemency is for people who don't have any other way to get released. Leonard Peltier had no other option.
