With Trump’s outlandish claims to Greenland, Canada, and now Gaza we are seeing more open colonialism.

Rhetoric about ownership shows entitlement of white western leaders. This isn’t new, other western countries have their colonial projects. Trump doesn’t dress it up.

“I could no longer chair a branch that did not treat Palestinians as equal partners, and I could not sign off on a critique of Amnesty’s report that pretends to be an expert minority opinion, but is instead little more than the expression of an Israeli-Jewish worldview.”

Why I resigned as chairman of Amnesty Israel
Amnesty Israel cannot claim to defend human rights in israel without having adequate Palestinian representation among its leadership.

Twitter posts no longer have timestamps. That's exactly what you want on a network built on being a realtime information source. Possibly the worst to ever do it in social media

Doomsday is looming in the occupied West Bank, and the PA carries on as usual

Keir Starmer’s continued minimisation & dismissal of Palestinian suffering in Gaza is shameful.

As Palestinians & those in solidarity, grieve, rage & weep at atrocities, ethnic cleansing, extermination & genocide they endure or witness, this is how the Prime Minister responds.
