At Tel Aviv University’s med school graduation this week, Dr. Yael Harari opened her gown to reveal:
“First Do No Genocide” — a bold twist on the Hippocratic Oath — calling out Israel’s GazaGenocide right on stage.
Courage in action. ✊🏼

The connection between Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the USA’s murder of Venezuelans is the desire on the part of both states and their fascist leaders to exercise unchecked power, including the power to kill at will without justification or consequence. We should all be frightened.

While there is "some joy" in knowing that bombs have stopped falling on Gaza, Israeli historian Ilan Pappé warns that many Israeli leaders remain committed to using violence in order to "wipe out Palestine as a nation, as a people and as a country."

“To call what Israel is doing in Gaza genocide is simply to speak the truth. Efforts to say otherwise deny the reality of what everyone can plainly see. To compare the current Israeli government to the Nazis is not antisemitism, as it might perhaps once have been, but bitter justice.” - Kevin Power

A government or a party that has no measure of accountability for failure is not a functional one. In a functional administration, all of these people would be blacklisted for the rest of their careers at the very least, not angling for new jobs.

Some are changing positions because of Trump’s approach to Israel, and a few are wrestling with whether they could have done more when in charge.

What is happening in Gaza is genocide.
Those enabling it—lawmakers sending arms to Israel, officials giving it cover at the UN and international courts, the lobby groups demanding such support—aren’t just accomplices, but full participants in a crime against humanity.
They must be held to account.
