VIDEO | "I received direct threats targeting me on my phone from the Mossad, from the Israelis, and they threatened to kill me. They were literally saying they would sever my head from my shoulders if I didn’t leave south Lebanon." In an interview recorded before her targeted killing, Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil, from the southern village of Baysariyyeh, reflects on the threats she received while covering Israeli aggression in south Lebanon for Al-Akhbar. "Before 23 September, I definitely didn’t take precautions and I didn’t pay attention to these threats, because I said if I’m going to do what they want, why would I let the Israeli enemy impose its own narrative on me? It brings journalists onto my land and promotes the narrative it wants, while preventing me from moving freely on my own land." Amal Khalil, along with her colleague Zeinab Faraj, was deliberately attacked and subsequently killed by Israel yesterday in the southern Lebanese village of Tayri. Zeinab Faraj was severely injured and, as per latest reports, remains in stable condition after undergoing emergency surgery.

Our colleague Amal Khalil, a brave reporter who has been covering Israeli attacks on Lebanon for the past years was targeted along another colleague Zeinab Faraj while doing their job in south Lebanon. Emergency services succeeded in rescuing Zeinab with injuries along with two casualties. Amal is still under rubble, the Red Cross tried to get closer, yet another Israeli attack pushed them back.

aw this is so cute. speaking of buses do you all remember when Obama sent a 500-pound, laser-guided MK-82 bomb to hit a school bus in Yemen, killing 40 children on their way to a field trip.

Open access to "The Palestinians: From Peasants to Revolutionaries," by my amazing mother, Rosemary Sayigh, who turned an impressive 99 this month. Published in 1979, it went thru several reprints & translations and remains a landmark book: michaelharrison.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

Latest article on the super-exploitation and resistance of Palestinian prisoners at Nur Shams prison labor camp, used by the British occupation forces in Palestine from 1919-1948 and transformed into a refugee camp after 1948 palestine-studies.org/sites/default/…

6months into so-called ceasefire in #Gaza: 733 Palestinians killed; 80% fewer aid trucks; aid agencies locked out & supplies blocked; 2000+ violations by Israel; Palestinian technical committee still can't access the strip; Israeli forces still control half of Gaza; no reconstruction.

In honor of the forthcoming annual Palestinian Prisoners’ Day, I am sharing my translation of several recent essays authored by writers from the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement—some rank-and-file mujahideen, others political writers, activists, or poets, and one (in the case of Zaher Jabarin, who oversees the movement’s prisoners file) who is part of the political bureau’s Executive Committee. All are united in their having spent significant periods inside the occupation’s carceral system. These articles were culled from the underground publication, “Nabd al-Qayd” (The Pulse of the Prison), a quarterly magazine whose masthead notes that it is “aimed at young people concerned with prisoner issues” and is run by editor-in-chief Nawaf al-Amer, who spent 42 years imprisoned by the occupation. The essays, one of which is excerpted below and all of which can be accessed by the link in the comments section, are exemplary of the resistance’s “prison writing” genre. The writers include Zaher Jabarin, Izz al-Din Amarneh, Motasem Taysir Kamel Samara, Alaa Ahmad Khalil al-Hameedan, Sufyan Jamjoum, and Sari Sammour. I have excerpted a particularly poetic work of resistance literature. EXCERPT: “The Birth of Freedom for Prisoners Between Two Worlds (Wombs and Tunnels)” by Alaa Ahmad Khalil al-Hameedan “He was forcefully banging on the prison walls from behind three, no, four layers of darkness! His tongue was calling out: “Mother, give me freedom, for my country, for my religion.” He represents the captive fetus whose mother insisted on giving birth to him and endowing him with the gift of freedom. And here he was, the reason for the prisoners’ liberation! He is the Palestinian newborn (Alaa), son of the free prisoner Anhar Al-Deek, who took up the cause of freedom and independence. Wielding her pen, she wrote her message as an urgent telegram for her loyal Palestinian people, who would rise up to adopt her just cause. The will [of freedom and independence] from the imprisoned fetus was even stronger! It was as if he was expressing a new generation! His heartbeat and cries were louder than the voice of the jailer, and his free voice reached the world! He was not alone in that darkness. On the other side, there were six prisoners entombed in the earth’s womb, carefully plotting the moment of their birth. They sought freedom and had made an appointment with the sun! They sought help from Almighty God and, wielding a sharp blade, lacerated the neck of that which was deemed impossible! With their minds, they cracked the code of the Gilboa “vault.” With their fists, they knocked on the walls of silence. With their nails, they dug a tunnel deep into the darkness. And they crawled to seize their right to freedom and life, to liberate their people from the shackles with which they were weighed down to the earth! They were the creators of hope and birth, and a shining example of how to wrest freedom from the grips of oppression and the depths of oblivion, travelers on the road to liberating Palestine. The heroes of the tunnel were not alone at that time, as they were joined by six heroic prisoners who went on hunger strike to fight for their birth, their freedom—freedom for themselves and their people. And so they remained, floating above the darkness of the prison, the twilight of hunger, and the bitterness of deprivation! With their faith and willpower, they cast forth ropes plaited from their intestines, swinging them over the prison walls and towards the heavens, seeking birth and freedom or a path to martyrdom! In doing so, despite the severity of their pain, they exalted the value of freedom, scrawling the following message: Palestinians love freedom and will fight for it to the point of martyrdom!“

رجعنا للحرب بس بدون حرب. أجواء حرب وقصف يومي ومتكرر في الليل والنهار، واستهدافات في قلب الشوارع والمناطق المكتظة ممكن تصيب أي شخص ماشي، وزي ما قتلوا طفل اليوم وهو بجانب سيارة شرطة، بيقتلوا كتير غيره. نفس مشهد الحرب، قصف واستهدافات وأعداد كبيرة من الشهداء، لكن وين الحرب؟ مين بحكي؟ بصمت وبدون تغطية. وكله تحت مسمى وقف إطلاق النار!

Israel killed 303 people and injured 1,150 in yesterday's airstrikes alone. There are people still under the rubble in certain areas, and bodies that have not been identified.

Loud airstrike heard is on dahye, I can see the smoke #Beirut

statement by Iran’s speaker of parliament on the violations of the supposed “ceasefire” agreement Trump announced.

I just saw the horrific footage of what remains of his car on fire. I feel sick every time I think about every precious life Israel has ripped from this earth. Like so many of us, I knew Mohammed’s name and face so well, and it breaks me to know he’s never coming back.

الجيش الإسرائيلي يغتال الصحفي محمد وشاح غربي مدينة غزة. رحمة الله عليه .

Israeli chief-of-staff Zamir: "We will continue until they stop us" Listen to him. Israel will never stop until it is FORCED to stop.

Several airstrikes simultaneously hit Beirut and its southern suburb, hours after a ceasefire that was announced by Pakistani PM @CMShehbaz and claimed to have included Lebanon.

In under 10 minutes, Zionists committed a series of massacres across Lebanon with 100 simultaneous airstrikes. Residential buildings in heavily-populated areas have been targeted/leveled.

From the AP: Iran, along with Oman, are going to apparently still be charging the $2 million toll on ships going through the newly-opened Strait of Hormuz throughout this two-week ceasefire.

This is just Hasbara. Fuck Standing Together and fuck Democracy Now and fuck any and all normalizers of the evil Zionist regime.
