So you're saying if we'd sprayed stuff white and then put a red cross on it the media would have supported us? You live and learn I guess.

Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸
If America was being bombed day and night because of something horrific our government did, and many innocent Americans and American children were being killed and traumatically injured, and we begged for mercy, but the rest of the world said, “Americans voted for their government so they deserve it, their government is bad so all Americans are bad, therefore this is what they get and must be done” And the world was silent to our suffering. And no one came to our aid. And our cities and homes were bombed and turned to rubble. And our infrastructure was destroyed, no farms, no grocery stores, no more organized society. And no one helped our injured and hungry children. How would you feel? What would you think? What would you do? This is what is happening to Gaza where in spite of what we have all been told, many innocent people and children are being killed and they are not Hamas. Does Hamas deserve it? Yes. Do innocent people and children deserve it? No. The innocent people in Gaza did not kill and kidnap the innocent people in Israel on Oct 7th. Just as we spoke out and had compassion for the victims and families of Oct7, how can Americans not speak out and have compassion for the masses of innocent people and children in Gaza? Is one type of innocent life worthy and another type of innocent life worth nothing? For me, I think God sees all innocent lives the same and he loves them all. As a matter of fact, He sent his own son for all people, that’s how much He loves us. America funds Israel $3.8 billion annually for military aid. Actually correction. U.S. taxpayers fund Israel $3.8 billion annually for military aid. That means every U.S. tax payer is contributing to Israel’s military actions. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to pay for genocide in a foreign country against a foreign people for a foreign war that I had nothing to do with. And I will not be silent about it.

Amnesty UK
Amnesty UK@AmnestyUK·
Ahead of Saturday’s Defend Our Juries protests, Amnesty International UK has written to the Met Police Commissioner urging him to instruct officers to comply with the UK’s international obligations and act with restraint in their response to peaceful protesters. It is disproportionate, and a clear violation of the UK’s human rights obligations, to be arresting them and treating them as terrorists. The police should approach these protests in compliance with the international human rights standards that the UK has signed up to. Read the full letter: amn.st/6017fY1z1
