13 year old Palestinian boy was raped in an Israeli prison. When the US State Department raised the incident with the Israeli government, the Israeli government stole @DCIPalestine's computers & declared them a terrorist entity for daring to bring the incident to light.
I promised. I delivered. My debunking of Israel’s latest reboot of the 7 October mass-rapes hoax: A "landmark" report built from old claims, liars and grifters, repackaged for complicit media. No victim count. No case list. No evidence of mass rapes. electronicintifada.net/content/israel…
🇱🇧🇮🇱 Israel and Lebanon are talking in Washington and nobody is pretending it's going smoothly. Lebanon's position is straightforward. Stop the fighting first, get Israeli forces out of the south second, and we'll handle Hezbollah's weapons ourselves politically after that. Israel's position is also straightforward. Disarm Hezbollah now and let's talk full normalization, embassies, borders, tourism, everything. Those two starting points are so far apart it's hard to see how you bridge them in a single round of talks. Hezbollah isn't even in the room and wants nothing to do with any of this. A drone hit Israeli civilians hours before the session started. Israel kept striking Lebanon this week, killing 22 people including six children. Lebanon is essentially asking Washington to hand it some leverage because it doesn't have much of its own. The Lebanese president told Trump he won't shake Netanyahu's hand until there's actually something worth celebrating. Trump told him he liked that approach. The ceasefire exists on paper. On the ground it's a different story. Source: NBC NEWS
Not a single stone remains standing, nor a tree, nor a human being—Israel has completely annihilated my town, Beit Hanoun.
This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opi…
