An Israeli blogger shares a trending video titled "Best View to See in 2023," featuring her observing through a telescope the ruins of Gaza, where Israel has destroyed whole residential blocks, killing and displacing thousands of Palestinians.

@GrimKim I just found out-- Blake and I were friends since we were teenagers, he was such a unique, kind person 💔

Just heard the news about Blake Harrison. Truly a tragic loss; his impact on grind is immeasurable and his kindness and true love for the scene will not be forgotten. May he rest easy.

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed. It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long. (Location: Bournemouth Beach)

not sure how the TED organization saw Bill Ackman's racist downward spiral and said "hey let's invite that guy to give a TED Talk," but here we are conferences.ted.com/ted2024/speake…

UPDATE: 6 TED Fellows have now resigned over @TEDTalks inviting genocide apologists Bill Ackman and Bari Weiss to the main stage of the 2024 conference, and over 165 supporters have signed in solidarity! Our latest update: bit.ly/49777OJ

@SunjeevBery @TEDTalks @BillAckman @barryweiss @TEDFellow @ayahbdeir FYI it's @bariweiss! Barry Weiss is someone else

don't forget Bari Weiss

It's beyond disappointing, but very telling just how many organisations that supposedly stand for justice and human rights have been so stupendously off the mark 🤔 #TED really said, 'Genocide? What genocide?' #CeaseFireInGaza #Palestine #TedTalks #CeaseFireAndAidNow

If you would like to stand with us in saying NO to TED giving oxygen to these vocal supporters of the genocide of Palestinians, you can add your name here: bit.ly/47K9wgx

There are no Palestinian speakers on the TED2024 lineup as of now, but even if there were, the Palestinian people's right to exist without threat of violence and annihilation is not a debatable academic idea-- there is one reasonable stance on fascism and that is NO FASCISM
