And why? Because they can and nobody is stopping them. That’s literally it. Our Palestinian, Lebanese, and Iranian (etc.) peers should never be policed for their language when such inconceivable and unwarranted evil is happening to their lands in real time.

Breaking News: Israel said it planned to expand the territory it controls in Lebanon, suggesting it might remain there beyond the fighting. nyti.ms/4bLwgRg

Palantir is a priority BDS target. The Palestinian-led BDS movement calls for forming broad intersectional coalitions to lead contract exclusion campaigns, peaceful disruptions, and other creative forms of pressure on institutions contracting Palantir.

It’s frustrating how the average American can’t fully grasp this kind of loss because war is intentionally designed to feel abstract and something “othered” because it’s not happening on US soil. There’s barely any understanding of what widespread infrastructure collapse even looks or feels like. It’s become this “them vs. us” even though that “them” is often created by us. Perhaps also because US media focuses on governments + militaries during wartime while outlets like Al Jazeera focus on people, forcing you to see them as us. I wonder how empathy in the West would look if conditions were reversed. Empathy is kind of the only reason we don’t kill each other. What would it mean to actually understand that the other person could be me.

I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.

1 in 7 people are now displaced in lebanon. i really despise having to always contextualize our suffering for the west but please imagine 1.1 million people in nyc trying to find a place to hide from airstrikes, and when they finally find a tent on the street, thats bombed too.

Colonizers have always portrayed resistance as terrorism, savagery, and barbarism. They love to play the victim of the so-called savagery of the colonized and use this perpetual victimhood to justify countless genocides.

"The sniper who shot my friend Jihan's 3 year old daughter Noor, shattering her tiny legs while she was in her mother's arms in Gaza, is a hateful, racist ghoul -- I understand that's one of the things I've been criticized for saying. And I double up on it, frankly. But the rage, the disgust even hatred that Jihan or I feel toward that sniper is not racism. It is not anti-Jewishness. It is not anti semitism. Nor are her feelings toward the tank operator who blew out the back of her son Arhab's head, making her fingers sink into his brains when she tried to pick him up. Our feelings or words in response to 78 years of this barbaric, colonial violence are not 'reprehensible.' They are not antisemitic. And they are not anti Jewish. In fact, despite everything they have done to us -- despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of Jews both inside & outside of Israel support this zionist carnage & domination -- we still have the tender human sense to recognize those Jews, however a minority they may be, who do not support Israel. And to embrace the far smaller minority who are anti zionist, in fact."

Arundhati Roy -- "At the height of the genocide in Gaza, the government of India sent thousands of poor Indian workers to Israel to replace expelled Palestinian workers. Today, while Israelis take shelter in bunkers, it is being reported that those Indian workers are not allowed into those shelters. What the hell does all this mean? Who has put us into this absolutely humiliating, shameless, disgusting place in the world?" zeteo.com/p/iran-is-not-… #India #IranWar
