Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

A summary execution among more than 310 UNRWA staff killed in #Gaza. Based on information recently made available to @UNRWA, our colleague Kamal left his home in Rafah on 23 March, wearing his UN vest, and driving a clearly marked UN vehicle. Within an hour, UNRWA lost contact with him. His whereabouts unknown for a week. On 30 March, Kamal’s body was discovered near a mass grave, alongside the human remains of the PRCS humanitarian workers killed by the Israeli Forces. Kamal was killed through one or multiple blows to the back of his skull. He was then buried next to the other @PalestineRCS team members. Despite several requests from UNRWA to the Government of Israel, no response was directly received on Kamal’s death. Kamal worked with UNRWA for over 20 years. He left his wife and children behind. He is one case too many. UNRWA teams are not a target. Impunity opens the door to more atrocities. We call for independent investigations into Kamal’s killing and all other UNRWA staff killed.

A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.

Until they are actually given a fair trial, we should assume that all of the people who Trump disappears are totally innocent, as we would for any other accused criminal.

NEWS: The USAID official put on leave for disseminating two memos about Rubio's failure to push through life-saving foreign aid was in the process of writing a THIRD memo when fired. We obtained it. It's far more alarming than the first two. thebulwark.com/p/what-a-weeke…

We all have that piece of music that gives us chills whenever we hear it, and for me it is Jerry Goldsmith's theme music from Gremlins 2: The New Batch

Har I numre på streaming, hvor I helt selv står for en helt vanvittig %del af lyt? "Sabaly" har været i min rotation i måske 12-14 år og jeg har altid antaget, at det var et kæmpehit. 26.000 plays?? 😮

Alle europæiske regeringschefer i dag:

@JohsEG Og det skal selvfølgelig nævnes, at de dybe splittelser især ved præsidentvalget kommer til udtryk ved en kraftig splittelse mellem de, der foretrækker den ene af de to kandidater, og så den anden af de to kandidaters vælgere. Her er der ikke megen udsigt til enighed.

@esfriis Laver du et par opfølgende essay-lange analyser af hvor og hvordan man ser splittelserne?

Min endelige valganalyse: Er USA blevet mindre dybt splittet? Nej. Det tætte valg mellem kandidaterne tegner igen et klart billede af et splittet land, hvor splittelserne igen er dybe. Mere dybe end før? Vi får se! Men dybe er de, splittelserne. 🇺🇲

@JohsEG Det har mange faktisk bedt mig om, nærmest tigget. Fx, er der stadig kæmpe forskelle mellem land og by? Svaret er ja. Og ikke kun mht. vælgeradfærd men også ift. antallet af store bygninger osv. Man kunne blive ved. Dybe splittelser.

@Haag_Jens Der er tale om en slags elektronisk lektricitet, så vidt jeg forstår.

Elektricitet er spansk for "lektriciteten".
