Thank you @RepTedDeutch for your passionate defense of our ally Israel and for standing up to the vicious, dangerous lies spoken on the House floor by Rep. Tlaib about our democratic ally.
Anyone trying to pass off hasbara as anti-racism work in this moment is not progressive, not anti-racist, and definitely not centering the stated priorities of the Movement for Black Lives.
Zioness just put out an “Activist Guide to Racial Justice” that has 1 page on combating racism and about 5 pages defending Israel...so that’s something.
It’s now 28 plus days since @RabbiZvi was suspended and 15 or so since @Racharley77.
The former has not been told why, @Twitter@Twittersupport.
The latter for displaying a Magen David on her profile, it seems.
Antisemites are still given free reign, like @LouisFarrakhan 🤮
Disturbing - Several reporting that Jewish accounts are being suspended for using the Magen David (Star of David). Not once or twice but a pattern. It is being described as an image of 'hate'.
Can @TwitterSupport clarify what the hell is going on?
Here is my personal response:
This #HolocaustRemembranceDay—and every day—we pay tribute to the millions of lives lost and forever changed in one of the most horrific chapters of our world’s history. May we honor them by fighting to ensure hate and bigotry #neveragain prevail. #YomHaShoah
Goodness. We're in the @DailyMailUK everyone! If I would've known there'd be so much enthusiasm around this, I would've fixed my hair at the very least! dailymail.co.uk/femail/article…
In commemoration of the 44th anniversary of #PalestineLandDay and the 2nd anniversary of the #GreatMarchOfReturn we show our support and solidarity for the right of return for refugees and to #endthegazablockade

US sanctions are literal mass murder. That's not hyperbole
Iranians are dying and suffering from coronavirus because the Iranian government can't buy much-needed medicine and medical equipment, due to illegal US sanctions
This is a crime against humanity

Iran creates an app to try to help its citizens detect coronavirus symptoms...
But due to US sanctions, Google pulls it from the app store.
US sanctions on Iran are blocking medical supplies, disinfectant, and even information.
Sanctions are war.
