WATCH: We spoke with Palestinians in Gaza about the recent ceasefire. Follow @Mondoweiss for more.

What Really Happened on October 7 @pularjs

This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala

Al Jazeera has been one of the most important sources of information on Israeli bombing and starving Palestinian civilians in Gaza and repression in the West Bank, so Israel shuts down its Ramallah bureau after already have shut its East Jerusalem bureau. apnews.com/article/israel…

Press coverage never accurately portrays Trump’s gibberish. You have to read it for yourself to truly understand the insanity⤵️

Al Jazeera reporting what the western media turn a blind eye to. Armed Israeli settlers attacking homes across the West Bank. Setting homes ablaze and shooting and killing Palestinians who try to defend themselves. Whilst the Israeli army watch on.

Forgot how funny Obama vs Trump making statements was 😭

@roguewaveband glastonbury? 🙏

Had a misunderstanding w my friend and instead of assuming the worst I FaceTimed her and told her how I was feeling and asked how she felt

His family survived the Holocaust. He founded Human Rights Watch. He directed the ACLU. Now he’s saying Israel is engaged in genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Excellent CNN interview:

For personal and professional reasons, I haven't been vocal about Palestine on this platform. But after yesterday, I want to make a few things clear for the record. (1/6)

‘Stay with us.’ @wesstreeting says it’s going to be a challenge, but the NHS can rebuild with a focus on prevention, improving primary and community care spending and investing in workforce. #RCPMED24

A right-wing Israeli mob came to my family’s home yesterday to search for me, threatening close family members who fled to another town in the middle of the night. I am still getting death threats and had to cancel my flight home. This happened after Israeli media and German politicians absurdly labeled my Berlinale award speech - where I called for equality between Israelis and Palestinians, a ceasefire and an end to apartheid - as ‘antisemitic’. The appalling misuse of this word by Germans, not only to silence Palestinian critics of Israel, but also to silence Israelis like me who support a ceasefire that will end the killing in Gaza and allow the release of the Israeli hostages - empties the word antisemitism of meaning and thus endangers Jews all over the world. As my grandmother was born in a concentration camp in Libya and most of my grandfather’s family was murdered by Germans in the holocaust, I find it particularly outraging that German politicians in 2024 have the audacity to weaponize this term against me in a way that endangered my family. But above all else, this behavior puts Palestinian co-director Basel Adra’s life in danger, who lives under a military occupation surrounded by violent settlements in Masafer Yatta. He is in far greater danger than I am. I’m happy our award winning film, No Other Land, is sparking an important international debate on this issue - and I hope that millions of people watch it when it comes out this year. Sparking a conversation is why we made it. You can have harsh criticism of what me and Basel said on stage without demonizing us. If this is what you’re doing with your guilt for the holocaust - I don’t want your guilt.

Excellent question: How did Anat, who had no journalism experience, and her 24 yr old co-author Adam Sella (nephew by marriage) come to lead a front page investigation? I will try to answer. Her first article in New York Times is on Nov 14, 2023.

New doubts are emerging about the New York Times’s coverage of sexual violence in the October 7 attack. The paper must explain why it broke its own rules by hiring a clearly biased writer who endorsed racist and violent rhetoric toward Palestinians. bit.ly/3uSLN0b

When I graduated in 1984, and became a junior doctor, I had to pay my GMC membership, professional indemnity insurance, and for ongoing professional exams and Royal College membership. Just as junior doctors do now. BUT… 1/
