We will never forgive or forget…
This level of suffering is unconscionable - yet our “leaders” offer pathetic platitudes at best
I genuinely don’t know how they live with themselves.
UNRWA@UNRWA
UNRWA has food, shelter, medical and other essential supplies outside of #Gaza - enough to reach hundreds of thousands of people facing the harsh winter. This aid has been blocked by Israeli Authorities since March. Refusing to let it in is a choice – one that deprives people inside Gaza of the means to survive and recover. UNRWA's 12,000 team members are working tirelessly inside Gaza. But letting the blocked aid in would enable them to multiply their operations massively.

Ben-Gvir is an affront to humanity. He is more brutal, more racist than the leaders of apartheid South Africa. In any civilised society he would be in jail, rather than a Minister. No civilised country would maintain links, let alone support, a government of which he is part
Quds News Network@QudsNen
Far-right Israeli Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir declared that about 100 Israeli doctors told him they were willing to administer lethal injections to Palestinian prisoners if executions were approved. The World Medical Association condemned the statement as “disgusting,” while major human rights groups and the head of doctors’ union rejected the proposed bill. Ben-Gvir added: “We all came with this pin, one of the options to implement the death penalty law. There’s the possibility of hanging, the electric chair, and also anaesthesia. Since doctors said they won’t assist, I’ve received 100 messages from doctors saying, ‘Itamar, just tell us when.’”

Israel hasnt been suspended from the UN, other in'l fora, UEFA, FIFA, FIBA or cultural events. Genocide continues because it is normalised.
And then, just like that, accountability in the form of a European boycott begins. Eurovicious no more!

Shocking but true.
With its security-first, capital-driven model of foreign control, Res 2803 puts Gaza in the hands of a puppet administration, with the US as the new manager of an open-air prison, further crushing Palestine's right to self-determination and any path to peace.

Once again, @ScotNational puts the rest of the UK press to shame.
This is what journalism with moral clarity looks like.

1) Israel kidnapped a 13-year old Palestinian boy
2) Israel raped the 13-year old Palestinian boy in prison
3) @DCIPalestine alerted the US government
4) The US government asked Israel for an explanation.
5) Israel declared @DCIPalestine a terrorist entity, raiding their offices
Najat@theafroaussie
Israelis raped a child they imprisoned. IOF soldiers then labelled the organisation investigating the crime as a “terrorist entity.” Israel is the rape capital of the world.

🔥BREAKING!
What Israeli forces are doing to 66 yo Marwan Barghouti (a symbol of unity) -accounts speak of torture, sever beating, broken ribs and teeth- reveals a depraved mindset and system, brutalising defenseless individuals as a way to break the spirit of an entire people.
Yanis Varoufakis@yanisvaroufakis
BREAKING: Israeli jailers are torturing, smashing the teeth, attacking the body, of Marwan Barghouti - the Palestinian Nelson Mandela, the leader who can lead Palestinians and Israelis to a Just Peace (watch the video by Knesset member Ofer Cassif). Free Marwan Now! #FreeMarwan

🇮🇱 A new level of collapse for the Israeli army:
An Israeli soldier was filmed digging up a grave in the village of Masiliah, south of Jenin, after storming the area, sealing it off, and imposing a full lockdown.
What kind of occupation sinks this low?
This isn’t an army facing fighters…
it’s an army waging war on the dead.
When fear reaches the point of digging up graves,
you know the occupation is too weak to confront the living
and too brutal to respect even those beneath the soil.
One clip says it all:
this isn’t a military force—
it’s institutional madness.

🚨British-Palestinian doctor Ghassan Abu Sitta is due to face his tenth legal action brought by UK Lawyers for Israel, which have cost him over £100,000.
He told Declassified: "The aim is never to win. The aim is financial and mental attrition".
