🇵🇸 Rafeef Garbi #FreePalestine

Ladies & gentlemen, let me introduce you to Palestinian "cult-like tribal" dance as per pro 🇮🇱Twitter intellectuals: Dabkeh! Palestinians since time immemorial engage in traditional line dancing that is at the core of Palestinian identity. Shaking with fear? Read on 🧵

90% of the people who live in the UAE are immigrants with no rights. This is how they are treated even if they spent decades living there. This is what you can expect to happen when you live in Dubai or Abu Dhabi and they suddenly decide you have to leave.

This is the Church, convent, and school of the Salvatorian Sisters in Yaron, Lebanon. I studied in one of their schools. The complex had remained standing until yesterday, when Israel deliberately destroyed it. Because they are destroying everything, the very fabric of life.

Tortured by the israelis, witnesses say they heard Saif Abukeshek's agonising screams echoing through the prison ship @gbsumudflotilla

Global Sumud Flotilla participants say they were punched, kicked, dragged across the floor with their hands tied, and shot at with real and rubber bullets on board an Israeli warship after they were kidnapped in international waters more than 500 nautical miles from Gaza. While interception was violent for many, participants say the worst treatment came when they peacefully resisted moves to abduct organisers Thiago Avila and Saif Abukeshek, who are still detained. 34 wounded participants - including two Brits - have been taken to hospital in Crete, flotilla organisers said, with broken bones and other injuries. One participant was reportedly knocked unconscious for several minutes, while another has serious injuries to their neck. Several have broken ribs and noses, and some appear to be wearing blood-stained clothes. Nearly 200 others are still being held on buses by Greek authorities, with the government accused of “cooperating fully” with Israel. Avila and Abukeshek’s partners said on Friday that they fear for the activists’ safety. Avila, who is Brazilian, sailed to Israel in autumn 2025 and was detained for several days, receiving particularly harsh treatment in Ketziot prison. Abukeshek has Spanish and Swedish nationality but is of Palestinian descent. He was on board an observer boat and did not intend to go all the way to Gaza. He did not sail last time. Abukeshek, who lives in Spain, has three small children, his partner told journalists. Avila has a baby daughter. Greek politician Yanis Varoufakis slammed his government on X, saying it was working with Israel. “Meanwhile, the Greek government is cooperating fully in Israel’s criminal behaviour,” he wrote, “effectively surrendering its search and rescue obligations and conniving with Israel to victimise the brave crews of the Sumud Flotilla.” During 40 hours on board the Israeli frigate, activists say they were denied adequate food and water and forced to sleep on the floor, which was repeatedly and deliberately flooded. 60 participants are now on hunger strike in protest at their treatment. Flotilla organisers say the remaining boats - only 22 of 57 were intercepted - will continue to Gaza.

In just one month alone, @HonestRepCanada has launched 3 separate attacks on me because of my appearances in Canadian media. This pest of an organization does nothing but put targets on the backs of journalists & makes it a headache for media outlets to work with those journalists. Yet 🇨🇦 parliamentary committee’s platform them as some sort of good faith actor. It’s wild that an industry wide boycott and call out of this plague on our media landscape is not happening in Canada.

Canada in two acts. 🇨🇦 is not at war with Iran but bans Iranians from the World Cup as the US commits abominable war crimes against them. Israel is committing a genocide of children for 3 years but their genocide soldiers are welcomed as heroes by 🇨🇦 schools & universities.

"Testigos oculares han dado testimonios espeluznantes de los gritos de Saif Abukeshek resonando a través del barco mientras era torturado de forma sistemática, después de ser separado del resto". @gbsumudflotilla El estado de #Israel ha torturado y secuestrado al español Saif.

Easy. They privatized retirement homes

The Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, revealed that he was subjected to intense pressure from officials in the United States and Britain before he submitted a request to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli officials. The requested warrants were for war crimes, including starvation as a method of warfare and intentionally directing attacks against a civilian population, as well as crimes against humanity including murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts. Khan explained that the pressure included contacts, warnings, and political criticism aimed at influencing his decision and preventing him from proceeding with legal actions related to war crimes and crimes against humanity connected to the war on Gaza.

“It wasn't enough for him to just knock her to the ground and hurt her; it was as if he wanted to finish her off, to kill her.” In an interview with MEE, Bishop William Shomali condemned a “treacherous attack” by a Jewish Israeli man against a nun in the old city of Jerusalem.

Freedom to Flotilla activists

I write to you now about something I witnessed during the genocidal war in Gaza, and I will never forget it for as long as I live. We were displaced inside a UNRWA school in northern Gaza. On that day, Israeli soldiers stormed the school and ordered all the young men to come out without clothes, so we came out naked, under humiliation and fear. After that, they began taking some of us on a truck for arrest, while others were kept in a temporary enclosed place, and I was among them. There was a young man who was the only son of his mother. He did not come out with us, because his mother held onto him and was afraid for him. When the soldiers came to search the place, they pulled him from her arms while she begged them and screamed: “Please… leave him.” But before my eyes, they shot her directly in the head, then arrested her son as well. It is a scene I can never forget. How much humiliation and suffering we have endured in this war… My heart is full of pain. 💔

Not a single Israeli regime official should be allowed in Canada! In fact, why do we still have an ambassador here when they are facing a genocide convention case? Why are we not investigating Canadians who were in the IDF? Why are we not honoring and following the laws we have?

“OK that’s good”, she responds nodding like a seal. American “journalism” ladies and gentlemen.

Greece is an utter disgrace.

This is the building, this is the tree USrael bombed and a 20 days old baby was thrown from that building to that tree.. It was a 5 story building..

Sexual crimes by Israeli soldiers against Palestinians, including gang rapes and rapes with dogs, are the most bestial atrocities I've ever read. We spoke to @MahaGaza about these horrors and @TamaraINassar and I wrote about them. Watch/Read (GRAPHIC!) electronicintifada.net/content/system…

In the normal world, we call doctors abducted and held for over a year HOSTAGES. Why don’t you?
