Opposition to the slaughter in Gaza is becoming mainstream, which is obviously great, but when political impulses go mainstream it means there's going to be a massive and concerted effort to funnel public sentiment in a direction that doesn't damage the interests of the empire.

الاسير زكريا الزبيدي تعرض للتنكيل ويعاني من كسر في الفك وكسرين بالاضلاع، على مدار الأيام الأربعة التي تحرروا فيها لم يطلبوا المساعدة من أحد لئلا يتسببوا بأذى لأحد، ولم يتناولوا الماء طوال الفترة، وكانوا يأكلون ما يجدون من ثمار في البساتين كالصبر والتين.

I can’t even begin to wrap my head around these air strikes in their intensity and cruelty, how many of you can understand what it feels like to experience 50-100 air strikes at once surrounded by your screaming children?
