If you still wonder where violence in Palestine comes from: remember that for 20 years Israel is on record for having abducted 700 Palestinian children every year. What you see today is not sudden: it’s the violence of decades of impunity made visible.

I have no words anymore. States. Must. Intervene. This isn’t genius, it’s leadership. 1. Impose an arms embargo and cut trade. 2. Break the blockade with your humanitarian navies. 3. Send a protective presence to Palestine to ensure Israel dismantles its occupation NOW.
Israeli snipers screaming of joy after murdering a child: "YAAAS! Son of a b*tch" "Wow. Hit him in the head" "What a legendary video" "He flew in the air & his leg was" This was 7 YEARS ago, during protests against the siege, when Israeli snipers deliberately shot 940 children!

A disaster is unfolding in Sebastia. Hundreds of Israeli forces just stormed into the quiet village, teargassed and beat residents, and began evicting families from their homes to make way for building an archaeological theme park. Have never heard my source sound like this.
All my grimmest West Bank predictions are coming true. Today, Israel seized nearly half of Sebastia to build “Samaria Park”—a Biblical Disneyland—using one of its laws that weaponize archaeology as cover for land theft. Israel now has free rein to demolish and build as it pleases

The UN is currently the only institution able to keep Palestinians alive, and the very few UN personnel allowed into Gaza are among the few international witnesses of Israel’s annihilation. As part of its strategy of destruction, Israel is trying to erase any UN presence in Gaza.

"As the convoy approached, the surrounding crowd came under fire from Israeli tanks, snipers and other gunfire." "These people were simply trying to access food to feed themselves and their families on the brink of starvation." Indefensible.
WFP Statement | #Gaza On the morning of 20 July, a 25 truck WFP convoy carrying vital food assistance crossed the Zikim border point destined for starving communities in northern Gaza. Shortly after passing the final checkpoint beyond the Zikim crossing point into Gaza, the

I wonder if @History_Reclaim will attack A N Wilson in the same way they’ve consistently attacked Black Scholars for mentioning the Third Reich and the British Empire in the same frame?

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is growing more and more dire by the day. According to the United Nations, more than 400 people have died trying to access food aid in the past month alone. They describe the situation as "a death sentence for people just trying to survive".

Thomas Piketty, a hugely influential economist, explicitly says that colonial extraction and unequal exchange have caused global inequality. This is considered a fringe opinion in the mainstream economics community, so kudos to Piketty for rocking the boat.
Colonial extraction and unequal exchange have shaped two centuries of North-South inequality. 🧵A thread on a NEW STUDY written with @gatonievas [1/9] 🔗

As the Madleen was reportedly intercepted and seized by Israeli forces in int'l waters, the UK gov must urgently seek full clarification and secure the immediate release of the vessel & its crew. The Madleen must be allowed to continue its lawful humanitarian mission to Gaza.

Do I condone the taking of hostages? No. But I also don’t condone siege warfare, white phosphorus, mass graves, or bombing refugee camps. The difference is: I don’t have selective outrage. You keep repeating, "Hamas should never have taken them." But let me ask you: Should

EUROPEANS: Do we understand how useless and hypocritical we are, as a union all the more, if "the shift on Israel" remains a question mark - instead of a firm decision- at such an abhorrent moment in history?

The last time we saw evil on this scale, dozens of nations moved heaven and earth to stop it. Now, we fund its continuation. We arm and fête the monsters responsible. We excuse their atrocities and indulge their crocodile tears. We blacklist and jail and deport those who object.
