More doctors say that decades in war zones did not prepare them for Gaza; that horrors defy description; that Israeli snipers shot children in the head. #Genocide_in_Gaza Day 289 We Volunteered at a Gaza Hospital. What We Saw Was Unspeakable.

Kids and families playing football. Israel hated that. So they bombed them. Simple as that.

a Zionist fanatic at the Oxford Union angrily asks George Galloway if he is racist because of his opposition to the genocidal Israeli occupation, and is applauded by the audience. Here's Galloway's response that gets the audience to applaud him by the end:

A Health Ministry spokesperson estimates that 200-300 Palestinians were killed in one go when the IOF struck the hospital. Just like that, Israel can massacre hundreds of people with the full backing of the white “civilized” world. We are witnessing a devastating genocide.

I cannot believe I’m writing this… The Israeli Occupation bombards the Anglican Hospital in the middle of Gaza City, targeting its doctors, patients, and the hundreds of displaced Palestinians taking shelter inside.

Today, I'm thinking of all those in Israel and Palestine suffering unimaginable pain, trauma and fear. The horrific attacks on civilians in Israel were deplorable. This cannot justify the indiscriminate killing of Palestinians, who are paying the price for a crime they did not

Another piece of hypocrisy to anticipate: The media will certainly refer to the massacre Israel is about to commit in Gaza as a “response,” but no ever refers to Palestinian violence as a response to a STATUS QUO of murderous Israeli violence & brutality & land theft & apartheid.

It's been 3 years since MAYOR premiered, but because of COVID it took this long to plan our premiere in Ramallah. Last week, we finally got to screen the film there - and gave Mayor Musa his Emmy Award plaque.

My new book, TRACERS IN THE DARK, is out today. It draws on 11 years of reporting, since I wrote the first print magazine article on Bitcoin in 2011. It's the most epic true crime/detective story I've ever come across as a reporter. I hope you'll read it.
