Open every border. Tear down every wall. Let in every single refugee. And stop the wars, colonization, impoverishment, and climate change that force people to leave their homes in the first place.

Biden calls massive bombs in a densely-populated area that leveled six apartment buildings in Lebanon “a measure of justice.” The torching of international law and the precedent that is being set should terrify us all.

Continued media framing of the US as being "dragged" into conflict, "trying but failing" to prevent war, or having "no influence" over its violent allies obscures the US' central role in driving and sustaining imperialist wars, whether in Palestine, Yemen, Sudan, or Lebanon.
Poor hapless United States. Couldn't prevent genocide in Gaza, couldn't prevent invasion of Rafah, couldn't prevent massacre in Lebanon, won't prevent invasion of Lebanon, can't stop itself sending 2000lbs bombs. What a weak, helpless nation, like a kitten.

I know this area in Hodeidah. You can see how children and families are heading back from the beach after the 2nd airstrike. But @CENTCOM will tell us this is also a "Houthi target."

After years of BDS campaigning that has cost German conglomerate @PUMA dearly in reputation and projects, we have forced it to abandon its sponsorship of the Israel Football Association in this time of Israel's #GazaGenocide.

Folks, I have done hundreds of segments, and countless ones for this same network over the years to talk about this issue. I have *never* witnessed the level of censorship and discourse policing by cable news that is taking place right now.

The replay is up at the link below. Worth it for the documentary for sure, and for the panel discussion afterwards, thanks to @SamaaahMS, @kpYES and @_carens_ for their reflections

Van Jones says "God protect the children" of Gaza at today's "march for Israel" and gets booed and heckled, followed by chants of "no ceasefire"
Van Jones at the March for Israel: “I’m a peace guy, I pray for peace. No more rockets from Gaza, and no more bombs falling down on the people of Gaza.” The crowd breaks out into a “NO CEASEFIRE” chant shortly after

Palestinians share tonight is the worst night of aerial bombardment. That is horrific on day 16 of a genocidal campaign that has already stolen the lives of 4,385 Palestinians, including 1,000 children, & flattened entire cities. What is the world doing? #CeasefireNow
