December has always been my happy month. My countdown for it would begin in January, each year. It was the month in which I celebrated myself, not only because my birthday falls in December, but because it was different in Gaza. Cold, often rainy, and wrapped in an atmosphere

Israeli tanks have advanced into #Gaza City, reaching the Shujaiya roundabout in the east, just a short distance from the city centre. This is around 700 meters west of the actual "Yellow Line" that was agreed on. Israel’s “Yellow Line” shifts daily, swallowing more of Gaza’s

The preconditions for a major financial crisis in the US are all in place, writes @Jayati1609 (@UMassAmherst). While developing economies cannot control what happens there, they can and must avoid their own past mistakes. Read more in a new PS Big Question.

The concentration of income and wealth at the very top has created a class of global plutocrats whose unprecedented power undermines democracy, weakens economic growth, and undermines climate action, argues @UMass’s @Jayati1609.

Yet pro-genocide donors are demanding that Democrats not call it a genocide and many are listening. Many still don't understand how disconnected they are with the Dem base.

77% of Democratic voters say Israel is committing genocide. 75% want to cut off weapons to Israel. The choice for Democratic leadership should be obvious: it’s time to listen to their voters, not the Republican billionaires who fund AIPAC.

Because of the genocide, Rory. Irish people hate Israel because it committed a live-streamed genocide, with total impunity, and then petulantly lobbied Western leaders and institutions to punish anyone who dared protest. It made the world a darker, crueler, more hopeless place.

🏛️Israel has destroyed Gaza’s ancient heritage during the genocide, burning the city’s historical archives. Among the treasures erased was the Great Omari Mosque, built in 636 AD. Today, our young Gazans gather its broken stones, hoping to rebuild it one day.

This is a really thorough report on how the UAE maintains supply lines to its RSF proxy via Chad and Libya. I encourage everyone concerned with the situation in Sudan to read it.

How did the UAE supply the RSF & sustain its war effort in Sudan for 2+ years? What dictated the reliance on Amdjarass, Kufra or other nodes? More broadly, how did Sudan's war affect arms trafficking & mercenary networks in Chad & Libya? My in-depth report @GI_TOC:
