This will never end without an arms embargo on Israel. There's no "deal ", no "agreement", no "resolution" without disarming Israel. It's a 100+ years violent conflict, you think it goes away with words when Israel is still fully armed? No. It's genocide or disarmament of Israel.
🔴JUST IN: Gaza’s Health Ministry has reported that Israeli attacks across Gaza since last night have killed at least 104 Palestinians, including 46 children, and wounded at least 253. This brings the recorded death toll from the Israeli genocide in Gaza to 68,643 and 170,665 injuries (likely 3-5x higher)

Making this world a brighter place.. what do you think ?!🎨❤️ This backpack with this blue color became a label. A label that tells everyone that this child has lost their home, their childhood, their colors, their normal life. And somehow, from one of the biggest organizations in the world, what they get is a cheap-looking blue backpack with a huge logo telling everyone: this was donated to you. Be fair, for once.

Odd for the CEO of FDD, a think tank claiming to be committed to “strengthening U.S. national security” to advocate for US-Israel “intelligence & economic integration to such an extent that inflicting financial harm on Israel would also carry a significant cost for Washington.”🤨

🔴Statement from the Lebanese Ministry of Health: The Ministry of Public Health condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the barbaric crime committed by the Israeli enemy in burning down the Mays al-Jabal Governmental Hospital—an act constituting a flagrant and brutal assault. This public healthcare facility—which the Ministry had diligently refurbished and equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology to serve as a lifeline and a safe haven for displaced residents and those steadfastly remaining in border areas—is now facing systematic destruction that reveals a profound moral bankruptcy and deep-seated criminality. The occupation forces did not merely occupy the facility previously and convert it into a military barracks; they have now gone so far as to burn it down completely, thereby depriving the people of the South of their most basic human rights to medical treatment and healthcare. The Ministry asserts that targeting medical institutions and healthcare personnel constitutes a full-fledged war crime and a blatant violation of international conventions. It calls upon the international community, the World Health Organization, and the International Committee of the Red Cross to immediately break their suspicious silence and hold the occupation accountable for its repeated crimes against Lebanon’s health sector. Furthermore, the Ministry emphasizes that these criminal acts will not break the people's resolve; the Ministry remains committed to fulfilling its national and humanitarian duty and supporting the people of the South with all available resources, regardless of the sacrifices required.

(One final post about this) I have to admit that never in my dreams did I imagine that people who claim to be pro-Palestine would look down on me or accuse me of naivety simply because I expressed my disappointment with Finkelstein’s response to a question. These people are willing to police, talk over, suppress, and even delegitimize a Palestinian who survived the genocide and documented it firsthand, simply to defend a figure I did not even attack. I didn’t even offer any serious critique of the issues on which we may disagree. Somehow, it became Mosab vs. Norman. No one is above reproach or critique, whether they are Palestinian or someone who has advocated for the rights of the Palestinian people for more than 40 years. What happened today has left me deeply concerned. If this is how some people in the pro-Palestine movement treat a Palestinian, then I worry about the future of Palestine. This sickens me. In the long run, dismissing Palestinian voices, reflections, and hopes, i fear, will only hurt, and perhaps ultimately undermine, the Palestinian people’s struggle to liberate themselves.

Removing every shred of support from the genocidal apartheid state of Israel and, in turn, from anyone who supports the Israeli state is NOT a "purity test" or "making the perfect the enemy of the good." There's no acceptable position other than unambiguously fighting to end this holocaust and the horrific occupation. At a bare minimum, this means that elected officials claiming to be pro-Palestinian must not endorse Zionist politicians funding this holocaust. It's an objective fact that most of the DSA-endorsed leaders fail to meet even this basic standard. History will not absolve them for this any more than those silent during the Nazi Holocaust. Those of us fighting against the horrors in Gaza and the West Bank cannot look the other way out of some false idea of "left unity."
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani says he will “continue to support Congressman Jeffries” for House speaker, standing behind the AIPAC-backed Democratic leader who has been one of the most powerful defenders of Israel’s genocidal project in Palestine.

The op-ed asks the pro-Palestine movement to condemn Hamas. This would have exactly zero influence on Hamas, which continues to exist despite being a proscribed terrorist organization (by law) that is universally condemned by all mainstream institutions in the U.S. and Europe. Virtually ALL of the pro-Palestine movement's central demands, in both the U.S. and Europe, are ignored by their own governments. We're supposed to believe the movement's influence on Hamas is greater than our influence on our own elected governments? No, not a chance. What condemnation will do, however, is give Israel the brightest green light the world has ever seen to continue its destruction of Palestine and its people. The op-ed is propaganda that attempts to convert authentic support for Palestine into the very same "justification [Israel] has used for decades to restrict the free movement of people and trade and to treat Gaza as an occupied nation", and, even more sinisterly, justification for the resumption of unrestricted slaughter. Fuck that. Fuck Israel. Free Palestine.

🚨 This video is from last winter. This is what I will face again this winter if I don’t repair the roof. Rainwater poured through the damaged roof and flooded our room. 😭😭 I’m desperately trying to protect my children and newborn from this happening again. Please help me raise $800 to buy the materials needed to repair the roof before winter arrives. Any contribution or share could make a real difference for my family. 💔chuffed.org/project/196753-i…

Family first.
'Wearing her prayer shawl, holding a Kalashnikov, firing toward the [IOF] bus, and defending her husband.' More details on the fearless, noble, martyred wife of the now abducted security official in Gaza: 'Muhammad Al-Khalidi, brother of the martyr Samah Al-Khalidi, reveals to Filastin newspaper what the video camera circulating online did not capture: the moment when Al-Arabid crawled, wounded, toward a tree trunk, trying to evade the aircraft before the special forces bus reached him. He said: "If the image in the video were enlarged, there is a gap between two branches where my sister Umm Muhammad can be seen, wearing her prayer shawl, holding a Kalashnikov, firing toward the bus, and defending her husband after she took up arms following the occupation's aircraft bombing her son during his clash with the force. Her son was hit by three bullets in his chest, then bombed. At that moment, the special forces thought the mission was over — but my sister surprised them and engaged them in combat." He added: "The gunfire shown in the video was not directed at Abu Muhammad, but rather toward my sister. The special forces' mission was not easy, every member of the family fought them, and there was an exchange of fire. This led to the intervention of "israeli" aircraft, which bombed two of my sister's sons — one lost an eye, and the other is in intensive care. My sister was martyred, and even her husband fought and may have wounded some of the force's members." He continued: "When Abu Muhammad, his companion, and his son moved about thirty meters away from the house, the attack began. The special forces failed to arrest him there, after an exchange of fire with the guard and his son. He was then wounded while trying to return to the house and crawled toward the tree, as seen in the circulating video. His son was defending him and clashing with the soldiers before being bombed. Then his mother took up arms to defend him, and she too was bombed. The goal of wounding him was to keep him alive."' - The IOF could not defeat this Palestinian family and had to resort to bombing them individually. O Gaza, the land of courage and dignity. May God accept your pure martyrs. instagram.com/p/Dc4XBdRKNmZ/…

Confirmed: yesterday, the heroic wife of the security officer in Gaza engaged the invading 'israeli' force and defended her family until martyrdom. 'Umm Muhammad, Samah Al-Khalidi, was martyred while engaging in combat, firing in defence of her husband, "Al-Arabid," who was arrested during the mission. To God be the praise for your women, O Gaza— how great, how noble, and how honourable they are. Umm Muhammad was preparing for her son Obeida's wedding. When the attack occurred, she left the henna ceremony, picked up her weapon, and went to fight alongside her husband. She was martyred, she and her young daughter, while her husband "Al-Arabid" was kidnapped, and her son Obeida (the groom) is in critical condition.' - Gaza continues to teach this entire world the meaning of defending your faith, land, and honour. Indeed it is jihad, victory or martyrdom. instagram.com/p/Dcx2JHtq_GT/…

His primary functions, it seems, are to malign potent critiques/critics of the Palestine/Israel status quo and supply impotent/corrosive decoy critiques, while appearing, falsely, as an example of possible peace because he's Palestinian ... and Zionist fucking love him.
