Palestinians salute the principled decision by Ireland’s men’s national football team goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu not to play the UEFA Nations League matches against genocidal Israel. #StopTheGame

the very irony of this whole debacle is that the very western very liberal democracies agree with the U.S. that the ICC should just stick at prosecuting african warlords, desert jihadists, and russian folks. ceci explique celà
I think I’m in the minority among academics, but I think it’s good the ICC will be destroyed. The Palestine experience has proven Lindsay Graham right: it is an institution meant for Africa and (some of) Putin(‘s crimes). That is an intolerable proposition. We can do better

Republic of Ireland’s players are considering boycotting Sunday’s match against Israel after Gavin Bazunu, the goalkeeper, said he did not want to play. Meetings are taking place at the team’s hotel in Hungary this morning as the players discuss whether they will collectively refuse to play the Nations League game as an act of protest against Israel’s actions in Gaza. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/football/202…

What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention. So we're going on tour. All proceeds will benefit organizations supporting the Palestinian people and movement. Sign up at macklemore.com

Today should've been Dr. Refaat Al-Areer's 47th birthday, but Israel assassinated him. A professor who has epitomised the quintessential levels of knowledge, honour, and dignity. An inextinguishable light for Palestine and the world. May Allah place him in the highest heaven.
في مثل هذا اليوم ولد رفعت العرعير، كان يفترض أن يبلغ 47 عاما لو أن إسرائيل لم تقتله!

Today, September 23rd, marks the birthday of my brother, Dr. Refaat Al-areer, may God have mercy on him. Speak of him in words; don't hold back, he deserves more than that 😭 He was a doctor, a poet, an angel, a brother, and a friend. He was more than just a human being 🥹
