This disgusting tweet comes from Israel's extremist National Security Minister, who was convicted by an Israeli court of racist incitement & supporting terrorism.

This is the government waging war against the entire Palestinian people. We cannot be complicit in Ben-Gvir's war.

Last year, during the anti-judicial coup protests, a group of fighter pilots threatened to refuse missions over the gov'ts undemocratic actions.

Yes, 10/7 was unprecedented; Hamas is a religious death cult. But 7mo into this war, it's the same gov't. Why are you still flying?

Tel Aviv, a mass protest calling for ceasefire as the government has decided to abandon the hostages and continue its onslaught on the outskirts of Rafah

سامی میخائیل، نویسنده اعجاب‌انگیز عراقی-اسرائيلی که اخیرا درگذشت. مدتی هم در ایران زندگی می‌کرد و فعال حزب توده ایران بود (در اسرائیل و عراق هم عضو احزاب کمونیست آن کشورها بود که البته بعدها جدا شد)

After all the bluster about Rafah, the 'invasion' all about blowing up a 'I love Gaza' sign in order for Netanyahu to save face with the right before he signs the deal. The cynicism and disregard for Palestinians, the hostages, and citizens is beyond.

All the Rafah invasion is a show for the Israeli right and for the U.S. to get its ROI

For Los Angeles Review of Books, I wrote about my family's legacy of conscientious objection and dissidence—from Russia to Vietnam to Israel.

Einav, the mother of kidnapped Matan Zangauker, in the hostage families' protest in Tel Aviv: 'Hamas has agreed to the deal. Now is the time for the Netanyahu government to return the hostages. Otherwise, we will burn the country.'

After it was announced that Hamas accepted the ceasefire and the government is stalling hundreds went to block Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv.

Police brutes are violently cracking down.

The people of Gaza express their joy at the news of Hamas's agreement to the ceasefire.

The Israeli minister of defense and most members of the cabinet are for the deal. Majority of the Israeli public is for the deal.

Only holdouts are Jewish settler terror sympathizers and Netanyahu. It's not surprising Ben Shapiro is on the side of messianic zealots.

אם נתניהו יקבל הסכם, אולי הימין יצטרף לאחים לנשק ויכולים להפגין יחד.
