BREAKING: another resignation from USG, this time from Department of Defense 🇺🇸 Intelligence Agency, by Cpt Harrison Mann. His resignation letter cites 'the nearly unqualified support for the government of Israel, which has enabled & empowered killing & starvation of tens of thousands of…

This happened for hours, in the presence of Israeli forces who didn't intervene.
This flies in the face of the CIJ_ICJ, that issued provisional measures to force Israel to enable humanitarian assistance.

Former head of Israeli human rights group B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم:

The Police is where the Netanyahu regime expects them to be: sticking it to the families of the hostages and the protestors, and when possible, violently.

Speaking for myself at least, I am not happy about this. I do not want Trump to be president again, and I do believe he would be worse in all respects including on Palestine. That’s why I’ve been sounding the alarm about Biden’s indefensible approach to Palestine for 7 months.

The Bill's ambition is merely to prevent the cataclysmic and totally preventable end of the Steward's saga, not address any of the institutional problems that led to this moment. #mapoli

MA House Dems healthcare bill is perfectly emblematic of how the building works and doesn't fix problems. Bill focuses on trying to prevent Steward's Hospital failure that resulted in people dying with more reporting. Our legislature rarely acts on its reports #mapoli
