“We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.”

The righteous glee from the liberal-left about conservative hypocrisy on free speech is wild. You’ve *sucked* and not defended this for years. Should be learning an important lesson right now about how that behavior hurts the left most and first! Having said that, welcome home.

Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to millions.

Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government.

You know what’s hate speech? Saying Israel should continue to attack Gaza, that it hasn’t killed enough Palestinians after they’ve slaughtered over 25,000 women and children.

A surprising number of replies are openly stating there are no Israeli civilians and that all Israelis are legitimate targets. To be clear, that language is exactly the genocidal language of Israeli leadership justifying the genocide in Gaza. If this is you, rethink yourself.

Some recent pro-Palestinian tweets went viral, so I got to be exposed to pro-Israeli accounts, some real people, some trolls. And they exhibit behaviour I remember from the good (not good) days of Holocaust denial in Europe in the 1980s. A short 🧵 which will please no one.

This is the key point. It’s the point I put to Ehud Olmert on #MehdiUnfiltered last week & what I have said nonstop since Oct 7th. Even if you don’t care about Palestinian lives in Gaza, from a strategic point of view this war is a disaster for Israeli security & a gift to Hamas.

“The genocide in Gaza... is the first AI-powered genocide.”

Google workers are calling for an end to Project Nimbus, Google’s contract with the Israeli government and military.

Today, six months ago, Hamas murdered three people I knew—two peace activists and a guy I went to school with—committing horrific massacres, kidnapping Israelis, many of them civilians, with 133 still unjustifiably held by Hamas in Gaza. The women taken captive are likely facing

Israel just agreed to let in much more humanitarian aid after strong pressure from the US.

This means that:

1. pressure on your government WORKS, keep doing it!

2. israel was clearly withholding this aid ON PURPOSE and all of their excuses were b.s.

'Just this week, two prisoners had their legs amputated due to handcuff injuries, which unfortunately is a routine event,' the physician said.

People don’t realize that protests and letter writing etc work - Canada decided to stop sending weapons to Israel even though the parliamentary vote was non-binding. This is entirely because of public pressure

Keep it up!

An ABC of the main events and competing narratives about Israel / Palestine to help us understand how we got from “Never Again” to “there are no innocent civilians above the age of 4” and what the way out of this is.

In the midst of livestreamed horror, What is Politics? created a video on the history of Palestine-Israel, focusing on class relations within the various populations. As usual, thoroughly researched and referenced, required watching for anyone who cares.

Julia Steinberger Puff the Magic Hater NYC Tw*tterati really interesting thread. i’d characterize it a bit differently - humans are disposed to fairness and selfishness, but for most of our existence, conditions were such that our selfish impulses, much like our lust for sugar and salt, really couldn’t get very far,
