It is simply remarkable how much the recent pivots to condemning Israel are premised on fabricating a recent watershed, on summoning a new history of events. Hind Rajab was killed a year and a half ago. The ICJ case was filed in 2023.

This is the best ever true news BBC ever made about Israel, 4 minutes but every minute is extremely important

The level of righteous stupidity wld be laughable if it was not so consequential. Aside from the # of colonial genocides committed in the name of “national security” is the fact that Israel has abandoned its captives & a track record of massacring Palestinians even w/o pretext.

New: After Gaza aid flotilla volunteer & US citizen Christian Smalls was taken into Israeli custody, seven uniformed individuals beat him, choking him & kicking him in the legs, according to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. Smalls is co-founder of the Amazon Labor Union.

i genuinely think about and quote this James Baldwin quote almost every day

straight from gaza to your kids elementary school!

I don't think it's hyperbolic to say, publishing Nima Hasan's words today (a beloved writer, social worker, and mother of 7 surviving the genocide in Gaza) is one of the biggest honors I've ever been trusted with as an editor. To call this required reading is an understatement.

Roughly 24% of women in the U.S. military have experienced sexual assault during the post-9/11 wars.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “We must continue to push for a complete arms embargo of all weapons to the Israeli government. No matter what weapons, I don’t care if it’s ‘offensive’ or ‘defensive.’ It’s past time that my colleagues stop making excuses.”

85% of young men support Zohran Mamdani. 79% of young women support Zohran Mamdani. 67% of Jewish people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani. 65% of Black people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani. Would you have guessed *any* of that with how the media has covered all this?

A reminder that the editors at the New York Times refused to issue a correction to “Screams Without Words,” even after 50 tenured journalism professors implored them to.

You should watch the whole discussion between Senator Chris Van Hollen and Green Beret Anthony Agular, but this part really shocked me. This is how Agular found out that the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's client was the IDF. At one of the distribution sites in Gaza, some starving kids

"I was told by one of the editors of the New York Times: 'The New York Times does not recognize Palestine.' I said well Palestine does not recognize the New York Times either." — Ibrahim Abu-Lughod (1988)

Inside Nasser Hospital in Gaza, the scene is one of unbearable horror. The facility resembles a slaughterhouse more than a place of healing—bodies of the killed Palestinians lie in rows, victims of a massacre that claimed 80 lives, 56 of them in one deadly attack. Every

At Northwestern students and faculty are now REQUIRED to watch a film made by the Jewish Federation that equates anti-Zionism and the KKK. See below from The Guardian

These are brothers, Maher and Malik, in Gaza. Like an entire generation of Palestinians, Israel has stripped them of a childhood, and people still defend it.

Progressive anti-racism was totalitarian, but this is fine.

Once again for the millionth time, demanding as a condition of a “ceasefire” one side surrender and disarm is not a call for a ceasefire. It’s a reiteration of surrender terms and an argument in favor of the pretext for the genocide (“war on Hamas”) to continue indefinitely

Again there remains two mainstream positions on Gaza: 1) Bomb Palestinian children on an Empty Stomach (R) and 2) Bomb Palestinian children on 600 calories a day (D). The latest liberal uprising this week, such as it is, is about reverting back from (1) to (2). That’s it.
