Israel just bombed Ahli Hospital in Gaza City, where American orthopedic surgeon Samer Attar - who did a 60 Minutes episode about #Gaza last week - is working. It's the second time in 20 days that an American surgeon has almost been killed by Israel in a hospital in Gaza (I was

BREAKING: This is the moment just minutes ago when Mohsen Madawi a Columbia University student was apprehended by HSI agents in the middle of his appointment to become a U.S. citizen. He is a Palestinian-born green card holder. Video was taken by his friend ⁦Christopher Helali⁩

No words for this. Mohsen Madawi, the Palestinian student from Columbia, had gone in for a citizenship interview — it was a trap to abduct him.

This is the student ICE picked up at his citizenship interview.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia didn’t come to the U.S. “illegally.” If he’d has been apprehended, charged, and convicted it’d be accurate to write that he crossed without authorization, which is a misdemeanor. But children are never tried under that law, and Abrego was 16 when he crossed.

As reporters, we strive for accuracy. Aside from being offensive, it’s also plainly inaccurate to write that Abrego entered “illegally.” Too often, we suspend standards when it comes to immigrants, and that’s also part of the reason why what’s happening is happening.

So honored that our Fault Lines film “The Night Won’t End” about Israeli war crimes in Gaza was nominated for a Peabody Awards. Though we filmed this over a year ago, the horrors we documented remain a daily reality for 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. peabodyawards.com/award-profile/…

Late last year, Harper's Magazine sent me to the West Bank to report on the state of the nonviolent resistance movement. Nothing I had seen over more than a decade of reporting there prepared me for the levels of fear and devastation I encountered. harpers.org/archive/2025/0…

A heartbreaking scene: displaced families burned alive, most of them women and children, after an Israeli airstrike targeted their tents in the Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Younis.

as we keep getting reports like this, it's still unclear how many Americans are affected because Homeland Security has not provided numbers on citizens detained by immigration authorities and isn't answering Congressional inquiries about them propublica.org/article/more-a…

And just as a reminder, ICE has arrested and deported many U.S. citizens in the past! gao.gov/products/gao-2…

Congratulations to Laila Al-Arian, Kavitha Chekuru, Sharif Kouddous شريف عبد القدوس and their Fault Lines colleagues for being recognized by the Overseas Press Club for their remarkable documentary, “The Night Won’t End,” which documented the depth of US support for Israel’s war on Gaza

Trying to plan hangouts with my “DC” friends while I’m in town this week:

I have been receiving some messages asking for book recommendations on Kashmir. Here is a fantastic list compiled by Stand With Kashmir -- a diaspora-led group which seeks to raise awareness about the occupation. Check out their site for more resources. standwithkashmir.org/books-films-on…

Ok this is pretty cool. Teen Vogue just published an excerpt from my Copaganda book today!

In 2006, the Bush administration tried to suspend/limit habeas corpus, as the basis for its illegal detentions at the Guantanamo Bay torture camp. This was done through the Military Commissions Act, which also allowed for arbitrary detention of any person, citizen or not,

40 years ago on this date, police dropped a bomb on a West Philadelphia neighborhood phillytrib.com/commentary/edi…

Not long ago, when the bakeries were still operating, I went to the bakery—or rather, to the greatest struggle I have ever faced in my life. I entered amid more than a thousand people reaching their hands towards the bakery window. After a struggle that lasted more than six

This morning I watched a video of an old man with an amputated leg sobbing because he’s hungry. The focus has been on children but no one deserves this.

Greek doctor Christos Georgalas on his stint in Gaza: "I can’t say I went to war. War is a very different thing. There was no war in Treblinka, there was no war in Auschwitz. War has two armies. Here you have a population that is mainly civilians and women and children, who
