Protesters calling for a hostage deal sprayed “Bibi is a murderer״ on the Likud headquarters in Tel Aviv

We live in a strange world when a generation calling for an end to mass killing are slandered as radicals and extremists, while those arguing for more mass killing are seen as reasonable and even victims.

French foreign minister says he has a roadmap to deescalate tensions btw Hezbollah-Israel - his visit to Beirut coincides amid mounting pressure on Israel and Hamas to move towards a deal. A Gaza ceasefire could lead to a cessation of hostilities btw Israel and Hezbollah ...

Palestinian released from Israeli prison describes beatings, sexual abuse and torture haaretz.com/israel-news/tw….

I've talked about this before but it bears repeating: Palestinian detainees are being subject to sexual abuse and horrendous treatment in Israeli prisons. Sky News did an interview with a released prisoner and he spoke about how he was sexually harassed.

Far-right National Sec Minister Ben-Gvir writes 'reminder' to a previous post he made in January, saying 'Reckless deal = dismantling of the government.'

This happens as reports suggest ceasefire/captives talks between #Israel and #Hamas are gaining new momentum.

Seeing commentary that ICC arrest warrants against Israeli officials would create a dangerous precedent because Israel isn’t a party to the Rome Statute.

Guess who else isn’t a party to the Rome Statute?

This is one of many reasons why Justin is a stellar journo. He grasps power dynamics, reports without compromising his values, and his reporting is rooted in sound understanding of history.

The result is a nuanced and human picture of the contexts he covers.

'There's no secrtarianism in Egypt'
' This is fitna '
This false lie we tell ourselves must end.
We must all educate ourselves on the prosection of Copts and shed light on this situation since the Egyptian police is incapable of protecting its own vulnerable miniority.

The The New York Times explains why American students are more likely to protest the war than their peers abroad without mentioning the simple fact that we are paying for this war. Most American journalists have completely lost the plot.

But they are scared and you can tell. The fact they are lobbying against the UNGA Srebrenica Genocide Resolution is proof enough. They know what this means. They know that their crimes in Gaza, in the West Bank and throughout Palestine mirror the crimes committed in Bosnia.
