“Had there been YouTube and Instagram and TikTok around Auschwitz, this is what we would have seen, people burning alive. And it’s beyond horrendous, it’s beyond comprehension.”

Hamas Leader Yahya Sinwar: “Does the world expect us to be well-behaved victims while we are getting killed? For us to be slaughtered without making a noise?”

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese confirms that if the world truly saw the humanity in each Palestinian victim under Israeli occupation and apartheid, we might have stopped this unfolding tragedy.

253,000 have now signed the petition to strike this bill down. At the last election with millions of dollars of advertising money, ACT New Zealand got a total of 246,000 votes. You are done Spanky

"It is NOT a war. It is full destruction. It is GENOCIDE." Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt

I'm glad the media are covering Assad's prisons and the inhumane treatment of those detained. Maybe next they can also comprehensively cover Israel's equally barbaric prisons and the savage treatment of Palestinians.
