My friend Moureen, currently in Gaza is guest on this latest episode, talking about the situation on the ground and the PR smoke and mirrors of both last minute conscience switch ups as starvation sets in and continued Israeli propaganda "we swear we're providing aid" bullshit.

Palestinian journalists are the bravest on earth. They know their work is a death sentence as Israel openly hunts them, yet they do it out of duty to their people and defiance of a world that ignores their suffering—heroism western media can’t fathom

Israel has killed (conservatively) an avg of ~100 Palestinians a day for 675 days and people still feign outrage that exactly (1) day of killing doesn’t remain the alpha and omega of moral consideration. This is pure narcissism and racism. Palestinians are simply seen as subhuman

WTF I don't see anyone from Wall Street on here, or AIPAC, no private equity or Big Tech or AI billionaires, not a single Big Oil lobbyist -- I mean, how can you expect to solve problems if you don't have your policies written by the people causing those problems?

"I want to exterminate them, every last one of them.. Yes, the Palestinians, all of them" Psycho kibbutznik Avida Bachar explicitly calls for the genocide of Palestinians. In the quoted tweet - an overly long and thorough summary of a typical deranged broadcast on Israeli TV.

THREAD. A subtle but pervasive propaganda technique is when the news adopts as the *actual* motive the *stated* motive of people in power.

The preexisting condition of being born a Palestinian in Palestine is all that's needed for Israel to prescribe a death sentence.

"Combat age men" and "military-age males" are some of the most viciously propagandistic and genocidal epithets ever devised. They exist solely to nominally justify the slaughter of civilians, to lazily legitimize undeniable war crimes and crimes against humanity.

if you're wondering its not in the headline, its not in the sub headline, and it takes six paragraphs to vaguely mention Israeli responsibility. Palestinian children in Gaza appear to be traumatized by an earthquake.
