Pinned tweet, now and forever. Stanning Lenin will never go out of fashion

The Omar El Akkad "one day everyone will be against this" tweet was on October 25th, 2023. Me, probably you, everybody with a head on their shoulders knew that Israel had genocidal intent from the beginning. There have been no surprises about Gaza save the degree of inaction.
I just got my electricity bill! I think they charged me for the sunlight, moon light, street light, the light of the Holy Spirit, and the light at the end of the tunnel.
We’ve promised this new role to an internal candidate but let’s get 400 people to request 3 letters of recommendation just in case
All @AITCofficial MPs have decided to Only speak in Bangla in Parliament in this session. I think all DMK MPs should also speak only in Tamil @mkstalin during this session and all Shiv Sena MPs of the @OfficeofUT faction should also only speak Marathi in this session.
This debate on whether you can spot the difference between Indian or Bangladeshi Bengali speakers is insane. (Mostly, no; accents are complicated; differs village to village.) The point is: 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒆 can be persecuted for their religious/linguistic identity under this regime.
Read this very carefully: *One quarter* of all the people who have died of starvation in Gaza over the past 22 months have died in the past *3 days*
if you're wondering why 'the dam has broken' on Gaza, it's simple. Israel carried out their final solution. It's done. Every town has been flattened, everyone still alive is experiencing a level of famine they can't come back from. Criticizing it now is too late. That's why.
BREAKING: 🚨 IDF whistleblower EXPOSES that aid from 1,000 trucks was BURIED in pits or burned. The IDF dug pits and buried or burned the aid and then they blamed Hamas! Just let that sink in.
Every editor who canceled a story about Palestine brought us here. Every boss who censored an employee. Everyone who said “not this way” to protesters. Every university admin calling the cops. Bloody. All your hands are bloody, and we will never forget.
⚡This is a violation for which I find no words. ⚡In plagiarism, people take someone’s words and add their name. In LLM-GPT-generated AI slop, a pale imitation mimic-style string of words becomes the stand-in for you, the author. This is worse than plagiarism—because this is…


Gaza’s Health Ministry said hospitals in the Strip have recorded nine new starvation deaths in the past 24 hours, bringing the total number of starvation deaths to 122 amid Israel’s stifling blockade of the enclave. 🔴 Follow our LIVE coverage: aje.io/f4w0aa
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.
चुनाव आयोग एक 'राजनीतिक दल' की तरह व्यवहार करना बंद करे! 👉चुनाव आयोग के आंकड़ों के आधार पर अगर 17 लाख लोग बिहार से बाहर चले भी गए हैं, तो उन्हें अवैध वोटर किस आधार पर कहा जा रहा है? 👉ज़मीनी रिपोर्ट साफ़ तौर पर दिखाती हैं कि बिहार के लोगों को SIR फॉर्म की कोई रसीद नहीं दी…
People in Gaza are surviving on water and salt if you still don’t know
Maria Hannoun, a 5-year-old girl from Gaza, gives her message to the world.
Hang on a minute mate maybe you could stop arming Israel?
The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
As Palestinian children are being starved to death, Israelis have brought their kids to block aid trucks headed to Gaza. This is depraved behavior. They’re sick.
"Demilitarisation of Palestine"? As Israel commits genocide in its most sadistic forms, are new conditions being quietly slipped into the defunct peace process? And still no word on justice, accountability, or reparations, without which peace is unacceptable (post-WWII history…
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…
