Fellow travellers who've been there for the entire journey now getting out at the final stops, pretending they didn't know where this voyage was headed all along
I don't know, just thinking if Bari Weiss is panicking there are probably - at minimum - much worse photos than we have seen yet
oh man did you get that one wrong
'Something just fell off my shoulders. There was this sense that I'm the right guy in the right job at the right time.' @DavidLammy opens up to James O'Brien about having imposter syndrome at every stage of his life, until he became Foreign Secretary.
🚨Exposing Israel's sinister blame game: Since Oct 2023, Israel has been forcing aid trucks to empty their cargo at Gaza's border crossings & leave Then the few remaining trucks inside Gaza have to petition Israel for a permit to come & collect those piling truckloads. IDF…
Again has literally anyone of the hundreds of politicians who shovel money to Israel (actual material support) ever been asked by anyone in the media to ever condemn any of Netanyahu or Gallant’s explicitly genocidal rhetoric, much less their ACTUAL genocide in Gaza? Ever?

you care about Gaza, talk about the famine. People are dying from hunger. There is no flour, no milk for babies, no food for children. I spent the entire day searching for something to feed my family and found nothing. Hunger is not a feeling, it is a slow death. It has become…
Extraordinary. AFP says its journalists are in imminent risk of being starved to death by Israel. This has never happened since the agency was founded. Never has any of its journalists been starved to death
In November 2023 the IDF shot an 84-yearold Catholic & church musician, Elham Farah,outside Holy Family Parish. Her family heard her crying out all night. Elham was still alive in the morning, when the IDF ran over her with a tank. So yes, I think they intended to hit the parish

About the hypocrisy, double standards of the world, Hamed Ashour from #Gaza, writes: "A year ago, I shared the story of this very friendly dog. What a lucky dog he turned out to be, his story was featured in Arab and international magazines, read by over 5 million people around…
Voilà, pour terminer cette couverture pour aujourd'hui, une image qui peut faire consensus. Des syriens sont venus aider les services de la capitale pour balayer et effacer les traces des frappes israéliennes ce jour à Damas. Voilà l'endurance de ce peuple à toutes épreuves. Ne…
Years before October 7, I sat on a sweltering Gaza beach beside my late friend Ali, gazing at a horizon we could never access A bullet struck the sand between us. Fired from an Israeli gunboat enforcing the siege. An Israeli soldier almost murdered us out of boredom! Had he…
It’s 91 F degrees in Gaza with 60% humidity. Tents in the sun turn into boilers & ovens The IDF is telling heat-stroked & starved Gazans: we’ll murder you immediately if you dip yourself in the water to cool off or try to catch fish. Touching the sea is fully forbidden

📍 Occupied West Bank After beating 2 Palestinians to death, the Israeli settler mob in North Ramallah attacked a Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance trying to rescue them.
They've been saying this stuff since day 1. Framing it as "increasingly blunt" is just a way of excusing themselves for only turning against the genocide now
Some Israeli parliamentarians are becoming increasingly blunt language when discussing Palestine, as @RoryStewartUK explains.

Israeli occupation forces attempt to run over a Palestinian man as he tried to reach his home near Balata refugee camp, east of Nablus in the occupied West Bank
This is so obviously genocidal it’s embarrassing that there’s still people out there defending it
"Netanyahu told lawmakers during closed-door testimony ... yesterday that Israel is “destroying more and more houses [in Gaza and Palestinians accordingly] have nowhere to return” “The only obvious result will be Gazans choosing to emigrate outside of the Strip”
I’m very worried about the growing acceptability of anti Semitism. Disgusted to see @jeremycorbyn, who led British Labour Party towards anti Semitism and defeat, strongly endorse @ZohranKMamdani with 55,000 likes. I hope Mandani has the moral fiber to disavow the support.

In fairness, it's a good bit to post a piece that has as one of its points "the Palestinian people refused a state because they're all bloodthirsty antisemites" as proof you care about Palestinian civilians
Not only is it possible but I’ve written about it repeatedly, most recently here: thetimes.com/comment/column… Do the people who refuse to acknowledge what happened at Nova specifically and during Oct 7 generally understand any of that? I doubt it
I’ll never forgive Assad apologists & chemical attack deniers for the smear campaigns they waged against the White Helmets. While these tankies parroted Assad’s lies, the Helmets were pulling children from the rubble in 2023 & are now battling wildfires to save the Syrian coast.
