Reminder: aid is being sent to the Palestinian people, but the Zionist entity is only allowing a fraction of it in.
This humanitarian catastrophy is entirely man made.
A truck loaded with humanitarian aid from China crossed into the Gaza Strip on Sunday via Kerem Shalom border crossing. It was among the 1st batches of aid going through the crossing since the start of Israel-Hamas conflict on Oct. 7.

This tweet has attracted a ton of attention because people deny Jewish ancestry and indigenous rights to Israel. Everyone who has attacked this tweet believes that Jews don't deserve a state, and advocate for genocide of Israelis. Yes I was born in Scotland. I live in LA. Israel

Agree that he isn't the answer. I've yet to see proof that people are reading his letter that way. What I have seen is people say it made them realize that they don't "hate us for our freedom."
The corporate media isn't our teacher. We should strive to avoid baseless claims.
You cannot, realistically, get more authentic than a candidate for a non-corporate funded political party composed almost entirely of volunteers, whose membership are mostly working class and intelligentsia, and who are under near constant attack and smeared by a bourgeois party.

Palestinian people are human beings, but the west dehumanizes our brothers and sisters in Palestine to the point of using them as experimental subjects for their new weapons.
It is morally reprehensible and those responsible for this genocide must be held accountable.

What is Israel testing on Palestinians now?!

While anti-Zionist Jews gather to protest Israel, Zionists come and harass and disturb them and record them on video.
Rabbi Elhanan Beck and other anti-Zionist Jews live in London and are constantly harassed and attacked by Zionists.
It took Israel 33 days to come up with this fake ass evidence for their fake rape accusations. 33 days!
Israeli lies are not only fantasies, they are confessions as well.
They cannot help but act as todlers when they face consequences for their actions. Nearly every single one of them supports genocide, a vast majority support rape, and they all dwell on stolen land. But they literally throw a fit if they see any blowback. Pathetic.

Another example: how much have you seen or heard of the damage being done to peoples lives by the IMF in West Africa?
Even Sierra Leone, which is currently undergoing unrest due to it, receives little mention of that in the coverage that it does get.

The problem is settler colonialism.

Colonialism is and remains the greatest crime against humanity. The fact that it isn't recognized as such is due to international law being written by former and current colonial powers.
Committing genocide isn't popular with the youths these days and it is blatantly clear when you're being officially fed uncorroborated claims.

The Green Party is not just an electoral party: it is a party of activists and organizers.
The needs and desires of the oppresed are absent from much of political discourse: but the attention that Jill Stein's campaign has received - and her inclusion of Butch Ware as VP - has alleviated at least some of that.
Receiving validation, after being ignored, feels amazing.

Starvation is literally unhealthy. Exposure to the elements 24/7 due to a lack of housing is unhealthy.
Stress from financial hardship is unhealthy.
And the productive forces have developed to an adequate point to start addressing these issues.
That take they had was aweful
Healthcare workers trying to hold a press conference near the damaged Kamal Idwan Hospital in Gaza faced were intentionally shot at by IsraeI. They really think health workers are just terrorists.
Biden ran on being pro-environment, in contrast to Donald Trump. He claimed to follow science, to return America to sanity. None of this has been true.
This is a man who was forced to drop out in his 1988 run due to his lies.
Biden is not to be trusted, and neither is Trump.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline is a disaster waiting to happen. But it's Manchin's baby, & Biden doesn't care. So in the deal it goes
This is right after the Biden admin approved the Willow Project on the Alaskan North Slope, what he called "a disaster" on the 2020 campaign trail.

Maintaining a proper focus is essential at this moment. Now is not the proper time to have a debate over tactics.
This is the last update from Motaz.
As is the case with almost every, the Zionist occupation has been targeting educated Palestinians.
They have murdered journalists, doctors, academics, nurses, etc. in targeted attacks.
This has happened elsewhere too.
A quadcopter is above the front of my house door right now.
We are terrified and don’t know what to do
It was loaded when we first saw it but we couldn’t film it due to darkness and fear of being targeted
Ahed Tamimi, the “Palestinian peace activist” posted on her Instagram:
“Come on settlers, we will slaughter you. We are waiting for you in all the cities of the West Bank. What Hitler did to you was a nothing. We will drink your blood and eat your skulls. We are waiting for you.”
This is what the elites in the global north thinks of all of those in the global south.
What we are seeing in Palestine is similar to what we saw in Vietnam, and what we will see in the future.
At this moment solidarity is a must ✊🏻
This is a reflection of what our gov thinks of Palestinians.

Your daily reminder that Hamas HQ is located in the basement of the Shifa Hospital, and that under international law, this exposes it to lose its protected status and become a legitimate target.
The US state has committed economic terrorism, which kills people slow and in silence, across large swathes of the globe.
With 31 resolutions being passed against them for their blockade of Cuba alone, it is time to organize a civil disobedience to end their entire policy line.
The U.S. has ignored, with arrogance, the 31 resolutions adopted by the UN General Assembly condemning the blockade, as well as the numerous voices inside and outside U.S. territory that advocate the end of this policy.

Could you please explain to the readers how specifically you think Israel should handle itself in this situation? Not what they shouldn’t do, but what they should. If you speak about this topic you should probably focus on that no?

This sad little man is a genocide denying charlatan.
He is no different from those that deny the Armenian genocide, the holocaust (which killed millions more than the Zionists say, etc.)

The police in the US are a domestic military.
For us, demilitarization is both foreign and domestic.
As is the case with most settler-colonialist entities.
The erasure of history is part and parcel of cultural imperialism, which on its own is one of the faces of oppression, but also paves the way to other forms.
The global north bourgeoisie uses force, but also cultural hegemony to maintain its position in society.
Africa is portrayed as a continent without history before slavery and colonialism. African History isn't known by many people compared to the history of Europe, Americas, and Asia.
Some of the world's great civilisations such as Mali flourished in Africa.
