Chris Van Hollen can go fuck himself. he was handpicked by Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi for his MIC street cred. FFS Netanyahu has a minister that we don't even know if he is still in the USA terrorist list Israeli media says he's been in since, at the very list, 2007.
The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor (#EuroMed) says an investigation it conducted into the killing by the Israeli military of 12 members of a Palestinian family, mostly women and children, on December 4 as they tried to evacuate a Gaza City neighbourhood found that the drone strike was “without justification or necessity”.
The center of #Vovchansk after the attack by Putin's russian war criminals. Today, russian troops attempted to break through Ukrainian defense lines in #Kharkiv oblast #Ukraine. The most intense fighting was around Vovchansk where russian aviation dropped bombs on Ukrainians. -From Ronan Sheremeta
At a military base that now doubles as a detention center in Israel’s Negev desert, an Israeli working at the facility snapped two photographs of a scene that he says continues to haunt him.
GAZA IS HELL ON EARTH: famine, lack of water & fuel, untreated injuries, disease, #domicide..
Rafah has a spiraling HC crisis.
Israel’s MIL ops. have overwhelmed hospitals -already struggling to treat patients suffering from malnutrition & disease.
Bodies lay where they fell, in the “red zone” -few ambulances available could not reach bc of Israeli bombardment. Border crossings remained closed Thurs, stranding critically ill patients-.
Israeli #warcrimes, Palestinians abused in detention💔:
MIL base -now doubles as a detention center in IL’s Negev desert: Rows of men in gray tracksuits seen sitting on paper-thin mattresses, ringfenced by barbed wire -blindfolded -heads hanging heavy under the glare of floodlights.
Racist undercurrents in Australian society should not be downplayed @faab64
To some degree, we're all subject to it. Yes, even white Anglo-Protestants.
One clear sign of how ignorant and immature the college protesters are is how they all don't seem to want to be held accountable for the crimes they committed.
I wish that our U.S. campuses would at least still assign students to read MLK's Letter from a Birmingham jail, and Thoreau's essay on Civil Disobedience.
I think these protesters have failed the guidelines of: collection of the facts to determine whether injustices exist; negotiation; self-purification; and effective direct action.
There cannot be double legal and moral standards, ..."with liberty and Justice for all.”
As a sidenote:
History will judge whether the current presiden of Russia or Israel or the former president of the US, #TFG, will have caused the most lasting damage to their respective countries in the long run.
What is at stake for the USA is nothing less than Democracy and individual...
Where the hell are the "international observers" who were queuing to visit the "mass graves" in Ukraine? Where is EU? Where are US state department? Where is UN?
What does it take for the world to (at least) investigate these allegations?
A petition to the Parliament of Australia:
"The ongoing violence and oppression against Palestinians by the Israeli government violate fundamental human rights principles. The disproportionate use of force, illegal settlements, and blockade of Gaza have resulted in immense suffering and loss of life. Our nation should not support regimes engaged in such violations. Action Requested: We urge the Prime Minister to take a principled stand against the Israeli government's actions by severing diplomatic ties, ending military support, and condemning human rights abuses in Palestine." https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN6106 #AusPol #IsraelPalestineConflict #Israel #Palestine #WarCrimes #CrimesAgainstHumanity #genocide @palestine @israel
What's with this Israel BS about continuing the attacks until Hamas releases Israeli hostages. Hamas agreed to release the #hostages as part of the #ceasefire deal but #Israel turned down the release of hostages because that would mean they would have to stop murdering innocent men, women and children. #Netanyahu has never cared about the hostages.
I'm livid, I understand #MAGAMike's motive, but Min. Ldr McConnell shouldn't question Pres Biden as he finally limits arms to IL bc of the famine in Gaza & #domicide, meaning, that the Palestinians have nowhere safe to go: their homes, bus'... destroyed💔. It should be bc of credible #warcrimes, #IHL... The #ICC is considering issuing arrest warrants for Netanyahu & other top IL officials for alleged war crimes, incl. genocide, incitement to genocide, & the crime of apartheid123.
"Pres Biden tells Erin Burnett that if Israel invades the city of Rafah, the US will stop supplying it with artillery shells, bombs for fighter jets & other offensive weapons."
-Barak Ravid
Thankfully, Pres Biden disregarded Speaker Johnson & Min. Leader McConnell's letter today, expressing alarm about the decision to pause a weapons shipment to Israel and ask for clarification by the end of the week.
