“In The Genocide Case Against Israel At The Hague, The #US Is The Unnamed #CoConspirator: #SouthAfrica laid out a meticulous case detailing Israel’s genocidal intent. The US supported it all”

by Jeremy Scahill in @theintercept

“While the U.S is not named in South Africa’s case, it has openly and enthusiastically supported and armed Israel’s campaign and should be viewed as an unnamed co-conspirator to Israel’s actions. While the #ICJ proceedings may do nothing to halt Israel’s murderous rampage in Gaza, a ruling in South Africa’s favor would increase pressure on countries across the world to make their positions clear. It would also serve as an important test of whether nations, namely U.S. allies in Europe, believe in upholding international laws and conventions or whether they accept the U.S. as the ultimate overlord enforcing its own set of unevenly applied rules.”

“From Gaza To Congo: On Zionism and the Unlearned History of Genocide”

by Ramzy Baroud in @counterpunch

“Due to the lack of enthusiasm on the part of pro-Israel Western countries, Israeli diplomats are circumventing the globe looking for governments which are willing to accept ethnically-cleansed Palestinians.

Imagine if this behavior stemmed from any other country in the world; a country that murders people en masse, yet shops around looking for other states to accept the expelled survivors in exchange for cash.

Not only has Israel made a mockery of international law, but they have also set whole new standards of despicable behavior by any state, anywhere in the world, in any time in history, ancient or modern.

And yet, the world continues to watch, support, as in the case of the US, or gently or vehemently protest, but without taking a single meaningful action to stop the bloodbath in Gaza, or to block the terrifying scenarios that could truly follow if the war does not end.”

“Israel’s genocide in Gaza exposes the racism of the international system: Francesca #Albanese and Susan #Abulhawa discuss the role Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza plays in the global systems of diplomacy, economics, and culture.”

via Witnessing Palestine on @YouTube

“As the International Court of Justice prepares to hear South Africa’s petition accusing Israel of genocide, Frank Barat talks to Francesca Albanese and Susan Abulhawa about the role Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza plays in the global systems of diplomacy, economics, and culture. The outcome of this shocking destruction of a civilian population will have implications for the entire world. Is Palestinian resistance to the Israeli occupation and apartheid really the only thing standing in between a world governed by laws and one subject to the whims of those with money and weapons?”

“ISRAELI GROUP CLAIMS IT’S WORKING WITH BIG TECH INSIDERS TO CENSOR ‘INFLAMMATORY’ WARTIME CONTENT: Iron Truth members have flagged thousands of posts for removal, from clearly racist or false content to posts that are merely sympathetic to Palestinians.”

by Sam Biddle in @theintercept

“A small group of volunteers from Israel’s tech sector is working tirelessly to remove content it says doesn’t belong on platforms like Facebook and TikTok, tapping personal connections at those and other Big Tech companies to have posts deleted outside official channels, the project’s founder told The Intercept.

The project’s moniker, “Iron Truth,” echoes the Israeli military’s vaunted Iron Dome rocket interception system.”

“Western Empire Bombs #Yemen To Protect Israel’s Genocide Operations In Gaza”

by Caitlin Johnstone on @substack

“So the US and the UK just bombed the poorest country in the middle east for trying to stop a genocide. Not only that, they bombed the very same country in which they just spent years backing Saudi Arabia’s genocidal atrocities which killed hundreds of thousands of people between 2015 and 2022 in an unsuccessful bid to stop the Houthis from taking power.”

“The Politics Of Emergency Time And The Emerging Threat Of Fascism”

by Henry #Giroux in @counterpunch

“We live in an era of dire emergencies. The urgency of the times demands a politics that recognizes that the looming threat of fascism presents us with a moment in which it is crucial not to give up on the imagination, to imagine the impossible as possible, and to embrace a vision of the future and sense of collective struggle in which there is life beyond gangster capitalism. This is not a choice; it is a necessity.”

#Hamas is of course resisting the #genocide in #Gaza. However, there isn’t much information in English language media about their resistance. Western media relies exclusively on Israeli Govt press releases or tame “journalists” embedded in Israeli forces. For those interested, the Electronic Intifada is one alternative, and from a pro-Palestinian point of view provides relatively dispassionate discussion of many facets of the war in Gaza. see eg. https://youtu.be/aBxDp15fOuE?si=xl0RxLzqEfyjn2it

“#AlShifa #Hospital’s Emergency Department is a ‘Bloodbath’ – WHO”

by Palestine Chronicle staff @palestinechron

“The hospital is overwhelmed with hundreds of injured patients, #WHO said in a statement, as new cases are arriving every minute. Trauma patients are being treated on the floor due to the lack of space, and pain management options are limited.

‘The emergency department is so crowded that health workers must exercise caution not to step on patients on the floor. Critical patients are being transferred to Al-Ahli Arab Hospital for necessary surgeries,’ the statement said.”

“The Horror, The Horror: Israel’s genocidal attacks, which are killing hundreds of Palestinians a day, have expanded to shelling the remaining hospitals in Gaza”

by Chris Hedges in The Chris Hedges Report on @substack

“Israel and Washington’s cynicism is breathtaking.There are no differences in intent. Washington only wants it done quickly. Humanitarian corridors? Pauses in the shelling? These are vehicles to facilitate the total depopulation of northern Gaza. The handful of aid trucks allowed through the border at Rafah with Egypt? A public relations gimmick. There is only one goal – kill, kill, kill. The faster the better. All Biden officials talk about is what comes next once Israel has finished its decimation of Gaza. They know Israel’s slaughter will not end until Gazans are living in the open without shelter in the southern part of the strip and dying because of a lack of food, water and medical care.”

You’re not picked, but we are. Our #God is the real one, while yours is fake and dirty. #People of other religions can be #killed, #beaten, and #maimed because they are not of our religion, but people of our own religion must be loved and cared for.

Forensic psychological expert: #MAGA "victimhood" is a major recruitment tool for #violence

"The sense of loss is a major driver for recruitment,"

One of the defining features of the rise of American neofascism is violence. This is in no way surprising: violence is one of the primary tools that enemies of democracy use to impose their will, undermine institutions, and prevent the types of consensus-seeking that's foundational to a healthy democracy and society
