Your reminder that Israel is one of only four rogue states in the entire world that refuses to ratify the Chemical Weapons Convention. Barbarians.
Israel is dropping toxic chemicals on farmland in South Lebanon We’re talking about catastrophic levels of glyphosate, a chemical linked to cancer 11,000 times above safe levels This is a deliberate war crime aimed at making life impossible and forcing people out of their land

Benjamin Netanyahu is an international fugitive. He is charged with the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.

The illegality of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank is one of the most well-established positions in international law, resting on four distinct pillars: 📜 GENEVA CONVENTIONS Article 49(6) of the Fourth Geneva Convention (1949) explicitly prohibits an occupying power from transferring parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies. Israel ratified the Convention in 1951. The International Committee of the Red Cross, the authoritative interpreter of humanitarian law, has consistently held that this provision applies directly to the settlements. 🌐 UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTIONS The Security Council has repeatedly affirmed settlement illegality — including in binding resolutions the US did not veto: • Res. 446 (1979): settlements have "no legal validity" • Res. 465 (1980): calls on Israel to dismantle existing settlements • Res. 2334 (2016): passed 14-0 (US abstained), explicitly states settlements constitute "a flagrant violation of international law" and have "no legal validity" ⚖️ ICJ RULINGS • Advisory Opinion on the Wall (2004): the Court found settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, had been established in breach of international law, and that the wall built to protect them compounded that illegality • Advisory Opinion on the Occupied Palestinian Territory (2024): the Court went further, ruling that Israel's continued presence in the OPT — including the settlement enterprise — is itself unlawful, and called on all states not to recognise or assist it 🏛️ UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY Countless UNGA resolutions have reaffirmed settlement illegality, including Res. 77/247 (2023), which requested the landmark 2024 ICJ opinion. No serious legal scholar disputes this consensus. The settlements are illegal. The only remaining question is whether the international community will act on it.
Which international law says that they are illegal?

Update from @HadiHtt who was targeted in an I$raeli attack in southern Lebanon earlier today while reporting on the ground in Kfar Tebnit in clearly identified press markings
Israeli drones targeted me while I was clearly filming a report in an open space with all requirements (press signs on the car, vest and helmet with press signs, cellphones open and not doing anything else. I was told that Lebanese army was blocking the road somewhere, so i went there searching for where the Lebanese army is. I stopped at Arnoun-Yohmor-Kfartebnit roundabout because i didn't want to go further. I got outside my car, with my cameras in the cage and my microphone with PressTV logo. I was filming when the Israeli drones deliberately attacked where I was standing, and not my car. Two brave men were able to come to my rescue after about 15 to 20 minutes. I was trying to get away from my car as I was expecting they might retarget it. 6 shrapnels hit my body (1 right chest, 3 right leg, 2 left leg). I am better now. Targeting journalists is a war crime. I wish if any international legal side was able to benefit from this video to Glory to the resistance, our only hope in front of those zionist criminals.

Only 16% of Americans support arming Israel without restrictions. So what is Congress doing? Burying a provision in the defense bill that would give Israel more military integration than any NATO ally. We must strip Section 224 from the Pentagon budget.

PRESIDENT LUKASHENKO WARNS ISRAEL!!! "Israel needs to be more careful and cautious. They've already earned such a rating in the world community by bombing Gaza — even in history, people are looking at what kind of Holocaust is this? What Holocaust are we talking about? When they killed so many people, first and foremost women and children. Children died in Gaza. They wiped everything off the face of the earth. What kind of resort are they planning to build on the bones of people? This is complete stupidity. So Israel also needs to take, as we say, their head in their hands and think about their own future existence."

If there's one account to follow on this hellscape, it's William Dalrymple. He places the truth of history right in front of us, completely dismantling the lies and propaganda being used to erase the Palestinian people. Essential following.
"The first step in liquidating a people is to erase its memory. Destroy its books, its culture, its history. Then have someone write new books, manufacture a new culture, invent a new history. Before long the nation will begin to forget what it is and what it was.” Milan Kundera

Trump says Lebanon is included in peace deal and Israel has to withdraw from southern Lebanon. Netanyahu says they won't do that. They will continue to attack in Lebanon, Gaza and Syria. The answer is obvious - cut them off. Not another dollar. Why would we pay them to defy us?

This man works for Tablet Magazine and publicly stated that he “would never work for Catholics.” Where is @JTLonsdale, @LeoTerrellDOJ and the @nypost? I was told that refusing to work with members of a particular group was so severe that it justified national media coverage, intervention by government officials, and campaigns to make someone permanently unemployable. This statement wasn’t made in a private email either. It was posted publicly. Is @tabletmag going to open an investigation? Will Adam get fired? Will the NYPost run an article about this tweet? Will American government officials and tech billionaires mobilize to condemn it and try to “ruin this man’s life”? Or is the principle only enforced when it’s politically convenient and the right people are being targeted?

IRELAND 🇮🇪 Ireland's Catholic Bishops have issued a very DIRECT message on the Irish establishment's attitude to the sanctity of life: • Asked why Covid was a public health emergency but 50,000 abortions are not • 'Neither the State, nor the mainstream media, seem to have any interest in exploring what leads women to choose abortion or what happens to them afterwards' • Encouraged Catholics to support those in crisis pregnancies • Backed politicians who defend life • SLAMMED efforts by Sinn Féin and the Social Democrats to expand abortion
