Israel echoes Russia use of “double tap” strikes, 1st strike aims to lure 1st responders and civilians, who are then annihilated by 2nd strike, as they aid wounded children. Israel’s genocidal savagery in Gaza annihilates decades of progress on international humanitarian law.

I don't like to tweet about the news, but this is just too much. I'm the doctor who wrote the recent @nytimes piece about what American healthcare workers saw in #Gaza. The @WHO reports today that Israel has banned five American aid agencies from working in Gaza. Israel gave no reason, but are all organizations with Arab leaderships. This is the easiest way to win important votes in a close presidential election in history: @POTUS and @VP should publicly announce that until the ban on American aid agencies is reversed #Israel will not receive American military aid. Simple, easy, literally zero security concerns involved, and what American law clearly requires.

While these scenes are hard to process, it is important to understand that extrajudicial executions of Palestinian civilians—often children—are absolutely not isolated incidents. These events represent a part of the systematic and widespread actions being carried out by Israeli soldiers in Gaza. The rationale? The opportunity to target (and destroy) the Palestinians, which the State of Israel appears determined not to let slip away.
A child mowed down by an Israeli snipper, then passers by who tried to help bombed. That's what a war crime looks like. No one can now claim they did not know when the reckoning comes. No one!

The Saab residential complex in Al Hosh has been completely levelled!!! Absolute insanity, there are dozens of homes in it, including my late uncle’s which is why my family has such an attachment to the apartment. Pure wanton destruction. #Lebanon

DOPPIO STANDARD Amnesty ricorda che le esecuzioni capitali sfiorano nel 2024 il numero di 200. Di tutto questo non c’è traccia però nel vertice, non se ne fa parola da parte dei paesi #Ue, che si fregiano di fondarsi sul rispetto dello Stato di Diritto. ilmanifesto.it/per-il-princi…

CPJ, @RSF_inter, and @freepressunltd demand that the Israeli government authorize the medical evacuation of two critically wounded @AJEnglish journalists, Ali Al-Attar and Fadi Al Wahidi, who are in need of immediate, lifesaving medical treatment.

Sinwar's death wouldn't have been as significant had it not been so close to the killing of his predecessor Ismail Haniyeh in July as well as Hezbollah's Nasrallah & almost all key public faces of the Iran axis like Soleimani in '20. The *optics* is that of an edifice collapsing

Gli inutili viaggi dei politici I politici oggi fanno viaggi inutili. Vanno poche ore in un posto e tornano con una sbiadita abbronzatura da statisti. Non leggono, non studiano e spiegano luoghi, popoli e culture che non hanno mai visto. Turisti distratti ne sanno più di loro.

Israel has violently dominated, expelled, and occupied Palestinians for over 75 years. But this history of oppression pales in comparison to the destruction wrought on Gazans over the past year — what many experts have termed a genocide. 972mag.com/apartheid-war-oct… @mekomit

Due giorni di viaggio, una spesa di 290mila euro, cioè 18mila euro a passeggero, per trasferirli nei centri di detenzione in Albania, uno spettacolo crudele sulla pelle di sedici persone prese a caso per essere usate come esempio in questo teatro dell'assurdo. Destra di governo

Ci fosse stata un’anima dell’opposizione, Elly Schlein magari, sul molo di Lampedusa a testimoniare il no di tanti a quella nave carica di migranti “maschi non vulnerabili” in viaggio verso il lager albanese voluto per loro dal governo Meloni. Ci fosse stata, ma non c’era

Any western journalist still clinging to the idea [even secretly] that reporters in Gaza/Lebanon are not "objective" clearly have not witnessed their people being burned alive and executed for more than a year. Stop confusing objectivity for apathy and indifference to Arab life.
