Extraordinary how not a single Israeli propagandist dared challenge any of the evidence we presented in this short movie, more than 48 hours later! Because we brought all the receipts that expose the pathological liars they are, in the words of their own leaders & founders
🚨This short film exposes the true story of Israel's creation, entirely through the words of its own founders For decades, Israel’s lies have been carefully designed to demonize its victims. To ensure that no matter the crimes it commits, the children it slaughters, the world remains incapable of empathy for Palestinians, or at best, treats it with the same apathy that has allowed this to go on for as long as it has On the 78th anniversary of its creation, it's time the world knew that Israel's past is not different from the brutal present the world is finally seeing

Yet another sign that the capitalist empire is crumbling. The best time to stop buying shit you don't need was yesterday, but the second best time is NOW.
Tonight, after a year of screaming about holding ICE accountable, 144 House Democrats joined 203 Republicans to pass CORCA, a bill that grants DHS and ICE sweeping new power to collect American citizens' personal information under the guise of combating retail theft.

Ousmane Sembene made a beautiful, heartbreaking film about this massacre, you can watch it for free on the Black Film Archive blackfilmarchive.com/Camp-de…
82 years ago, on December 1st 1944, African soldiers who fought and bled to help defeat the Nazis were massacred by the French army at Thiaroye massacre after demanding the salary they were promised. They survived Hitler, only to be murdered by the empire they defended.

as a toddler the iof separated my sister from my mother & strip searched her in a dark interrogation room as a kid the iof refused to let me use the bathroom and made me go outside next to a billboard while they watched across the street & my mom & aunt had to cover me from their leering eyes as a teenager the iof kidnapped my cousin from his home without cause and dropped him off on the street, blindfolded, beaten & bruised 2 weeks later this is our reality as palestinians, inside occupied territory, in gaza and in the diaspora. we will not compromise or bow down to zionism in any fashion, and we will NEVER normalize it.
As a kid I hid behind the wall when I heard the IDF coming in their vehicles. As a teenager, my mom and I were kicked off the bus to Al-Aqsa and forced to walk miles just cause. As an adult, I was stripped of my clothes and held at gunpoint by an IDF soldier for smiling.

If Hamas fired a single shot post ceasefire, we’d never stop hearing about it. But Israel has carried out 1,228 airstrikes and shelling attack on Palestinians inside the Gaza concentration camp since the ceasefire began.
💢 REPORT | Israeli forces have now carried out 1,228 airstrikes and shelling attacks and 1,060 live-fire incidents across Gaza since the “ceasefire” was agreed to last October, according to a report shared by the Palestinian side with mediators and obtained by Drop Site News. Tuesday alone saw 10 new violations recorded across the Strip, including strikes that killed three Palestinians, among them 15-year-old Mahmoud Mohammad Sahwil, and wounded dozens more. The total number of documented Israeli ceasefire violations has now reached 2,741. 10 incidents recorded on Tuesday: 🔹 Civilian killed and others wounded in a strike targeting a vehicle on Al-Jalaa Street in central Gaza City 🔹 Israeli forces shelled eastern Khan Younis 🔹 Civilian killed and others wounded in an Israeli drone strike on a motorcycle near Kuwait Roundabout, south of Gaza City 🔹 A girl wounded by Israeli gunfire inside Al-Ikhwa shelter camp in Al-Bureij 🔹 Mahmoud Mohammad Sahwil, 15, killed and several others wounded in an Israeli airstrike on a building in Al-Nasr neighborhood, Gaza City 🔹 Israeli quadcopter drone opened fire near Abu Humaid Roundabout in central Khan Younis 🔹 Israeli forces opened fire toward eastern Khan Younis 🔹 Israeli tank advanced into eastern central Gaza, accompanied by live fire and explosive drops from drones along Salah al-Din Road 🔹 Artillery shelling targeting northeast of Al-Bureij Camp 🔹 Explosive demolition of residential blocks east of Gaza City Since the ceasefire took effect, 837 Palestinians have been killed — including 216 children, 91 women, and 23 elderly — and 2,381 wounded, of whom more than half are children, women, or elderly. 73 civilians have also been detained. Israel also continues to hold approximately 34 square kilometers beyond agreed withdrawal lines and has blocked repairs to electricity, water, and sewage infrastructure. Aid and movement restrictions remain severe: Aid entry ▪️ Only ~37.4% of agreed humanitarian aid has entered — ~224 trucks per day vs. 600 agreed ▪️ Fuel deliveries at just 14.8% of required levels Rafah crossing ▪️ Rafah crossing fully closed on the reported day ▪️ Only 4,446 of 14,200 planned crossings carried out (~31.3%) ▪️ Medical and humanitarian travel remains severely restricted

“If they can do this to us, they can do it to anyone.” Believe it. We were stopped at sea—4,000 km from Israel. Unarmed. Civilian. International waters. If this is allowed, no one is safe.

I’m running to be the first Palestinian Muslim woman elected in New York State. That’s making the right wing very angry.  Before you hear their Islamophobic, bad faith attacks against me, know the facts.

CNN directive in the early days after 10/7: “all copy on all platforms that’s connected in any way to the Israeli or Palestinian stories” must “be approved in advance by the Jerusalem bureau.”

Believing they’d stop at Gaza is what got us here. Remember that.

Israel has now seized a larger percentage of Lebanon's total landmass than Russia has taken from Ukraine since its 2022 invasion. The latter was immediately met with international uproar and unprecedented multi-sectoral sanctions while the former is barely even mentioned.

Israel's conviction rate of Palestinians (in military courts) is 99.74% Israel's conviction rate of reported settler attacks on Palestinians is 1.8% Israel's death sentence will only apply against Palestinians not Israeli Jews It's not complicated. It's Apartheid!
