CPJ calls for Anas Al-Sharif’s protection in face of Israeli smears - Committee to Protect Journalists New York, July 24, 2025β€”The Committee to Protect Journalists is gravely worried about the safety of Al Jazeera Arabic’s Gaza correspondent Anas Al-Sharif, who is being targeted by an Israeli military ...

2 weeks ago: β€œThis is not the first time [Anas] Al-Sharif has been targeted by the Israeli military, but the danger to his life is now acute”

Throughout the 22 months of US-backed war in Gaza, clear warnings have gone unheededβ€”a choice by policymakers in DC under Biden+Trump

Police believe, after speaking with shooter's family, that CDC was the target
From CNN's John Miller

After speaking with the suspected shooter’s family members, police are operating under the theory that he was either sick or believed that he was sick and blamed the illness on the Covid-19 vaccine, a law enforcement official told CNN.

Chris Smallsβ€”a Black American labor leaderβ€”was trying to feed Palestinians being starved in Gaza. The IDF detained and beat him for it.

This assault must not go unnoticed and he must be freed immediately.

Israel must be held to account. Let aid through. End the genocide.
