I arrived too late to an abduction yesterday. Ice vehicles boxed in a food delivery driver on the highway. They took him, and when I came on the scene (with a few other neighbors in cars), his keys were still in it. We found his phone, a debit card, his car title and registration.

Her community rallied so fast and so diligently. This is a victory to uphold and celebrate. Reminds everyone that it's worth fighting back.

A member of the Israeli bobsled team is a reservist in the 188th Armored Brigade, a brigade that carried out the triple-tap attack on journalists at Nasser Hospital.

There is simply no moral argument for allowing war criminals to compete at the Olympics.

Kids in concentration camps

Here I write on the current state of Birzeit

"Inside of the detention center captives work for $1 a day– a single 15-minute phone call is $5."

just a reminder that the united states is essentially operating a network of torture camps holding individuals in arbitrary detention, without access to appeal and rarely to counsel.

Glyphosate: What Indigenous communities have suspected for years about the dangers of the herbicide The recent retraction of peer-reviewed research claiming glyphosate is safe confirms what Indigenous communities have said for years.

In 2015, the Intl Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” Of particular concern for Indigenous communities as it is sprayed on the berries, animals, medicines and fish that make up their traditional food systems.

Israel told the UN to stay away from those areas for 9 hours while it kills all plant life. This is a war crime, and Israel is so comfortable committing war crimes that they announce them in advance.

Vicious, depraved men celebrate vicious, depraved men.

I thought this would be a good piece and then it descended into the snobishest of all snobby conclusions that the problem is that the amoral elite of our world don't have good writing and spelling skills. Bad grammar is not a central problem of our age--I think their victims will agree

The things Carney didn't say are the things he doesn't value, the battles he chooses not to fight.

The Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza has not stopped. On Saturday, Israeli military airstrikes across Gaza killed at least 32 Palestinians, including six children, in one of its worst assaults during the so-called ceasefire.

We can't lecture the world about shredding the international rules-based order and then pal around with the people who have been shredding it before our very eyes for the last 2 years - not to mention all the decades of occupation and apartheid that preceded this horrific moment.

Screenshot of a tweet from Evan Solomon. It has two photos of him meeting with the Israeli Ambassador to Canada with the caption: This morning, I met with Israel’s Ambassador to Canada as part of ongoing engagement on technology, AI, and economic development. Dialogue matters, particularly in complex times. / Ce matin, j'ai rencontré l'ambassadeur d'Israël au Canada dans le cadre d'un engagement continu en matière de technologie, d'intelligence artificielle et de développement économique. Le dialogue est important, en particulier dans les périodes complexes.

This post has been on my mind for a few days now, so I’m going to say something about it. 🧵

🔹 Both water and electricity supplies were cut to UNRWA installations in Shu’fat Camp, Occupied East Jerusalem, across 27-28 January, as provisions of the Israeli anti-UNRWA laws came into effect

Latest update on #Gaza and the Occupied #WestBank: www.unrwa.org/resources/re...

IDF accepts Gaza Health Ministry death toll of over 71,000 Palestinians killed in the war Although Many International Experts Have Accepted the Health Ministry's Data as Reliable, and Even Conservative Relative to the True Death Toll, Israel Had Refused to Accept the Health Ministry's Coun...

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

YouTube video by MS NOW Snyder: Trump administration using words like ‘terrorist’ and ‘extremist’ is what tyrants do

"In order to build tyranny, you have to open zones where the law doesn't apply... one zone like that is the border. The logic of what they've been doing with ICE is to take the border everywhere."

For those (of us) who have researched, published books, chapters, Journal articles, conference papers on racist immigration violences, including deportation and detention, your work is needed now more than ever. Share it, wield it, care with it.

Today I joined a vigil with my dear nursing colleagues at the clinic I work at, to remember his sacrifice for simply being a helper. In a world fraught with fascism and tyranny, choose to be a helper like Alex.

Be a helper like Alex Pretti. He was an ICU nurse who knew that his work of caring and helping others extended beyond the hospital and clinic walls. And for that, he was executed in broad daylight by federal ICE agents.

You'd think this moment might be a good time to start an actual domestic vehicle industry in Canada rather than just switching reliance from one country to another. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

They're stealing everything. Anyone want to join me in going back to using a typewriter and sharing manuscripts via post?

With the opening of the Rafah border crossing, we are likely to finally see international reporters in Gaza. Israel prevented foreign journalists from entering the Strip for two years and four months, and the IDF killed more than 200 local reporters during that period.

Apartheid state Israel

2/ Like the people of Minneapolis, Chicago, Atlanta and other cities, Canada is also under attack by Trump. We should not be providing any Canadian products to a government using them against its own people.

Two article screenshots side by side. The first: Vancouver tech firm Hootsuite provides services to US Homeland Security. The second: 'Fantastic news': Ford welcomes ICE plan to order Ontario armoured vehicles.

1/ As the people of Minneapolis rise up against ICE, it's painful and shameful that Canadian companies are selling armoured vehicles to Trump's masked militia and providing tech support to the dept of Homeland Security.

On a related note: "Canada doesn't live because of the United States, Canada thrives because we are Canadian." -- means nothing. It's meaningless drivel in response to Trump's threatening meaningless drivel. AI generated swill? Probably.

This moment calls for more than ____, it calls for _____. The powerful have power but we also have something: ___________. AI generated student material is awash with these phrases.
