Israeli Army Kills Eight Palestinians Across Gaza Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple attacks across the Gaza Strip at dawn Sunday, killing eight Palestinians and injuring many others in strikes ...

The genocide is ongoing. Energy must remain fixed on stopping the annihilation of Gaza and Palestine more broadly. There is no ceasefire when bombs still fall, when siege still strangles, when civilians are still being killed. imemc.org/article/isra...

Reminder that Francesca Albanese is not being targeted for a sentence twisted and lifted out of context in a speech.

She is being targeted for daring to name the names of giant companies complicit in the crime of genocide.

They would rather destroy international law than be accountable to it.

Zionism is an affront to humanity.

That privileges one ethno-national group over another.

That has enabled dispossession and unequal rights.

While state policies carried out in its name violate international law or human rights norms.

Only demons could support it.

It is reprehensible that European ministers have attacked Francesca Albanese based on a deliberately truncated video; a bad-faith distortion meant to misrepresent and gravely misconstrue her message. Watch her full address. The truth doesn’t survive selective editing and that’s precisely the point!

Don’t let your disgust turn into despair and paralysis. Moral clarity is useful only if it fuels action: speaking, organizing, documenting, creating, building alternatives. You are not alone!
