“Flagrant War Crime”: Investigation Recreates 2025 Israeli Massacre, Cover-Up of 15 Gaza Aid Workers It’s been almost one year since Israeli forces killed 15 Palestinian medics and aid workers in a brutal two-hour massacre on a vehicle convoy in southern Gaza. Israeli soldiers had attempted to cover ...

Forensic Architecture and Earshot prove with certainty that Israeli soldiers killed and covered up the killing of 15 Gaza Aid workers. Murdering humanitarian aid workers is a crime under international law (remember international law?) @forensicarchi.bsky.social

All I can hope for now is that those with guns in their hands stop killing the civilians, even if they are ordered to do so.

I have been watching the news coverage in multiple countries including US, Qatar, Britain, France, Germany and Turkey, but could not find even one that is worth posting here. I feel speechless and helpless.

The protests in Iran for the last decade and now is epoch making. It is devastating to see people lose their lives when they ask to live in another way, under a different government. The courage of people and especially of women in this movement is world-inspiring, to say the least.

"Running the country" is the new parlance for Western colonialism and militarism, "reimbursement" for oil imperialism, added to the familiar tropes of "bringing democracy, justice and peace." In the meantime, the world is silent as if two wrongs make a right.

Cover of Architecture and the Right to Heal: Resettler Nationalism in the Aftermath of Conflict and Disaster. The cover features a photograph of rock-cut Cappadocian architecture. In the bottom-right corner, a building made from naked gray bricks with an arched window and door opening is visible. The surrounding rock is light grey with a rough surface and various hollowed-out chambers.
