“The purpose behind the release of herbicide on the villages remains unclear.”

Israel has been dumping herbicides throughout southern Lebanon as part of a concerted ecocide campaign to render the region uninhabitable. This has been going on for months with Lebanese journalists & environmentalists regularly reporting on it.

Yeah I mean zingers aside it's a real unhinged threat of violence

How does one gut a pig?

Australians returning from prison camps in Syria are clearly loathed by politicians. But what about the thousand or so Australians who’ve also spent time in the Middle East fighting in the IDF against innocent gardens. What happens to them when they come home?

Fuck your apartheid ethnostate

'Threat to life': State of emergency declared across entire region as low rapidly deepens People are strongly urged to take this seriously and prepare now.

Tragically I think 11 people have already died in Aotearoa this year because of extreme weather. We need to reduce our emissions and invest in climate adaptation with urgency. But naturally, this government is instead pursuing coal mines and an LNG terminal. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/weather-l...

A little girl struggles to pull her father’s wheelchair to transport a gas cylinder at one of the camps for displaced people in Gaza.

This is getting frightening. I have no where to go and want to be with my son. Please, PLEASE help 💔🙏

I’d never in a million years be doing this for as long as I’ve had to if it wasn’t bad to start with and then suddenly got WAY worse by no fault of my own. I brought up GENDER DISCRIMINATION FFS!

“The solution for Gaza is to get all the Gazans out of #Gaza, either by emigration or by eliminating the residents.”
Read that again.This isn’t a fringe comment online.
It was said on Israeli TV, Channel 14, on February 10,by strategic adviser Ramy Piro.A fellow panelist, lawyer Tamar Arbel, agreed.

I can't fucking imagine the horrendous output of an LLM trying to generate x86-64 instructions

What Israel does so often w/ the organs of Palestinians is so unbelievably crazy that you sound insane just repeating it. It’s actually quite the cover for bad acts, make them so horrific nobody can believe they’re even possible. This teacher got fired for repeating what Palestinian doctors say...

Tamer Nahed 𓂆🇵🇸 @Tamer_Alnoaizy BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was “spam” and that it was “causing harm.” What kind of logic is this? The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us. Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as “violations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime. What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful. [the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.] 2:45 PM · Feb 10, 2026 https://twitter.com/Tamer_Alnoaizy/status/2021234178461704409

palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

over a month since the 3 day suspension should've been served. reminder that bluesky is actively courting celebrities and well reknowned figures, but an oscar nominated hollywood director doesn't count cos she advocates for palestine and other causes.

Fresh video shows police pushing protester before fight broke out A new video filmed by a bystander and shared with ABC NEWS Verify shows the full minute before two police officers began punching a protester, shedding light on the beginning of the altercation.

Incredible footage - a new video shows a full minute before an incident where an protest attendee was repeatedly punched by police. Both the Premier and NSW Police have told us not to judge 30 second videos because we don't know what preceeded them. Well...

Shared with us from Sydney happening now. He had his hands up.

Screenshot from ABC News site this morning. "Albanese 'devastated' by scenes at protest against Herzog visit." Quotes a radio interview on Triple M Hobart in which he blames protestors for not obeying police instructions about 'a particular route'.

Albanese says he was "devastated" by clashes between police & protestors, but implies it was protestors' fault.

He wasn't 'devastated' by the genocide his government is complicit with in Gaza.

He wasn't 'devastated' by the massacre & mutilation of Palestinian children. #auspol

The choice made by @australianlabor.bsky.social, at Federal & State level, to not only allow Herzog to enter Australia, but to lavishly host him, close down half of Sydney to protect him and direct police to deliberately assault people who protested against him, is THE END of Labor. #AusVotes2028
