Genocidal Israel has used US thermal weapons to “evaporate” almost 3,000 Palestinians, an investigation reveals.

The BDS movement calls for an end to global Israeli-US impunity through meaningful accountability measures now. Boycott. Divest. Sanction.

Please sign this and pass it along. We have to make a stand on this issue for the good of us all.

At least 12 Palestinians were killed and others injured in Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Sunday, in a fresh violation of the Oct. 10 ceasefire agreement, the Civil Defense said.

Tell Minister Anand to Close the US Loophole! Canada is quietly arming Israel — and fueling genocide. Email your MP and demand they support MP Kwan’s private members’ bill to shut down the U.S. loophole that lets Canadian weapons end up in Israel...

Fellow Canadians, this one's for you! We need to get louder about an upcoming vote & make sure this important bill passes! For Palestine, for one more step towards peace.

No more loopholes!

I would never argue all self-publishing is bad, but I realized years ago that Amazon designed KDP for exactly this purpose: to incentivize people to adopt new tech to churn out more slop titles in a clear attack on the publishing industry with little regard for readers or even the writers themselves

Ottawa gives Canada Post a $1.01-billion loan The federal government says it is making more than $1 billion available to Canada Post in the form of a repayable loan to help the Crown corporation.

The government is giving a loan to a Crown corporation that should just be a public service that we pay for because it provides an essential task that Canadians depend on.

We don’t provide loans to the health care system or schools; we just pay for them.

All 6 Palestine Action activists in the Elbit Systems break-in have been found not guilty on all charges. This action was one of the main 'reasons' the govt. proscribed PA as a terrorist organisation. Nearly 3000 people have been arrested for showing support. There must be pardons and compensation.

Your source site seems a little flat. Who wrote that article? A closer look at the site: "mike" and "Mo." Where are they getting their information? There's no "about us" or contact info, on the site, but you can login. Trying to battle misinformation, but you have to sign up for the whole story?

YouTube video by Qasim Rashid Israel Admits 70k Palestinians Killed

The Israeli gov has finally admitted that the data from the Gaza Health Ministry on the number of Palestinians killed is in fact accurate.

I continue to be astounded by the shamelessness of genocide deniers. And I fear that the actual number of Palestinians killed is far greater.

i want this for canada too, and it will only come through dependable public funding of journalism along the lines that exist in some european (particularly nordic) countries.

we need to stop letting conservatives and old-guard figures who arose in a different era try to discredit public funding.

Strongly worded letters? Petition? Sit in? Hunger strike?

Terr0r1sm is what white colonialists say when the natives resist.....

Stealing is their right. And the only perceived prerogative of the natives is to submit & die.....

Well guess what? They wont....

It is unacceptable for Canada to promote "dialogue" with Israel on AI, which uses it for the surveillance and mass-killing of Palestinians. Send an email to Minister Evan Solomon to tell him that we don’t need Israel’s genocidal AI: www.cjpme.org/no_israeli_ai

Tell Minister Solomon: We Don’t Need Israel’s Genocidal AI

Canada to promote “dialogue” with Israel on AI? The Israeli military uses Israeli AI & tech to surveil & target Palestinians, and to develop kill lists & facilitate its genocide in Gaza.

I saw The Voice of Hind Rajab today. There was silence as the credits started to roll. We all sat and let it wash over us, through us. I left more resolved than ever to be a voice for justice & peace. My heart aches for this world.

It's a beautiful film. Rest in peace, sweet Hanood.

Palestinians do not die of natural causes

Awful journalism from Isreali client media @cnn.com who STILL REFUSE to NAME THE CULPRIT

A picture of the cover of The Master & Margarita, by Mikhail Bulgakov, translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky - the 50th anniversary edition. The design of the front cover is halved by the title and author name boldly crossing the cover diagonally from the bottom left to the top right, in a vintage theatre-feeling font, perhaps suggesting a marquee. On the top portion of the cover, behind the title blocks, we see the a portion of a black cat's face: one yellow eye peering out, against a light blue background, and surrounded by smoke from the lit cigarette the cat appears to be smoking. The bottom portion of cover, under the title blocks is part of a woman's face and neck. She has rich red lips, black hair that curls around her face, we see an ornate earring theough her hair - a drop of pearls and red stones shaped like teardrops. There is a single tear falling down her cheek. The cover behind her is a golden yellow.

The moment I picked this one up I was swept away into a crazed, mystical, darkly curious world. Feels multi-dimensional and defiant. I'm really enjoying it!

Ahhh! I love that show, I binged it on Gem a few months ago. They absolutely stole my heart.

Deep reading can boost your critical thinking and help you resist misinformation – here’s how to build the skill Reading comprehension scores are tanking, and fewer Americans are picking up books. But practicing deep reading can help you process content more carefully and keep you from falling for…

Americans check their phones over 140 times daily. And reading comprehension scores are declining.

Pausing for just a few seconds to critically evaluate information can counteract the mental habits that make us susceptible to misinformation, according to a literacy expert. buff.ly/XMSkj6d
