The RSF is backed by the UAE and is still committing genocide in Sudan, including through mass executions

Shireen Abue Akieh was a U.S. citizen murdered by the IDF during the Biden years because she was a journalist documenting Israeli crimes. I think not enough Americans understand that if you or your family is killed or wrongly arrested by Israel, your own government will help Israel, not you.

sometimes you'll be like: hello maybe don't say Jews are a rootless people who don't belong anywhere, that's a very old antisemitic trope

& the other person goes: sorry if my being anti-genocide offends you

& you're like: it doesn't, just don't say this specific thing abt Jews

& they block you

A screenshot of a post on X that reads: 

Cuomo, talking to conservative radio host Sid Rosenberg this morning:

"God forbid, another 9/11—can you imagine Mamdani in the seat?" Cuomo asks.

"He'd be cheering," Rosenberg says.

Cuomo paused and chuckled before saying: "That's another problem."

16-year-old Palestinian-American Mohammad Zaher Taysir Ibrahim, detained by Israel since February, has described to his lawyer with Defense for Children International–Palestine the grim, inhumane conditions inside Ofer prison where he is being held. 

He said dozens of children are packed into overcrowded rooms, with some forced to sleep on thin floor mattresses. There is no heat or ventilation — only two blankets per child and a single Quran in each cell. Meals are starvation-level: three small pieces of bread and a spoonful of labneh for breakfast, half a cup of dry rice and one sausage for lunch, and often no dinner. Fruit is almost never provided. Prisoners are allowed outside only 40 minutes a day, when they must also shower, though six showers serve dozens of boys. The cells reek from lack of sanitation. Ibrahim has lost weight and developed scabies amid the overcrowding, cold, and neglect.

DCIP says Israel remains the only country that systematically prosecutes children in military courts, charging Ibrahim with stone-throwing — a crime that carries up to 20 years. Despite his U.S. citizenship and family appeals to Congress, Israel continues to hold him.

I mean, the Gospels were specifically written in the context of early Christians attempting to distance themselves from proto-Judaism, and using Pharisees (a real, actual people, not a metaphor) as scapegoats to avoid persecution from the Roman empire.

‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape.

A few shocking but not surprising things to me about the extremism of the Republican Party. The first is that it is rarely described as such in much of the media. Compare with the number of articles about Democrats supposedly moving out of the mainstream.....

After the anticipated and hoped for prisoners/hostage exchange, there will remain in Israeli prisons thousands more Palestinians than there had been there on 6th October 2023.

Make no mistake. Those who spearheaded the Gaza genocide will try to relaunch it in a more ruthless manner, at the earliest opportunity.
They will fail only if there will be an alternative vision, one of recognition, life and equality for everyone.

We should have required alt text for posts that don't have images but DO have vague, extremely dramatic posts about an ongoing sporting event. when you post "its over its all over" i need to be able to click a little button and see that you're talking about a quarterback named Mac Whimple

People use "anti-Zionism" to mean everything from "Every Jew needs to go back to Poland" to "One binational state with protections for both communities," which is why I don't find blanket statements of either "Anti-Zionism is antisemitism" or "anti-Zionism is not antisemitism" particularly helpful.

I'll say it again. Our horror at the Gaza genocide and at the atrocity in Manchester comes in both cases from the same, inherent part of our shared humanity. We need to assert that shared humanity in the face of both these evils as loudly as possible, and in as many practical ways as we can.

Two takes we can really do without:
1. Blaming the attack on pro-Palestine marches.
2. Highlighting pro-Israel positions expressed by/at the synagogue to justify the attack.
Irresponsible, dangerous and vile.

Jews should not have been attacked in our places of worship on our holidays. Muslims should not collectively be blamed for it and face crackdowns on their civil liberties for it.

While AIPAC has occasionally been used as a dog-whistle term for Jews, I *think* current events would suggest that you update your priors when people talk about it, yes?

Israeli Defense Minister Katz: "Those who remain in Gaza City will be terrorists and terror supporters."

In other words, Israel declares its intention to exterminate everyone in Gaza City who could not move south.

That is what calling everyone 'terrorists and terror supporters' means.

For me I think the most obscure one is the no-anointing one. I always feel bad for anyone who tries to hug me after I've led a heavy Musaf service in my kittel over my regular clothes, meaning I'm sweaty AND haven't bathed AND am not wearing deodorant.
