To defend Israel’s actions, you have to tell me how you are okay with collective punishment, mass starvation, massacring journalists, demolishing all medical facilities, killing ppl when they come to get the food you are distributing (with no water btw); denying oxygen and anesthesia to patients :

Ahlam, located in the south of the enclave, is holding on “to testify” as long as she can. “Every time I leave the tent to cover an event, do an interview or document a story, I don’t know if I’ll come back alive.” Her biggest issue, she confirms, is the lack of food and water. We are watching their situation get worse. They’re young but their strength is leaving them. Most are no longer physically able to get around the enclave to do their work. Their heartbreaking cries for help are now daily. For the past few days, we have only received very brief messages from them, when they have the strength to send any. Their courage, considered heroic by the rest of the world, is now their only hope of survival. We may hear about their deaths at any moment, and this is unbearable. This Sunday, Bashar wrote: “For the first time, I feel defeated.” Later that day, he said he would thank us “for explaining that we live day to day between death and hunger.” “I wish President Macron would help me get out of this hell.” Ahlam is still holding on. “I try to keep exercising my profession, to speak for the voiceless, to document the truth despite all the attempts to silence it. Here, resistance isn’t a choice: it’s a necessity.” Since AFP was founded in 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, some have been injured, others taken prisoner. But none of us remember witnessing colleagues die of hunger". — The outgoing Editorial Committee (Société de Journalistes, SDJ) of the AFP

Which is imminent.

A social media post from Mike Flynn, reading: General Mike Flynn verified checkmark icon @GenFlynn @realDonaldTrump this is why I said the EPSTEIN AFFAIR is not going away anytime soon. Get ahead of this. We want to support every bit of your fight to save America, none more than me. CHILDREN WILL NOT BE ABUSED BY ANYONE. No category nor any class of people should ever get away with abusing CHILDREN. Enough is enough. ACCOUNTABILITY is coming either here on earth or at the Gates of Hell, which is where I will be waiting for those who abuse a child.

The Republicans can't let go of the Epstein conspiracy because they themselves are implicated in horrific mass child abuse carried out by ICE. They're desperate to tell themselves that others are the ones who abuse children.

Conspiracy theories—a distraction from the horrors everyone already knows.

happy birthday bisexuals!!!!!

Legal bid against Herald and Age in Lattouf case fails The Federal Court heard a bid by a group of pro-Israel lobbyists to have The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age punished for contempt of court.

The Lawyers for Israel's contempt case against media outlets has failed. The lobbyists who campaigned for ABC to illegally sack me have been ordered to pay half of The Herald and Age's legal costs. Today Justice Rangiah said they had "no reasonable basis" or "case".
