Iran has a great many Mandelas and Walesas. Most of them are in a prison that Israel bombed back in July.

Loved what she has to say. Akinola Davies Jr is the filmmaker who was censored for saying "Free Palestine". Shame on BAFTA and the BBC

+ in historically Palestinian ("mixed") cities, Arabs are shunned from, and harassed at bomb shelters.

This picture was taken by my dad this morning, outside a bomb shelter in Ramleh. The sign reads "Gaza is ours, forever!".

Via the NYT: Israel's state comptroller reported last year that, as of early 2025, "only 37 of the 11,775 public shelters are in Arab municipalities, and eight of those are not fit for use." www.nytimes.com/2026/02/28/w...

Two cities in Israel, bomb shelter comparison

By the way when you see reports about how Israelis are going to bomb shelters, you should keep in mind that the vast majority of Palestinian *citizens* of Israel (in the 1948 territories, not the oPT) do not have a single bomb shelter nearby due to the apartheid system Israel has implemented.

Israel has closed all the crossings into Gaza and reimposed total siege.

"While there was an order to raze villages, in some cases that was not enough. For example, when it came to Arab a-Zabah, a Bedouin community in the Lower Galilee, not a soul or a trace was to remain. "Every Arab among the Zabahim is to be killed," the order stated."

the political evolution of ta-nehisi coates and the way the media grew more and more terrified of what he had to say pretty much directly follows this track

This is why raising awareness is always important and never a waste of time.

sympathizing is cool. now it’s time to also take responsibility for america’s part and hold those responsible fully accountable

Palestinian liberation is now one of the most popular causes in the Democratic party and yet 75% of its members in Congress are, in some form, in the way of it

For the first time in Gallup history —

Ages 35-54: Palestinians +18

United Nations-backed experts said last week that the R.S.F. campaign bore the “hallmarks of genocide.”

In recent months, the Emirates has faced growing international criticism as the R.S.F. has been accused of committing massacres and other grave human rights violations, particularly around the city of El Fasher in Darfur.

How a Call From Trump Ignited a Bitter Feud Between Two U.S. Allies

The New York Times confirms what many people have speculated— Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman asked Donald Trump to sanction the UAE for its support of the RSF in Sudan.

Donald Trump, for his part, instead simply turned around and called Mohammed bin Zayed and told him about what MBS asked.
