Dr. Teóríubangsi 🇵🇸✌️

Way too many people still think that whatever happens to people as a result of American imperialism abroad *cough Palestine Sudan Congo cough* is acceptable, fine even, not our problem, as long as the lesser evil wins in the United States.

And it's not. I'm sorry. It's just not.

Posts about people returning to their homes are designed to elicit a sense of conclusion, of normality, that simply does not exist when Israel dropped the equivalent of multiple nuclear weapons on an area the size of Seattle.

I think what's bothering me about all these statements I'm seeing from politicians that are variations of "Israeli hostages and Palestinians are returning to their homes, yay" is that Israelis are returning to their homes and Palestinians are returning to uninhabitable post apocalyptic rubble.

The homes Israeli hostages return to VS the homes Gazans return to

The is no going back to “normal” for them. They are now living in a rubble ridden hellscape while the western world moves on, pretending it didn’t fund and approve this.

Under the most conservative estimates, according to NPR, Israel has killed a Palestinian every fifteen minutes this year.

EVERY. FIFTEEN. MINUTES.

Whereas Harris told MSNBC that she believes whether or not Israel has committed genocide is a fair and honest question to ask, Cory Booker explicitly said to the "I've Had it" podcast that he thinks addressing the question of whether Netanyahu has committed crimes would undermine resolving conflict.

From the other place. No peace without justice.

Do you know what chemical contaminants can be found in the most heavily bombed place in human history? Me neither. I don't think anyone fully knows because nothing has ever been done like this before. It is unprecedented environmental catastrophe.

An easel sign reads, “UCLA ATTENTION No events are permitted in this area today. Per Policy 852, this location is NOT designated for public expression activities. Individuals participating in an event or a public expression activity in this area are subject to discipline and/or arrest. Scan for policy information.”

Found this just incredibly depressing, more than anything.

American universities have lost the plot

damn. hoping it at least signifies something

My Palestinian friend who is visiting me was so overjoyed at the ceasefire. Then learned that her friend in Gaza had died to the genocide and lack of healthcare. The family doesn't know where the children are. None of this is over until Israel can't harm a single Palestinian.

London's £34bn pension fund complicit in Israeli genocide, report says A report by Shake the CIV says the London Collective Investment Vehicle has £7bn invested in companies "enabling Israel’s human rights abuses"

London's £34bn pension fund complicit in Israeli genocide, report says

For context, several thousand US military personnel have rotated through Israel during this genocide. Whether THAAD battery personnel or working on the JLOTS (the "pier") or helping build out Israeli Air Force bases, our boys have been involved in the day to day operation of the genocide machine

Sandra Newman (@sannewman) on twitter: THE SEVEN SECRETS OF HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE 1. Private school 2. Legacy Ivy admission 3. Nepotism hire 4. Seed capital from family 5. Club memberships 6. Personal assistant, nanny, ghost writer 7. Journalists who ask, "What's your secret?" and uncritically publish the answer

This plan is a farce, intended to give Israel everything it wants quickly and then manufacture reasons to never give Palestinians anything.

We Said “We Will Block Everything” and We Did: Inside Italy’s Strike for Gaza Following a 24-hour general strike on September 22, the country is now gearing up for a national protest on October 4.

The general strike spanned more than 80 cities, blocking ports, highways, train stations, secondary schools, metro stations, universities, shops, hospitals, and public administration offices.

A post on X by Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan ) expresses frustration, asking how anyone can read a definition of fascism and not be alarmed, emphasizing that it is happening now. The post includes a quote from Cody Johnston (@drmistercody ) from one day ago, defining fascism as a form of political behavior marked by an obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood, and compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity. The definition describes a mass-based party of nationalist militants working with traditional elites, abandoning democratic liberties, and pursuing redemptive violence for internal cleansing and external expansion without ethical or legal restraints.

Oh yes, this is clearly now.

The ADL doesn’t speak for New York Jews, says Zohran Mamdani Zohran Mamdani, NYC mayor hopeful, said the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt doesn’t represent the concerns of New York City Jews.

Mamdani: The ADL doesn’t speak for New York Jews

in interview with @mehdirhasan.bsky.social, Mamdani panned ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt, who said the Democratic nominee for mayor has failed to meet with or address concerns of most Jewish New Yorkers.

Recognizing Palestine While Ignoring Palestinians Several Western countries have announced they will recognize Palestine, without considering what Palestinians want.

I write on why palestinian statehood recognition schemes are a trap

“At no point has any international actor considered what the Palestinian people want or even what they would accept. This is not merely a moral question, but a strategic one, for without public support, solutions will go nowhere.”

In Gaza, families are running from death to more death Under Israeli expulsion orders, Palestinians face only impossible choices - remain under bombardment and risk annihilation, or flee south into displacement and sniper fire

Fairly close photo of a Caterpillar D9 bulldozer used by the IDF to destroy roads, vehicles and buildings. Bulldozer drives from left to right and upwards at a significant angle, pushing debris from a collapsing building. Multiple other damaged and destroyed multistory concrete buildings are in the background. A large cloud of dust fills the center foreground. Below the image is the Caterpillar company logo updated to read "CATERPILLAGE" as commentary on its support of genocide in Palestine. Black block text on white background with a short wide yellow-gold triangle on the baseline stretching across the letters "CAT" with the point reaching halfway up the letter A. A trickle of blood runs down the yellow triangle and pools below it. Caterpillar supplies bulldozers to Israel which are used by the Israeli government and army to destroy Palestinian homes buildings and other property in its ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza and the West Bank (and Lebanon and Syria). Boycott Caterpillar to support Palestine. BDSmovement.net
