From an essay coming later this week by the extraordinary Alaa Alqaisi.
"And I say this now, from the depths of grief and exhaustion: O God, we didn’t just knock on the walls of the tank. We did far more than that. We waved the torn limbs of our children like desperate flags."
the basics: fascism thrives on fear. they want you to be silent, to self-censor, to do less. you will not recover whatever ground you concede. the moment calls for caution, not hysteria. courage, not cowardice. if the objective is fear, be unafraid. dissent.

Israel is the most advanced fascist nation w/in the emerging fascist international.

This is a heart shattering video from a morgue in Khan Younis after Israel targeted a group of people who were either waiting for food trucks or securing the movement of the trucks to warehouses.
In the video, a mother is looking for the body of her son, hoping he’s not among the…
A new massacre. Oh my God.
11 people from Habbash and Louh family got killed in an air strike two hours ago. These news is slow to get out. But I will never atop reporting.

armchair leftist academics intellectualizing a genocide (while providing no material support to those impacted) will never absolve them of their complicity no matter how many accolades they receive

from Tufts SJP:
In an act rooted in the interests of profit over morals, the administration of Tufts University has placed its SJP chapter under suspension for 2 whole years.
Apparently calling an obvious genocide what it is "cheapens antisemitism" but calling some football hooligans losing a fight THEY STARTED a fucking "pogrom" is measured and serious. Absolutely absurd, the entire western journalistic class deserves to lose their jobs.
