The situation in #Gaza is complex, but the ongoing subjugation of the #Palestinian people for decades has been largely ignored by the UK and US media.
Back in the noughties I worked with architectural and geography researchers examining the physical situation on the ground there and in the West Bank.
Even then it was clear that politicians said one thing, but the reality on the ground with Israeli settlements, infrastructure and access to water was very different.
American Jews really prefer Jewish Foyer not Jewish Lobby. Occasionally, Jewish Vestibule.
"An outspoken critic of #Israel who has said that the #US is “subjugated by the #Jewish lobby” was reappointed as the #UnitedNations’ Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Occupied #Palestinian Territories.
#FrancescaAlbanese will continue until 2028 after she was confirmed during a United Nations #HumanRights Council (UNHRC) session in Geneva on Friday."

A little boy touches his father's hand for a last goodbye. He is one of almost 40,000 #Palestinian children who lost a parent or both parents during the 534 days of #genocide in #Gaza.
If I ever set foot in Israel or Palestine, it will be to avenge the genocide occurring against the Palestinian people. You can put that in your AI-powered panopticon pipe and smoke it.
Israel killed 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers one by one, says UN
The decision by US Dist Judge Michael Farbiarz in Newark, NJ, means any appeals in the #Palestinian #activist's case will be heard by the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, which has a 6-6 split between active judges appointed by Republican & Democratic presidents, instead of the #5thCircuit, the country's most #conservative appeals court.

Why Hamas resists all foreign demands for surrender

Egyptian fears now are that the #UAE is trying to carry out large-scale plans to blow up the Gaza Strip from within by stimulating protests against Hamas and creating confrontations between the people and the resistance. It even amounted to Emirati funding through Israel for any Gazan who wants to demonstrate against Hamas.”
...Surrender would not prevent mass displacement, but would accelerate it. The collapse of #Gaza would send shockwaves through the occupied #WestBank, East #Jerusalem, and the 1948 territories, heralding the final act of the #Palestinian cause.
Hamas has resolved to continue the fight regardless of the cost. “If we are to be eliminated,” one source tells The Cradle, “let it be in an honorable battle, not in exile.” They cite the Sabra and Shatila refugee camp massacres as a grim lesson: once the Palestine Liberation Organization (#PLO) left Lebanon, the residents of the defenseless camps were butchered. The difference now is that #Hamas is on its own land, among its own people.

Improvised graveyards are everywhere because everyone in Gaza has lost family members during the #genocide.

"In the world of #Palestinian activism, the plight of autistic people is often overlooked...Speaking about the plight of our #autistic friends and family members can loosen the clutches ever so slightly. In a world where Palestinians are constantly and aggressively silenced, these #voices [also] need to be heard."

"According to the UN humanitarian affairs office (Ocha), the Palestinian Red Crescent (PRCS) and civil defence workers were on a mission to rescue colleagues who had been shot at earlier in the day, when their clearly marked vehicles came under heavy Israeli fire in Rafah city’s Tel al-Sultan district. A Red Crescent official in Gaza said that there was evidence of at least one person being detained and killed, as the body of one of the dead had been found with his hands tied."

“Months of them hiding their faces went down the drain!” a fledgling #technology company boasted in a social media post, claiming its #FacialRecognition tool had identified the woman despite the coverings.
She was anything but a lone target. The same software was also used to review images taken during months of pro-#Palestinian marches at #US #colleges.

More than 18000 #Palestinian children were murdered during the genocide - one of them was this little girl Reem Al Lolo (4) who was killed in November 2023 during #Israeli attacks on Gaza. The remains of her body are still under the rubble.

The last written words of Omar Al Jamasi, a teenager #MurderedbyIsrael ; the letter was found in the rubble of his family's destroyed home.
#RümeysaÖztürk's attorneys include in their filing that her arrest & detention — without any notice — is not a necessary or usual part of #visa revocation but an experience "designed to #silence her, #punish her for her #speech, & ensure that other #students will be chilled from expressing pro-#Palestinian viewpoints."
