"Israel expects us to feel grateful for obtaining our basic rights to life and liberty — as if they were favors, not ordinary human rights."

“It's really quite repulsive that Palestinians have had to negotiate an end to their genocide,” says Palestinian human rights attorney Diana Buttu.

As the October 7 anniversary approaches, a reflection on that day and it's immediate aftermath

This is two female doctors in Gaza who are getting aid to people who desperately need it. If you are looking for somewhere to donate to help, this is a good place.

If only more journalists could be like him.

He gets it. apple.news/AHBmSyb7XSJW...

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social VAN HOLLEN. Yes, we know who he is, and we are listening to what he is saying. He’s fighting for us and you are not.

I’m so tired of the Atlantic’s bad takes. Harris did not campaign on a progressive platform. She campaigned with Dick and Liz Cheney, for goodness sake! This is centrist garbage trying to paint progressives as the problem. apple.news/AoI960ZLxRhW...

What was that about this being a defensive war?

Please read, please share.

I’m no longer praying for peace. I’m praying for a miracle. And I’ll work my ass off in the meantime.

@secmarcorubio.bsky.social How do you sleep at night being such a pawn for evil? Coward. You know it’s true.

How come no one is talking about how Trump just murdered 11 people??

But what if it was a boat full of migrants?

What can you do to stop the carnage in Gaza? Call your representative in congress and urge them to sign on to the #BlockTheBombs act. When your children and grandchildren ask what you did while your country aided and abetted a genocide, you can tell them you did this. It’s the least you can do.

My activism for Palestine is far more than a political issue, it is an extension of my spirituality. open.substack.com/pub/sofner/p...

I’ve been to Battir. This is so sad. Palestine is being colonized before our eyes and no one is stopping it. There will be nothing left but ghettos. www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/8/...

Israel is about to annex the West Bank. When they do, Palestinians will resist. And they will be labeled as terrorists. mondoweiss.net/2025/09/the-...

Hamas has agreed to a deal to release all the remaining hostages. Three weeks ago. Israel has ignored it and continues to bomb and starve Gaza. What the news doesn’t tell us.

God have mercy on us

Let Gaza live, O God. Let Gaza live.

How can you deter the Trump administration's immigrant deportation machine when it pops up in your community? Follow these steps.

More than 50 ships are heading to Gaza to challenge Israel’s illegal blockade and deliver urgent humanitarian aid.

@booker.senate.gov 50% of Americans now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. How long will you continue to accept blood money??

@kenmartin.bsky.social you really missed the mark. Your attempt to pay lip service to people who actually want an end to genocide was laughable. You’ve lost this former democrat for good.

It always feels hopeless until the moment when it is not. It's always impossible, a lost cause, until it isn't. We must keep pushing forward towards that moment. sofner.substack.com/p/pushing-to...

Gaza City is about to be annihilated and no one is talking about it. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Remember when Biden signed off on a budget that cut funding for UNWRA? I do. We are the enablers of the current starvation. We, the liberals, the supposed good guys. Trump is not the only villain.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social I really wanted to believe you were authentic. You have revealed your true character. #freepalestine

Almost 19,000 children. How????? How is this still happening???

GAZA CITY www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

I really really wish that all the so called “progressives” who are now speaking out about Gaza would have done so when Biden was president. That was our chance to stop this. Too little. Too late. You put politics over people. Money over morality. I won’t forget.

@marcorubio.bsky.social there is a special place in hell for people who deny medical care to injured children.

@statedept.govmirrors.com there is a special place in hell for people who prevent injured children from obtaining medical treatment.

@secrubio.govpeeps.us there is a special place in hell for people who prevent injured children from obtaining medical treatment. A place is being prepared for you.

As we sat there listening to Fahkri’s story, we were devasted by the lack of dignity afforded Palestinians in these kinds of situations. As another person we spoke with explained, it’s not just the home that gets demolished, but the very dignity of the family.

This is a US soldier describing what happened. Amir walked 12 kilometers for food. Got scraps and was so grateful. Then the Israeli soldiers shot him. If we are not outraged then we are not paying attention. We must stop this genocide. Let children live. Let Gaza live. Repost: @onepathnetwork

Palestinian activist and participant in the Oscar-winning film, No Other Land, Odeh Hadalin was shot in the chest and killed by an Israeli settler in the Occupied West Bank. The shooter, Yinon Levi, has been under sanctions by both the EU and the US.

The terror began immediately. Salvadoran guards beat them with their fists, boots and batons, shot them with rubber pellets, and forced them to lick other men's backs. What happened when we sent 230+ Venezuelans to a prison known for human rights abuses. www.propublica.org/article/vene...

Israelis are now calling it a genocide. Can we stop pretending now that it's anything else??? www.btselem.org/sites/defaul...
