so Israeli of us

"In southern #Gaza, a 13-year-old child and a young woman were also killed by #Israeli gunfire in separate areas of Khan Yunis... ...3 journalists were killed in an Israeli strike on a car in the city of al-Zahra in central Gaza on Wednesday afternoon." english.palinfo.com/news/2026/01... #News

It is not only bizarre, but a moral outrage, to see European colonial powers line up to "defend" Greenland, a colony they should have nothing to do with and where no one has yet been hurt , while they have stood by and let Palestinians be slaughtered. Repeatedly. Cruelly. On camera.

I've been thinking about this a lot, for months: Gaza was a breaking point between verifiable reality and liberal governance. "AI" sparks fears ppl will believe things that aren't true, but Gaza SHOWED things that WERE true—& western governments, universities & news outlets pretened they were not.

Al Jazeera is reporting that a Palestinian baby, Mohammed Abu Harbid, froze to death as torrential rains and freezing winds worsened the dire humanitarian situation faced by displaced families across the Gaza Strip. Since last November, four Palestinian children have frozen to death.

"Deaths from hypothermia [..] due to Israel's defiance of its obligations to allow in caravans and shelter materials." "A one-week old infant named Mahmoud Al-Aqra died." "A one-year old baby, also in Deir al-Balah, died." #Gaza #WestBank #Palestine #Israel #Aid #Healthcare #Housing #Genocide

Aysha Ayesh Al-Agha, a 27-day-old baby, died this morning from extreme cold in Khan Younis, southern Gaza.

Israel is banning MSF, UNRWA and 36 other aid organizations from Gaza and rest of State of Palestine. "Not long ago, Al Rantisi Children’s Hospital was filled with rubble. Today, its emergency department is treating more than 300 children every day." www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kAE...

Any country that agrees to pay anything (let alone $1 billion) to join the Board of Peace is endorsing plans to replace the UN with a much more problematic replacement and is placing a final dagger into the post-WW2 order. No matter how you feel about that order today, this needs saying.

"In the northern Gaza Strip, Israeli forces shot and killed 16‑year‑old Mohammad Raed al‑Barawi in Beit Lahia, while a 10‑year‑old girl died after an Israeli drone strike in the same area."

BREAKING: A Palestinian infant has died due to the severe cold gripping Gaza, as a shortage of aid caused by Israel’s restrictions and a lack of heating continue to worsen living conditions. 🔴 Follow our LIVE updates: aje.io/llxy98

Israeli forces have also killed 463 Palestinians in Gaza since the ceasefire

The "children as human shields" rationalization deployed for decades against Palestinians now being turned on Americans.

Either Palestine becomes free, or every place gradually becomes Gaza.

9 years ago, on January 14th 2017, 17-year-old Ahmad Hassan Shubeir from occupied Palestine's besieged Gaza Strip died from a congenital heart defect after Israel denied him a permit to leave Gaza Strip for treatment because he and his mother refused to become collaborators.

babies are STILL DYING OF EXPOSURE in Gaza. GENOCIDE. THE CRIME OF CRIMES. There is still nothing that is happening in the states that is worse than the scale and cruelty of what we sponsor in Palestine. This new holocaust is grinding on and these babies are dying.

"The final draft of a bill that would entrench the death penalty as a tool of Israeli state violence against Palestinian prisoners has been published... formalising executions under a legal framework that applies exclusively to Palestinians & not to Jewish Israelis." www.newarab.com/news/israel-...

Palestine is not a single issue. If a politician supports the use of overwhelming violence against a civilian population abroad, they’re telling you what they think is acceptable to use against you at home.

just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday

Apartheid Israel has murdered at least 14 people in Gaza today, 5 of them children. It is bombing Gaza right now. At least 425 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks in the so-called ceasefire. War crimes committed with total impunity including from our government. #GazaGenocide

'Ben Hania succeeded in the task that Hamada entrusted her with, to make her daughter unforgettable. As Ben Hania puts it: “To honour her voice and make it echo.” Hind’s insistent cries for someone, anyone, to “come to get me” can never now be silenced.' www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ja...

Rahaf is 13 years old. Both her parents are dead - Israel murdered her dad and her mum died of cancer (its worth remembering Israel demolished the only dedicated cancer hospital in Gaza). So now Rahaf is responsible for bringing up her younger brother & sisters.

A Palestinian in Gaza on Instagram said that Gaza is facing an unprecedented mental health crisis, especially in children.

As others have observed, this whole horrifying field execution is exactly the style of Israeli military murders of Palestinians in the West Bank for decades; and now so much worse during the genocide in Gaza.

According to the European Union, this is a ceasefire. Israel can bomb and kill, but ceasefire is in effect. Until an Israeli dies. No amount of Palestinian deaths can apparently break the ceasefire, nor blocking of aid, if we believe the Union's leadership. bsky.app/profile/aali...

"Gaza is being silenced, as the Israeli occupation keeps international media out and restricts journalists to military control; independent reporting remains impossible. With dozens of violations documented against journalists, barring the press ensures war crimes go unseen and unaccountable."

#Gaza PhD scholar is now baker to feed family, others amid Israel’s war www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/... This is what a hero looks like--what a life lived shows a hero to be.

Palestinian journalists, like Wael Al-Dahdouh, put their lives on the line to record & report Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza. Over 260 media professionals have been killed in occupied Gaza since Oct 2023. The targeting of journalists is a war crime, and each death must be investigated as such.

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.   ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

Infants are dying from hypothermia in Gaza. Let that sink in. This is the inhumane denial of shelter and warmth. The world’s silence is complicity.
