SCOOP: Palantir Defends Work With ICE to Staff Following Killing of Alex Pretti WIRED obtained Slack conversations + an updated internal Palantir wiki defending the company's work for ICE to outraged workers. More here: www.wired.com/story/palant...

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Our investigation, in partnership with Lighthouse Reports, identified 110 killings of former Afghan National Defense and Security Forces troops since 2023.

🧵What’s the biggest lie the surveillance industry tells? That they only sell to legal clients. That there are red lines. But what do these companies say when they think nobody is watching? We went undercover to find out

The surveillance empire that tracked world leaders, a Vatican enemy, and maybe you www.motherjones.com/politics/202... A stunning investigation by @lighthousereports.com of what I call "despotism as a service"👇

Boris parte per #Gaza con la Sumud Flotilla. A motivarlo, l'aver assistito all'assedio di #Sarajevo e la sua grande frustrazione oggi, come professionista del mondo umanitario e cittadino italo-bosniaco, nel non poter portare aiuti a Gaza. Una riflessione sul diritto umanitario buff.ly/uBFWKKB

On the show this week: • In a presidency rife with scandals, the Epstein crisis is in a class of its own • New York Times finally uses the term 'genocide' to describe Gaza • The crackdown on pro-Palestinian speech in Germany ▶️ youtu.be/AWp0DgSuP1I

Many held there are opponents of the repressive regime. Who is alive now? Who was killed? Were they just collateral damage?

Everyone must respect international law except western powers, Israel, friends of western powers when they're doing it on behalf of the west, but everyone must respect international law.

It is grossly hypocritical and extremely dangerous that two nuclear-armed states ganged up on a country without nuclear weapons just because it may possibly build one at some unknown point in the vague future. #iran #usa #america #Israel

It's okay to lose people over genocide.

What the west is doing is causing people who don't like the Iranian regime to sympathize a lot more with Iran.

So much truth in this comedy.

There is no contradiction in the position that the Iranian regime is horrible to its people and that Iran should not be be bombed by western powers.

there are no shelters in Iran

Every time Israel violates international law and commits war crimes, the west says that Israel has a right to defend itself. This has become so lame, but it's a giant fuck you to any kind of equality among people, this is western supremacism.

The lesson is that Israel and the West can bomb whoever the fuck they want and you'll be a villain if you don't justify murder and genocide.

It's a bit like kidnappers taking hostages from a highway, bringing them back to a house they've stolen then claiming that they're trespassing, wanting them to sign a confession they were trying to break in before releasing them.

Israel still holds several members of the Freedom Flotilla hostage, including #EU MP Rima Hassan, Dutch captain Mark van Rennes, French journalist Yanis Mhamdi, French engineer Pascal Maurieras and Brazilian Thiago Avila

The Sisi regime in Egypt is so heartless that it refuses to reunite a political prisoner, Alaa Abd El Fattah, with his heart-broken mother, Laila Soueif, both on hunger strike It is so cruel that it keeps tens of thousands of prisoners of conscience apart from their grieving families and loved ones

Germany is sliding into fascism. I know people have debated this extensively, but right now all parties around Palestine are effectively one party.. supporting or denying genocide.

On-point analysis by @weskandar.bsky.social of recent statements by German politicians on the genocide in #Gaza. "They don't want to stop it. They just want to make sure that when it happens, they can claim they’ve always been against it." www.instagram.com/reels/DKJdNd...

On Germany's fascism www.theleftberlin.com/is-this-fasc...

Growing reports show that Israel has been fomenting armed gangs to loot food supplies in Gaza and sow chaos — and it's killing those who attempt to stop it. But this strategy isn't new: Israel has waged a war on Gaza's civil government from the start.

RSF Germany has issued a scandalous report.. weskandar.substack.com/p/rsf-german...

Il vero piano del governo Netanyahu non è salvare gli ostaggi, ma espellere i palestinesi da Gaza

Germany is sliding into fascism very quickly, but people won't wake up till they're looking at the equivalent of invading Poland.

Feels weird to know that my pool of potential friends for the future has just shrunk immensely. Those who have not opposed the genocide till this day can never become real friends.

At @journalismfestival.com there were extraordinary seminars but also a commemoration of the journalists murdered in #Gaza, every conversation around journalism cannot escape the implication of the ongoing genocide @ariannaciccone.bsky.social @weskandar.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LA3...

If you want to understand how and why RT does propaganda, you need not look further than BBC and often NY Times to understand that it's not such a remote concept. I've picked two highly revered publications only to show the extremity and simplicity of propagating lies and propaganda.

Germany suspects BDS to be an extremist secular movement this way: "the first of three central demands is an end to the occupation of “all Arab land”, which is to be understood here as a demand for an end to Israel's state existence" This means Germany recognizes Israel's land as all Arab land.

Is @amnesty-de.bsky.social going to release any statement about the banning of Arabic from demonstrations in Berlin? Or is racism being accepted by them?
