Spain is forcing an uncomfortable test of European law itself: whether it is something that governs state behavior, or something that states selectively cite without consequence. 🔗 ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/spain-beco...

Massie may have lost his seat, but the questions he raised are no longer confined to the margins. And once a political taboo is broken in public, money can punish the messenger, but it cannot force the country to unknow what it has already seen. substacktools.com/sharex/cmGIi...

What makes this moment historically significant is not simply the scale of protest, but what it reveals about the collapsing legitimacy of institutional neutrality inside the global art world. READ MY LATEST BELOW 👇

Nearly 500 days after math teacher Jason Agan was fired for sexually harassing students at one California school, the state decided to suspend his license for just seven days, two of which fell on a weekend. He’s still teaching. With @kqednews.kqed.org

Francesca is not just a UN official or a legal case. She is a human, a mother, a friend, and frankly, a force of nature. She shows us that the fight for justice is not separate from the fight for our own humanity; that when we stand with the vulnerable, we are ultimately standing for ourselves.

"Is the guy who got a medical degree from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, a public health doctorate from Oxford, taught epidemiology, and led the Detroit Health Department… really a doctor?"

New poll in Michigan (May 1-7): Abdul El-Sayed 27% Haley Stevens 18% Mallory McMorrow 17% November 18-21, 2025: Haley Stevens 27% Mallory McMorrow 24% Abdul El-Sayed 16% From Mitchell Research & Communications:

In choosing Dr. Abu Safiya, we are choosing the principle that healing is never a crime. We are choosing the world that Dr. Abu Safiya fought to create—one where children are healed, not harmed, where healers are protected, not punished, and where human dignity remains, always, non-negotiable.

What kind of profession is this, where even death does not interrupt the decision to continue? How does someone stand so close to loss, prison, humiliation, and fear — and still feel compelled to keep telling the truth, out loud? substacktools.com/sharex/8JyANgXp

Dr Hussam Abu Safiya is still incarcerated in Israel, 500 days later, for no crime, except the refusal to abandon the children he swore to help. What sin does a father bear when he refuses to abandon his patients even after his own son is taken from him? ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/the-crime-...

Within 24 hours: 🇩🇪 Germany signs Israel’s largest weapons deal 🇦🇪 UAE signs a $2.3B security deal 🇪🇬 Egypt signs Israel’s largest gas deal If genocide leads to contracts instead of sanctions, then the problem isn’t Israel alone. It’s the world that decided this was acceptable.

“Don’t let them take your humanity. Don’t let them win.” @abbymartin.bsky.social sat with @ahmedeldin.bsky.social and said all the quiet parts Out Loud about Gaza and the global moral collapse we’re all living through. 🎧 Don’t miss the FULL convo on YouTube: 🔗 youtu.be/iOEfn1z_mhY

Israel violated the ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza 47 times — killing 38 Palestinians and injured 143. Today, 11 members of the same family were killed when their bus was struck by an Israeli tank shell. This is a continuation of genocide by other means.

“The Voice of Hind Rajab” stuns #VeniceFilmFestival with its longest standing ovation of 24 minutes amid tears and “Free Palestine” chants. Mark my words: this film isn’t just a moment—it’s a movement. It will move millions to rise, to stand with Palestine ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/the-voice-...

𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐑𝐓 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃? When I asked the godfather of Paleetinian hip hop Tamer Nafar, his answer stunned me: “Art isn’t there to save the flight. It’s just the black box recording the crash.” 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝘾𝙃 𝙁𝙐𝙇𝙇 𝙀𝙋𝙄𝙎𝙊𝘿𝙀: youtu.be/pyGxmAH9Avw

“Maybe Palestinians should invent a new word for what we feel as the world moves on while 2 million people endure genocide.” The godfather of Palestinian hip hop Tamer Nafar says ALL the quiet parts out loud. 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝘾𝙃 𝙁𝙐𝙇𝙇 𝙀𝙋𝙄𝙎𝙊𝘿𝙀: youtu.be/pyGxmAH9Avw

Australia’s own history is stained with the genocide of Indigenous peoples. To atone, Australia must not only confront its past but act now to stop Israeli genocide in Gaza. Real solidarity means learning from history, not repeating it. Australia cannot condemn genocide while fueling it.

Expecting Trump to halt Israel’s Gaza genocide is like asking an arsonist to douse his fire. His career thrives on loyalty to extremist donors & propaganda hiding HR violations. Only global outrage & political isolation might sway him. 🔗 ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/trumps-hos...

I asked Gabor Maté where young people can find hope & his answer stunned me. He also told me to look to people like Francesca Albanese— whom he called “an avatar of truth.” The full convo is packed with profound truths you don’t want to miss. youtu.be/fM6IsawCsNg?...

Every day, Zionist talking points are packaged as news by anchors with AIPAC ties. IDF propaganda floods our feeds, disguised as ads. But when Palestinians share raw footage of their reality, we’re told to ignore it, dismiss it, pretend it doesn’t exist.

Gabor Maté just said what would get most people fired: “What Israel Is Doing In Gaza Is Energetically Almost Identical To What Nazis Did” But he’s lived through it before— and he’s not afraid to say the quiet part out loud! 🔗 WATCH FULL PODCAST: youtu.be/fM6IsawCsNg?...

In this clip, Gabor Mate reflects on where hope lives, and why, even when things feel hopeless, he still sides with the oppressed. In a world wired to reward power, Gabor reminds us that it’s not naïve to hope — it’s necessary. 🔗 WATCH FULL EPISODE: youtu.be/fM6IsawCsNg?...

Israel killed 92 Palestinians today. You probably didn’t hear about it. That’s how genocide becomes routine—when mass killing scrolls by unnoticed, and international law stays silent because it’s Israel pulling the trigger. ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/a-year-and...

Harvard University has rejected the Trump administration's demands for policy changes, putting nearly $9 billion in federal funding at risk

BREAKING: After 10 years of living, studying, & building a life in the U.S., this was supposed to be a moment of transition for Mohsen Mahdawi—a step toward becoming an American citizen. Instead, it was a trap. ICE agents arrested him in Vermont.

NEW: Amid increasing reports that U.S. citizens have been caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration dragnet, a dozen members of Congress have written to the government with pointed questions. None has received a reply. By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

Israel dropped +80,000 tons of explosives on Gaza = 36 kg of explosives for every man, woman, & child trapped inside Gaza. The UN confirmed since March 18, at least 36 Israeli airstrikes have hit sites where the only casualties were women & children.

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: US judge just ruled Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil can be deported. Not because he committed any crimes, but thanks to an outdated 1952 law that gives Marco Rubio the power to kick out anyone they don’t like. substacktools.com/sharex/eGYgEi8a

🚨Trump just appointed Yehuda Kaploun, an Israeli who says “there never was a Palestine” as lead censor of free speech in America aka as the State Department’s Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism.

Netanyahu just sailed through Europe’s borders and airspace, landing in Washington as Gaza bled its horrors on live camera: children ripped apart and beheaded, a journalist immolated in his own tent, and 14 rescue workers methodically executed. The dystopia is here:

Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli and the visionary behind My Neighbor Totoro, is older than the rogue Israeli regime itself, older than the latest iteration of whitewashed militarism, older than the AI-generated propaganda that tries to turn war crimes into bedtime stories.

Israel is blocking all aid to Gaza for 22 days, longer than the October 2023 siege. There is no food, no medicine, no fuel, no water. 🔗 ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/israel-is-... UN warned there is enough flour for just 4 more days. That was 5 days ago. Today, Israel beheaded another child.

Since Israel broke the ceasefire last week, nearly 700 Palestinians have been killed—400 of them women and children. A 6-month-old boy, his mother, and his siblings were brought to Al-Ahli Hospital in severed remains after an airstrike targeted their home. 🔗 ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/israel-is-...

If Dershowitz had an ounce of intellectual honesty, he would not be defending this. He would not be twisting in law to excuse ethnic cleansing. He would not be gaslighting the world into believing that an occupied people have no right to resist their own extermination.

When justice is selective, when laws are bent to accommodate power, when genocide is excused with the language of self-defense, what remains to stop the next massacre, the next unchecked brutality? This is not just about Gaza.

The world as we knew it has ended. Civilians no longer exist—only “legitimate targets,” only “collateral damage.” The language of war has been stripped of its pretense, Francesca Albanese said fresh off her trip to Ireland. No more illusions of civility, no more performative concern.

Yesterday, @ryangrim.bsky.social explained how Elon Musk is pushing for a massive bailout in Delaware. It’s not just Tesla and Musk—Meta/Facebook also played a key role.

There is no illusion left—no diplomatic theater, no political maneuvering—that can conceal what this is. Not anymore. This is a war to erase. To erase homes, to erase histories, to erase an entire people. READ MY LATEST: ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/no-one-wil...

As history has shown, attempts to suppress dissent often serve to amplify it. The Trump administration’s war against student protesters may inadvertently fuel a broader movement, one that transcends campuses and permeates the very fabric of society. substacktools.com/sharex/yQErq...

The United States is setting itself on fire, and it’s doing it to keep Israel warm. Are we willing to sacrifice every institution, every civil liberty, to protect Israel’s regime? If the president can wield war powers in a time of peace: then what, really, can’t he do?

How does Israel move with such impunity? How does a nation, reliant on the diplomatic largesse of the West, manage to mold the very boundaries of acceptable discourse? Perhaps it has something to do with the quiet but deliberate purging of dissenters. 🔗 substacktools.com/sharex/WNP3b-60

The irony could not be thicker. Jelani Cobb, the dean of Columbia’s prestigious journalism school—the very institution meant to train the next generation of journalists—has pleaded with students not to be journalists, in order for them to remain students. 🤯

BREAKING: Jewish Students Rally Against ICE at Columbia University A group of Jewish students have gathered at Columbia University’s Low Steps to protest ICE’s presence on campus following the arrest of Palestinian student-activist Mahmoud Khalil on Saturday.

Mahmoud Khalil is not — according to the White House — accused of breaking the law. He is accused of speaking the wrong words, of holding the wrong beliefs. Marco Rubio thinks Mahmoud would “compromise” US foreign policy —and so he has been disappeared.

What is the lesson of this Ramadan? That we have perfected our performance of piety while forgetting its purpose? That we can recite the prayers, fill the mosques, donate the spare change, and still remain silent in the face of genocide? substacktools.com/sharex/fTnsmafp

Sympathy for Palestinians has surged to a historic high of 33%. Among Democrats, the shift is even more striking: 59% now favor Palestinians, compared to just 21% who side with Israel. This marks the first time in Gallup’s history that Democratic voters have favored Palestinians over Israel.
