The US signed onto and ratified all four, but seems to me the 4th Convention is especially worth a reminder. It protects civilians in wartime, bans murder, torture, deportations, hostage taking, discrimination. It also PROHIBITS collective punishment and requires humane treatment/access to relief.

There is no future for humanity in which the basic conditions for life for millions of people can be destroyed on one person’s whim.

Help a student get healthcare!!! Seraj was super nervous to ask for help for this, because he carries the needs of all his siblings and looks after them first. But I said we could try: help him get urgent dental care. It's impacting his health. Anything helps! 100/200: tiny.cc/SerajSmile

1940: 🇩🇪🇫🇷The Nazis warned the French non-Jews to not hide any Jews, otherwise there would be consequences. 2026: 🇮🇱🇱🇧The Israelis warn the Lebanese non-Muslims to not hide any Muslims, otherwise there will be consequences.

Firing your generals is famously an action taken when you’re winning, your enemy is “totally defeated” and you’re going to wrap up your incredible victory in 2-3 weeks

Crips for eSIMs for Gaza keeps Palestinian journalists, doctors, students, and more stay connected to the world. This is a key lifeline as internet remains weak. Help them stay connected. With the team in the red, this connectivity can't be sustained. Make it monthly if you can! bit.ly/esimsUK

I’m going to ask this again in the morning, but can anyone please platform this woman? @truthout.org @zeteo.com? If you know anyone else, please share her story with them. Enough is enough.

Iranian-American professor Shirin Saeidi was unanimously recommended for reinstatement by faculty at the University of Arkansas after review. The administration overrode them anyway, citing fear of losing funding under antisemitism laws. Because she criticized Israel. arktimes.com/arkansas-blo...

Death penalties are bad Hanging people is bad A death penalty for some, not all, is apartheid Wherever you are, do what you can: ✅Boycott Israel ✅Call on your government to sanction Israel ✅Call on your institution to divest from Israel www.thepipd.com/wp-content/u...

This is the sort of gangsterism that even Genghis Khan found to be offensive, it breaks a taboo that predates the very idea of true international law.

Israel deliberately prevented humanitarian aid from getting into Gaza for the purpose of inducing famine conditions, and the Biden administration knew this and did not use any material leverage to prevent it, and indeed repeatedly lied about their efforts to effect a change in Israeli policy.

And of these forces one is in the southern Arabian Sea, one just started getting there on Monday, and one is in Hawaii

Wang makes her best point, which was made in one of the briefs: Babies of Japanese citizens born while their parents were INTERRED during world war 2 were [wait for it] US citizens. That history ALONE should be dispositive.

Since October 2023, Israel has destroyed ~300 sports facilities and killed nearly 1,000 athletes in Gaza and the West Bank. 9 out of Gaza’s 10 stadiums and the facilities of 51 out of 54 of Gaza’s football clubs were damaged by Israel. 🧵 www.dropsitenews.com/p/football-i...

When they say it's about "security" or "Hezbollah", remember this...

Isfahan is a city with over 2,500 years of continuous history. The US and Israel are bombing one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the region. Over 2 million people live there. I’ve only heard from my family once since the war began and this is their city, Isfahan, tonight. #Iran

Day 11 of daily video to fundraise for displaced people in Lebanon. In which I introduce Alistair and my Zither. Donate here: www.chuffed.org/project/1719...

Massive attacks tonight on central Isfahan, a sacred and stunning city in Iran of 2.3 million people. The city is on fire. The deaths and damage will be catastrophic. It would be like someone blowing up the Vatican, for comparison. May those responsible burn in hell. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isfahan

Saudi Arabia can tell the US to stop using its airspace for operations against Iran at any time. Saudi Arabia can do so and likely cut a separate deal with Iran allowing Saudi freedom of movement through the Strait. Ditto for Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, etc

I visited Lebanon's suicide prevention hotline center, where calls have doubled in comparison with 2024's mass displacement. www.aljazeera.com/features/202...

Fascinating piece on how the blockade in the strait of Hormuz is choking off access to the very materials the US needs to keep fighting this- or any- war. mwi.westpoint.edu/the-chokepoi...

Iran did not attack Qatar at all last week, thanks to understandings reached between Doha and Tehran, following the attack on Qatari gas facilities at Ras Laffan last week, which prompted the Qataris to try to "completely remove themselves" from the war.

In contrast to Israel, which has used starvation as a weapon of war against the Palestinians for years, in contrast to Saudi doing the same in Yemen during its brutal intervention, Iran’s has quickly accepted to work with the UN to bring needed aid into the Gulf x.com/farnoushamir...

I’ve been a journalist for 27 years. I’ve reported major stories about mass surveillance, torture, war, the military-industrial complex, police black sites, etc. But this is the most important story I’ve ever had the horror/honor to work on. For it is a story about the current phase of a genocide.

Really sit with this: most people can't access survival funds or eSIMs. And earning an income also means autonomy & dignity for Palestinians as they face continued engineered hunger. Sustain internet & electricity for a community. Hit "weekly"!! chuffed.org/project/spar...

Three Israeli illegal outposts were established in the past day in Area A territories, and one more in Area B territory and one in Area C territory. Five Palestinians were shot with live fire by Jewish rioters, one of the injured in critical condition. All of this - Last few days

More than one million displaced by Israel’s evacuations in Lebanon https://aje.news/tgedzo

The "field hospital" the IDF specifically asked us to establish (at great cost to the US taxpayer and against humanitarian principles) so that they could include it in their legal argument that they're not committing genocide was bombed repeatedly and forced to move 3 times by IDF evac orders

Pakistan claims that Israel was prepared to assassinate the Iranian foreign minister and the speaker of parliament but backed off after the US acceded to Islamabad's requests, bolstering the evidence that Israel would rather the US have no one to negotiate with at all.

It was soldiers of the Iraqi Army and Hashd volunteers who liberated Ramadi, Tikrit, Fallujah, Mosul, Tel Afar from the genocidal forces of ISIS. The sons of Basra, Dhi Qar, Baghdad, Nasiriyah died by the thousands to defeat ISIS.

Latest needs for these six families & a camp are food, medicine, shelter, and baby supplies & children’s clothes. Hit "weekly" on spare change to join almost three hundred folks sustaining support for their survival needs: chuffed.org/project/hope...

Palestine Scholars Murdered in the Gaza Genocide rememberinggazascholars.org

The same MK said this in 2023: “the Gaza Strip should be flattened, and there should be one sentence for everyone there – death. We have to wipe the Gaza Strip off the map. There are no innocents there”

Where would the Merkava tank engine be built? Where would the majority of Arrow 3 missile components be manufactured? Where would they acquire aerial bombs and 155mm artillery shells and 120mm tank shells? How would Israel finance the massive shift to domestic manufacturing?

#BREAKING | "There are no innocent civilians in Jenin, there are no innocent children in Jenin" - MK Yitzhak Kroizer refers to the killing of the Palestinian family by security forces: "I back the IDF fighters in every situation, even if the incidental cost is children or women"

Watching the men of Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran dig women and children from rubble & comfort them with soft voices, protect their modesty, speak to and handle them with such care & concern… well It has broken open something in me and so many others who witnessed the humanity that defied stereotypes
