Israel’s decision to cut off electricity supply to Gaza desalination plant cruel and unlawful


“Israel must not be allowed to use water as a weapon of war. Fuel, food, shelter and other supplies critical to the survival of the civilian population are a matter of life and death, not a means to exert pressure in negotiations.
in reply to solo

Everything Israel does to Gaza is cruel and unlawful. Who's going to stop them?


'No Other Land' is a victory for the Palestinian struggle


While some have accused the film of normalization, Masafer Yatta leaders and activists are unwavering in their support for joint resistance.

I don't want to be a broken record here, but the senate had an opportunity to try to force the GOP to negotiate on stuff like this, and they threw it away instantly, with absolutely no effort to apply leverage at all. because they were afraid the GOP might criticize them.

there were probably pretty tight limits on what the senate Ds could get or what they coudl force Trump and Musk to do. but we'll never know what those limits were because they didn't even try.

this is what being complicit means. you vote for trump's bill, you back his nominee for secretary of state...then you're kind of responsible for what happens.

The US Department of State, acting on orders of very questionable legality, destroyed my new, already printed, waiting to be picked up passport for only one reason: it listed my sex as "X".

Please help replace my passport.

¿y la solución es rearmar Europa? De verdad no encuentro que ese rearme contribuya en ninguna manera a la paz ni a la justicia ni a una sociedad más democrática. El manifiesto que mencioné habla del antimilitarismo pacifista de Bertrand Russell; me parece que sigue siendo de completa actualidad y pertinencia.

Rusia está en guerra híbrida con nosotros y está a un tris de que los ayude EEUU (Canadá, Groenlandia). No les gusta la Unión Europea, ni las democracias, ni los derechos de las minorías, ni el feminismo, ni la ciencia. Nuestro modo de vida está en su punto de mira. ¿Qué parte de eso no se entiende? ¿Las declaraciones y acciones de Putin y Trump no son suficientemente explícitas? No están interesados en la diplomacia tradicional. ¿Qué margen de maniobra nos dejan?

Yes. Having a black friend does not make you not racist. Having sex with minorities does not grant you immunity.

I lost 15 followers for calling Gwen Stefani a racist.

Gwen Stefani, who has claimed to be Japanese (because her dad traveled there a lot) and whose vision for her “Harajuku Girl” era was to “own” four Japanese women. The women were contractually forbidden from speaking or using their own names. She herself has never once gone on the record about AAPI hate.

Yes, that Gwen Stefani is a racist.

I was a huge fan once. I am not trying to melt your Tragic Kingdom CDs by acknowledging this.

I stumbled onto "Oi to the world" just last week and it felt so off and dated.
And rascist.

The better to hide their CIA Front 'businesses'. They have literally thousands of them.

BREAKING: Trump halts military aid to Ukraine, media reports


U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered a suspension of all military aid to Ukraine, escalating pressure on President Volodymyr Zelensky mere days after a heated exchange in the Oval Office cast doubt on U.S. support for Kyiv.

A senior Defense Department official told Bloomberg that all U.S. military assistance to Ukraine is on hold until Trump determines that Ukrainian leaders are making a genuine effort toward peace.

The pause affects not only future aid but also weapons already in transit, including shipments on aircraft and ships, as well as equipment awaiting transfer in Poland.
