Could we stop referrring to them as Israeli "settlers" and use accurate factual terms: Israeli invaders, Israeli pillagers, Israeli marauders, Israeli raiders, Israeli trespassers, Israeli looters, Israeli criminals, Israeli gangs, Israeli terrorists. #Israel #Palestine #WestBank #IsraeliWarCrimes

Sources said that even at the start of his second term, Trump was discussing with multiple advisers where & when it would make sense to send in federal troops, either for supposed crime control or in response to larger-scale public activism against his agenda. 🔗 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Israel "is enticing Palestinians to southern Gaza the way the Nazis enticed starving Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto to board trains to the death camps. The goal is not to feed the Palestinians. The goal is to cram Palestinians into heavily guarded compounds & deport them." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

this speaks a bit to my argument about leaving twitter. it's not about ideological purity, it is about the fact that it's been turned into a political weapon for people who wish to use it to harm others. it's not the marketplace of ideas - you do not have to participate in this project! very simple!

To some, it all sounded theoretical a year ago and was often waved away as an especially fevered manifestation of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Well, it’s not so theoretical anymore. https://trib.al/AK49oMr

In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

Donald Trump has become convinced that Republicans cannot win the midterms, and that a blue wave would effectively end his presidency and confront him with two years of investigations and impeachment proceedings. He needs martial law as an excuse to cancel the midterms. So America is on a clock now.

I can’t get over the volume of hatred for Greta Thunberg. Obviously any woman with an opinion gets an absolute rinsing but the insane, murderous psychotic rage she induces in - for some reason - billionaires boggles the mind.

Why do wealthy men hate Greta Thunberg? Because the very existence of a woman unafraid and driven by conscience terrifies them.

We don't have good words to describe governments and companies that accept 'climate science', but will knowingly burn the world for short term gain. Australia's government is openly planning to supply the fuel for the world's self destruction. I wrote about it, for @crikey.com.au -->>

This Republican Senator - a pro-Israel zealot and Trump ally - is openly threatening the life of Greta Thunberg and others on the Gaza aid ship. Why? Because they're trying to bring aid to a Gaza starved by a key US ally. The world is run by gangsters.

I did say Israel would lure starving Palestinians to these hubs then murder them. Because that’s what they do. Now Americans are directly involved in massacring people. No wonder the head of GHF Jake Wood resigned a week ago saying humanitarian principles wouldn’t be followed

Reminds me when evangelists say AI can fight climate change by improving climate modelling or making plant-based meat. Ignores that the fundamental problem w/ climate is political - fossil fuel and agro-industry will criminalize anything that threatens its power. That is a problem AI can't solve.
