Man in LA to National Guard: "We know you got a job to do. But you took an oath to the Constitution—not the fascists in the White House…You think any of these people in the White House sending you these commands give a fuck about you?" "Ask yourself the future you want for your children—is it this?"

When the UK threatens to defund the ICC for daring to hold Israeli officials accountable, it’s not just shielding war crimes — it’s assaulting the very system of international justice it helped create. You can’t claim to uphold the rule of law while sabotaging it. #EndImpunity #InternationalLaw

Our taxes should reflect our values — not fund destruction abroad while we suffer at home. It’s time to talk about a peaceful tax revolt. #ConscienceCanada #FundPeace #EndMilitarism #WarTaxResistance #HumanRights #Demilitarize #EthicalTaxation #DefundViolence #PeaceIsAChoice

🚨 Israeli forces have reportedly boarded the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. Connection to the Madleen ship has been lost.

The Israeli defense minister is openly threatening the life of GretaThunberg and other unarmed peace activists on an aid ship. Where the f**k are the world’s leaders? The world’s media?

Madleen sails to challenge an unlawful blockade, but Israel is jamming their GPS and may attack or intercept the boat. This voyage seeks justice and dignity. The world must watch—silence emboldens impunity. Follow, witness, and share.🙏🏾 #Gaza #InternationalLaw #TrackTheMadleen

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

@zeteo.com Israel arming ISIS-linked gangs in Gaza marks a new phase of the genocide—fueling internal chaos to destroy Palestinian society. This was never about Hamas. It’s about erasing a people. The ICC must act. Silence is complicity. #Gaza #Genocide #InternationalLaw

"If this was 1944, 1945, when we discovered the horrors of Auschwitz, would we be contacting Heinrich Himmler for his take on the genocide?" Game of Thrones star @liamcunningham1.bsky.social slams the 'both sides' BBC for indulging Israeli lies & spin. My full interview: zeteo.com/p/game-of-th...

It’s time for Canada to act. Send an urgent message demanding that Prime Minister Carney and Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand follow through with sanctions and impose an arms embargo on Israel now! www.cjpme.org/tell_carney_...

According to @thiagoavilabtasil on Instagram there is a drone over them as of 30 mins ago. Please tell everyone to demand a safe passage. Put Israel on notice bit.ly/IsraelOnNotice

Chilling threat by Israeli prison officers to mark dissenters with a Star of David is not only grotesque in its symbolism but also reveals the state’s treatment of those who challenge its violence. The same government, and its defenders abroad, routinely smear critics as “antisemites.” #+972mag

This is not a joke. Threatening and ridiculing peaceful human rights defenders sailing to end an illegal blockade — one that has caused immeasurable suffering — reflects a disturbing disregard for international law and human dignity. #Gaza #AllEyesOnDeck #FreedomFlotilla #Madleen #EndOccupation

'Madleen' sails to Gaza today with twelve humanitarians and as much life-saving aid as she can carry, including baby formula, medical supplies, and more. She departs from European territorial waters, sailing entirely through international waters into Palestinian waters off Gaza.

As the Madleen challenges an unlawful blockade, tracking ensures global eyes remain on Israel’s response. This voyage is a call for justice and dignity. The world must watch—silence enables impunity. Follow, witness, and share.🙏🏾 #Gaza #InternationalLaw #TrackTheMadleen #RightToLife

This made me smile today. Enjoy!

NEW: This opinion piece in today’s Washington Post is one of the most important it has ever published. Shadi Hamid on the urgency of calling the Gaza crimes what they so patently are: a genocide. I don’t like violating paywalls, but make no apology for doing so for this. It’s essential.

Beneath all the propaganda, all the nice words about human rights and equality and international law, this is it. This is the material manifestation of Western values.

Microsoft should not integrate Grok into their products. @microsoft.com does not want to be complicit in Musk’s techno—authoritarian takedown of the US. Folks that work at the company should start shaking their fists at corporate.

ANNOUNCING 🇵🇸 Stop Booking Apartheid! Through Booking.com, Israeli settlers list dozens of hotels on stolen Palestinian land. That is why workers, activists and citizens are coming together to take action against Booking's complicity on 8 May.

@premthakker.bsky.social We’re witnessing a denial of humanity, not just port entry. A civilian aid ship, under attack, seeks refuge under international law. And aid is met with aggression, as states attack those upholding basic human values.

Watch this ALARMING footage from last night's attack on the Freedom Flotilla carrying aid to Gaza. Stay tuned for story from @premthakker.bsky.social coming shortly to zeteo.com Credit: Freedom Flotilla Coalition
