Incredible thing to write and publish while a video, taken by an IDF soldier, of dogs eating the carcass of a murdered Palestinian circulates on social media—not an outlier of Israeli treatment of the Palestinians they’ve killed, but the norm.

Constantly witnessing the humanization of every Israeli - by our media, elected officials, everyone - through the genocidal dehumanization of every single Palestinian is really goddamn exhausting.

The NYT is single-handedly responsible for one of the foundational lies that was used to justify the genocide of Palestinians: ‘Screams without words’. Between that & this, it really should end any discussion about the breadth of *intentional complicity* in genocide manufacturing by the NYT.

According to the National Campaign to Recover the Bodies of Martyrs, the Israelis currently hold the bodies of at least 665 Palestinians in Israeli cemeteries and morgues, some since the 60s & 70s. 59 bodies are of children and 259 bodies have been held since Oct 7. /1

A ceasefire doesn’t end a genocide. From the Herero & Nama genocide to the Holocaust to the man-made famines that forged the global south, genocidal projects often achieve the most harm and extermination not through bullets and bombs but the purposeful spread of disease and starvation.

This is the first report I’ve seen from a U.S. newsroom about the accelerated US-backed Israeli slaughter that’s been taking place in north Gaza over the last few days. 🧵

According to Palestinian health workers & journalists, the Israelis seem to be using new weapons that *vaporize* any human body within a few hundred meters in North Gaza. Gaza has long been used as a laboratory - the Israelis test weapons & then there is a spike in global demand for those weapons.

The breadth of denialism of the genocide of Palestinians is still astounding to me bc of just how much dehumanization it requires. Never in history have we seen an extermination of a nation play out in front our eyes so explicitly and never has there been this breadth and effort put into denial.

If the bombs won’t kill them, if the starvation won’t kill them, if the injuries won’t kill them, if the bullets won’t kill them, if the diseases won’t kill them, if the lack of medical care won’t kill them.. the Israelis & Americans will find every other way to kill them.

After 14 months of this, you cannot find a single Palestinian who doesn’t carry a heavy sadness in their eyes. Palestinians will exist, they will outlive their oppressors - but this much loss is unbearable for any nation and it should be unbearable for the rest of us too.

This is the expected trajectory of anti-migrant ideology that has been accelerating for the past decade. This is a continuation of policies that are rooted in post-2001 border & citizenship security politics. Trump has every tool at his disposal to do this, empowered by the previous admins. 🧵

Media blackout as the UN Special Committee calls Israel’s actions in Gaza genocide. Meanwhile, Israel plans to annex the West Bank by 2025, bans UNRWA, and the U.S. ramps up efforts to crush the Palestinian movement. This is a full-scale assault on the very existence of Palestinians.

Someone recently said that while they enjoy my writing & perspectives, they found my approach “caustic” -specifically that I call Israeli society ‘rotten’. Reading the details - again - of the Sde Teiman torture camp reminds me how ‘rotten’ is, in fact, too polite of a word to ascribe to Israel.

I use Twitter primarily these days for news / commentary on Gaza - Bluesky doesn’t have it, especially when it’s kicking off Palestinians in Gaza. So, I’m gonna be where Palestinian journalists are.✨

From its citizenship laws to the occupation to its apartheid and ethnic cleansing to its long history in spreading anti-Arab/Muslim bigotry, calling Israel racist is a fact not a condemnation. There’s too much cowardice from American progressives.

this is like twitter march 2009 when it felt like no one was reading your tweets so you posted absolutely everything and anything that could cost you a public career later in life
