Blinken says Hamas “must” respond to Israel’s proposal as the U.S. begins building a sea pier. Meanwhile, the UN says that 5% of Gaza’s population has been killed or wounded since the beginning of Israel’s assault in October.
A Palestinian member of 'Humboldt for Palestine' talks about Palestine organizing at Cal Poly Humboldt, the recent police sweep of activists protesting the Gaza genocide, and what the mainstream media has missed.
#Israel / Two prisoners die in Ofer prison, one of them a prominent doctor from Gaza
The head of the Palestinian Prisoners Club (a nongovernmental organization dealing with prisoners’ rights), Kadoura Fares, said that Dr. Al-Birsh's body has not been handed over to them, and they have also not received autopsy reports.
The second prisoner who died is 33-year-old Ismail Abdelebari Khadar. According to the Prisoners Club, his body was transferred today to Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing along with dozens of other prisoners from the Strip who were released today.
Israeli Military and Security Agency have not yet responded.

One of the essential element to defend oneself against State & Fascist goon squads is by having squads of self defence of our own i.e building street muscle.
However unlike both of those two authoritarian squads, this is structured in a completely non-hierarchical manner thats born in solidarity with loyalty only to truth & one's conscience which respects autonomy of both individuals & groups, self-constituted from the community it's part of.
With no loyalty/respect to Law or Constitution or Nation or Religion or Race or Gender or Caste or Class or whatever the bullshit ruling class euphemism/division that exists to control & dominate rest of society.
We can't wish away violence & don't have to pretend State, Capital & Fascism will give up their power voluntarily. They are never going to, never have, never will. They need to be forced.
(I am sure others would have already put this more concisely & more clearly than me long before, but this is what I can think of now. Also I beleive this is what many Antifa groups are trying to achieve too — good on them. I think others also call it: Community self-defence committees).
"Over the next few hours, counter-demonstrators threw objects, including wood and a metal barrier, at the camp and those inside, with fights repeatedly breaking out..."
#ICJ / Turkey to join South Africa's genocide case against Israel
[…] "Upon completion of the legal text of our work, we will submit the declaration of official intervention before the ICJ with the objective of implementing this political decision,"
Daily reminder that The Most Moral Army of the so-called #Jewish (#Ashkenazi#whitesupremacist#settlercolonial) State tied up #patients (men, women, and children) and medical staff at #Nasser Hospital in #Gaza and executed them in cold blood before dumping their bodies in a mass grave.
At UCLA, looks like State goons shot someone in the face, in additional brutalising the rest of students violently.
Despite me being a pessimist (largely due to the stuff I read & experiences of others I personally heard in real life), I assumed they would start blood letting little later once they find a more opportune time (thru instigation & rest of tactics they have at their disposal), as only a day before they exposed themselves as an extension of fascist thuggery, but no, they realised its an opportunity to start attacking students right away. They are making me look like an optimist.
In essence, they sent the fascist goons to attack the day before, so they can come prepared to attack themselves a day later.
State–Capital–Fascist nexus is materialising sooner than we expect.
Fascism never dies a silent death. Capital never dies a silent death. State never dies a silent death
Israel is deliberately destroying the entire health sector in Gaza as only 4 hospitals remain operational. "If these hospitals stop working, they will turn into mass graves, like Nasser and al-Shifa," Muhammad Zaqout, General Director of Hospitals in Gaza, told Mondoweiss.
