"It's not plausible that the shooter could not have seen that the car was occupied by civilians, including children," an investigation of the five-year-old #Palestinian girl's death found.
Forensic investigation reveals Hind Rajab's car was hit with 355 bullets and finds it "not plausible" that the Israeli tank couldn't see children inside the car @israel@palestine

I remember, over a decade ago, I read about IDF soldiers, in a watchtower over one of the apartheid ghettos where they keep Palestinians as prisoners in their own country, got bored and were shooting Palestinian kids at a school. They were not punished. Of course they saw this little kid. They like killing kids. It's sport for them. #Genocide#Gaza#FreePalestine
#US / American Immigration Authorities to Israelis: Have You Committed War Crimes?
Requests by Israelis for a "Green Card" are being delayed due to an in-depth investigation into their military service: "The interviewer was very curious about my weapon skills and wanted to know details about my reserve duty in Gaza", "I travel to the US so often, I've never experienced such bullying", "It feels like they copied questions from the office of the Chief Prosecutor in The Hague"
These probing and questions seem to be aimed at investigating whether the person being questioned may have been involved in any war crimes or unethical uses of force during their military service. The tone and framing suggests the immigration authorities have serious concerns they are trying to scrutinize very carefully.
For example:
Have you ever actually used weapons or explosives? If so: What kinds of weapons or explosives did you use? How did you use the weapons or explosives? In how many cases did you use weapons or explosives? How frequently did you use weapons or explosives?; Did you ever discharge a weapon and/or explosive against another person? If so, please detail the circumstances for doing so, and explain why you discharged a weapon and/or explosive against another person/other people.
Note: take with a grain of salt, given the source's tendency toward sensationalism and accusations of discrimination/antisemitism, even when the scrutiny may be reasonably warranted given the serious nature of potential war crimes, or a routine. The article is not based on any meaningful research work, and seems to be a collection of anecdotal first hand reports (with the obligatory “product placement” of a specific legal service provider.)
Gaza protest t-shirt - I came up with the design, and a vendor of Etsy produces and sells it. Still for sale on Etsy - see link below. (Full disclosure - I get no material benefit from sales, only the vendor does.)
Asking for feedback
The phrase "From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free" has caused a lot of confusion - some of it genuine and some caused by willful manipulation.
I'm trying to come up with a graphic that can get across what most of those supporting Palestinian freedom mean by it - not expulsion of Jews but freedom and equality for all living there.
Below is a graphic that might end up on a t-shirt.
