'This Is a Crime Against Humanity': 600,000 Children in Line of Fire as #IDF Moves on Rafah
"We had already run out of words to describe how catastrophic the situation is in #Rafah—but this next chapter will take it to indescribable new levels" - Save the Children International CEO.
#Gaza This is where #Israel’s army has told people in #Rafah to go. Ironic because no resources - no water, food, electricity or space; also, al-Mawasi’ was a no-exit enclave before ISR withdrew in ‘05 @israel@palestine
As Civil Defense teams continue to unearth hundreds of bodies from the mass graves discovered at Nasser Hospital, Palestinians are flocking to the medical complex in search of their missing loved ones.
Joe Biden continues to fully support the Gaza genocide because he does not believe it will hurt him politically, and because he has no empathy for the Palestinians. This is the same arrogance that brought down LBJ over the Vietnam war.

The One-State Solution
By Edward Said
Jan. 10, 1999
This is an article by the late #EdwardSaid. He was a #Palestinian - American philosopher, academic, literary critic, and political activist. and a professor of literature at #Columbia University.
It spells out his position that only a binational state based on equality will work in #Palestine - #Israel.
Israeli university presidents condemnation of the Gaza solidarity protests in the U.S. is revealing Israeli universities' complicity in occupation, apartheid, and genocide.
The Israeli military have started it's ground offensive against Rafah by the border of Egypt by air, artillery and tanks.
There are reports of heavy bombings and classes by the border, with no reaction from the Egyptian military despite loud warning about such acts just a few weeks ago.
For the Netayahu regime, the hostages are worth more dead than alive, since they being dead "proves" that "Hamas is bad", while they returning alive would mean that Israel no longer has any reason to continue their onslaught.
#Israel On the petition to the High Court on whether aid to Gaza has been sufficient (per yr question @Tony_Meredith I don’t see a follow-up from the Sunday hearing & it’s chaotic now as everyone’s fllwing Rafah and the Israeli protests) @israel
