@LukefromDC Needed them there for a long time to protect the poor and housing deprived. Also, LAPD Metro is planning on forming their own pd separately from lapd. Better to hassle those folks you know? @israel@palestine
Several Israeli media sources (& Hurriyet) report that the #UAE & #Egypt will participate in ‘day after’ Arab security force in Gaza.
Egyptian & Emirati media silent on this, probably because the people are strongly opposed to this scheme; governments would condition participation on Palestinian statehood - which Bibi blocks. @israel@egypt@uae
#Hamas said NO FOREIGN TROOPS, quite clearly a couple of weeks ago @Sherifazuhur. They SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED Arab nations as unwelcome. They don't want so-called 'peacekeepers' from arab #NATO SATRAPS . This is WAR. They intend to win, scorched earth or not
I suggest, without joking, a coalition of the formerly colonized... consisting of the nations in that category pursuing the ICC #genocide case, to supply MILITARY MUTUAL AID to Hamas in the form of #IDF killing troops. @israel@egypt@uae
A brutal, nine-hour, multi-agency police assault against unarmed protesters at UC Santa Cruz shows the university would rather use violence against its own students than address demands to divest from genocide.
“An Israeli officer and three soldiers from the #Givati Brigade were killed and others wounded on Monday during fierce battles in the city of #Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army said it monitored the launching of about 50 missiles from Lebanese territory towards the central Golan while sirens sounded in Haifa.
Israel continued to bomb various areas throughout the Gaza Strip, including Rafah and #Jabaliya.
According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, 37,164 Palestinians have been killed, and 84,832 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza starting on October 7.”
@indyradio ABC is most likely correct. I believe those 3 were killed during the kibbutz raid early on. Hamas has been giving a count and location, but not names, of other hostages killed by the IDF, via a number of telegram channels. @mondoweiss@palestine@israel
Palestine has ignited our planetary consciousness once again, and it is the student movement that refuses to let genocide become our new normal. They know that the fight for Palestine is a fight for us all.
Juan Cole on the war criminals that have already appeared in Congress starting from George W. Bush.
"Lots of other unsavory people have traipsed through the national legislature’s halls. I’m not sure any of them has killed as many innocents as Netanyahu, the Butcher of Gaza."
@NotImpressed Bernie's just angry they never showed him the dead Palestinians when he hung out at that 'model' kibbutz in Israel designed to convince American Jews IsraelFuckYeah, after he bailed on the civil rights movement. Iow, he's playing Fooled. DON'T BE FOOLED by BernJob. His whole public persona is fake. @palestine@israel
Mayors, police chiefs, and university heads have defended their violent attacks on student protests by claiming “outside agitators” are the cause of unrest. This racist trope was used during the civil rights movement and is equally obscene today.
@KawaTora The congresscreeps would do it without the bribes. Israel is a CLIENT STATE for the US and NATO in an oil war they KNEW would eventually happen. The Tail DOES NOT Wag The Dog. Eventually it will be abandoned when it's usefulness runs out. @mondoweiss@palestine@israel
"Muddy Thinking in the Mississippi River Delta uses the story of mud to answer a deceptively simple question: How can a place uniquely vulnerable to sea level rise be one of the nation’s most promiscuous producers and consumers of fossil fuels?"
