The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

Sharing words from & in support of Gaza

 


 

Here are some words from people in Gaza or from those supporting Palestinians that I saw yesterday on twitter.

Bruce  


  • Rabbi David Mivasair🔥: Israel will flood Hamas tunnels with nerve gas under US navy supervision -- So now Israel is gassing Palestinians. I guess they learned nothing at all from history.
  • Ariel Gold אריאל ✡️☮️🕊: Shame on Biden for making Palestinians prove their count of their murdered people. So dehumanizing and racist.
  • Aseel AlBajeh  أسيل البجة: The Ministry of Health just published the names of 7,028 Palestinians, including 2,913 children killed in #Gaza. Scrolling over this is so painful. The first 88 names are from the same family! The next 72 from one family! And the indescribable pain goes on. No words.
  • Sky News: Sky News analysis of satellite radar suggests that Israel has intensified its bombing of southern Gaza in the last two weeks - despite ordering residents of the north to flee southwards.

  • Maria: A 91-year old man, honored by Israel for saving a Jewish life during the Nazi Holocaust, has returned his medal in protest of the Gaza assault.

  • Eman Basher: I want to stop writing my short diary. I feel hopeless and helpless. A body without a soul. nothing has changed. If I ever survived, I will need a lifetime of therapy. And if Israel didn’t kill me, I’ll probably commit suicide. What I write shortly here is not even 5% of what is happening and what we’re going through.

  • Jewish Currents: Across Europe, leaders are responding to growing pro-Palestine protests with an unprecedented wave of repression. [Particularly in Germany]

 

  • Sally Hates Capitalism: The colonizers, AKA the nation-state of Israel, have literally *always* been terrorists since the Nakba, AND in the years leading up to the Nakba in fact. (See Irgun.) Israel can only exist through terrorism toward the indigenous people, the Palestinians, who’ve always been there

  • Megatron BREAKING: Hundreds of US soldiers landed in Israel. They also report that France is sending the Tonnerre helicopter carrier, capable of carrying dozens of helicopters and hundreds of marine soldiers, to Israel. Britain, Germany and Australia are also sending their military groups to the region, warships, special forces, aircraft and more. The Pentagon reports that 900 US troops are being deployed or are already in the Middle East from the continental US, including air defense operators.

  • Remi Kanazi: Israel offers an influencer $5,000 to post a propaganda video to his 3 million TikTok followers. He says no amount of money can get him to do that and shouts “Free Palestine!” at the end of the video

  • Mohammed El-Kurd: Palestinians refuse submission. Zionists killed Dahdouh’s family to break his spirit, but he was back on-air just hours later. Here, rescuers sing with a woman after hours of digging her out of the rubble. One even jokingly asked her “how’s the oxygen?”

  • IfNotNow🔥: American Jews organizing our community to end U.S. support for Israel's apartheid system & demand equality, justice, and a thriving future for all #CeasefireNOW

  • Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI): The number of #Palestinians in Israeli custody has doubled since October 7, reaching 10,000 detainees and #prisoners. According to reports arriving from Israeli prisons and testimonies from recently released detainees, the Israel Prison Service is abusing Palestinians.

  • (Shabir) Free Julian Assange & Palestine 🇵🇸Yemen: Absolutely Heart breaking Goodbye My sweet child: Sleep my baby, sleep. The Israeli bomb was too big for you to stand. It isn't your fault that you were born in colonized Gaza!
  • Ahmed Alnaouq: This is where my house once stood. This is where my parents prepared my flat to start my own ‘happy’ family. This is where all my memories shaped and where I spent my childhood. This is also where I lost over 20 of my family. Nine are still under rubble, 6 days aftermath.

  • Rafeeq McNamara 🚨🎥 #Watch: Internationally prohibited bombs dropped by the occupation on the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City a short while ago
  • Megatron BREAKING 🇨🇳🇮🇷 Chinese State Media, Xinhua News on X: "China will continue to firmly support Iran in safeguarding its national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national dignity, and will strongly oppose any external forces interfering in Iran's internal affairs, said Chinese premier". It seems that things are boiling in the background to a major conflict.  Such statements from China's state authorities are rare.
  • David Roth-Lindberg Update from Quds News Network: "Israeli jets targeted the family of the head of surgery in the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza,  Mohammad Al Rann, killing them all." They also say that Israel is intentionally targeting the families of doctors and journalists, killing entire families.
  • Quds News Network: In a tragic incident at the entrance to the Jalazone camp, located to the north of Ramallah, a teenager was fatally shot by Israeli soldiers, resulting in the loss of the young life.  
  • Jackson Hinkle 🇺🇸  🇪🇸🇮🇱: Spanish Minister of Social Rights Ione Belarra has called on the European countries to immediately CUT TIES with ISRAEL.
