“Gaza tra Washington e il mondo arabo: il ‘Consiglio per la Pace’ come nuovo mandato coloniale”

L’attuale scenario a Washington non assomiglia a nessun discorso tradizionale sulla “pace” in Medio Oriente, ma piuttosto a una nuova piattaforma per gestire l’egemonia statunitense–israeliana sotto u...

La rivoluzione egiziana è stata un processo diffuso, sociale, collettivo — non uno spettacolo confinato in un solo luogo. Quando la memoria si restringe, si indebolisce anche la possibilità di resistenza. Ricordare significa restituire spazio a tutte le voci. 🔗 ilmanifesto.it/la-rivoluzio...

Where is the Western media while the genocide continues? They’re prolonging the negotiations just to give Israel more time to kill civilians.

GHF need to be investigated for complicity in war crimes. "He said contractors were given no clear rules of engagement or standard operating procedures, and were told by one team leader: "if you feel threatened, shoot – shoot to kill and ask questions later". www.bbc.com/news/article...

Gaza aid contractor tells BBC he saw colleagues fire on hungry Palestinians

The Israel- and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has strongly denied the allegation.

Povero Netanyahu, ha dovuto rimandare il matrimonio del figlio — troppo impegnato a far morire di fame i palestinesi e bombardare ospedali. Deve essere difficile organizzare una festa durante un genocidio.

From today massacre in #Gaza, Western media silence is complicity.

FIFA and football federations have banned any gesture of solidarity with Palestine. Players are fined, suspended, silenced — just for denouncing a genocide. But posing with the fascist Trump, who openly talks about bombing Tehran and supports the ongoing genocide in Gaza? No problem.

Netanyahu oggi ci ricorda che bombardare ospedali è un crimine di guerra secondo il diritto internazionale. Peccato che dopo aver raso al suolo tutti ospedali a Gaza, ci si ricordi del diritto solo quando le vittime non sono palestinesi.

Advocating for a ceasefire to stop the killing of innocent children is not supporting Hamas. Criticizing the IDF for committing mass atrocities is not supporting Hamas. Standing up for Palestinian rights is not supporting Hamas. All of that is constitutionally-protected speech.

BREAKING: Israeli army vehicles are targeting the Bedouin village of Umm al-Nasr in northern Gaza with heavy gunfire, report our colleagues on the ground. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/56wv7q

Israeli Knesset member Almog Cohen incited violence on live TV, calling Ramadan “the best time to kill them” because Muslims are “weak and tired” from fasting. This dehumanizing rhetoric is a blatant violation of human rights and fuels atrocities. #Gaza #stopgenocide

Denying food, water, and medicine to an entire population is not just cruelty—it’s a war crime. Israel’s total siege on Gaza violates fundamental human rights and international law. #HumanRights #Gaza

I want to watch TV coverage of the live fall of the Syrian regime. CNN is airing a Giuliani documentary, Fox News has a comedian joking about Canada, MSNBC a documentary about migrants So I turned on BBC,which is breathlessly switching between Syria, South Korea demonstrations, and Ghana election

He is now free… Syria’s longest-serving detainee, “Ragheed Al-Tatri,” has been released after 43 years of imprisonment. He was moved through several prisons, ending up in Tartous Central Prison, and was freed with the last group of detainees following the fall of the tyrant Bashar al-Assad’s regime.

In the city of Sahnaya, located in the countryside of Damascus, Syrian Christians are celebrating the fall of Assad: “One, one, one the Syrian people are one” as the church bells rings.

Bashar al-Assad flees to an unknown location. #Syria

A moment that will be captured in the history books. Saydnaya personifies the terror of the Syrian regime. Known as the "human slaughterhouse," it was site to the secret executions of 13,000 people in a single 5 year period & continued to hold thousands of unjustly detained.
