Today I saw a city burning on TV. —Charles Simic

It is mind boggling to me that some of America’s most famous writers are still regularly tweeting about US politics & world conflict—Trump, Putin, Ukraine—but have yet to post a single word about Gaza/Israel/Biden How are you not eaten up with shame every time you open this app?

‘“What they don’t like is that I am now applying the same social justice journalism principles that I’ve applied to race and that I’ve applied to LGBTQ people, to COVID and HIV, that I was now applying those to Palestine,” says Thrasher.’

To the authors nominated this week for the 2024 Giller Prize: I know it’s a professional sacrifice to withdraw, but this is a picket line you really don’t want to cross Elbit Systems profits help fund this award. Until Scotiabank divests, the prize money is drenched in blood.

Despite the horrors they and their people were facing and despite having no certainty that they would grow old, they decided to still celebrate love & to grow it through a child. They decided to live. May Allah swt keep them & their child together in Jannatul Firdaus, ameen.

“Our demand is simple — our elected leaders must enforce existing U.S. and international humanitarian laws that prohibit the use of military assistance to commit ‘grave human rights violations’”

Mark Ruffalo, Mahershala Ali, Cynthia Nixon, and Ilana Glazer Vs. Debra Messing, Michael Rapaport, and Julianna Margulies If you knew absolutely nothing else about the conflict…

I just saw a little Palestinian girl killed while covering her ears from the sound of U.S. bombs launched by Israel. She was someone’s child. After helping turn Gaza into a graveyard for children, Blinken wants to quietly move on and spend time with his own.

What’s so hard and complicated to understand about kicking someone out of their literal home and bringing people from all over the world to live in it?

A 26 year old American peace activist was just shot in the head and killed by an Israeli sniper in the West Bank

.Secretary Antony Blinken: Do something to save lives!

“I’ve stopped playing What Would It Take? because the answer is excruciatingly clear: absolutely nothing will prompt the Biden administration to rein Israel in.” Every word of this piece.

Dana Bash, on CNN, compared anti-genocide student protestors on US campuses to the rise of fascism in 1930s Europe That, and innumerable other instances of overt bias and parroting of Israeli talking points, made her “coverage” particularly egregious But you know all this, Jake

Israeli forces killed 26-year-old American Ayşenur Eygi. At the same weekly protest they shot an American teacher just weeks ago. She just arrived Tuesday—with the same group 23-year-old Rachel Corrie was part of as she was killed by an Israeli bulldozer.zeteo.com/p/26-year-amer…

Glad to see Senator Chris Van Hollen, who led efforts for justice on Israel’s murder of Shireen Abu Akleh, continue to demand accountability for Israel killing another U.S. citizen in the West Bank over the past year. Van Hollen notably said DOJ should act if Israel’s government doesn’t.

When your gov spends 11 straight months (to say nothing of 76 straight years) aggressively dehumanizing an entire people (as well as, in Corrie’s case, any American who dares to stand with them), of course trolls will feel emboldened to do this. Even so, a supposed man of God…

Students take note: as always ⁦The New York Times⁩ does not include in its headline who shot and killed this American: the Israeli army. The same one that killed American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh that the U.S. did nothing about, and the same army carrying out a genocide in Gaza.

We have never seen a more gleefully malign actor carry out a military campaign of such deliberate and unconcealed viciousness with complete and total impunity. It is truly horrifying to witness unfold day after day, and it should haunt America like the ghosts of the Iraq War.

Now The Seattle Times is reporting on the murder, by the Israeli Army in the occupied West Bank, of recent UW College of Arts & Sciences graduate Aysenur Eygi. My colleague and dear friend Aria Fani—the murdered UW alumna’s professor—is quoted in the story. seattletimes.com/seattle-news/a… #Ayşenur #Palestine

New statement from Ayşenur Eygi's family: "Like the olive tree she lay beneath where she took her last breaths, Aysenur was strong, beautiful, and nourishing.…an Israeli investigation is not adequate. We call on Biden, Harris, and Blinken to order an independent investigation…"
