When the world allows Israel to behave outside of international law and norms, including killing Palestinian children in record numbers, targeting hospitals and using rape and starvation as weapons, it will continue violating every law and norm.

There are a number of words one could use to describe detonating hundreds of small bombs without knowing who or how many people might be in close proximity, but “precise” is not one of them.

The Israeli government committed mass terrorism on Lebanon yesterday. They were not intimidated by whatever the US — their largest weapons supplier — said in response. Politicians & the media meanwhile whitewashed, even glorified it. So they went ahead and did it again today.

“He was joyful and he gave so much love.” Hanaan Shahin, mother of Palestinian-American child Wadee Alfayoumi, says remembering her son who was stabbed to death in an apparent hate crime. Watch the full interview with Wadee’s mother: zeteo.com/p/exclusive-me…

It's a testament to the normalization of Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism that this man can be openly racist in a Senate hearing (that's about combatting hate, no less) and come away with virtually no condemnation from his colleagues.

Israel’s pager attack in Lebanon detonated thousands of handheld devices across of a slew of public spaces, seriously injuring and killing innocent civilians. This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a

In a letter to the IGs, the group said it was aware the IGs received information from whistleblowers indicating U.S. officials “are knowingly violating domestic and international law .. in order to continue providing U.S. weapons to Israel for its war on Gaza."

Another attempt to erase Palestinians in Congress. They don’t even want products made in Palestine to say made in Palestine. It’s ethnic cleansing.

For clarity: 1) Lebanese homes & shops are not a combat zone; they are a civilian setting w/children & bystanders (who have been killed & injured here). 2) Not everyone affiliated w/Hezbollah is a combatant. Extrajudicial killing of non-combatants is a war crime.

You should have the right to know whether a product is made in an illegal Israeli settlement before you buy it. These 16 Democrats disagree. They voted with Republicans to make permanent a Trump-era notice to mark products made on stolen Palestinian land as “Made in Israel.”

“Noncombatants were also drawn into the fray.” NYT is trying really hard to avoid saying Israel killed civilians in Lebanon attack.

The Gaza Ministry of Health released a 649-page document with the name of every identified Palestinian killed in Gaza. The first 14 pages alone are babies under the age of one. This is not self-defense. This is genocide.

I’m showing our documentary No Other Land in the NY Film Festival this week, about my dad and our life under occupation in Masafer Yatta. Things only got worse since we made it: Today my dad was kidnapped by soldiers, blindfolded, tied for hours inside a settlement for no reason

Shame on the The Detroit News for allowing this racist, xenophobic vile cartoon on their platform. Pay attention to who condemns this. And then recognize the different standard Arab and Muslim politicians are held by.

Absolutely disgusting. Anti-Arab bigotry & Islamophobia have become normalized in our media. The National Review ran this dangerous cartoon of Rashida Tlaib. This garbage was created by Henry Payne with the The Detroit News. At what point will people call this out?

.Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, my constituents, + millions across the country continue to face hatred and threats of violence simply for existing while being Palestinian, Arab, or Muslim. Yet, few of my colleagues will condemn this, + there will be no hearings or actions to fight back. Shameful.
