Our union is proud to have been one of the first unions to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, and our General President Jimmy Williams, along with our members, will continue calling on the federal government to stop funding the genocide. That’s a promise.

I'm starting an ongoing thread of Israeli soldiers acting like a militia, doing as they please to Palestinians. First one: soldiers near Idhna, west of Hebron, yelling at a truck driver to get off the truck & shooting the wheel when it doesn't happen fast enough. Source Unknown.

Despite charges of genocide, mass starvation, thousands of dead children, and the near-entire destruction of Gaza, when Kamala Harris was asked if she would “do anything differently” on US policy toward Israel in its bloody war, she said no. jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

🚨Quincy & 24 other NGOs are calling on President Biden to STOP ARMING ISRAEL. A majority of bombs dropping on Gaza & killing civilians are American. So how do we stop the reckless slaughter of Palestinians? Stop arming the country bombing them It's that simple. civiliansinconflict.org/press-releases…

.Stephen Semler: "Biden, Harris, and most of the Democratic Party are trying to cast the #UnitedStates as the hopeful, impartial, and ultimately powerless mediator and not the chief enabler of the genocide in #Gaza. It’s diplomatic theater." jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

“But you realize Trump wouldn’t be any better on Gaza” — this partisan response implies that, for the Democratic Party, enabling the genocide of Palestinians is nonnegotiable. Harris’s primetime interview appeared to confirm that. My latest in Jacobin: jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

.Kamala Harris can’t credibly claim to be the candidate who'll uphold the law when she just committed to arming Israel unconditionally, which requires breaking many laws: jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

Kamala Harris’s commitment to unconditional military aid to Israel is a tacit endorsement of that country’s genocidal policy in Gaza, land grab in the West Bank, and escalation with Iran. jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

Mass expulsions, Tulkarm refugee camp. Israeli displacement of Palestinian refugees and residents intensifies in the governorates of the northern West Bank.

The Biden White House says it's working around the clock for a ceasefire while making one impossible by arming Israel unconditionally. It's diplomatic theater. Kamala Harris said to expect more of the same under her administration. My latest in Jacobin: jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

“Kamala Harris is positioning herself as the candidate who will uphold the rule of law. This is breathtakingly hypocritical: continuing to arm Israel certainly or almost certainly violates plenty of domestic and international laws.” -Stephen Semler jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

Kamala Harris says she’s committed to reaching a ceasefire deal and protecting Palestinian civilians. But neither are possible without an arms embargo on Israel, and Harris just ruled out implementing one. My latest in Jacobin: jacobin.com/2024/09/harris…

Israeli forces killed a U.S. peace activist in the occupied West Bank. Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, 26, was killed by a “deliberate shot to the head,” witnesses say. She worked with the same peace activist movement as Rachel Corrie, a U.S. citizen killed by an Israeli bulldozer in 2003.

.Secretary Antony Blinken: Do something to save lives!

The Israel Defense Forces just murdered another American. “As people were running away...a soldier fired directly at the protesters, hitting the American activist in the head” cnn.com/2024/09/06/mid…

.President Biden: "If you harm an American, we will respond." Well?
