The BBC refuses to criticise Israel. This action by Israel is illegal land theft, a breach of both int'l law and the "ceasefire". None of that is mentioned in the headline. The BBC refers to it as moving a yellow line. Silence is complicity. #journalism #IsraeliTerrorism #GazaGenocide

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
