A 16 year old American citizen has spent the last 9 months in an Israel prison.

Tonight he’s finally free.

Mohammed Ibrahim is a Palestinian-American from Florida.

He was arrested during an Israeli raid of his family’s home in the West Bank.

He had double digit weight loss & developed scabies

This is unbecoming of a mayor to be honest. He should not be doing photo ops with “Catholic” Charities he should be doing actual New York mayor elect work like further militarizing the police in Queen or getting blackmailed by Tom Homan on live tv
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

The IDF didn't just strike near a hospital. They systematically targeted and destroyed the equipment at the only cancer treatment facility in all of Gaza.

Let's be perfectly clear about the depths of evil we are witnessing. This is your US tax dollars at work.

Two men who occupy prominent positions in Canada’s media landscape just travelled to Israel, where they received a briefing from the Israeli government.

Yeah. What are journalism ethics anyway?

Those men were TVO’s Steve Paikin and Global News’ Ben Mulroney:

“Electing and voting for Donald Trump made things worse.”

Children's hospital chaplain Ayman Soliman who was detained by ICE agents this past summer discussed how Muslims were wrong to vote for Trump thinking he was the lesser evil.

It’s raining again in #Gaza. Winter’s harsh conditions combined with destruction and displacement are increasing the risk of infections and diseases.

This can be prevented by an unimpeded flow of humanitarian aid, including medical and shelter supplies.

A Green New Deal and aggressive climate action are essential for our future — I promise to fight for both when I’m in Congress and also on the campaign trail.

So Jizzrael was taking hostages in their 1000s without charge or trial 35 years ago?

But we were told by white west media that white jizzraeli hostages were the only ones to care about 2 years ago & every day since.....🤡

Every z1o accusation is a cast iron confession....all day long.

VOICES FOR GAZA brought together Palestinian writers, activists, & their allies. Before hundreds, the speakers demonstrated one of the most important values that can sustain us in a time of seemingly unending mourning, resistance, and struggle: solidarity. In this post, we hear from Hala Alyan.

Past is prologue.

In 1933, during the Great Depression, a group of wealthy businessmen tried to overthrow the US government and install a fascist dictator to protect their own interests.

And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.

This is not a history lesson, it’s a warning.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

The UN Security Council has approved the US resolution to create a new, internationally managed occupation of Gaza.

It rewards Israel with greater control and condemns Palestinians to further displacement.

Shameful.

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

The irony of the American economy being dictated by the whims of Donald Trump is that he'll have no one else to blame when it all crumbles.

This will be his undoing.

More impunity for the elite, courtesy of the Trump regime.
There's a law on the books to make corporations pay taxes on the huge profits they report to shareholders.

The Trump admin has quietly decided not to enforce it.

This de facto corporate tax break will add hundreds of billions to the deficit.

Why is no one talking about this?
