Gaza genocide: The urgent task is not symbolic recognition but holding Israel accountable

🆘 Distress Call from Benghazi ⚠️

Two days ago, we received an SOS message from a group of women and children allegedly held in an EU-linked detention camp in Benghazi, Libya. Most of them are Eritrean. They reported daily rape and sexual violence, starvation, torture, and ransom demands.

If a government recognises Palestinian statehood then it recognises its right to exist. On that basis, that government cannot continue to fund and arm a state that is explicitly trying to destroy the newly recognised state.

Otherwise you’re just doing an actual virtue signal.

Francesca Albanese is a truth teller. She has spoken out against the genocide of Palestinian civilians as UN representative. Trump is targeting her. Canada is totally silent.
Mark Carney must be clear: either we support international law or we support gangster regimes.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
Graphs showing 25 years of budgets for the National Institute of Health, NASA, and the NSF. In all cases, the proposed budget for next year is far, far below any year of the previous quarter century.

The ICC’s chief prosecutor has lost access to his email, and his bank accounts have been frozen.

American staffers at the court have been told that if they travel to the U.S. they risk arrest.

NGOs have stopped working with the ICC, the leader of one won’t even reply to ICC emails.

Don’t look away. This is what Libya’s migrant detention facilities look like. This is what Trump is doing.

Amnesty International called Libya’s migrant detention centers a “hellscape,” where beatings and sexual violence are rampant and there are many reports of trafficking and even slavery.
