TedCruz forgot it was #FulgencioBatista, not #FidelCastro, who tortured his father. Like #MarcoRubio and #RobertMenendez, he has pushed a false victim narrative to justify his political agenda.

Thanks for posting this article, which is excellent. I have a friend and former neighbor who is back home in that town and he described it as "3 days in a war zone".

see above post about a protest for Palestine in Umm al-Fahm (Palestinian town in state of Israel)

@adachika192 @[email protected] @[email protected]
No loss, it was fake from the start.

see article above from Quds News Network -
Internet Blackout in Gaza as Israel Targets Last Fiber Line

see above article from Times of Israel -
Hamas police says it killed 12 members of Gaza’s Israeli-backed Abu Shabab militia


@adachika192 @[email protected] @[email protected] @israel
AK - what is meant by "HP"?

See above post from Palestine Chronicle -
Officer Who Ordered Shooting of Gazans with White Flag Promoted by Israeli Army

problem is not Netanyahu, it is not Ben Gvir. it is the white supremacist mindset of Israeli public.

@DukeNukem1990
Didn't the reply post with The Conversation, plus Farhad's citation of the original Haaretz article satisfy you?
Do you really think that all of those publications and organizations are distorting something? Or, as Farhad thinks, are you just being as asshole?

@njm1314 @Bubbaonthebeach
@faab64
Maybe so, but if 2 people admitted that they were confused, there were surely more who didn't admit it.
Seems to me like the /s is worth the effort.

@adachika192 @[email protected] @[email protected] @israel
Are there any news dispatches that confirm this?
I found a Jerusalem Post article that says Hamas offered to return half of the Israeli hostages in exchange of 2-month ceasefire and resumption of aid. But I don't see anything else right now. [May 17, 21:30 Eastern Daylight Time (USA)]

Thanks for posting this. I just checked and I found that this is also available on PeerTube at: https://kolektiva.media/w/4NSzpHX93Rdvs6jMe8TDAP

That's a fantastic article, especially for people who have friends and family who are Christians. I posted it on Facebook with intro "a fitting article for Easter".
Thanks for posting it.

Mahmoud Muna on the Attack on his Bookstore
Mahmoud Muna on the Attack on his Bookstore
From #PeterBeinart substack
Video/Podcast
Feb 18, 2025
On Sunday, February 9th, Israeli police raided both branches of the East Jerusalem Educational Bookstore and arrested its owners, Mahmoud and Ahmed Muna. They were released on bail after two days in jail, but are banned from entering their stores for the next two weeks. During this difficult time, Mahmoud graciously agreed to talk with me about his experience.
To help with the legal costs Mahmoud and his family have incurred as a result of the raid, and the security they now need because of right-wing harassment, they have launched a GoFundMe Campaign.
Because of the importance of disseminating Mahmoud’s story, and his need for financial support, I’m making this video available to free as well as paid subscribers.

@adachika192
Of course, military aid to Israel couldn't be interrupted. /s

@adachika192
Very eloquent, perceptive article which captures how many supporters of Palestine feel right now, and gives a long-view perspective.
Thanks for posting it.
