If you don’t have the time to read through all of this (and can’t/won’t make the time), then at least join us in the call to action on the very last tweet of this thread. Who can we contact? Who will save these kids? #KeepEyesOnSudan

@SecDef @SecBlinken Uphold @DeptofDefense #leahylaw now! #Shifa alone = credible proof of #GVHR defined by #US as “torture, extrajudicial killing, enforced disappearance.” #Israel’s lack of response to US’s investigation requests = proof of NO remediation attempts
🚨 Breaking: Israeli forces have executed 50 men in and around Al-Shifa Hospital and have kidnapped 180

Israel literally tortured United Nations staff to get them to make false statements against UNRWA. They. Tortured. UN. Staff. If we had anything remotely like objective news reporting in the western press, this would be the top story everywhere for days.

America is absolutely headed toward open revolt in the next 1-5 years simply because the bipartisan establishment is making conditions increasingly untenable. The growing desperation of the populace will be what breaks the dam.

UNRWA says that Israel tortured some of its employees "to make false statements against the Agency, including that the Agency has affiliations with Hamas and that UNRWA staff members took part in the 7 October 2023 atrocities.” timesofisrael.com/liveblog_e…

You think folks are being hyperbolic when they say Gaza is a preview of what’s to come for us here, next thing you know they’ve installed militarized checkpoints at the NYC subway

The President sends bombs that kill Palestinians and now the airdropped aid kills Palestinians as well. This is atrocious and it has to stop.

US Airman Aaron Bushnell did not kill himself to protest some other country's war The US Department of Defense has compelled the participation of Air Force members like Bushnell in Israel's Gaza genocide Their orders to deploy to Israel read "mandatory"

The US killed Aaron Bushnell when it decided to take his commitment to protect the United States and instead force him to be party to genocide—to help murder defenceless women and children. Any self-respecting American ‘patriot’ should demand an end to US support of genocide.

A leader of the Israeli settler movement talks about how she has to "brainwash" people "all the time" because "this is the only way to continue Zionism." She says she wants Israel to expand to Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, etc. and she doesn't see anything extreme about it.

The Biden Admin is 100% sponsoring genocide each time it gives money & weapons to Israel. Let’s be clear.

These are the 210 members of Congress who preemptively objected to the ICJ's ruling. These genociders should never be re-elected.
Here are the 148 Republicans & 62 Democrats who today expressed their "disgust" at South Africa’s suit accusing Israel of genocide. They also praised WH spokesperson John Kirby calling the case "meritless, counterproductive, and completely without basis in fact whatsoever."

I compiled a list of 20 questions that we should all be asking every US politician who takes bribes from AIPAC to support Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. Save these questions. Send them to your politicians. Demand answers. Don't be silent. 1. What measures are being taken to guarantee that Palestinian civilians, especially children, are protected from violence and conflict, in accordance with international humanitarian law? 2. How do you justify Israel's continued expansion of settlements in the West Bank in light of international law, which prohibits the transfer of an occupying power's population into occupied territories? 3. What measures are being taken to secure freedom of press and safety for journalists in Palestinian territories, given the violence against media personnel at the hands of Israel? 4. In light of the conditions in Gaza, what steps are being taken to make sure that humanitarian aid and essential supplies are consistently available to Palestinians without interference from Israel? 5. Can you explain the legal and ethical justifications for Israel's administrative detentions, which often hold Palestinians without charge or trial? 6. What steps are you taking to address the excessive use of force by Israeli forces against Palestinian protesters? 7. How do you justify the unequal water distribution in Israel affecting Palestinian communities? 8. What are your views on the numerous UN resolutions condemning Israeli actions in Palestinian territories, and do you think it's appropriate to ignore international concerns? 9. How do you justify the Israeli government's blockade of Gaza in terms of its impact on the civilian population, especially considering the reports of severe shortages of medical supplies and basic necessities? 10. What is your stance on the displacement of Palestinian families by the Israeli government due to home demolitions, and how does it align with international human rights laws? 11. How do you plan to ensure accountability for Israel's human rights violations in the occupied Palestinian territories? 12. What measures are being taken to guarantee that Palestinian detainees in Israel, especially minors, are treated in accordance with international human rights standards? 13. What steps are being taken to address the impact of military checkpoints on the daily lives of Palestinians, including their access to work, education, and healthcare? 14. How do you justify the Israeli government's use of tear gas and rubber bullets in densely populated civilian areas, especially where children are present? 15. What is your stance on the right of return for Palestinian refugees as stipulated in UN resolutions, and do you think it's appropriate to ignore UN resolutions? 16. In the context of peace negotiations, how do you view the future of East Jerusalem, especially regarding its status and the rights of its Palestinian residents? 17. What is your position on the frequent closures of Palestinian educational institutions by Israeli authorities, and how does this align with your views on education? 18. What is your response to the Israeli government's restrictions on Palestinian cultural events and expressions? 19. How do you justify Israel's differential treatment at border crossings for people of Palestinian descent, including those holding foreign passports? 20. How do you justify the Israeli government's significant differences in legal systems and processes for Israelis and Palestinians?

YOU ARE COMPLICIT IN GENOCIDE, @RepBethVanDuyne I’m following South Africa’s damning ICJ case against Israel. This is GENOCIDE. While you've dragged your feet on calling for a ceasefire, Israel has killed 30,000+ Palestinians with my tax dollars. PERMANENT ceasefire now!
