🚨80% of Palestinian Prisoners in Israeli Prisons Infected With Scabies, Amid Widespread Torture, Starvation and Violent Raids The Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) reported Sunday that approximately 80% of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons, including women and children, are infected with scabies, with authorities denying adequate treatment, clothing and hygiene facilities. Based on lawyers’ visits throughout October and early November, PPS documented: ▪️ Violent raids every two to three days in some prison sections, with prisoners subjected to severe beatings, attacks by police dogs, rubber-coated bullets and gas. ▪️ Broken teeth and ribs, severed hand tendons, burns and extensive bruising, with injured prisoners denied necessary surgeries and medical care. ▪️ Systematic food deprivation, with prisoners receiving severely inadequate quantities and quality of food. ▪️ Severe overcrowding, forcing prisoners to sleep on floors while guards confiscate mattresses during the day. ▪️ Women prisoners at Damon Prison suffering painful skin infections, severe itching, sleep deprivation and inadequate healthcare. Israeli prison authorities reportedly dismiss confirmed scabies infections as allergies. ▪️ October 28 raid at Naqab Prison: Israeli forces fired rubber-coated bullets and sprayed gas at prisoners, injuring three and severely beating others. Separately, Palestinian rights organization Al-Dameer warned that prisoners at Naqab Prison are being denied winter clothing despite falling temperatures, with scabies causing painful boils, blisters and skin sores. More than 9,300 Palestinians, including approximately 90 women, are currently imprisoned by Israel, according to PPS. The organization described the abuses as a systematic campaign of torture, starvation and medical neglect intended to destroy Palestinian prisoners physically and psychologically. Sources: Palestinian Prisoner’s Society and Al-Dameer, November 8, 2026.
Over 9,200 Palestinians remain in Israeli custody in 2026, facing systemic torture, medical neglect, and indefinite administrative detention without charge or trial. Read the full 2026 report at the link below: palprisoners.ps/?p=2528&lang…

NEW poll: A supermajority of Jewish Americans believe Israeli & AIPAC actions increase antisemitism. 80% say Israel’s actions in Gaza & the West Bank increase antisemitism in the US. 66% say AIPAC’s campaign spending against candidates critical of Israel increases antisemitism.

A striking stat re AIPAC performance in the midterms. In 2022, almost 70% of its funds went into races where it got the desired result. In 2024, it was 87%. In 2026, that figure is 34%. responsiblestatecraft.org/ai…

Voters have overwhelmingly rejected Hasan Piker at the ballot box, preferring instead to vote for the candidates he has endorsed and campaigned for.

It says it all when your moral compass only kicks in when some of the world’s most oppressed people fight back with a fraction of the force used against them. The past few years have exposed not just this moral bankruptcy, but the blindness to how such injustice backfires.

Forever etched in our memories. That anyone could defend this betrays their moral depravity. That anyone could see this and not say anything betrays their cowardice. That anyone could work hand in hand with the culprits and think they hold any credibility betrays their delusion.

For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026. At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day. It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime. Massacre at Minab: The School That Became a Grave dropsitenews.com/p/minab-sch… Please share this story with as many people as you can.

it’s just crazy to me when public figures are like “it’s sooo complicated, i can’t weigh in” and the average israeli public official’s twitter is like “i will send every palestinian into a slaughterhouse”

When Israel bombed al-Shifa hospital in November 2023 the denials were furious and OSINT cranks said it was Hamas because everyone knew it was a war crime and if they did it that would be bad. History will judge that the liberal order, such as it was, died in that moment
The Israelis destroyed a hospital in southern Lebanon today. They’re claiming, with zero evidence as usual, that it was a Hezbollah command center. Israel has normalized the destruction of hospitals because the world did nothing in response to Israel bombing hospitals in Gaza. Uncivilized barbarism is the norm in 2026. Shameful.

“83% of people killed in Gaza, died in their homes”
Another mass funeral in Gaza. The bodies of the Malaka, Badawi, and Rahim family, were dug out from the rubble of their homes. 83% of people killed in Gaza, died in their homes. More than 8,000 people are still missing and unaccounted for.

This might have landed better if it wasn’t posted the week a senior Israeli minister published an AI vid of him sending Palestinians on a conveyor belt into a concentration camp and then did a PowerPoint presentation on how they’ll ethnically cleanse Gaza-with 80%+ public support
Hasan Piker: “In a totally just world, I think that, regardless of your background, any kind of fucking Zionist tendency should be treated in the same way as being a fucking rabid neo-Nazi. You shouldn’t even let someone be the fucking local dogcatcher, okay, if they’ve ever exhibited any sort of positive feelings about the state of Israel. I’m so serious about this.”
