100+ PORTS. WORLDWIDE. NO MORE WEAPONS. On October 30th, dockworkers, seafarers, students and communities in more than 100 ports around the world are standing together to say one thing: NO MORE WEAPONS. War doesnโ€™t run itself. It runs on our hands loading the cargo, and on our silence when blockades are enforced. Governments and corporations that profit from it have counted on both for too long. From now on, they get neither. NO TO THE WAR MACHINERY. We take the ports. We take the streets. We shut it down. Oct 30th Action map link: gsumud.link/OCT30

Genocide is still on. Principled action - from states, companies, institutions and people - is needed to stop it. Worldwide strike- Oct 30.

โ€œIsraelis are described as โ€œchildrenโ€ and โ€œcivilians,โ€ while Palestinians are โ€œpeople under 18โ€ and โ€œcollateral damageโ€; Israelis are killed; Palestinians dieโ€ For our next Tech for Palestine Book Club, weโ€™ll be discussing *Donโ€™t Say Palestine* by Dr. Assal Rad, a work of media criticism examining the coverage of Palestine and Gaza by major Western news institutions. Rad documents patterns in the language used by outlets including CNN, the Associated Press, the BBC, and *The New York Times*, exposing the double-standards and the complicity of the Western media in shaping how the world views the ongoing catastrophe and systematic oppression in Occupied Palestine. Donโ€™t miss out on this important conversation. Registration link in bio.

The UN should be disbanded. Today was the final nail in the coffin for any sort of legitimacy for that body if no one, not one international delegate from any country, was able to arrest a genocider war criminal on the dais and send it directly to pre-trial dungeons. We're done

Things feel so bleak lately. Everyoneโ€™s discussing celebrities while Palestine falls into the backdrop. My village, Beit Iksa, is being taken over by settlers in real time, and it doesnโ€™t even register in the psyche of so many Palestine supporters in the West.

I call on @yuval_abraham and his colleagues to immediately release "NAZA" online for free for the whole world. I understand that this will exclude it from the Oscars and other awards, but if it's so urgent to help stop the genocide, that's the only moral thing they can do, especially as Israelis. Release NAZA online now!

@AliAbunimahSep 15
As @mekomit knows, the easy way for everyone in "Israel" and all over the world to see "NAZA" is for it to be released immediately online. But there's a "problem" with that: Releasing it free for the whole world to see would disqualify it from prestigious awards like the Oscars which don't allow this. I guess it's not so urgent to "open people's eyes" after all...

Dr. Amin's family learned today that her hearing has been postponed for TWO MONTHS, leaving her to rot in Damon prison, one of the network of torture camps in the settler colony known as Israel, for a Facebook post ostensibly critical of the occupation.

We are deeply disturbed by reports of the arrest of Dr Dima Mohammed Amin, a specialist in obstetrics and gynaecology, from her home in the West Bank, Palestine. Dr Dima is the latest victim in Israel's systematic campaign of hunting down and detaining Palestinian medics. She joins Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, Dr Iyad Al-Rantisi, Dr Mohammed Obeid and scores of others in arbitrary Israeli detention. They have not been charged with any offence; they were simply treating patients. That is not a crime. We demand the immediate and unconditional release of all healthcare workers arbitrarily detained by Israeli forces.

The insistence of cable news to focus so intently on Hasan Piker yet never interview him or ask him for comment is a fascinating rejection of a century of journalistic norms. Iโ€™ve never seen a person be covered so relentlesslyโ€”including even Osama bin Ladenโ€”without any effort to interview him. Declining to take that basic journalistic step effectively means folks like @DanaBashCNN & @jaketapper are forfeiting their claim to even be doing journalism. They donโ€™t even do the standard throwaway line at the end saying, โ€œWe reached out to Mr Piker for comment and he saidโ€ฆโ€ Genuinely bizarre from two people who for a long time prided themselves on being professional journalists.
