"That many religious Jews had historically believed that they came from Palestine is tantamount to Indian, Chinese, Indonesian, Nigerian, or Malaysian Muslims claiming that they came from Arabia simply because Arabia was the birthplace of their faith." www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/how-...

“Abroad, it depicts Israelis as carefree and liberal — a fantasy Western audiences can enjoy guilt-free. Israelis are introduced as ‘one of us’; Palestinians as those who spoil the party”.

HEY friends: recently seen heaps of "disclosures" from AI companies of the energy cost per question you type into chatbots (most recently from Google)?

Presenting per-query 'efficiency' is part of big tech's efforts to hide its extremely real and happening-right-now climate impacts!

Unbelievable that there is not an external military intervention to stop this genocide. And unbelievable that not all countries and organisations have condemned this horror already.

Ethemblage is an online game developed by @leahgovia.bsky.social leahgovia.itch.io/ethemblage It's a story in which players interact with different scenarios where technologies such as acoustic monitors, drones, and GPS collars are applied by conservationists to monitor non-human species.

With increasing momentum around monitoring & evaluation for GBF reporting, this recent report is a timely reminder that more effort & financial resources should be going into supporting IP&LC led monitoring esp. of the social impacts of conservation www.forestpeoples.org/publications...

Israel’s killing of five Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza prompts global outrage and calls for accountability.

Al-Obeid was known as the ‘Pele of Palestinian football’ and was one of its brightest stars.

I have not been on here much because words fail to describe how desperate, angry and hopeless I am at the accelerating genocide in Gaza. Obviously, this state is not helpful to anyone, so I am going to try to crawl out of it. Anyway. Listen to this.

This is amongst the most impactful two minutes of broadcasting I’ve ever seen.

By Emma Murphy, International Editor, ITV News. #Gaza

More than 90 people dead everyday for nearly 2 years because of a supremacist settler colony supported by the western powers that rule this era we live in based on the values of racism, capitalism, colonialism. And the exact death toll is likely to be much, much higher.

The Gaza famine and genocide cannot become the new normal. The latest episode of The Fire These Times is now available everywhere.

⏰A reminder - just over a week left to propose panels for #POLLEN26. All the info you need is here 👇

We are receiving desperate messages of starvation from #Gaza, including from our colleagues.

Food prices have increased 40 fold.

UNRWA has enough food for the entire population for over three months, stockpiled just outside Gaza.

Lift the siege and let aid in safely and at scale.

Gaza is being deliberately starved to death in front of the whole world, and the only people being arrested over it are those who opposed the crime.

There was a time when you could describe Gaza as an "open-air prison," and people would scoff at the ludicrous hyperbole, and now we're at "Gaza is an open-air death camp" and that's just ... true.

1.5 million Gazans is 75% of the population, half of whom are children.

This is *deliberate* starvation. Just one agency - UNRWA - has stated today it has enough food stockpiled outside the border to feed the population for months.

The Israeli govt must let food and water in & stop the killing.

Feeling desperate, wondering what to do? Donate to
The Sameer Project - they are doing incredible, lifesaving and political aid work on the ground in Gaza.

No baby formula has entered Gaza for four months because of Israel’s genocidal blockades. There is nothing left to feed babies and their mothers can not produce milk as they themselves are starving. There is no defending what Israel is doing. No justification.

"Be boundless in your solidarity. Passionate in your love. Audacious in your adventures. Unforgiving in your rage."

“latest shooting of gazans seeking food”

UN rights chief says Israel’s warfare methods ‘inflicting horrifying, unconscionable suffering on Palestinians’.

BREAKING: Gaza’s civil defence agency says Israeli troops shot and killed at least 20 hungry Palestinians and wounded hundreds of others while they waited for food at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid site.
