Palestinian journalist and author Plestia Alaqad shared a haunting video of an empty stadium, asking viewers to imagine every seat filled with a child killed in Gaza.
The video reflects the scale of Israel’s mass killing of Palestinian children, with 20,000

I'm not a historian but I am a political scientist and in my professional opinion saying Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history is less controversial than saying 2+2=4 or Victor Wembanyama is tall.

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence.
Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say.
Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

Imagine if China killed scores of unidentified people at sea claiming they were drug-runners, then set its navy on course to invade a country I think the global media would be reacting differently compared to reporting the US threat to Venezuela. BTW it's giving off big Gulf of Tonkin vibes.

DOGE shuts down having not found trillions of dollars of waste or saved any money.
They compromised the security of government systems, fired federal workers and oversaw the dismantling of USAID which has killed 600,000.
By 2030 approx 14 million people will have died.
That’s their legacy

It turns out the private companies contracted to improve the $92 million BOM website were Accenture and Deloitte. I hope this proves once and for all that private companies are ALWAYS more expensive than the government. What a total rip-off. 👎

Israel is a terrorist state. It doesn't even know the meaning of the "ceasefire". Expect this to escalate as the distractions of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year provide a distraction for the continue genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
