A Israeli soldier who was attached to the GHF "relief" operation, and was ordered to shoot at the crowd:

Today marks two years since I went no-contact and cut ties with my abusive family. It hasn’t been easy, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come.

Today we stood in silence at the gates of Hatzorim base, showing pilots the faces of their victims. We call on them: refuse illegal orders, stop the bombings, stop the genocide of men, women, and children. #StopTheGenocide

We are currently in a constitutional crisis. They switched the locks on the AG's office. Despite an injunction from the supreme court saying that she wasn't fired. And now the Israeli Bar Association is calling for the Justice Minister to be arrested.

@msafri.bsky.social counter-mapping is a form of geospatial mapping is that correct? as opposed to the concept of "power mapping" used by groups like @mapthepower.bsky.social which use the term to mean the construction of a sociogram. Am I understanding you correctly?

@msafri.bsky.social Hi :) is there any chance you can help me access Chapter 1 on counter-mapping from your book on Solidarity Cities?
