I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

A professor at Harvard released a study that indicates that the death toll on Gaza is close to 400,000 people.
Incredible. Just insane.
And the USA enabled and sponsored every single death.
One of the most disgusting things to happen in my lifetime.

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

The president had a MRI but won't say why.
He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.
He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.
He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.
How is any of this ok?

Mamdani nails Cuomo on being backed by Bill Ackman, which alone should be enough to disqualify Cuomo with anybody Black. Ackman is the DEI-hating, hyper-Zionist Twitter troll billionaire who bullied Claudine Gay out of the Harvard presidency on some BS when his own wife was accused of plagiarism.

If not morally shocked, are you not at least insulted?
Israel bombs a hospital. Kills several people, including a journalist.
Rescuers & journalists rush to the scene. And then Israel bombs them. On live TV.
And then Israel tells you they never target civilians, and were just trying to hit a camera.

Imagine you're a single parent because your partner was bombed and your son tries to help out by looking for food since your whole family is starving and then he goes missing so now you have to go to the morgue every day to see if his body is there
These five Palestinian boys have gone missing while searching for aid in Gaza, according to Defense for Children International - Palestine.
Their families have searched hospitals and morgues for their sons to no avail.
They fear their sons have been abducted and disappeared by Israeli forces.
