Football is about respect and fairness. Not sports-washing genocide. Italy is set to host Israel for the World Cup qualifiers while people in Gaza starve and die. Sign now to demand FIFA and UEFA ban Israel from international football! #banisrael action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-09...

Think about all those people in the West, in liberal political and media circles, on this hellsite, who insisted repeatedly for months that Hamas was the obstacle to a ceasefire deal.

Have nothing but contempt for them and never listen to them ever again.
Lapid received a call from Egypt: 'Did you know Netanyahu decided to kill his own plan?'

Apache komt vandaag op straat – amen met journalistenorganisaties VVJ, AJP en het Palestijnse Journalisten­sydicaat – uit solidariteit met de journalisten die de Israëlische regering als schietschijf gebruikt. Gisteren werd in Gaza alweer vijf journalisten vermoord.

“I’ve had enough…I’m refusing to back down.”

Texas state Rep. Nicole Collier speaks to MSNBC from the Texas State Capitol. She is stuck there after the Texas GOP required police surveillance as condition for release. She is refusing to sign a waiver for the law enforcement escort.

De Israëlische wapenindustrie is wereldleider op vlak van surveillance- en spywareproducten, die het vaak test en toepast op Palestijnen. Ook bijna de helft van alle Vlaamse politiezones kocht Israëlische spyware, blijkt uit onderzoek van Apache.

Israëlische surveillancebedrijven hebben een indrukwekkende klantenlijst: Rusland, China, de VS, Wit-Rusland en Servië – én België.

België steunt een wet die mensen op de vlucht als handelswaar beschouwt.

Gezien het beperkt aantal tekens, los ik het even zo op. Vergeef me.

A tipping point has been reached.

Gaza is now starving to death in front of the whole world.

Those who facilitated and justified this abomination were given ample warning for 21 months.

You have no excuses, and nowhere to hide: you will be held to account for what you've done.
Gaza health ministry says 33 people dead from malnutrition in last 48 hours
New figures from the Hamas-run ministry include 12 children who have died, as the UN says Israel must allow aid into Gaza.

Sartre already said this about French colonialism in Algeria: whatever the French government will do in Algeria, they will do at home one day too — see also Israel.

Dat de EU zelfs na "aanwijzingen van ernstige mensenrechtenschendingen" geen enkele maatregel treft, zegt alles. Dat is kiezen voor medeplichtigheid.

Wil de federale regering aan de juiste kant van de geschiedenis staan? Dan trekt ze nu eindelijk haar conclusies. Trek de rode lijn.

Indeed, I hope FRA is able to recognise genocides taking place in front of their eyes, especially when facilitated by the EU.

I hope it pushes for an immediate application of EU and international law to stop the genocide being committed by Israel, and suspend the EU's Association Agreement.

The world's most famous medical NGO concludes Israel is committing genocide.

It joins a consensus of genocide scholars, including in Israel, and NGOs like Amnesty International.

No politician or journalist can claim "I did not know at the time!" to evade future justice.

Steun van groen is al van bij de doorstart van von der leyen 2 een grote ontgoocheling. Alleen al haar positie tov de genocide door Israël maakt haar ongeschikt om de commissie te leiden. Dat moet gewoon een dikke vette rode lijn zijn waar geen enkele politica/us onder mag gaan.

@vrtnws.be Musk en Trump zullen verantwoordelijk zijn voor enorm veel doden, alleen al door het onderuit halen van USAID. Tel daar nog klimaatinactie bij, het kapotmaken van milieuwetgeving, recht op abortus etc. en het worden er vele meer. Stop met het normaliseren van deze massamoordenaars.

Musk said USAID was wasteful. A new review published int he Lancet estimated it saved more than 90 million lives over 20 years, and that shutting it will cause 14 million unnecessary deaths over the next five years.

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
USAID served for decades as a vehicle for both US soft power and foreign aid. Within the first days of the Trump administration, the agency was effectively closed, its staff told to go home and its funding frozen. It is impossible to understand the demise of USAID without understanding the broader contours of American governance during the early days of the second Trump administration. The agency was the victim of online conspiracy theories and suspicion of state institutions that shape Trump's populist movement, falsely accused of criminality and corruption. Its elimination violated traditional understandings of the separation of powers, testing an expansive novel theory of presidential authority. It was underpinned not just by spending changes, but by the mass purging of government officials by a entity led by Elon Musk. The end result is both to weaken US administrative capacity and its credibility on the international stage, as well leading to thousands and potentially millions of the world's most vulnerable people to face disease, disaster, and death.
