Israel allowing “a few trucks of food to enter Gaza” isn’t a U-turn. It’s a tactic to get people to stop saying you’ve completely shut down aid from coming in. Aid groups have said Gaza needs at least 500 trucks a day.
New York Times: For months, Israel has tried to pressure Hamas by both threatening a major new ground offensive in Gaza and simultaneously cutting off aid to the territory.
On Monday, Israel made a U-turn on aid, allowing a few trucks of food to enter Gaza. And despite escalating its rhetoric and its airstrikes on Gaza in recent days, the Israeli military had yet to begin the long-awaited major advance that would involve thousands of ground troops.
The lack of strategic clarity reflects disagreements within its leadership about
Israel's national priorities.

Just try to process this.
The health ministry has released a new 1,000-page document with the names, ages and other info, of 52,959 Palestinians killed in Gaza. 

For the first 100 pages (over 5,000 names), the age is listed at 5 years or younger. 

The first 18 pages the age is listed as 0 (under 1 year)

They are literally forcing all of Gazans into a concentration camp in what used to be Rafah in southern Gaza, after destroying it. They are now planning on annihilating Khan Younis. There’s never been a genocide so thoroughly documented as it was live-streamed straight to our phones.

There's a strong probability that in the future, long after he ceases to be PM maybe, Starmer will condemn the genocide in Gaza in no uncertain terms and try and make out this is what he's said all along. Unfortunately...people have memories.

NEW footage of Mahmoud Khalil's arrest shows the Trump admin is lying. First they said they had a warrant. Then they admitted they didn't—saying they didn't *need* one, because Mahmoud wasn't cooperating & was going to flee. They said he was a "flight risk." But video shows that's not true either.

If you don't want to be compared to the Gestapo, one neat trick is to not engage in a campaign of terror around the country wherein you kidnap people off the streets to slave dungeons in accommodation of an autocratic fascist and his nationalist movement's desire for racial purity.

I'm not sure what Democrats expected to happen here (other than that they'd be on the other end of the hammer) when they helped codify into law the concept that anti-Zionism was antisemitism. Who signed off on that and didn't think it would be used as a weapon to go after groups that are disliked?

Gaza ceasefire talks continue as Israel carries out fresh wave of strikes
Netanyahu signals openness to deal but lays out conditions while territory’s hospitals ‘overwhelmed’ with casualties • Middle East crisis – latest updates Ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas have been continuing in Qatar for a second day as Israeli warplanes and artillery launched a fresh wave of strikes across Gaza, killing at least 103 people, according to health officials in the Palestinian territory. The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, signalled on Sunday that Israel was open to a deal with Hamas that would include “ending the fighting” in Gaza, but laid out conditions that have been repeatedly refused by the militant Islamist organisation.

Here’s the thing. Systemic solutions are necessary for systemic problems— the solution to starvation in Gaza is for Israel to lift the siege. But in the absence of that, people need money to get food. They need to pay rent. And for you to sit in your cushy homes & wag fingers is horrible & cruel 1/

please do your part and raise your voices, get in the way however you can about what is taking place right now in Gaza. the dearth of posting on this platform is absurd from Translating Falasteen (Palestine) on x:

But these zones have been declared “red,” preventing civil defense crews from mobilizing. 

Without immediate international coordination, teams are unable to access these areas to save lives. The Civil Defense is calling on the International Red Cross and all humanitarian organizations to act now and secure entry for rescue missions before more lives are lost.
