What happens in Gaza cannot be left to memory alone. That's why we built the Gaza Genocide Center, a permanent record that outlasts the erasure of genocide. Here's who we are. 🧵

States DON'T have rights. PEOPLE DO. "...that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights" Rights belong to people, not to organized structures through which people exercise power!

The War That Was Always Coming

This morning, Israel launched what it called a “preemptive strike” on Iran.

Jehad Abusalim @jehadabusalim.bsky.social · 28/02/2026

36 children were killed in an Israeli strike on a girls’ elementary school in Hormozgan province, Iran. The same doctrine that bombed schools in Gaza is now bombing schools in Iran.

Israel debates a death penalty bill for Palestinian prisoners, but as Abdel Nasser Ferwana shows, executions have been routine for decades. The bill would simply formalize what already exists: an old policy of killing prisoners outside any legal framework www.palestine-studies.org/en/node/1658...

‘Aboud is a West Bank village that has been sealed off in all four directions by Israeli settlements, gates, and outposts, turning daily life into a struggle for movement, land, and survival. As Uday al-Barghouthi writes, this is displacement by design. www.palestine-studies.org/en/node/1658...

Gaza saw its first major rainfall of the season today. Within minutes, people were submerged and tents holding families and children flooded. This is slow death. There is no justification for why proper shelter that can withstand the elements is not being allowed in.
