1- This year just marked the 78th anniversary of Nakba, the Catastrophe, which befell the Palestinians when about 750,000 of them were forced to leave or they fled in fear as Zionist militias carried out military operations against them with implicit orders to expel "the Arabs".

1- The whole online world is now grappling with how AI content is generated and consumed. It is incumbent upon Meta and the wider tech industry to act faster, and ideally together.

Two wrongs do not make a right. Well, unless they do as Roald Dahl warned us and both Trump and Netanyahu and MBS and … showed us. They proved their rights are just built on many wrongs.

The parents of Hassan, 16, search for him or his body in Gaza. He is one of thousands of people in Gaza whose disappearance casts their families in unceasing grief and legal limbo. Israel blockades Gaza and provides no information to the Palestinians families. www.wired.com/story/hassan...

Hassan Took a Bike Ride. Now He's One of the Thousands Missing in Gaza
In a place denied access to basic forensic technology—and where people disappear into Israeli detention—the fate of thousands remains unknown. One of them is an autistic teenager.

The Israeli government does what it does best, denying the Palestinian people their rights and strangulating international aid to them. Today Israeli bulldozers and officials started demolishing the UNRWA offices in Jerusalem and seizing the land.

“Time buries time …” one of the many gems in a treasure that Omar El Akkad sprinkles throughout his beautiful - if bleak - novel, “American War”, of a post war US that is no longer united in the final years this century. The novel presents a war whose genesis we might be watching unfold now--

To understand the predicament of the Palestinians, watch "All that is left of you" a great movie by Cherine Dabis spanning three generations from 1948 to 2022. It shows the depth of loss, anger, and how the Israeli state could continue the slow annihilation of the Palestinians.

في اللغة العربية فعل "التهجير" يعني الانتقال قسرا ومرادفاته هي: إقصاء تشريد، طرد، الخ. ولذا عندما تصر دولة عربية خليجية على إدخال تعديل على نص البيان المعد لاجتماع القمة العربي القادم، يحقّ لنا التشكك في نواياها وموقفها من سعى ترامب لفرض التطهير العرقي في غزة.
