Aid distribution in Gaza used as a tool of genocide

Amid the near-daily killing of aid seekers around the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) aid sites, academic Pietro Stefanini says the US and Israel are deliberately weaponising humanitarian assistance to serve military and strategic objectives, bypassing established aid channels.

“There is this weaponisation of aid distribution as a tool of genocide, which is done specifically to advance strategic war aims.”

Gaza’s remaining #hospitals operating under unimaginable conditions

They are overwhelmed, under-resourced and understaffed as medical teams continue to work around the clock to provide medical services while suffering from acute malnutrition.

They are receiving casualties on an hourly basis and are reporting a severe shortage of medical supplies, including antibiotics and anaesthetics.

At least 90 doctors and 132 nurses have been killed by Israeli forces since Israel’s war on #Gaza began.

Bit confused, what would they even do with a report of downvote? Doesn’t make sense.

Plus don’t even understand why someone cares so much about downvoting that they would message you and report it. The upvote/ downvote means seriously nothing. It’s “thin air”.

Put down your device and it has no impact on your live. Continue using Lemmy and it will have no impact on how you use Lemmy.

Eine andere Antwort auf diese Frage als "Nein" lässt sich nur dann geben, wenn man palästinensische Menschen von Geburt an als unwertes Leben betrachtet.

GPS collars used to control farm animals may soon become allowed in Sweden.

Meanwhile, GPS thingys used to control humans have been in use for quite some time. 😉

So we can look forward to that soon, both farm animals and humans will be controlled in the same way.

"American contractors guarding aid distribution sites in Gaza are using live ammunition and stun grenades as hungry Palestinians scramble for food, according to accounts and videos obtained by The Associated Press.

Two U.S. contractors, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because they were revealing their employers’ internal operations, said they were coming forward because they were disturbed by what they considered dangerous and irresponsible practices. They said the security staff hired were often unqualified, unvetted, heavily armed and seemed to have an open license to do whatever they wished.

They said their colleagues regularly lobbed stun grenades and pepper spray in the direction of the Palestinians. One contractor said bullets were fired in all directions — in the air, into the ground and at times toward the Palestinians, recalling at least one instance where he thought someone had been hit.

“There are innocent people being hurt. Badly. Needlessly,” the contractor said."

The attempts by law enforcement & governments to subvert end-to-end encryption are ongoing. The European Commission is going to spend a year thinking about their new "Roadmap for law enforcement access to data", and they are (genuinely) asking for people to join their expert group to help.

There’s roughly 565 billionaires in the United States, the most anywhere in the world. Their $ value is somewhere in the $6 trillion range.

If Uncle Sam taxed them just one penny on the dollar, the annual tax would be about $60 billion dollars.

They wouldn’t miss it.

Once a person earns $1B, then they are automatically taxed a billionaire tax $0.01.
No loopholes! They can pay other taxes too. The $0.01 tax stays.

It’s the least they can do for society. $60B a year can help so many people!

Fuck that, let's tax billionaires 90%. That's still less than the highest tax rate in US history.

Want to cut down the deficit?

Tax the churches and the billionaires.

Maybe America will wake up to that fact before I die and I'm well past middle-age.

I guess this is what happens when your platform doesn't give you a lot of room to write your posts, you're forced to come up with weird solutions.


wasn't expecting to have an ActivityPub UI dream but just woke up from a sequence in which I was able to generate a new blog post (not a note) in response to a note -- like a longform reply that automatically posted to the blog itself. thought this was neat.

so for each note, you'd have the option to reply as a note or reply as a new post.

Man I had the most craziest dream last night that came out of the blue from nowhere. Dreamt I was in the hospital for some reason.

In Japan.

And I only speak and understand maybe 5-10 words of Japanese.

It was every bit as crazy as you'd think.

I just like woke up. And I was in a hospital room. In Japan.

And there was a vending machine in the room too. (Not one of those kinky or beer vending machines, but a normal one.)

Very strange.

Πώς οι Ισραηλινοί αλλάζουν τον χάρτη της Θεσσαλονίκης

news247.gr/magazine/reportage/…

Μια συγκεκριμένη εταιρεία, εδώ και τέσσερα χρόνια αγοράζει και ανακαινίζει ολόκληρες οικοδομές, για να τις εκμεταλλευτεί κυρίως ως AirBnB.

Η εταιρεία συγκροτήθηκε το 2021 και απέκτησε νέα νομική μορφή το 2023. Μέχρι σήμερα έχει αγοράσει και ανακαινίσει άλλες 15 πολυκατοικίες και οικόπεδα στη Θεσσαλονίκη.

Η φάμπρικα των ισραηλινών projects έχει ως εξής. Ένας μεσάζοντας που γνωρίζει την αγορά ακινήτων, συστήνει ένα crowdfunding και διακινεί την πρόταση σε επενδυτές. Αν θέλεις να αγοράσεις, βάζεις κεφάλαιο στο ποτ, και έπειτα η εταιρεία διαχειρίζεται τα ακίνητα με μια ελάχιστη εγγυημένη απόδοση.

Bank-phishing: KBC.be

Hoe het in België zit weet ik niet, maar in NL: "Schade bankhelpdeskfraude in meeste gevallen NIET vergoed door bank" (security.nl/posting/894602/Sch…).

KBC biedt een verzekering tegen dat soort fraude, maar ik zou de kleine lettertjes heel goed lezen voordat u daar geld aan uitgeeft: kbc.be/particulieren/nl/verzek….

Terug naar phishing: vraag uzelf altijd als éérste af of de websitenaam (ook bekend als domeinnaam) écht van de organisatie is die in de webpagina (en vaak aan een bericht aan u) werd gesuggereerd. Hoe u websitenamen moet interpreteren beschreef ik in infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat….

De phishing-website waarvan ik hieronder screenshots toon, is waarschijnlijk van dezelfde criminelen als de Proximus.be nepsite die ik gisteren beschreef (in infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat…).

De screenshot links is gemaakt direct na openen, rechts na het drukken op "Vraag nu aan".

Of u, na invullen, met Itsme (*) moet authenticeren weet ik niet, maar als u zo'n pagina invult weten cybercriminelen veel van u en is de kans groot dat zij u gaan bellen. Zij doen zich dan voor als bankmedewerker of politieagent en vertellen bijvoorbeeld dat criminelen toegang tot uw rekening proberen te krijgen, en vragen u of u recentelijk vertrouwelijke persoons- en bank-gegevens heeft ingevuld op een website.

En dat heeft u; helaas klinkt daarom zo'n verhaal van de beller voor veel mensen geloofwaardig. En zodra nette mensen zich schuldig voelen omdat zij zich realiseren dat zij iets onverstandigs hebben gedaan, zijn zij veel gevoeliger voor manipulatie.

(*) M.b.t. Itsme, uit security.nl/posting/895012/Bel… van vandaag:
"Belgische banken waarschuwen klanten voor social engineering, waarbij oplichters transacties via online identificatie-app itsme goedgekeurd proberen te krijgen."

It astonishes me that all my UK friends, even the leftiest lefties, use WhatsApp. They seem comfortable knowing that their messages are end-to-end encrypted and are totally unbothered that Meta has their contacts and communication metadata.

Despite being deeply horrified at the west’s lurch to authoritarianism, the decision-making is primarily around personal safety, and of course difficulty of shifting the network, not about who they are supporting by being part of a particular tech ecosystem

Blue text on a bill posted on lamp post says:
"Can't afford food? Blame billionaires, not immigrants.
In 2023, grocery stores doubled their profits.
It's not because of inflation! Inflation went up only 7%, but prices went up almost 11.5%.
It would take 340 years for a grocery worker to earn what Golden Weston burns, CEO of Loblaws and no frills, profits in a year.

Does the USA Rule Israel? The Opposite? Or Full Symbiosis? #palestine #warfare #lebanon #iran
in reply to Acta Populi

That the tiny state of Israel rules USA is borderline ridiculous conspiracy propaganda

The true question is who rules the USA if not the US government? If you can provide a rational answer then by proxy they rule Israel, the UK, EU, and all their puppet satellites.

I'd say there is a federation of old industrial capital materializing as formal organization through global banks and financial institutions. As long as states have debt they will rule

In materialism the droplets making a river of history never return, flow is one way.
If capitalism fails again as in the 30s, how would they avoid rebuilding of social democracy? War?

Ibrahim Traoré has emerged as a anti-Western hero preaching self-reliance and resilience with fans across Africa and beyond.

He's won glowing admiration from people across the continent for his anti-imperialist stance. He distributed tractors and cheap fertilizer to farmers and built factories, such as a tomato-processing plant and the country’s first gold refinery.

"Yeni Despotizm" u‌zerine...

Despotizm tarih öncesine ait bir kalıntı değil, bugün aramızda dolaşan şekil değiştirmiş bir hayalet. Bülent Diken’in Yeni Despotizm adlı eseri, despotizmin antik köklerinden modern toplumlara uzanan dönüşümünü, metaforlar ve felsefi çözümlemelerle iz sürerek anlatıyor.

The only way that Jeremy Corbyn & Zarah Sultana's new party of the Left can hope to have any real impact on the next election is to also recognise that an alliance with the Green Parry, which has considerable left 'credentials' to form a Left Alliance is a good way forward.

Given the history of factionalism on the Left this may not be the easy sell one might hope it would be, but the success of Left Alliances elsewhere, hopefully will give them & the Greens pause for thought.
