Israeli outlet Haaretz has published an article titled “Now I Understand Why Israel Is Denying Journalists Access to the Appalling Scene in Gaza” by French historian Jean-Pierre Filiu, who spent a month in Gaza after entering with a busload of French physicians.
#israel has banned journalists from #gaza in order to hide its war crimes, making doctors the de facto western reporters on the ground. And they’re all reporting the same thing about what they are seeing.

I hate having "representatives" who support making trans people miserable and committing genocide overseas.
It fills me with so much rage having MAGA Nazi freaks be my "voice" in Congress.
Honestly, the entirety of the GOP is guilty of incitement to genocide.
Fuck the GOP to hell and back. May they get a fraction of the suffering they inflict on others. I am eager for the Washington Tribunal.
I am tempted to say a lot of angry and unwise things surrounding this subject. Here's what I will say:
I appreciate why the French and the Russian Revolutionaries treated reactionaries they way they did.
