Bernie's statement opens with this: "Hamas, a terrorist organization, began this war with its brutal attack on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 innocent people and took 250 hostages. Israel, as any other country, had a right to defend itself from Hamas." His statements make zero mention of the decades of Israeli occupation, siege, massacres, and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians that preceded Oct. 7th. His claim about "1,200 innocent people" killed on Oct. 7th is doubly false: several hundred of those people were not innocent civilians; they were soldiers enforcing the siege of the Gaza concentration camp. Moreover, not all were killed Palestinian militants: some were killed by Israel's enactment of the Hannibal Directive. Only by erasing and whitewashing Israel's barbaric occupation of Palestinians can you claim, as Bernie does, that Hamas "began this war" and that Israel has "a right to defend itself from Hamas" by bombing Gaza. It took Bernie way too long to acknowledge that this is genocide. While I appreciate some of his efforts to challenge it, it's unfortunate that he still parrots some of the Israeli propaganda used to wage it.

If you consider Hamas a terrorist group because it holds 48 “hostages,” what do you call Israel which holds over 10,000 Palestinian hostages?!

Hannah Einbinder is a real one.

“It is clear there is an intent to destroy the Palestinians in Gaza through acts that meet the criteria set forth in the Genocide Convention.” UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry's report shows #Israel has committed #genocide in #Gaza. ohchr.org/sites/default/file…

Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, UN commission of inquiry says: "A new report says there are reasonable grounds to conclude that four of the five genocidal acts defined under international law have been carried out" bbc.com/news/articles/c8641w…

So, we can finally say the obvious in Germany without being called antisemitic?

UN says it's genocide. HRC says it's genocide. PVA says it's genocide. ICJ says it's genocide. ICC says it's genocide. Anyone who knows anything about genocide says it's genocide. Everyone is lying except Israel who are committing genocide and ethnic cleansing.

Israel killed 31 journalists in a single day

This is a crazy story. A journalist with BBC Verify fact-checking outfit challenged the company’s smears of murdered Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al Sharif and was fired for it. deadline.com/2025/09/bbc-moh…

Starmer surrounding himself with a phalanx of yet more genocide apologists: Starmer appoints pro-Israel lobbyist as his parliamentary private secretary

This is why they were killing journalists all along. This is what they were working towards as they methodically murdered the witnesses while some of the most famous reporters and anchors in the world remained silent.

This is not an "attack". This is not an "invasion". There is no "war". Israel is annihilating Gaza for the purpose of annihilating Gaza. This annihilation reflects the will of the great majority of Israeli Jews. Genocide by acquiescence as well as by participation. Genocide.

Today, the UN Independent Commission of Inquiry issued its detailed report of findings concluding that the Israeli regime has committed and is continuing to commit genocide in Palestine. There has never been a clearer case of genocide, and never a more complete global consensus on that finding. And yet, the world refuses to act. If the UNGA does not take action now, under Uniting for peace, to deploy a protection force & sanction Israel, it will fade into irrelevance. What are you waiting for? ohchr.org/sites/default/file… ohchr.org/sites/default/file…

It is over for the genocide deniers. Even the BBC is now splashing on the UN commission of inquiry concluding that Israel has committed genocide. Those who supported Israel's onslaught: You backed a genocide. You will never scrub the shame away.

This indicts the US gov’t, the chief supplier, backer & defender of the entity. With whom none of this would have been possible. Will any of the guilty Senators, like @SenTimKaine, still defending the entity’s “right to defend itself” against starving children, say anything???

It’s official: the United Nations Commission of Inquiry concludes Israel is committing genocide. The UN body calls on nations to stop sending weapons to Israel, ensure people within their jurisdiction aren’t aiding or inciting the genocide, and hold those who are accountable.

JUST IN: An independent inquiry by the United Nations has concluded that Israel has committed and is continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The commission found that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other top leaders have incited genocide.

Katz is making no pretence that the destruction of Gaza City is anything to do with fighting Hamas. This is clear genocidal intent, a boast about flattening a city under occupation & an unequivocal war crime. Where are sanctions, the withdrawal of ambassadors & the Hague trials?
