In these dark moments, I’m reminded of these words by Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish

In southern Lebanon we see quite clearly the Israeli-US playbook for the future of Gaza and elsewhere: genocidal destruction of entire towns or cities, and no reconstruction for the survivors -enforced by literally blowing up construction vehicles if needed.

that’s enough internet for today

This is a *very good* article that gives a great, accessible breakdown of what’s at stake. The NYPD and its surveillance structure - overseen by rabidly pro-Israel Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who Mamdani has praised and said will remain - was at the heart of the state violence deployed against anti-genocide protestors, especially students and Muslims. Islamophobia - which the campaign made a point to speak out about in the last stretch - is structural, it’s not simply slurs and colloquial indignities. It is state violence. wired.com/story/welcome-to-m…

can we bring the Tehran Times here

routine reminder that contemporary settlers are an extension of Israeli state violence and Zionist expansionism and not a fringe element of Israeli society comprised of “crazies” - they are the outcome of the exact ideological foundations of Israel and its society.

To be clear, this is extremely - and expectedly - racist. There is no other way this should be talked about.

He seems happy.

big night for mehmood mamdani fans (to think about good Muslim/bad Muslim)

ackman rn

How Hezbollah's TV station al-Manar covered Zohran Mamdani's all-but-certain election victory this afternoon.

YouTube deleted all my coverage of Israeli soldiers shooting civilians, including children targeted on a live stream, along with my entire account. No community guidelines violated & 3 separate excuses given to me. Then Google deleted my email & won’t respond to appeals.

I, too, am curious!

Dick ‘Butcher of Iraq’ Cheney dead, NYC sees the light of Shia Islam and it’s only Tuesday.

Can we support a Palestinian journalist in Gaza, the brother of Hossam Shabat? As Palestinians are trying to rebuild their lives, however much they can, the costs still remain extremely high. Wissam has 195 of 200 needed donors! Let’s help him get to 200. chuffed.org/project/help-wis…

also ‘your dog being kicked’ ??????? Baby most of our people run awaaay from dogs 😭

I know this woman is pathetic, inconsequential and we all just gawk at the spectacle she’s creating — but that she can continue to incite violence so openly against Muslims and express the most unhinged racist rhetoric against us and our communities, without any media or political discourse, speaks to the level of dehumanization that remains normalized and allowed against Muslims (who comprise of several ethnic communities). This is, of course, an extreme example of it because it is in every nook and cranny of this country.
