Today marks 78 years since the Nakba, the mass displacement of indigenous Palestinians that accompanied the establishment of Israel in 1948.
During the war that followed, around 750,000 Palestinians, the majority of the Palestinian population at the time, were forced to flee or were expelled from their towns and villages.
The event remains one of the most defining and painful chapters in Palestinian history.

EU greenlights sanctions on Israeli West Bank settlers
Long blocked by Hungary's former government, the punitive EU measures are aimed at "extremist" Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank. Israel has denounced the move as "arbitrary and political."
I get that people have the best of intentions when they try to argue that Star Trek isn't a dead franchise, but... this is a series that once had a member of a resistance group inspired by real life Palestinian resistance as a sympathetic main character. And now it's apolitical CGIslop owned by a corporation that runs a blacklist of any actor who's ever spoken in support of Palestine.
A civil war is raging in the film, television and music fields between artists opposed to the mass murder in Gaza, as well as Trump’s fascist policies, and the upper echelons of studio executives and owners.

I discovered anti-#Zionism at the University of Michigan. I'm glad it lives on there A controversial speech conveyed essential lessons for all #Jews forward.com/opinion/824062/uni…
At the U. of #Michigan’s recent commencement ceremony, history professor Derek Peterson delivered a 5-minute speech in which he celebrated all those who have fought for justice at the university, my alma mater. Invoking our legendary fight song, he asked the crowd to “sing” for suffragist Sarah Burger, who battled to get #women admitted as students; for Moritz Levi, UM's first #Jewish professor; for all the students who fought for #RacialJustice at #UM as part of the Black Action Movement; and for the “pro-#Palestinian student activists, who have over these past two years opened our hearts to the injustice and inhumanity of #Israel’s war in #Gaza.”
#Iran Says It Is Discussing Plan With #US to End Hostilities

“I was beaten by four people, repeatedly punched, kicked, spat on and accused of being a terrorist.”
British Gaza flotilla activists Alice Chapman and Zak Khan said they required hospital care after being abducted and abused by Israeli occupation forces who attacked and intercepted their aid ships in international waters near Crete.
Khan testified that he was shot in the leg with a rubber bullet, violently assaulted, and told by doctors he came close to a broken jaw. He also said he developed a chest infection due to the conditions aboard the detention vessel.
Chapman said she was punched by an Israeli soldier, while both described detainees being forced to sleep either inside shipping containers or outdoors, exposed to extreme cold at night and intense heat during the day, while being denied water and having stun grenades used to disrupt their sleep.
Khan further reported that some detainees were placed in solitary confinement, while others were taken away and beaten. He described one activist being “beaten very badly” inside a cont

Khan further reported that some detainees were placed in solitary confinement, while others were taken away and beaten. He described one activist being “beaten very badly” inside a container after shouting “free Palestine,” with others only able to hear the assault.
They said dozens of detainees required medical treatment upon release, as Israeli occupation forces seized multiple vessels from the flotilla attempting to break the blockade on Gaza, with organizers condemning the attack as unlawful and an act of piracy.

Yes, because in the twisted mind of a genocidal Zionist, opposing genocide is the same as being in the KKK.
This is the same ban-evading Zionist hasbara reply-then-block account that’s been harassing me and others who oppose Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. Please report and block as you see fit:
A 14-year-old Palestinian student, Aws al-Naasan, was shot in the head and killed outside his school in al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, after an Israeli reservist took position on a nearby hillside and opened fire toward the school.
The Guardian reports testimonies from teachers and students describing scenes of terror, with children hiding in stairwells as staff rushed to secure the building.
Teachers shouted warnings “go inside, he will kill you”, as gunfire rang out. Aws collapsed instantly, and his classmates carried his bleeding body along the school wall, leaving a trail of blood, but he died before reaching medical care. Minutes later, the same attacker shot and killed 36-year-old Jihad Abu Naim, whose wife is pregnant with their first child.
The killings unfolded amid a surge in Israeli settler violence targeting schools and students across the occupied West Bank. Residents say al-Mughayyir has long been subjected to repeated attacks, with Aws already having lost his father in a previous set

The killings unfolded amid a surge in Israeli settler violence targeting schools and students across the occupied West Bank. Residents say al-Mughayyir has long been subjected to repeated attacks, with Aws already having lost his father in a previous settler shooting.
After the latest killings, classes were suspended as families weighed sending children back to school against fears for their lives. “We want to go back, but our families are afraid,” one student said.
Since #Israel's new war on #Iran and #Lebanon started, the siege on #Gaza has tightened again. Not nearly enough food is being allowed in. No one is being allowed out. Malnutrition -- especially among children -- is growing rapidly.
At the same time, Gaza isn't in the headlines -- what's happening in the Gulf and in Lebanon is more exciting. So public interest in Gaza is diminishing.
Food can get into Lebanon. It can get into Iran. It can't get into Gaza. Gaza needs YOUR help.

Dr. Salman Khan, an infectious disease specialist, traveled to Gaza on a three-week medical mission in February 2026. He found infectious diseases running rampant, all directly due to Israel's siege and genocide.

Both the United States and Israel were founded and exist on land taken during ongoing genocides. Settler colonialism drives these genocides, and both nations share an ideology that justifies the theft and rationalizes the killing.

This is the reality for Palestinians living in Gaza.
We can’t take away the pain, but we can ease some of the burden. Supporting Leena and her family financially through her fiancé, @mohanad22’s, campaign can ease a small part of their struggle right now.

Dans la « zone tampon » du sud du Liban, un anéantissement à huis clos
Par Leila Aad et Zeina Kovacs
Malgré le cessez-le-feu entre Israël et le Liban, l’armée israélienne a unilatéralement décrété une « zone de sécurité », interdite aux journalistes et à l’armée libanaise. Sans témoin, elle s’attelle à y raser les villages chiites de la carte.

Condemning genocidists isn’t discrimination. Israel’s apartheid regime is discrimination.
Israelis are settler colonialists. That’s not a slur, it’s a fact.
No one is committing genocide against Israelis. The only people committing genocide are the Israelis.
