The student protest movement against Israel's genocide, apartheid and occupation in Palestine has now spread to Sweden, as encampments started popping up yesterday in cities like Stockholm, Örebro, Göteborg and Lund. The demands range from simply urging that the universities acknowledge the ongoing atrocities to calls for cutting all ties with weapon manufacturers and other organizations or individuals with ties to the ongoing occupation and genocide.
Power to the students! Free, free Palestine!
(The picture is from the encampment going up at Stockholm University)

I'm quite frustrated with the liberal news agencies.
I went to check on the report about the UN reducing the number of reported Gazan casualties. They reduced the number by half, *half*, and yet I only see this reported in Conservative news sources.... From a UN report!
Any casualty is tragic, but the idea that the number of women and children who have died is *half* the number they previously released is a huge deal, and brings the number of casualties to be much lower than we've seen discussed in this unprecedented, highly urban war.
I complained about Conservatives courting Jews, but I must emphasize once again that this is not on Jews to be courted, it's on Liberals and the Left to court Jews, and if they lose a generation or two of Jews to the right, I will be sad but it will be obvious why...
Left, DO BETTER. Report the news even if it challenges your narrative.

Israel is deliberately destroying the entire health sector in Gaza as only 4 hospitals remain operational. "If these hospitals stop working, they will turn into mass graves, like Nasser and al-Shifa," Muhammad Zaqout, General Director of Hospitals in Gaza, told Mondoweiss.

The main United Nations agency that aids Palestinians, known as UNRWA, said on Thursday that it had temporarily closed its headquarters in East Jerusalem for the safety of its staff after parts of the compound were set on fire following weeks of attacks.
“This evening, Israeli residents set fire twice to the perimeter of the UNRWA Headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem,” said the leader of the agency, Philippe Lazzarini, on social media.

Three Israeli whistleblowers gave accounts of the treatment of Palestinians: "doctors have amputated limbs due to handcuffing injuries, allowed detainees' wounds to rot, & carried out vicious beatings."
Palestinian detainees are stripped "of anything that resembles human beings". The harassment & torture are done "out of revenge" for Oct 7.

Shireen Abu Akleh, the highly respected Al Jazeera correspondent, was shot dead by an Israeli soldier two years ago.
To this day, her niece, Lina Abu Akleh says she and her family have been unable to hold anyone accountable, and in the process they’ve witnessed the systematic killing of more journalists by the Israeli military in Gaza.
“The fact that there was no justice for Shireen has paved the way for the systematic targeting of journalists.”

Folks, if your strategy is to vote multiple times (at ~€1/pop) to try and influence the Eurovision Song Contest outcome against Israel: please don’t.
Financially rewarding the EBU will only make them look successful. You don’t buy all the beer at the fascist bar to teach them a lesson.

" #Eurovision viewing parties in #England cancelled over Israel’s participation - High-profile parties including London’s biggest viewing event called off amid ongoing offensive in #Gaza ... Viewing parties in London and Brighton have been called off, while campaigners in Bristol have called for venues continuing with Eurovision events to be picketed.
Crystal, a drag performer who had been due to host a party for 800 people in east London, said they had cancelled the event in protest at Israel’s inclusion, which they said crossed a “red line”.
"I am someone who has my whole life been concerned about #Palestinian solidarity,” Crystal said. “But like many of us I have been more and more energised by what we’ve seen over the last few months.”

I'm a huge fan of the Eurovision Song Contest, but this year I'm boycotting Eurovision.
Eurovision has always been political. Its purpose is political by seeking to unite Europe with the power of love of music over the power of hate and war.
In previous years, I celebrated the overt shows of support for Ukraine, LGBTQIA people, and other oppressed people.
But this year, the organisers of the Eurovision Song Contest have chosen ignore calls for BDS and allowed Israel to enter, and they have chosen to ban other participants from showing even support of the people of Palestine.
If you think the Eurovision Song Contest has chosen an appalling stance on this issue, you're not alone. The Israel singer was booed off stage, and there have been a record number of protests against Eurovision inside the auditorium, outside this year's venue in Malmö, and in many participating countries around the world.

"Nearly 100% of Campus Gaza Protests Have Been Peaceful"
Of 553 US campus protests, 97% remained non-violent.
Of the 3%, half were from clashes with police sent in to clear peaceful protests.

US finds Israel’s use of weapons in Gaza ‘inconsistent’ with human rights law, but will not cut flow of arms | Biden administration | The Guardian

"State department also says not enough concrete evidence to link specific US-supplied weapons to violations "
Not enough evidence? FFS!
The report said that conclusion was based in part on the difficulty of collecting reliable information from the #war zone & the way #Hamas operates in densely populated areas. It also stressed that #Israel has begun the process of seeking accountability for possible violations of the #law, a key component in the #UnitedStates assessment about whether to provide #military aid to allies accused of #HumanRights violations.

In the admin’s most detailed assessment of #Israel’s conduct in #Gaza, #State said in a written report to #Congress that Israel “has the knowledge, experience & tools to implement best practices for mitigating #civilian harm in its #military operations.”
But it added that “the results on the ground, including high levels of civilian casualties, raise substantial questions” as to whether the #IDF are using them sufficiently.
