Grandiose plans is what the Board of Peace does best. Plans however will not keep the people of #Gaza warm this winter. Nearly one year since the ceasefire was announced, almost every person in Gaza needs shelter assistance. Why? Because the Israeli Authorities continue to block much needed basic aid, part of a wider plan to keep Gaza unlivable for Palestinians. Turn words into action: open the crossings & let all basic items come in at scale + on a regular basis @BoardOfPeace

Israel declara persona non grata a @kajakallas por supuesta actitud antisemita y al día siguiente su colega la comisaria @dubravkasuica se planta en Tel Aviv e intercambia sonrisas y ningún reproche con el ministro @gidonsaar menuda muestra de "solidaridad y coordinación" en UE

Spotted at EU Commission HQ today. EU hosting a "high-level" meeting on antisemitism with a government committing atrocities that has used this term as a slur to attack EU's own member govts incl. Spain & Ireland, as well as UN & ICC, thus completely distorting its meaning.

While the EU still wavers over whether it should stop trading with Israel’s settlements or just keep issuing statements on their illegality, Israel rams through EU’s red lines on settlement expansion and displacement of Palestinians
The government is moving forward with a housing plan that aims to displace thousands of Palestinians from Bedouin communities in the E1 area. link to the report in the comments.

🧵Thread on EU trade with Israel's illegal settlements. It's been reported that the EU Commission is stalling member state calls to restrict import of settlement products by claiming that the volume is "too small". This is an absurd claim for a number of reasons:

Israel quadruples its budget for international propaganda to $730m. That’s around the same as the entire EU Commission humanitarian aid to Gaza since Oct 2023, the largest donor of such aid (~€650m). forward.com/fast-forward/821…

UNICEF is outraged by the killing of two drivers of trucks contracted by UNICEF to provide clean water to families in the Gaza Strip. The victims were killed by Israeli fire in an incident that took place early this morning at the Mansoura water filling point in northern Gaza. UNICEF extends our condolences to the families of the men killed. Full statement: unicef.link/4cVCyP9

On two occasions today, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers rammed UNIFIL vehicles with a Merkava tank, in one case causing significant damage. The soldiers had blocked a road in Bayada that is used to access UNIFIL positions.

*Belgian Minister of Defense* shares Rubio's 2015 fearmongering speech about the JCPOA as some kind of an act of providence. Can anyone update him that Trump ripped up the deal in 2018 and what followed is a consequence of that?

BREAKING! Amid widespread bombing across Arab regions, Israel approves its largest-ever colonial expansion. Under the "fog of war'', what I warned on 14 Oct 2023 is unfolding: the largest ethnic cleansing/land grab in Palestine, since the Nakba. It’s happening. Under our watch.
Replying to @EpshtainItay
BREAKING: More details come into view. #Israel’s Security Cabinet has reportedly approved 34 new settlements, further entrenching its unlawful presence deep within the occupied State of #Palestine. The secrecy surrounding the decree appears calibrated, not for domestic necessity, but to spare discomfort among allies in the region, Europe and the United States. The ICJ Advisory Opinion on the Legal Consequences of the Occupation of Palestinian Territory (2024) was unambiguous. Israel is under an obligation to bring its unlawful presence to an end, unconditionally and without delay. Third States are under a corresponding duty not to aid or assist in maintaining that situation, and to cooperate to bring it to an end. Yet the response has been one of studied inaction. The Court spoke with clarity; the world replied with silence. Israel, reading that silence for what it is, has chosen not restraint, but acceleration of its colonization efforts.

Two UNIFIL peacekeepers were tragically killed in south Lebanon today, when an explosion of unknown origin destroyed their vehicle near Bani Hayyan. A third peacekeeper was severely injured, and a fourth was also hurt.

The international acquiescence to the annihilation of Gaza emboldened Israel to implement the dreams of the radical fringe of the zionist movement.
The IDF has now struck seven bridges over the Litani river. Documenting them in this thread. @GeoConfirmed

Are European politicians who backed the Iran war starting to pay a political price? In Belgium, the leading party @de_NVA quietly softened an initial cheerleading statement by its Defence Minister @FranckenTheo on its website - but it didn’t go unnoticed. With translation:
Mooie poging van @de_NVA om het originele standpunt van Minister @FranckenTheo onder de mat te vegen. Met alle chinezen, maar niet met den dezen. De waarheid heeft haar rechten. Own your shit.

If EU countries want to prevent this, they should activate the proposal to partially suspend the Association Agreement w/ Israel, prepared last year over Gaza. More likely to have impact at the outset than after Lebanon is devastated and Israel entrenched in a maximalist course.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: The Litani River should be the border between us and Lebanon. Just as we control 55% of the Gaza Strip, we should do the same in Lebanon.

Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!
