ها هم النشامى قد لاحقوهم حتى جحورهم. قلنا إن الإرهابيين لن يفلتوا من العقاب، ولن يفلت أي صاحب فكر يفرق بين الأردني والأردني. رحم الله الشهداء وشفى المصابين وحفظ وطننا وشعبنا من كل شر وسوء

“Referring to the report on Gaza she recently completed, she says: "The last thing I did is the delivery of the report on Gaza, naming what's happening there as genocide."
Amazing moment. Navi Pillay has received the Nobel Peace Prize ! bbc.co.uk/news/live/ck5yng9z… We are at the Nuremberg Court; I cannot think of a stronger symbol for her Nobel prize. We are all so thrilled! This is her first reactions upon hearing the news:

Gaza is now largely out of mind for many around the world, but not if you're one of the 94 percent of Gazans who lack shelter as winter approaches. And of course the US provided weapons in ways that make us complicit in that nightmare.
Winter is approaching and 94% of Gaza’s population needs shelter. Critical aid remains blocked at crossings, and aid pipelines need reinforcement. The ceasefire opened space. We need to work together to deliver real change in people’s lives.

114 children all with single sniper shots to the head. Some as young as 5 years old. Read that again. They're "hunting" children for fun. #StopTheGame

Huge parts of the world walk out on one of the most justly hated demons on the planet -- Netanyahu -- while about a handful of countries plus small delegations from a few of the US's paid-off tiny colonies remain in an empty hall. Apt symbolism for Israel's global isolation.
Netanyahu calls the people who walked out of his speech at the UN General Assembly moral cowards.

A very wise post.
كلمة حق في الموقف الأردني: في خطابه أمام الجمعية العامة للأمم المتحدة، حمل جلالة الملك عبدالله الثاني صوت فلسطين إلى العالم بوضوح وشجاعة؛ صوت غزة المحاصرة والمنكوبة، وصوت الضفة الغربية والقدس في مواجهة الاستيطان والضم وإرهاب المستوطنين والتهجير القسري. لم يكن الخطاب مجاملة دبلوماسية، بل موقفًا سياسيًا وأخلاقيًا سمّى الجرائم بمسمياتها، وواجه ازدواجية المعايير، وذكّر العالم بأن تجويع المدنيين وتهجيرهم وحشرهم في مساحة تتقلص يومًا بعد يوم ليس دفاعًا عن النفس ولا اجراء أمني، وأن الضم الفعلي للأرض الفلسطينية جريمة لا يمكن تطبيعها أو مكافأتها بالصمت. الدبلوماسية ليست كلامًا ناعمًا؛ إنها قوة ناعمة حين تُسخَّر لكشف الحقيقة، وحماية الحقوق، ومساءلة مرتكبي الجرائم. وهذا ما يفعله الأردن: يحوّل منبره ومكانته وعلاقاته الدولية إلى قوة سياسية وأخلاقية دفاعًا عن الشعب الفلسطيني وحقه في الحرية والكرامة وتقرير المصير. من #فلسطين، كل الاحترام والتقدير للأردن، ملكًا وحكومةً وشعبًا، على هذا الموقف الأصيل والثابت. لقد مثّل جلالة الملك فلسطين وقضيتها بأبهى صورة، وأثبت مجددًا أن صوت الحق، حين يُقال بشجاعة، هو أقوى أشكال الدبلوماسية. 🇯🇴🇵🇸 #الاردن @AymanHsafadi @ForeignMinistry @QueenRania @KingAbdullahII

In this conversation, UN Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs joins me to discusses her book When the World Sleeps, which she wrote to humanize Palestinian life through real stories and demonstrate how international law directly applies to lived human reality.

Israeli officials casually discuss ethnic cleansing, speaking of Palestinians as a “surplus population” to be removed—as though the only question is where to send them. This is blatant racism. And the world is not merely watching; it is actively facilitating it. According to the report from France 24: “Israel has plans ready to remove Palestinians from the Gaza Strip but is waiting for the United States to figure out where to take them, the Israeli defence minister said Wednesday. "There is no real solution for Gaza in the end without this migration," The Israeli government "is organised and prepared to get them out – by sea, by air, by every way possible", he said. france24.com/en/middle-east/…

Israel’s pressure on the Christian presence in Jerusalem continues. Christian schools in the city are going on strike because Israel refuses to issue permits to their West Bank teachers.

And I think it it utterly ridiculous that humanity is expected to entertain the fantasies of white European people who live in the US but believe they are actually remnants of an old semitic tribe from West Asia (from an era and a kingdom archeology was never able to establish as real), which supposedly endows them with a unique perspective on human affairs and morality. Enough with this crap
I never thought I would see in my lifetime two Jewish people on @TheDailyShow talk about David becoming Goliath in the context of Israel's genocide. Bravo @PeterBeinart #JohnStewart

The Western media manufactures consent for genocide. It normalizes Israel’s decades-long military occupation and apartheid. It erases Israel’s flagrant violations of international law. It perpetuates the fallacy of Israeli victimhood. It betrays, discredits and demonizes the work of Palestinian journalists and media workers in Gaza, at least 220 of whom have been killed by Israel between Oct. 7, 2023, and August 2025. It supinely accepts draconian Israeli censorship. It acquiesces with tepid letters of protest at Israel’s refusal to allow foreign reporters in Gaza — an effort by Israel to mask its war crimes. It amplifies Israeli lies to obfuscate the truth. Words matter. Words justify actions. If there is no genocide, if Israel is defending itself in a war, the U.S. and Israel’s European allies have the right to provide tens of billions of dollars in military aid. If this is a war begun by Hamas on Oct. 7 then it is possible to lament the obliteration of Gaza and mass slaughter by Israel as a regrettable result of the Hamas attack. Slogans which call for Palestinian liberation — including “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — along with the Palestinian flag, have been criminalized. The message is clear: Jewish lives matter. Palestinian lives do not. Read my full article on Substack now at the link below.

Gaza has the highest concentration of child amputees in the world (at the peak of Israeli bombing, 10 kids were losing limbs daily), UNRWA says. And now Israel is now blocking prosthetic limbs from entering Gaza. All this has happened with US support or complicity.
🚨Aid coalition chief: Israel blocks wheelchairs, prosthetics, watermelons, and fresh produce from entering Gaza Athena Rayburn, executive director of the Association of International Development Agencies, which represents more than 100 humanitarian and development NGOs operating in the occupied Palestinian territory, detailed Israel’s sweeping restrictions on aid during a UN Security Council briefing Wednesday. 🔹Israel rejects scissors, crutches, wheelchairs and prosthetic limbs as “dual-use,” bars medical specialists and restricts engine oil so severely that its price has risen to 45 times normal levels, bringing aid operations to “an absolute breaking point,” Rayburn said. 🔹Israeli authorities have also rejected watermelon and onions under an unpublished “humanitarian policy,” deregistered more than 30 international aid groups and repeatedly moved the supposedly fixed Yellow Line, cutting access to at least 85 water points, schools and health clinics. “Humanitarian assistance, by its nature, cannot be conditioned,” Rayburn said, noting Israel was shrinking “almost daily” the physical space in Gaza where aid groups can operate.

I renew my appeal for an end to the ongoing violence against the Palestinian civilian population in the West Bank, and I urgently call on the international community to work toward advancing the two-state solution, for a just and lasting peace.

يا جماعة احنا بنتعامل مع صهاينة مجانين عنف وقتل ويتباهون بهذا علنا! رئيسة مجلس إدارة شركة «أوراكل» التنفيذية، سافرا كاتز، تتباهى علنًا بتزويد الجيش الإسرائيلي بـ«تكنولوجيا مخيفة» من أجل دعم أجندته في غزة! "إذا دخلتَ إلى موقعنا الإلكتروني من إحدى الدول العربية، فستجد أن شاشتك بالكامل قد امتلأت بالعلم الإسرائيلي، مع رسالة تقول: «نحن لا نقف مع إسرائيل فحسب، بل نقف مع موظفينا في إسرائيل، ونقف مع شعب إسرائيل، ونقف مع المؤسسة العسكرية الإسرائيلية». هناك بعض الأمور التي قمنا بها والتي، بصراحة، لا أستطيع الحديث عنها فعليًا، لأنها كانت تهدف إلى دعم أجندة الجيش الإسرائيلي. لكن فرقنا قامت بالكثير. لدينا في أوراكل بعض التقنيات المتطورة بشكل مخيف فعلًا، وأردنا التأكد من أنها متاحة لدعم هذا المجهود. دعونا نكتفي بقول ذلك، حسنًا؟ كنتُ في «الكِرياه» [مقر وزارة الدفاع والقيادة العسكرية الإسرائيلية في تل أبيب]، ودخلت والتقيت بكل من يمكنكم أن تتخيلوا أنني التقيت بهم. وفي طريقي إلى الخارج، صادفت، لا أدري، خمسة من أفراد فريقي، وكانوا جميعًا يرتدون الزي العسكري ويعملون هناك. وبصراحة، كانت تلك من أكثر اللحظات التي شعرت فيها بالفخر في حياتي.
People like this should have to spend the rest of their lives in prison.
