WEST BANK: A 16-year-old Palestinian girl was shot and killed by an Israeli sniper in Jenin.
Lujain Musleh’s father says she was shot through the forehead while looking out of the window of their home.
No other country on earth can get away with this level of barbarity.

All civilian deaths are shocking and wrong, but I can’t imagine how deep the racism of your worldview must be to write this when you’ve said nothing remotely comparable about the genocide being conducted with British weapons. 40.000 lives and counting. You really are shameless.

This weekend about 2 billion people will celebrate Christmas across the world, and the birth of their religion in Palestine. Today the only remaining 700 Christians, the descendants of the first followers of Christ, are being wiped out in Gaza and their churches bombed to pieces.

This is Nakba. Destroying Palestinian history is part of the israeli colony’s ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign. They want to take everything away from us. In Palestine. Outside of Palestine. They want to leave us with nothing.
The Israeli occupation destroys the central archive of #Gaza municipality, executing thousands of historical documents, and deliberately razing all life forms; erasing the city and its #history. It is worth noting that the archive holds #documents more than a hundred years old.

Just a reminder that you all have now witnessed murder through your phone screen everyday for the past 2 months now.
You’re watching the genocide of an entire population.
That's not normal. Don't be desensitized.
Keep talking about Palestine. Push for a permanent ceasefire.

A timely interview on the importance of standing up for principles over #Israel/#Palestine, despite the inevitable backlash if condemning #Israeli occupation, and thanks to my former publisher @louiseadler for supporting my early work on the Middle East when it would have been far easier to look away.
Here’s the book Louise is referencing, my first one in 2006, My Israel Question, that caused a storm, the Israel lobby tried to ban it and the public responded by turning it into a best-seller: myisraelquestion.com/
The decision of three actors in the Sydney Theatre Company's new production of The Seagull to wear the keffiyeh during curtain call sparked a frenzy of condemnation from members of the Jewish community. @latingle spoke to @louiseadler. #abc730
