Netanyahu claims he bombs hospitals because they're "Hamas command centers."

But an independent UN inquiry investigated Israeli bombings of 110 hospitals & found 0 evidence of such. Israel could not provide any such evidence either.

These are war crimes.

Israel's longest running paper, Haaretz, just confirmed that Netanyahu actively blocked every hostage deal since 10/7, Netanyahu meanwhile is openly planning to annex Gaza—& the conversation is still "why won't Hamas agree to a deal?"😐

This is how genocide perpetuates. Horrific.

Another Netanyahu war crime that won’t make any headlines.

IDF bombed & killed 4 engineers en route to repair water infrastructure in south Gaza. They coordinated with & had approval from Israeli authorities to travel. Israel killed them anyway. Horrific.

One of the most effective propaganda claims Netanyahu has disseminated is that "he'd stop bombing Gaza if only Hamas would accept releasing all hostages"—even though he rejected the UN's hostage release resolution of Israel's own proposal specifically because Hamas accepted it.

Sinwar is dead and Harris calls for an end to the siege on Gaza.

But Netanyahu's indiscriminate bombing of Gaza with plans to annex Gaza makes clear he's not interested in peace. I'd love nothing more than to be proven wrong—but I'm betting on Netanyahu not stopping.

There it is. What we’ve been warning of all along.

Israeli Defense Officials: Gov't Pushing Aside Hostage Deal, Eyeing Gaza Annexation

It was never about the hostages, it was always about illegally annexing Gaza via genocide.

As Cat 4 Hurricane Milton prepares to wreck havoc on Florida, a reminder that Gov DeSantis rejected $11B in Federal aid meant to address climate & infrastructure, & banned the phrase "climate change" from Florida laws.

Republicans are proving "Don't Look Up" was a documentary.

So now a second person has been caught trying to assassinate Donald Trump. Both used weapons that Democrats want banned, both are US citizens, both are white men—and the MAGA response is to blame Black immigrants & expand assault weapon access.🤔

But don't worry it's not a cult.

Retoot if you agree the US needs to stop arming Netanyahu to bomb Palestinian civilians.

I want to follow as many people as I can who share this belief in basic human decency and international rule of law. We must stand united for justice and on the right side of history.

I wrote about this issue here: https://www.qasimrashid.com/p/breaking-biden-sent-netanyahu-35b

A right wing Republican man who voted with Trump more than 90% of the time, voted to undermine voting rights, block gun safety legislation, and is anti-choice, got to speak at the DNC, but Palestinian Americans simply asking to be seen as human were denied a platform. How unfortunate.

You want the hostages released? Hamas agreed to Israel's ceasefire and hostage deal two months ago. Isreal then rejected its own deal. And Biden has since admitted Netanyahu lied to him about wanting to see the hostages released.

How is anyone still defending this? When will there be accountability for this genocide? We are in month 11 of this genocide. We need action. Full stop.

BREAKING: Less than 24 hours after Biden approved another $3.5B in arms to Netanyahu, Netanyahu bombed Palestinian civilians taking refuge in the Al-Tabeen School, killing at least 100 more innocent people.

It's like multiple Uvalde massacres every day, except instead of just standing by and watching the mass murderer murder children, you keep arming him to murder more children. Insanity.

BREAKING: UK to withdraw its objection to ICC’s prosecution of Netanyahu AND is again funding UNRWA—stating that Israel has provided zero evidence of UNRWA enabling terrorism.

This leaves USA alone globally in defending Netanyahu’s war crimes.

A shift is happening:
•Biden has cancelled his meeting with Netanyahu
•Harris will skip Netanyahu's speech to Congress
•Harris will meet with Netanyahu to tell him to stop bombing Palestinian civilians
•Seven major unions just sent a joint letter to Biden calling on him to "immediately halt all military aid to Israel" ahead of Netanyahu’s DC visit:
SEIU, NEA, UAW, UE, APWU, AFA, & IUPAT

Don't let up. Keep the pressure on until US stops funding genocide & starts rebuilding Palestine. Let's go.

This is beyond repugnant journalism.

Literally the day Senate GOP blocks 3 bills to protect the freedom to cross state lines for abortion care, protect doctors in states where abortion is legal from prosecution for providing services to out of state patients, & support more abortion care training—NYT publishes this propaganda piece praising GOP for becoming moderate on abortion.😐

Women and infants are literally dying due to GOP extremism, and Legacy media continues to fail us. SMH

MAGAs: We will overthrow democracy, install dictatorship, make the President a king, jail political opponents, jail journalists, deport anyone we don't like, & ban all immigration

Americans: This is reckless. Dems need to act ASAP.

Liberals: lol Congress isn't even in session. You're so dumb. Vote harder or you're a Trump supporter.

---

This has literally been my day today. I've been called dumb, stupid, & ignorant—by liberals—for demanding Dems do more than say "vote harder." smh just wild.

On Juneteenth remember that human trafficking was legal. Slavery was legal. Jim Crow was legal. US Govt paying reparations to white enslavers who lost their “property” but not to the enslaved who lost their lives, was legal.

Do not let legality be a measure of morality or justice.

And if you need another example, consider that prison slavery still IS legal and the private prison industry is a multi billion dollar industry on the backs of imprisoned enslaved people.

In Summary:

Israel: Our siege will end when Hamas accepts permanent ceasefire & releases all hostages

USA: We agree & support a binding UN resolution

UNSC: We agree & pass a binding UN resolution

Hamas: We agree & are ready to comply

Israel: This is unacceptable. We refuse!

WOW this is incredible & terrifying.

Israel spent over a decade spying on ICC prosecutors to "retroactively investigate incidents of interest to ICC to prove Israel’s legal system is accountable."

Meanwhile Israel has banned all journalists from Gaza and has killed 100+ journalists. This is totally what you do when you're not guilty of war crimes.

How much longer will the USA, UN, & the world enable this injustice?

Israel's latest attack on a displaced person's tent encampment in Rafah has killed 44 innocent Palestinians, 32 of them children
