Israel literally used a tank to fire upon starving palestinians.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c74zj9kv2xjo

A local journalist and eyewitnesses said Israeli drones fired two missiles, followed shortly after by a shell from an Israeli tank positioned between 400 and 500m away from the crowd. The explosions caused many casualties.

And no one in power will give a shit. Just another fucking day here in the Empire.

Hell world

Well, Macron appointed a new prime minister. Guess which party they're not part of.

The amount of people wanting to cozy up to the Dems now is too damn high.

How NYT chooses to report on fatah/hamas agreement:

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/23/world/middleeast/fatah-hamas-china-statement.html

“What happened in China isn’t significant,” said Jehad Harb, an analyst of Palestinian affairs. “There aren’t any indications that Hamas and Fatah intend to end the split between them.”

“These statements aren’t worth the ink needed to write them,” said Abd Al-Rahman Basem al-Masri, 25, a resident of Deir al Balah in central Gaza. “We’ve seen these things before and we’ve lost hope in them.”

Great example of how media tries to control narratives.

Obviously fuck these laws. And even if these laws state that universities cannot legally divest, they should divest anyway and say 'fuck you, take me to court'--but, with that aside, what are the actual details of these laws?

I know it varies state to state, but in PA, for example, where the UPenn encampment was raided this morning, the university says "Penn remains unequivocally opposed to divestment, and it is unlawful for institutions receiving funding from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania."

From what I can tell, there's just a 2016 law that states that the government of PA essentially can't do business with entities that have divested from Israel--but how does that legally prevent the entity from actually doing so on their part?

I keep seeing this claim that "It's illegal to divest, so we as a university can't do so. Tough luck." Not only is it ethically BS, but it seems to be a straight up lie, too?

Are the western outlets taking it slower this time (or just not going to cover it)? Not much coverage of the church bombing yet.

Realistically how much more time do the Palestinians have before they starve to death without this aid?

Apparently theres an isreali leftist in their parliament?

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/8/israeli-lawmaker-blames-pogroms-against-palestinians-for-terrible-attacks

“The Israeli government, which is a fascist government, supports, encourages, and leads pogroms against the Palestinians. There is an ethnic cleansing going on. It was obvious the writing was on the wall, written in the blood of the Palestinians – and unfortunately now Israelis as well,” he added.
