Morehouse Students Show Solidarity With Gaza During #Biden Commencement Speech
"It is my stance as a #Morehouse man, nay as a human being, to call for an immediate and permanent cease-fire in the #Gaza Strip," said valedictorian DeAngelo Fletcher.
Robbie Sebel, academic in International Law at the Israeli Hebrew University, based in West Jerusalem is on 'Inside Story' (Al Jazeera).
Absolutely mind boggling wilful denial of the overwhelming evidence of Israeli war crimes and genocide in #Gaza. He'd better hope the programme isn't being viewed in The Hague.
"The #Israeli#Lavender system, supported by artificial intelligence, identifies Palestinians by tracking their communications via WhatsApp or the groups they join."
According to the UN, the number of Palestinian #refugees, who were expelled from Palestinian villages and cities during the #Nakba to Gaza, is approximately 1.4 million out of a total population of over 2 million, constituting two-thirds of the population in the besieged enclave, which has been suffering a new Israeli Nakba for the past seven months.
Rajha Abu Khalifa is one of many refugees in Gaza, who are older than Israel.
Again, about 800,000 people, half of #Rafah's population, are forced to flee due to the Israeli invasion.
The claim that civilians in Gaza can go to safe areas is false
Humanitarian organizations no longer have resources such as food and essential items to prepare
The time has come to agree on a ceasefire and any further escalation will cause more suffering to civilians.
Students are making history. All of us should join them

We Risked Our Lives to Treat Patients in Gaza. Now President Biden Must Act to Save Lives
As I think about my colleagues who put their lives at stake to save #Palestinians wounded in #Gaza, the question I must ask is: when will President #Biden force the #Israeli government to stop this slaughter?
"It's our duty to fight back," said Rep. Summer#Lee, arguing that no super PAC "should be able to drop millions to usurp the conversation for their agenda."
"The good news is—actions like this by the #USA or #European countries taken under pressure from the pro-Israeli lobby or #Israel itself smell of sheer panic and desperation," the renowned author said.
