This is obviously an invitation to de escalate. Wonder if the security council will oblige and reaffirm their commitment to the rules based order

Trying to imagine my position requiring me to believe that the only possible explanation is that Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Doctors Without Borders, Red Cross, UN human rights agencies, UNICEF, OXFAM, Save The Children, and many others are all biased against me.

NEW: Citing my scoop on USAID officials privately telling Biden admin colleagues famine is already underway in Gaza, ⁦Joaquin Castro⁩ got ⁦Samantha Power⁩ to confirm that is her assessment (from 2:48:50 on).

Major confirmation from the US. youtube.com/live/cK_QuxWGv…

Interesting propaganda going around. The UC Berkeley Justice for Palestine Group shared the picture on the left depicting Chereminsky. It is also reported that they shared the picture on the right with bloody utensils. The Los Angeles Times notes that the picture they saw does…

This story from Berkeley is bizarre. Both Chemerinsky and Afaneh are claiming that they were targeted due to their faith, Jewish and Muslim respectively. It's not clear though if there's any evidence for either claim.

Two years apart, this guy writes op eds with virtually identical headlines slamming Amnesty International in the Telegraph and the Times. I mean if you're gonna do pro-Israel human rights bashing at least come up with two original headlines so it doesn't look boiler plate

Whenever a major human rights institution is cancelled this way, you know exactly why without knowing anything about the author or the article. It’s Palestine.

Again Biden being played. Biden vows 'ironclad' support for Israel amid Iran attack fears - almost as if Israel knew their attack on the consulate would draw in the US to reaffirm their support

Really interesting how different people are trying to spin someone's reaction to the death of their children. Some using it to make Haniyeh look cold and ruthless, others stoic and selfless

Don't you mean Israel were trying to derail the deal? 'source: Concern Hamas will derail hostage deal due to assassination in which three of Haniyeh's children and at least two grandchildren were killed' haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

Is the world expected to believe that Haniyeh's sons, along with their grandchildren, during Eid, and on the cusp of a ceasefire, all traveling in a group, were en route to a 'terror act'?

Current US foreign policy:

Able to provide billions in military aid to help conduct genocidal violence against mostly unarmed civilians in Gaza

Unable to secure funding for an allied military force fighting off a foreign invasion by well-armed soldiers
