1/5 We are extremely concerned over the fate & wellbeing of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan hospital who was detained by Israeli forces along with others during a raid on the hospital on 27 December. He must be released immediately and unconditionally.

When Americans on Christmas sing “Oh Little Town of Bethlehem”, do they realize that their tax money and elected officials are contributing towards driving Christians out of the “little town of Bethlehem”

La députée : "Dans les bidonvilles, les corps sont en putréfaction, on sent les odeurs monter" Macron : "c'est vrai ?" Le préfet : "heu... pour l'instant on n'est pas encore monté..." ➡️Combien de charniers vont être découverts quand le préfet prendra le temps de... "monter" ?

Did you know the desire to escape slavery, was once classified as a mental illness called Drapetomania in 1851. Black people were considered mentally ill for refusing to live in bondage.

Un maccarthysme à la française : la solidarité avec la Palestine est devenue un délit. L’exprimer par la parole, l’écrit ou la manifestation, est passible de convocation policière, de condamnation pénale ou d’interdiction préalable. [@Mediapart 20/04/2024] mediapart.fr/journal/france/…

🇱🇧 Il y a dix jours, le directeur de l’hôpital Dar el-Amal de Baalbek nous racontait sa vie sous les bombes, au chevet des blessés défigurés, amputés, mutilés. Malgré l’ordre d’évacuation israélien, il refusait de les abandonner. Aujourd’hui, Ali Allam a été tué par Israël. Avec @CelineMartelet et @ArthurSarradin, Ali Allam nous avait ouvert les portes de son service pédiatrique où des gamins luttaient pour survivre, montré la morgue pleine où s’entassaient les cadavres, les prématurés en couveuses qu’il ne pouvait pas transférer … Malgré les bombardements incessants tout autour, il souriait, fier de sa mission. “Nous sommes un hôpital, des soignants … pourquoi serions-nous ciblés ?” 📸 @MattKynaston

Everyone talks about the same explorers like: Columbus, Captain Cook and Marco Polo. But there's one traveler who journeyed farther than all of them combined. Meet Ibn Battuta, the greatest adventurer in human history (and his forgotten story):

If Anne Frank had lived in the digital age, would Meta have deleted her account to avoid embarrassing those carrying out a genocide? Today, we got our answer.
Instagram has suspended the account of Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Shareef, one of the last reporters in northern Gaza The Al-Jazeera journalists account that had 1.2 million followers and had garnered billions of views, was suddenly deleted by Instagram, silencing the most prominent journalist in northern Gaza during Israel’s besiegement of the territory. This comes following false claims made against the journalist by the Israeli military. Anas’s backup account is anas.jamal33 where he is still continuing to post in an attempt to break through the censorship.
