Dockworkers' International Day of Action Seafarers’ unions join the picket lines for the major international strike across 113 ports on 5 continents. Seafarers will not risk their lives in war zones for shipowners’ profits! We don’t work for war!

Capital is dead labour, that, vampire-like, only lives by sucking living labour, and lives the more, the more labour it sucks.

People around the world are protesting the new iPhone, calling it “blood tech.” Activists are calling for a boycott, accusing the tech giant of using rare minerals mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and connected with child labor and human rights abuses.

The scale of destruction in Gaza is beyond words. As Gaza enters its fourth year of devastation, international journalists are still barred from independently entering the Strip. The world must not look away. Behind every destroyed home is a human story families, lives, and voices that deserve to be seen and heard. Be a voice for Gaza. Share its stories. Demand accountability. Do not let the world forget. #Gaza #Palestine

Released on this day in 2000, ‘The Man Who Told Everything’. Andy: “Writing this was kind of an exercise in writing about somebody else rather than about ourselves. The lyrics are about a disgraced, corrupt politician who sells his story to the papers and then buggers off.”

Ireland knows the struggles and brutality of occupation, and that’s why the Irish stand with Palestine. Free Palestine. Free the 6 Counties. 🇮🇪🇵🇸

I talk Israeli elections in my recent appearance on Zeteo.
“Nobody is running against the genocide.” @mehdirhasan and @NaomiAKlein discuss the Israeli elections and why no matter who wins the election, ending the genocide isn’t on the ballot. zeteo.com/p/brazil-israel-el…

My President, our President, the President of Ireland who speaks for Ireland. Every word spoken by @PresidentIRL rings of the truth of all of us who are honest and sincere in our belief of the importance of the UN and why the EU has plunged into crisis mode ignoring International Law aided and abetted by our own government. #TripleLock

Staggering. Believing she isn't on air she tells the truth.
Veteran Israeli actress and longtime patriot Chelli Goldenberg declared live on air: “I’m no longer proud to be Israeli.” She condemned Israel’s occupation and settler violence, then abruptly ended the interview upon realizing she was live—only to return and apologize.

Crazy to think that you can literally commit a genocide, get a top position at the UN, and then go on to teach as a faculty member at @Columbia @ColumbiaSIPA shame on all these institutions! and more power to the comrades exposing her crimes ✊

This photo was taken 26 years ago today, 14-year-old Faris Odeh throwing a stone at an Israeli tank in Gaza. Ten days later, he was shot in the neck by an Israeli soldier and left to bleed to death.

Today’s UN report stated that Israel uses torture and rape to attack Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and—like in Gaza—they DELIBERATELY KILL CHILDREN. You have to be sick to still defend this.
