Blackfolks wore their Sunday best to march for Civil Rights and they were beaten, shot, set upon by dogs and fire hoses, but somehow not wearing a durag is going to magically save us from people consciously choosing to wear a suit & tie instead of a Klan hood to embrace white supremacy. Please.

I respect you, so I'm going to address your comment, but it just won't be today. Be well.

I'm done for the night. It is clear that we can't continue to engage productively. I'm sure we'll talk again once Kamala pivots sharply away from Biden. Rahm has opened the door and it won't be closed.

I have never said that only one side is committing war crimes. Hamas war crimes have been documented by the UN Committee of Inquiry in all of its reports except the most recent.

If a Conservative former Prime Minister and rival of Netanyahu can admit that Israel is committing war crimes, everyone should be able to raise questions about the sheer scale of the decimation of Gaza. Support in our party for Israel is collapsing, and it will continue. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

it's not ideal what has happened to him, but it doesn't negate the case against Netanyahu.

These are the Commissioners on the Committee whose report I've referenced. I did not reference the UN Human Rights Council. Scan the report. Read the intro. All reports they've written are on the site. www.ohchr.org/en/hr-bodies...

I can't do this with you today. But understand I'm reading as much as I can from B'tselem, Yuli Novak, Peter Beinart, Phyllis Bennis, and I watched Rahm Emanuel's speech. Be well.

Totally agree. As ignorant as Americans are, I have a hard time believing those numbers, regardless of what respondents may have said.

For those of you concerned about genocide everywhere, there is a resource to keep up with it all: earlywarningproject.ushmm.org/reports/coun...

That's my understanding as well, but I think they'll get there. The question for me is whether the proof will be accepted.

Did y'all see this?

At some point, not today, I'd like to do a thread on where I think the Democratic Party is heading regarding Israel/Palestine and why I think Kamala Harris will make a decisive pivot away from the previous Biden/Harris Administration policy. I welcome y'alls thoughts at that time.

You're right, sweetie. I'm sorry. Previously, religious worker visa holders were not required to go home for a year before renewing their visas. The Trump Administration is mindlessly xenophobic and racist. The sectarian violence Father Madu feared in Nigeria is really intense.

NATIONAL CATHOLIC REGISTER: The priest’s visa allowing him to stay in the United States was due to expire on July 29, and the Diocese of Abakaliki leadership had directed Father Madu to return to Nigeria even earlier this month, according to the Archdiocese of Boston.

The 77 million who knew damn better than to vote for this incompetent charlatan, but did anyway, asked for it.

I don't need to insult people to get any point across, so don't insult me if you want to debate.

That's probably because the report's title is a "Legal analysis of the conduct of Israel in Gaza." This commission has issued multiple reports that address Hamas' acts of terror. But it's clear you've never read one of those or watched a presser announcing the contents of those reports.

The UN isn't ignoring the ongoing conflict in Nigeria. A US-based Nigerian priest took his own life when his religious worker visa was expiring, and the church ordered him back home. www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...
