Let me tell you what crimes Israel has been up to in northern Gaza just in the past 24 hours (October 24, 2024):

- All three hospitals in northern Gaza are now under siege. The head of Al Awda hospital explains that there are hundreds of patients, including infants in incubators, that the staff simply cannot abandon.

- Israel attacked and destroyed the only remaining fire truck in northern Gaza. This attack led the Gaza civil defence to announce halting their operations in north Gaza completely.

- Israel has issued a kill list including 6 of the last remaining journalists in northern Gaza. Despite providing no evidence, these journalists are falsely accused of being members of Hamas/IJ, which makes them targets to assassinations as was the case with 100+ other journalists in Gaza.

- In the middle of the night, Israel has forcibly displaced thousands of families in the north, forcing them to leave their shelters/homes on foot to the south. Many of them have gone missing along the way.

- On top of relentless bombardment and massacres in the north, Israel continues to block food and water from entering north Gaza since the beginning of October. People are besieged and starved and being killed in so many ways.

These are all pieces of the same plan of Israel's complete ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza. We're witnessing it unfold minute by minute.

You cannot say you didn't know.

A British Jewish man who was at one of the protests for Gaza during Israel’s offensive on the strip last summer, stuck a Boycott Israel sticker to his Kippah in solidarity with Palestinians.

The Weill Cornell Medicine commencement was held earlier this month where a medical graduate from Gaza used his time on stage to condemn the university and its leadership for their complicity in the genocide on Gaza and implored his fellow graduates to stay true to their oath and stand with the hundreds of healthcare workers who have been killed by the IOF. In response the university have done everything they can to minimise this young graduate from speaking truth to power from his own graduation records by cutting away from him during the ceremony’s livestream and erasing his time on stage in the released footage.

Its fascinating that the way advertizing and apps work right now is simply how computer viruses, adware, spyware, and all manners of malware has ALWAYS worked. Growing up as a teen in the 2000s there used to be a program called Weatherbug that was pretty much considered unthinkable to ever have installed because of the way it knew your location and essentially EVERY adware, spyware, and antivirus software flagged it for removal immediately. It was considered best practice to never install anything. Never install toolbars, mever install anything without consulting a professional or unless you were ad advanced user. I was trained in Comptia A+ for the windows xp era and the best practice as a repair tech was to never allow the customer to install anything themselves if it could be helped.

And now just. Everything does this. Your fucking calculator wants your location data and business ghouls want it to ve illegal to use a simple adblocker because not advertizing to you hurts their feelings.

And now we have generative AI filling the internet witg slop that can have SEO and more ads slapped on top of it? Google is breaking on purpose so you make more searches?

The viruses have won, everything is malware and everything is a scam. To use commercial tech is to be voluntarily mugged

The skies of Gaza fill with shifting shapes on an early spring morning. At first they are barely visible, only specks soaring above central Gaza’s wetlands. Mandy Sirdah quickly raises her binoculars. “Storks!” she shouts excitedly. Close by, Lara Sirdah, her identical twin sister wearing matching clothes, grabs her long-focus camera and points it to the sky. “So many! So beautiful!” she cries out with joy as she snaps photos of hundreds of white storks flying in circles above her. Every spring, millions of birds set out from their wintering grounds in Africa and make their way north to Europe and Asia. At the intersection of three continents, the Middle East is an important stopover and one of the world’s busiest corridors for bird migration. Many of these birds fly over Gaza, an overcrowded coastal enclave often described as an “open-air prison.” The birds soar above more than two million people, most of them refugees whose families were forced to leave their villages in 1948 with the establishment of the State of Israel and have been unable to return. Concentrated in refugee camps, Palestinians in Gazahave also been confined by Israeli policies of military closure over many decades and a brutal air, sea and land blockade imposed since 2007. “Our movement is very restricted,” says Lara, who feels cut off from the rest of the world. “We wish we were birds so we could move freely.” Over the past years, birdwatching trips to the Strip’s wetlands, groves and fields have offered the twins a rare opportunity to escape the feeling of confinement. With their heads raised to the sky, they search for birds and dream of flight
