Joe Biden has called for an “immediate ceasefire” in Gaza, telling Benjamin Netanyahu that future US support for Israel will depend on it taking concrete action to protect civilians and aid workers. As the two leaders held their first phone call since Israeli airstrikes killed seven employees of the international food charity World Central Kitchen (WCK), Biden issued the strongest US rebuke toward Israel since the start of the conflict. In Thursday’s call, which lasted less than 30 minutes, the US president “made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering and the safety of aid workers”, the White House said in a statement.

If you want to support Ukrainians, DO NOT donate to Red Cross. Can't speak about their work in other countries, but they're useless in Ukraine. The only trustworthy international organisation I can think of is World Central Kitchen.
Donate to World Central Kitchen
Tumblr media
And it's even better to donate directly to Ukrainian organisations. Here are a few good legit places:
hospitallers.life - "Hospitallers", Ukrainian paramedics on the frontlines
savelife.in.ua - "Come Back Alive", assistance to the army
prytulafoundation.org - "Prytula Foundation", assistance to the army, humanitarian causes
starenki.com.ua - "Starenki", helping elderly people
everybodycan.com.ua - "Everybody Can", helping disabled children, elders and hospitals
uanimals.org - "UAnimals", saving animals

World Central Kitchen Donate: Fueling the Mission of Hope
Tumblr media
World Central Kitchen (WCK) stands as a beacon of hope in times of crisis, offering nourishment and support to those affected by disasters worldwide. As a global nonprofit organization, WCK’s mission revolves around alleviating hunger and providing meals to communities devastated by natural calamities and humanitarian crises. However, this noble cause cannot be accomplished without your generous donations.

World Central Kitchen confirmed that seven of their workers have been killed by an IDF strike in Gaza. Israeli forces are deliberately killing these aid workers to cut the crucial supply of food for starving people in Gaza. Being in the frontlines of support for Palestinians comes with a dangerous target on their backs, not knowing if they will even make it out of Gaza alive. Meanwhile, mainstream news outlets are still committed to downplay everything and enable the language of genocide by covering up Israel. Say the attackers name. WHO KILLED THEM? NAME THE OPPRESSOR.

Seeing photos and videos of the wildfires in Southern California on social media and in the media here in the UK, the word that comes to mind is “apocalyptic.” It’s just horrendous and my thoughts are with everyone affected and any of my mutuals or followers who are in California, please stay safe.
An incredible organisation I support, World Central Kitchen, now has relief teams in place on the ground, helping first responders and families who have evacuated. If you can donate, they are a very worthy cause to support - they do a lot of work in disaster areas and war zones around the world.

Remember during the 2016 elections, we were so scared of what Trump might do? How afraid we were for Roe but were told by so many people, pro-choice people even, that it was such settled law and it would be such a flashpoint, they'd never touch it. Don't overreact, you sound hysterical, this fearmongering is ruining your credibility. Hell, maybe worry for gay marriage, but abortion? No chance.
We watched Kavanaugh and ACB confirmed with increasing trepidation and STILL there was so much shock when the Dobbs leak happened.
Remember that feeling of knowing what was going to happen, because of your experience and knowledge, and nobody believing you till it was too late? And the very people who smugly shut you up pivoting and continuing to act like the authority, that, ah, yes, now was the time to worry?
This guy above represents the mainstream Western narrative since Israel killed the World Central Kitchen aid workers.
Somehow, after everything we've already seen, Israel was still getting the benefit of the doubt. After killing hundreds of aid workers already, mostly Palestinian, after killing more than 15,000 children, after killing multiple people waving white flags. After literally a scenario where a Red Crescent ambulance arranged safe passage with the IDF--just as this WCKitchen convoy had--to rescue a 6 year old child and ending up bombed.
Why didn't the world listen before? Israel didn't suddenly change, only perceptions have. They're the same now as they were three days ago, as they have been for the last months, years, decades. This wasn't an escalation, it was an inevitability.
Chef José Andrés, who runs the WCKitchen, and recently a vocal critic of Israel, was actually strongly defending them earlier. I saw someone call that Western naivety, but... is it simply being too naive, too trusting, when your good faith is only extended to one side? Isn't that just bias? Now Pelosi is signing a letter to stop weapon transfers to Russia when she was accusing protesters of being paid by Russia? Now, Western governments are saying this is too much?
I'll take any help we can get in stopping this onslaught, but these recent shifts came too late to save so many, including the WCKitchen workers. What changed for so many people now? We can't ignore why THIS was so many people's red line when tens of thousands of Palestinians weren't. Not only would it be an injustice to them but until this bias is interrogated how are we going to stop this or from repeating if the same wrong ass people are making the same decisions with the same worldview?

This is how the NYT is reporting on Israel bombing the car of humanitarian workers, they make it seem like Gazans did it. This is way beyond parody, this is genocide abetment.
