"We mistakenly believed we were executing unarmed Palestinians instead of real people"
its moments like this you really can tell that american police train with the idf
He said he was unable to answer immediately whether the three men had put their hands up or shouted to the soldiers […]
“The IDF emphasizes that this is an active combat zone in which ongoing fighting over the last few days has occurred. Immediate lessons from the event have been learned, which have been passed on to all IDF troops in the field,” Hagari said.
Israeli soldiers are now being told to "exercise additional caution" when encountering people in civilian clothes military spokesperson Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said Friday, after the Israel Defense Forces said it accidentally killed three Israeli hostages in Gaza.
so they are 100% just killing unarmed, surrendering civilians, and this is only being reported on because three of the civilians they executed weren't Palestinians
Can someone assassinate Shaun King already. I'm tired of seeing this grifter everywhere and I'm not letting his ass steal money from my people like he did to Black Americans.
If anyone has connections to any of the people in this photo, please please find a way to send them the message that Shaun King is a dangerous individual who has lied and stolen from pro-Black movements he wormed his way into, repeatedly (more theft). He's been caught lying this time round while he was claiming to have been an integral part of the hostage negotiations, as he worms his way into the Palestinian liberation movement.
Worst case, just reblog this post and spread it around. I hope it gets the attention of the right people. The last thing we need is a liar and thief.
this man was arrested by the IDF, had explosives and a camera strapped to him and a leash put on him, and forced to walk down tunnels so soldiers could check for Hamas fighters via the camera - and detonate him if they saw any. (Presumably of they saw anyone at all, given their disinterest in making any distinctions.) After they let him go they specifically chose "someone younger" to do the same - a 15 year old boy.
The horror is unimaginable.

will never forget the parents who lost all 8 of their kids saying "they slept hungry, we were trying to get them a piece of bread but they were killed"
we are witnessing a population run out of food. WFP said a few days ago that half of the population are starving, nine out of 10 are not eating every day.
The actual quote almost hits worse because it's more of that "any Palestinian violence justifies any 'israeli' violence, but any and all 'israeli' violence will never justify Palestinian violence" bullshit
🇵🇸🍉 Free Palestine 🍉🇵🇸
from the article:
One of the Palestinian men arrested and tortured for days by Israeli soldiers shows the number he was marked with and his swollen hands from the handcuffs
liberals (so called ideology of freedom and hope): what can we do :/ everything is bleak and sucks forever :///
communists (so called ideology of misery and doom): don't lose hope, don't lose faith, we will live to see a free world
the sheer amount of liberals on this site going like "there's nothing we can do :((( oh well sad" compared to communists believing in free palestine and end of imperialistic world order. who is surprised. if you have no strong ideals and solutions (as liberals dont) of course you live in a bleak world where there is "nothing to be done"

Once you learn that you’re autistic, it can feel like you’re becoming more autistic than you were. This often contributes to imposter syndrome, and feeling like you’re faking having autism. That you’re only acting autistic because you think you have autism, when really you’re just putting on some act.
The truth, however, is that you’re most likely just autistic. You’ve learned more about autism, so now you’re noticing all these “new” autistic behaviors that have been happening subconsciously. And if those behaviors are actually new? You’re still just autistic. A lot of times when people learn about autism, they give themselves more leeway to be autistic. They let themselves stim more, they let themselves act in ways that feel more natural. A lot of times this leads to discovering a whole new set of behaviors that you haven’t had before because they had been suppressed for so long.
It’s important to not gaslight yourself during this process. Sometimes you have to take a step back and see if this is you just noticing more because you know what to look for, or if this is maybe you noticing more because you’re not suppressing everything anymore. Imposter syndrome isn’t fun to deal with, so it’s important to try and be gentle, kind, patient, and open-minded with yourself while it’s happening.

this is controversial (and i’ve seen some people mention this on twt) BUT i really want there to be a new rule in leftist circles, that you aren’t allowed to criticize the CDC/government’s response to covid or speak on disability rights in any way if you aren’t still masking in public spaces
