Their official Instagram was banned so it seems it was posted on an affiliated account.
“We acknowledge that the community was shocked by the phrase, and the burning of the Canadian flag that came after the march was concluded. Yet, we at Samidoun stand by this phrase as the call to action that it is,” wrote the group in a lengthy statement posted to Instagram. Source
From the article’s graph:
September had the lowest number of lorries recorded since the first month of the war, with only 53 lorries per day
I’m not sure how they got their numbers. I checked the Humdata site it shows 2905 trucks in September and 3096 trucks in August. Averaging around 97 and 100 trucks per day respectively. The article’s graph also shows May had more trucks than June which doesn’t match the data I saw.
I think the data I linked is from the UN which is their stated source, maybe they’re filtering the data on some criteria.
Edit: I was listening to the security council meeting concerning the middle east today. Algeria and United Kingdom representatives mentioned the lowest amount of humanitarian trucks entered last month since the start of the war. I found the UN report it’s from.
According to OCHA, in September 2024, an average of only 52 humanitarian trucks entered the Gaza Strip per day. This is well below the pre-crisis average of 500 trucks per working day.
The OCHA link has a graph at the bottom with the same data as the BBC article.
Do you have a date or news article for the initial border attack by Israel in Metula? I thought that the initial attack was Hezbollah firing rockets on Oct 8th.
Israel has killed almost 10% of the people in the last 9 months
This is a slight misinterpretation. The estimate also includes deaths that will occur in the coming months and years because of the war.
What are the new lies, can you point me to the part of the article? Pramilla Patten is a UN official, what motivation does she have to lie about the investigation?
Calling the AP a tabloid is delusional. They don’t always get things right but they deserve some credit.
They likely knew he was actively wielding bladed weapons.
I watched the full video. They were repeatedly told he didn’t have any weapons. The clinician just said the man was violent and kicked him.
I have no idea why they didn’t use less than lethal first, they talk about it but I don’t know which officer was tasked with it. It seems like they didn’t expect him to be armed when they entered.
Go to Applebee’s and order Four-Cheese Mac & Cheese with honey pepper chicken tenders. The chicken tenders are excellent but the Mac and Cheese is the most watery garbage I’ve ever eaten. Then you will understand the true skill of making delicious Mac and Cheese.
Wtf, what did he do? I quite enjoyed his movies. I know he is literally Skeletor but that’s just in a movie.
Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, meanwhile, called for immediate punishment for the Palestinian Authority and expanded settlement construction in the Occupied West Bank as a response.
This is unhinged, wanting to punish the PA for other countries recognizing Palestine.
Yeah I could see it being a strategy to keep as many seats as possible. After looking at the polling, the Conservative party has been declining in popularity since 2020. The best timing for them is ASAP because it’s only getting worse. They are just about as unpopular as they were when Liz Truss was in office.
Polling looks good for Labour. Kinda crazy the prime minister basically torpedoed his own party because it was so bad.
Oof, I really thought it could be a good source of information, even if a little biased. The archived versions I’ve seen are unusable too.
Which Democrats want austerity??? This isn’t the UK.
I’m not saying they can’t prove it. They might be able to, the problem is connecting public statements to official Israeli policy.
“I don’t think there are any innocents there now, not now and not when I said those things,” Vaturi said.
It’s not right, but he said this after an evacuation of the area.
“I urge you to do everything and use Doomsday weapons fearlessly against our enemies,” Gotliv wrote on social media platform X, calling upon Israel to use “everything in its arsenal”.
This is pretty vague and specifically mentions “enemies”
In November, Galit Distel Atbaryan, Israel’s former public diplomacy minister, called for Gaza to be “erased from the face of the Earth”, stating that the besieged enclave should be “wiped out” by a “vengeful and vicious” Israeli army.
This guy isn’t even in office, it is ironic he was a diplomacy minister
Last week, lawmaker Moshe Saada said that widespread calls he had heard from the Israeli public to “destroy all Gazans” had proven that the “right-wing was right about the Palestinian issue”.
This is a pretty good example but he never says that the right-wing policy is to destroy all Gazans, just that the public wants it.
It’s not such an easy thing to prove. There are plenty of right-wing extremists in Israel’s government right now, it’s likely they have crossed the line with their rhetoric but rhetoric isn’t policy. I have yet to see any smoking gun evidence that Israel specifically intends to commit genocide (in a legal sense, not a moral or colloquial way).
with intent to destroy
dolus specialis (intent) is the most crucial part of genocide. Without it none of the five acts apply.
Can anyone access the [Cogat data] (https://govextra.gov.il/cogat/humanitarian-efforts/home/) on aid distribution, the site always shows a 404 for me?
The UN keeps some data but since May 5th it is incomplete, and it doesn’t include all the crossings into gaza. Since May 5th, only 69 trucks UN/INGO have been recorded entering Gaza. Source
After Israel seized the AP equipment, the Biden administration, journalism organizations and an Israeli opposition leader condemned the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and pressured it to reverse the decision.
Israel’s communications minister, Shlomo Karhi, said late Tuesday on the social platform X: “I have now ordered to cancel the action and return the equipment to the AP.”
A terrible decision but it was reversed.
Why didn’t you include all of article II in your criteria?
Here’s the beginning:
The intent and type of group being targeted are also part of the criteria.
In this case it would be Israel intending to destroy, in whole or in part, Palestinians. Which South Africa is trying to prove in court using statements that Israeli politicians have made and the actions of the IDF.
