Shout out to Ibtihal Aboussad who told Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman during Microsoft's 50 years celebration:

“Shame on you. You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide in our region. You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate when Microsoft is killing children. Shame on you all.”

meanwhile on Mastodon I hear that ...

"The moderator of @mastodon.social is hiding and limiting people's accounts for opposing the #genocide in #gaza done by #us and israel.

What kind of bad, ignorant person do you have to be to call it a holocaust inversion?"

This is how Germans see it: poor Israel army must shoot Palestinians in #Gaza because bad Hamas uses them as shields.

No snipers murdering women and children, no planes dropping 1,000 kg bombs on tents, no destruction of infrastructure by IDF, no nothing on genocide.

Look at the photo and you understand @Bundesregierung and @APoD , this is their world, 100,000 dead and insured or international law or human rights don't happen there. Only Israeli propaganda.

When a government attempts to discredit The Hague, it's a sign something has gone terribly wrong in that country. My latest:

I'm shure we'd see a #Ceasefire in #Gaza once #Hamas releases all #Hostages and conditionlessly surrenders...

After all Gazans ain't gonnaa get rid of Hamas on their own...

Wix fires Irish employee for Gaza support, tells staff to “join a company initiative to create videos and creative campaigns”, to “support Israel’s narrative” … “show Westernity” in posts, as “unlike the Gazans, we look and live like Europeans and Americans”. It’s “very important to emphasise this in texts and images so that they feel close to us”

A person driving a truck with right-wing stickers pulled a "splatter ball gun" on pro-Palestine protesters at a rally. Several armed rally goers pulled their own weapons, and forced the person to drop their weapon and also remove their mask.

"Two individuals within the march rushed to the front, drew their own handguns, and ordered the man to immediately drop his weapon and take off his mask to which he complied. After doing so, he took his mask off. As the two individuals kicked the now-unmasked man’s weapon away,"

"Across the Gaza Strip, hospitals are on the brink of running out of spare fuel, after the Palestinian territory’s sole power station stopped functioning on Wednesday following Israel’s refusal to allow supplies of fuel."

"At the heart of this crisis are the intensive care units, where thousands of injured people are struggling for their lives. A significant number of them rely on electricity-powered oxygen generators to breathe and survive."
