My latest for @washingtonpost: "I was told I was the target of threats from Saudi Arabia. This is why." Please read & share. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
@washingtonpost I can confirm that MBS & Qahtani's trolls are *very* triggered by this op-ed (just check my mentions). So here's what I need you to do - retweet it.
Click through the tweets in this thread and see how many MBS's trolls are under them. So triggered. Good.

I'm a stateless Palestinian refugee and I found this @ajplus video about the Holocaust disturbingly antisemitic. You can't "yes, but" the freaking Holocaust. This is really shameful.
The video indulges in multiple well known antisemitic tropes, showing pictures of the victims of the Holocaust while the presenter engaged in a repeated and elaborate "yes, but" exercise. Really shameful work.
Among these tropes:
- "It wasn't only the Jews who suffered in the Holocaust"
- Even suggests that the "final solution" didn't only concern Jews (in fact it did)
- "Why only focus on Jewish victims? Everyone suffered"

The girl in the picture is 5-year old cancer patient Aisha Al-Lulu. She died alone in a Jerusalem hospital, because Israel didn't allow any of her family members to leave Gaza to be with her during her treatment.
This is an Arabic language report from May 3rd in which the family urges officials to allow them to be with their daughter. She was transferred to the hospital on April 17th, alone. alwatanvoice.com/arabic/news/20…
What's astounding (and important) here is that Aisha is only one of two little girls in this situation. Hajar, who is 9 months old, is also getting treatment alone, and her prospects don't look good.

Based on comparing tactics and shrapnel from Yemen, investigators say highly likely that the IRGC is behind recent attacks on oil tankers. In a war against the US, IRGC is likely to "use asymmetric methods" while maintaining "plausible deniability".
The Iranian regime in the past has made it clear that in the event of a large scale conventional war with the US, they will attack US allied Gulf states, disrupt oil exports, and attempt to block the highly strategic Strait of Hormuz.
A third of the world's liquefied natural gas exports and a fifth of the world's crude oil exports pass through the Strait of Hormuz, so any disruption would have global ramifications.

#Saudi feminist Loujain al-Hathloul, 29, was detained in May in unprecedented crackdown vs feminists. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman aide Saud al-Qahtani, personally oversaw her interrogation, which incl waterboarding & threatened to rape & kill her google.com/amp/s/www.wsj.…
Of 18 detained activists, at least eight have been physically abused in custody, according to Saudi advisers, activists &others with knowledge of the prisoners’ treatment. One said security officials electrocuted her hands. “My fingers resembled barbecued meat, swollen and blue”
Glad to see some finally pay attention to misogyny in #Saudi Arabia - I call it gender apartheid. RIP Jamal Khashoggi. It should not be lost on us that it took the murder of a man for some to finally pay attention to women.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

I am making a thread to follow this piece by @marwanbishara because I don't think enough people, even if they have read it, understand the full significance to the #Palestinian cause if this trap is laid. Please read & share.

First the timing.
"Trump administration has launched an all-out sadistic assault on the UN Relief and Works Agency, UNRWA, that cares for the survival and education of 4-5 million refugees and their descendants."
2nd the deal with Hamas. Read the Al Arabiya article & compare tone to."mediation for a separate deal between Hamas and Israel... just when the latter blockades, starves and cuts fuel to the Gaza Strip" to quote @marwanbishara

One of the ideas President Trump is considering to fix school shootings is adding armed guards to every school and that is the most functionally impossible thing that's we could try to pass right now because MATH. Here come some well researched numbers. THREAD
2/ Not every number is cited but you can ask Google as fast as you can ask me if you have any doubts.
There are about 100,000 public schools in the US right now. An armed guards makes about 40,000 per year. We're already at 4 Billion annually. That was fast.
3/ If you include benefits and insurance (life insurance is expensive for people in harm's way) for that alone, you'd spend 10 Billion per year (using data from the Police Foundation saying police spend 100K per year per officer on benefits). 15 Billion annually now.
