Just today @MiddleEastMnt had a report that the daughter of Muslim Brotherhood leader Khairat Al-Shater is using her pocket as a toilet in prison. If Morsi's death doesn't raise alarm about conditions in Egyptian prisons, what will? #Egypt w.middleeastmonitor.com/20190617-i-use…
More from the report: "In March, the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights launched the campaign Periods in Prison to pressure prison authorities to provide incarcerated women with sanitary products, access to clean water and toilets to prevent the spread of disease."
"Women in Egyptian prisons must buy products from the prison canteen, or receive them from visitors, however some do not have the funds to do so and others are prohibited from family visits."
"Aisha (Al Shater) has been banned from receiving visitors, which is against Egyptian law. She has not seen her three children for eight months." #Egypt #MohamedMorsi

Two years ago, @nytimes published the journalistic disaster “Screams Without Words.”

Its sources were discredited and key claims debunked, yet the Times never retracted it or apologized.

The piece caused immense harm and was used to justify the Gaza genocide. Image

Seymour Hersh writes that Israeli insiders and American officials tell him there will be “heavy American bombing” of Iran as early as this weekend and that all will be “under control” if Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei “departs.”
If true, this suggests that the Trump administration is once again using the media to mislead the public and that Trump won’t take two weeks to decide what to do. It would also confirm that this assault is all about Israel’s longtime goal of forcing regime change in Iran.
This is horrifying. Hersh writes that Trump delayed the bombing of the centrifuges in Fordow because “he wants the shock of the bombing to be diminished as much as possible by the opening of Wall Street trading on Monday.”

Israel went into overdrive to deny it killed Palestinians at an aid site in Gaza on Sunday but @CNN investigation “points to the Israeli military opening fire on crowds of Palestinians as they tried to make their way to the fenced enclosure to get food.” cnn.com/2025/06/04/mid…
More than a dozen eyewitnesses, including those wounded in the attack, said Israeli troops shot at crowds in volleys of gunfire that occurred sporadically through the early hours of Sunday morning.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), the US and Israeli-backed aid initiative that runs the site, said that Israeli forces were operating in the area during the same period.

As 2024 comes to a close, I wanted to share all of the films on Palestine that @AJFaultLines released this difficult year and encourage you all to watch, share and screen them. 🧵
In March we released “The Palestine Exception” which looks at the crackdown on criticism of Israel on college campuses. In a prescient decision, our team filmed with student activists at Columbia even before the encampment.
In June, we released “The Night Won’t End,” a feature-length documentary investigating civilian killings by the Israeli military and the US role in Israel’s war, following 3 families as they grieve and try to survive.

On MSNBC Joe Scarborough is blaming Trump’s win on progressives for using pronouns.
And now he’s blaming anti-genocide protests on college campuses.
And now Chris Matthews is saying that Democrats lost because they let in “millions” of migrants into the country. This rhetoric is indistinguishable from Fox News.
