On hey, look at that. Only a few hours after the ceasefire, Israeli forces are storming the Al-Aqsa Mosque AGAIN! Reports are they're firing tear gas and rubber bullets.

Video of armed Israeli forces storming the third holiest site in Islam, just hours after the ceasefire was agreed upon.

They have also taken prisoners.

Reports are of many and increasing casualties.

One is Muhammad Sami Najib (pictured), who Israeli forces hit in the face with a stun grenade, shattering many of his teeth. #AlAqsa #AlAqsaMosque

(Thread) Israel is not just attacking Gaza; it is targeting journalists.

Here are some of the most notable attacks on the media.

Pictured is Gazan Momen Faiz Quraiqea outside his bombed out press office. (A previous 2008 Israeli airstrike blew his legs off).
2. Journalists from Andolu Agency were fleeing an airstrike in a car clearly marked TV when they themselves were targeted by an Israeli strike.
3. Israel blew up the multi-storey building home to the headquarters of Al-Jazeera and the Associated Press.

(Thread) A new poll shows the world thinks the US is the greatest threat to democracy.

But this Western NGO is aiming to "defend democracy" against China by expanding NATO into the Pacific and by taking greater control over the net at home.

My new study:
mintpressnews.com/alliance-of-de…
Even in key ally states like the UK, Israel and Canada, the public considers the US a much greater threat to democracy than Russia or China.

But the Alliance of Democracies, a US-funded NGO wants to save democracy by uniting like-minded nations.
The AoD's new conference featured such noted democrats as Venezuela's Juan Guaidó, who called for more sanctions and economic warfare against his country.

Meanwhile, war criminals like NATO boss Anders Fogh Rasmussen and Gen. HR McMaster worried that China was the real threat.

This is a call for a massacre.

Please, and I cannot stress this enough, cancel any subscription you have to the New York Times (and tell them why you did it).
Israel only targets civlian infrastructure in Gaza. This whole thing was started off by an unprovoked attack on worshippers at the third holiest mosque in Islam during Ramadan.
Lol, this is how Brett "Bedbug" Stephens describes the police attack.

(Thread) Im collecting many of the most egregious media depictions of the Israeli assault on Palestine.

Please add any you've seen too. #PalestinianLivesMatter

1. The @nypost totally reversing who's responsible, claiming Hamas bombed itself with its own, non-existant jets Image
2. @dwnews' tweet implies that the Palestinian kids murdered by Israel were actually fighters themselves. Image
3. The @AP:

Palestinian rockets kill 2 Israelis, but 26 Gazans simply "die" under mysterious circumstances.

Nice switching between active and passive voice.

Also, kudos for leading with 2 Israeli deaths, which suggests they are more important & newsworthy than 26 Palestinians. Image

(Thread): My new @MintPressNews report into how Israeli propagandists are trying to push back against the new @hrw report labeling Israel an apartheid state and calling for sanctions, feat. @AsaWinstanley

mintpressnews.com/human-rights-w…
The Israeli government is using an app called Act.IL to organize its supporters into troll armies to challenge its findings.

Act.IL users are active on Facebook, Insta, YouTube, Twitter and all other big platforms.

Below is an app screenshot
I messaged Facebook, YouTube, Quora and other big platforms to ask whether they thought this conduct was legal on their platforms. But none of them replied.

(Thread) The woke CIA is back with a whole set of new videos.

1.“Growing up gay in a small Southern town, I always struggled with the idea that I may not be able to discuss my personal life at work. Imagine my surprise when I noticed a rainbow on CIA Director Brennan’s lanyard.”
These are all real and taken from an unlisted CIA YT playlist I was sent.

“Ive been able to inspire not only women to pursue being on the Director’s protective staff but also people who wouldn’t normally consider themselves qualified to be an agent” says a POC mom of two boys.
“I want people with disabilities to know that the agency does hire,” says a blind employee, claiming the CIA’s top goal is to “create a more inclusive environment”.
