Day after the attack: Peaceful olive farming across Turmus’ayya today. The Israeli army is going around to different fields asking farmers if they’re okay (lol). Normally I wouldn’t share a video like this, but idk… I feel like it’s a reminder that real boots on the ground reporting can have an impact?
We are at the exact scene of the attack. At the very end of this video an Israeli police commander shows up. He recognized me and wants to ask me a few questions… they’re “investigating” yesterday’s violence.
Ran into the Israeli soldier who offered me safe passage before jetting as the settlers arrived. He saw the video too and was very very sorry it happened.

To be clear: unless major media and political figures keep sustained attention on this, everything here will go right back to how it was.

October 19, 2025. On the first day of the olive harvest in Turmus'ayyer, the Israeli Defense Force leads a group of farmers directly into a brutal ambush by armed settlers. These people need to be in prison by tomorrow, and the people of this village, and all across Palestine, need to be protected. Enough is enough.
The US Embassy said that no, they cannot protect me. Image

This is me in the black, running while filming a mob of settlers, moments after the IDF sped away.

🧵Children of the occupied West Bank, October 11-15.

First up, kids in Umm al-Kheir—where a settler shot Yinon Levy dead in July—watching settlers cut up a fence to steal more of their land. Image
Kenan, youngest son of Awdah Hathaleen. He has no father now but he is surrounded by uncles, cousins, etc. and I have never seen a child more loved. Image

🧵Haaretz published a Hebrew-only article today, nominally about Israeli soldiers facing PTSD from their time in Gaza, with numerous admissions to killing children. Image
“… ‘We enter the area…and start spraying, firing hundreds of bullets. Then we charged forward, and then I realized that it was a mistake.’ There was no terrorist there. ‘I saw two bodies of children, maybe eight years old, maybe ten’… the company commander arrived and said coldly, as if he wasn't human, 'They entered the extermination area, it's their fault, that's how it is in war.’”Image
"‘Every day we have the same mission, to secure the humanitarian aid in the northern Gaza Strip’… the residents try to move forward to take a good place in line, but there is a line ahead of them that they do not notice. ‘A line that if they cross, I can shoot them,’ explains Benny. ‘It's like a game of cat and mouse. They try to come from a different way every time, and l'm there with the sniper rifle, and the officers are shouting at me, 'Take it down, take it down. I shoot 50-60 bullets every day, I stopped counting Xs. I have no idea how many I killed, a lot. Children.’”Image

I spoke to a teacher at a fancy NYC private school last night who said that on Wednesday the kids spent the whole day on TikTok watching the unblurred close-up assassination video, and the school couldn’t stop it. That seems… really bad.
I remember in 2004 some kid at school went to great lengths to navigate the dark corners of the internet and find the nick berg beheading video. Seemed like it really fucked him up. It is so insane that this stuff is passed around like cat videos now
Obviously 2 years of a live-streamed genocide in Gaza also very bad for the young brain in particular.

Will media critic and “Gaza Famine Myth” author Michael Ames (@mirkel) apologize for spending two days pushing misinformation about the Charlie Kirk assassination to vilify trans people and the left? For a guy so concerned with media bias, he sure doesn’t seem to care much for facts.Image

This guy calls Drop Site News “foreign agitprop” for publishing Hamas’s statements verbatim, and tried to get me deplatformed for writing a freelance piece for them. Meanwhile he spends all fucking day tweeting far-right conspiracy theories. This is what @TheFP is all about.
@TheFP Michael, you’re suffering from severe brain rot, and your reckless tweeting can have real consequences, particularly against trans people. Take a sabbatical, reflect, and repent.

An Israeli sniper from Chicago, after killing a 19-year-old and then shooting his brother for trying to retrieve the body: "What was so important about that corpse?”

Those were 2 of the 4 members of the same family killed by Israeli snipers on a single day in Gaza, Nov 2023. Image
Unbelievable quote: Image
Nothing we don't already know here, but yet another soldier confirming they shoot civilians for the crime of crossing an imaginary line. Image
