Israel and the US ignored widespread calls for accountability.

THREAD: Israeli settlers and soldiers killed a Palestinian American teenager on Friday in the Palestinian West Bank.

Once again, the Biden admin has failed to demand accountability from Israel for killing a US citizen. Instead, it funds, arms, and emboldens Israel's war crimes. Tawfiq Ajaj, 17, was raised near New Orleans but moved to the Palestinian West Bank last year.

On Friday, he was chased and shot at by an Israeli settler and off-duty soldier.

Tawfiq is the 358th Palestinian, and 93rd child, killed by Israel in the West Bank since October 7.

Israel has been carrying out its genocidal assault on Gaza for 100 days now. In that time, Israel has killed at least 23,000 Palestinians, 40% of whom were children.

THREAD: How Israel Tests Weapons on Palestinians—And Then Turns a Profit. Backed and funded by the US, Israel has one of the world’s largest military industries.

Israel develops deadly technology and weapons, uses them on Palestinians, and then sells them to democratic and authoritarian countries alike.

Censorship of Palestinians is rampant and dangerous.

It's not just the algorithm – tech and political leaders are actively working to silence and malign voices in support of Palestine. In a closed meeting this week, @SecBlinken said he asked Qatar to “turn down the volume” on Al Jazeera’s reporting of Israel's mass atrocities against Palestinians in Gaza.

The Biden admin is manipulating journalistic coverage to decrease global opposition to Israel's crimes.

THREAD: Israel is arming extremist settlers. Now, they're killing Palestinians. As it drops bomb after bomb on Palestinians in Gaza, Israel is giving 1000s of machine guns to extremist Israelis, including settlers in the Palestinian West Bank.
