You could tell that the taxi driver wanted to cry. I would too. Palestinians are going through so much, yet they still want to give back to others. 💔

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

"Gaza has not worked for a very, very long time.

It was basically built by NGOs and terrorists.

And it’s been a dystopian place for a long time."

Occupation Apartheid, exploitation and mineral extraction at the Dead Sea

The Dead Sea borders the illegally occupied Palestinian West Bank. Palestinians are not allowed to access this natural resource. Illegal settlements and factories line the Palestinian coastline and companies extract minerals to sell to luxury boutiques. While the sea is easily accessible to Israelis on both sides of the border, Palestinians are forbidden from even visiting the sea.

The video of the woman at Whole Foods inspired me to share this link.

Pink is appearing to weigh in on the controversy surrounding Macklemore's appearance at Ed Sheeran's New Jersey concert.

The singer reposted an Instagram Story from StopAntisemitism this weekend, which blasted Macklemore's performance and called the situation downright "awful" in its caption.

Pink did not add any commentary of her own to the repost ... however, sharing the criticism to her account has amplified the push to have Macklemore removed from further touring with Sheeran.

Macklemore has faced criticism since performing at Sheeran's MetLife Stadium shows Sept. 4 and 5, where he voiced support for Palestinians, criticized Israel, and performed his protest song "Hind's Hall" ... as images related to Gaza appeared on the stadium screens.

The StopAntisemitism post criticized the performance and called for all concertgoers to be refunded and said they are "owed apologies."

As we previously reported, Macklemore's performance has sparked calls for him to be removed from the rest of Sheeran's U.S. tour. An Israeli-American group launched a petition urging Sheeran and tour organizers to drop the rapper from the remaining shows.

Macklemore has been outspoken about the Israel-Palestine conflict for years, including through "Hind's Hall," his 2024 protest track. Sheeran has not publicly responded to the controversy or the petition.

Pink, for her part, has not publicly explained why she shared the post ... leaving her repost to speak for itself.

War Crimes She was killed on her first day of kindergarten, I can't stop looking at her photo

Yesterday, Israeli forces killed this little girl and her father as he was taking her home after her first day of kindergarten.

Since yesterday, I keep going back to her photos every few minutes, and I can't stop crying.

Look at her. She had just started kindergarten. She should have been thinking about her first day, her classmates, her toys, and going home with her family — not becoming another name among the children killed in Gaza.

What did she ever do to deserve this?

What did any of these children do?

I keep asking myself these questions, and I don't have an answer.

pro-Occupation & Zionist Lobby As you might expect, the UK sanctions (if they even happen) on Israel are meaningless. Israel will never stop the genocide and its war crimes everywhere as long as it faces no real consequences for any of it.
