Hind Rajab was afraid of the dark. After killing her family & wounding her, Israel prevented her rescue & left her to die alone in the dark. I write about those critical hours & the film that brings back her voice to induct the world’s silence @newlinesmag.bsky.social newlinesmag.com/review/hind-...

"We still don’t know when Hind’s life ended. She feared the dark, and for all the heroism and sacrifices of the PRCS, the darkness found her."
@idreesahmad.bsky.social reviews the Oscar-nominated feature “The Voice of Hind Rajab.”

Some of the Edge's best melodies around an infectious Adam Clayton bass riff. And that wonderful, hip sound that only Larry Mullen can add to a song. Welcome back, U2. You've found your heart and voice and this is beautiful.
U2 have produced their greatest song since the 80s. This is not the corporate, celebrity Bono. This is the anti-Apartheid activist Bono. A memorable song with heart. (It's a tribute to Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen who was killed by Israeli settlers).

Michael Spagat and his team have updated their study and it only strengthens their conclusion that the Gaza Ministry of Health numbers are a vast undercount. They also confirm that women and children comprise 56% of all violent deaths in Gaza. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

Full text of Ben Hania's powerful speech:
In a powerful speech "The Voice of Hind Rajab" director Kaouther Ben Hania denounces empty platitudes about "peace" while festivals provide cover for genocide, announces that she won't be taking her award home.
One Ben Hania is worth a million Wim Wenders.

Kaouther Ben Hania’s “The Voice of Hind Rajab” retells the story of the 5-year-old’s final hours, amplifying her pleas to indict the world’s silence over Gaza’s children. @idreesahmad.bsky.social reviews the film. newlinesmag.com/review/hind-...
Lifeforms that live like this are typically called parasitic
Regarding the death toll in Gaza. Why did Israel recently embrace the Gaza Ministry of Health figures even though its apologists had spent years attacking anyone citing them as a "Hamas propagandist"? Why does @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social still prefix all references to the ministry with "Hamas-run"?
‘Gaza is Hind’s story multiplied thousands of times. That’s why it resonates.’
“On the day Hind Rajab Hamada was killed with her six family members, the victims and their would-be rescuers did everything right…They abided by the occupier’s every diktat. They were killed all the same. Gaza is Hind’s story multiplied thousands of times.”
'Palestinian woman who has been held in immigration jail for nearly a year after she attended protest in NY said she suffered seizure after fainting and hitting her head, due to “filthy” and “inhumane” conditions inside privately run detention facility'

"'The Voice of Hind Rajab' collects its audience’s diffuse sense of loss and injustice and gives it focus. It is a permission to grieve — freely and without shame. And to find community in that grief." | @idreesahmad.bsky.social
The woke scolds are trying to make this about racism. But Musk is right. It's about historical and scientific integrity. When the God of Thunder disguises himself as a swan to seduce and fuck a queen and the resulting baby hatches from an egg, *of course* the baby will be white. It's just science.
Seth Moulton is calling for ICE to be prosecuted in no uncertain terms.
This is becoming a foundational political agreement for anyone seeing to oppose the regime. We need the broadest possible coalition all united about the necessity of caging these fucking monsters.
Yet another societal failure caused by the youth with their avocado toast, alcohol-free beer, and refusal to do murders
On this day two years ago, the IDF killed Hind Rajab, her six family members, and the two medics sent to rescue her. They terrorised her for five hours before they killed her. She was 3 months shy of her 6th birthday. Her mother Wissam writes of the loss.

And, to the extent it matters, the video does not show Pretti "spitting in the face" of anyone – a reverse angle shows he spat on the unmarked car, and vented his rage at the agents 6 day after they murdered Renee Good, a few blocks away, as we reported www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

No children should be in immigration detention centers
