PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS IN JAPAN TAKE THE FIGHT TO GOOGLE'S HEADQUARTERS IN TOKYO
📹 Scenes from Japan, where Pro-Palestine protesters target Google's headquarters in Tokyo over contracts the company holds with the Israeli occupation and military.
Protesters targeted the tech giant over the company's "Nimbus Project", a massive cloud-computing project being designed for the Israeli occupation army and the Israeli government.
Previously, employees of Amazon and Google wrote a letter of protest against the project that was published in The Guardian back in October of 2021.
In the letter, the employees described the project as a deal to "sell dangerous technology to the Israeli military and government," and wrote that the project would "make the systematic discrimination and displacement carried out by the Israeli military and government even crueler and deadlier for Palestinians."
DONATIONS URGENTLY NEEDED. KINDLY DONATE IF YOU CAN, SHARE IF YOU CAN'T AND IGNORE IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO SUPPORT!!!
Hello, I'm from Gaza City because of the war,my house was destroyed. We lost everything,my family and I did not have anything left. We left our homes in search of a safe place and we were displaced three times to different places to survive, but unfortunately there's no safe place in Gaza. My mother is very sick and she's a kidney failure patient in need of treatment outside. She suffers from LS. Help me and my family to survive. Please, your small donation can make a huge difference. A friend outside Gaza has come in to help me run the donation program so that my mother can be evacuated.

After these scenes, there must be a position for all universities around the world to stand with the people of Palestine in Gaza. All hypocritical authorities and rulers who support the Nazi terrorist Israelis must be confronted.
I’m trying to get some more eyes on this campaign as the donations are still low (€600)🕊️
This is baby Mila, her mother Mai and father Akram. They have lived in poverty for years and finally saved their money for a new apartment for their daughter to grow up in, they lived there *two* days before it was bombed and completely destroyed 🤍
They are now displaced and trying to evacuate out of Rafah. if you can share or donate, anything would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼🙏🏼 she is @mayoshakhalel on ig, even interacting with her page on there is helpful!!
Mai and I connected through ig and it’s been weeks now and not a lot of interaction w her campaign. I really want to lift her spirits and help get her and her family to safety. They deserve so much better than this.

As anti-Israel protests have spread across many of the country’s most prestigious college campuses this week, several Republicans in Congress have sought to burnish their pro-Israel credentials by calling for the U.S. military to respond.
Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton exhorted President Joe Biden to send in National Guard units, while obliquely encouraging motorists to run over protestors. Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley similarly demanded a militarized federal response “to protect Jewish Americans,” while Mitch McConnell and John Thune penned a letter, signed by 25 of their fellow GOP senators, calling the demonstrators “anti-Semitic, pro-terrorist mobs” and demanding that “federal law enforcement” respond.
Meanwhile, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson paid a visit to Columbia University’s campus on Wednesday where he was greeted by catcalls and boos. Upon leaving, Johnson also declared he would be demanding that Biden deploy the National Guard to quell the protests if they continued.
As Adam Serwer, writing for the Atlantic, observes, these reflexive calls by Republicans for a military response to protests seem to be less rooted in genuine concern that the protests pose a serious danger to the public or Jewish people than “because these powerful figures find the protesters and their demands offensive.” Serwer points out that school administrators have, when necessary, called in local police to address potential violence, harassment, and property damage, and thus far, the protests do not evince the kind of “mass violence and unrest” that would normally suggest the need for federal involvement. He also notes that such a deployment of federal troops would likely escalate the protests.
Without debating the relative merits or lack thereof of the protests themselves, then, it’s important to note that these demands for a federal militarized response are coming almost entirely from one side of the political aisle. As Serwer points out, they echo the same sentiments Republicans expressed in 2020 in response to the protests by Black Lives Matter over the police murder of George Floyd.
In other words, thus far we have seen a markedly asymmetrical, political response by Republicans to campus protests this week. But we are also witnessing something else: an explicit acceptance of a militarized solution to protests where Republicans find it politically advantageous.
Notably, another well-known Republican has also proposed sending the U.S. military and National Guard units to quell anticipated public protests, albeit of a far different nature, should he be afforded another term in office. That person is Donald Trump, and the people he proposes to target are those Americans he suspects would turn out in the hundreds of thousands to protest the policies he intends to implement.
Prominent Republicans such as Tom Cotton, Donald Trump, and Mike Johnson are demanding a militaristic response to end the pro-Palestinian protests across the nation's campuses as a way of burnishing their pro-Israel Apartheid bona fides.
Such a response would further escalate protests instead of quell them.

people are calling what happened today in gaza “the flour massacre”
the flour massacre
these people just wanted to get food for their families, something as basic as flour, one of the things that the very core of humanity is built on, and israel used it as a trap to murder them in cold blood
evil is not enough of a word. there is not a word to describe what they are doing to palestine. they are bleeding her out, they are torturing her and crushing her and hoping that nothing is left to remember her by when they are done. how can anyone stand and watch what is being done with indifference? how can you watch this level of human suffering, this crime against life and feel nothing, do nothing
