Among those arrested in Atlanta today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. You can hear her ask the PhD student taking the video:
“Can you call the Philosophy Department office and tell them I’ve been arrested?...I’m Noelle McAfee, I’m Chair of the Philosophy Department”

The air is heavy with the smell of death. It’s inescapable, in every corner, and worse with every body taken out of the ground.
Every time they dig, they find more corpses, sometimes in places they never expect. Sometimes they only find parts of a person, or a corpse decomposed beyond recognition.
According to the Gaza government media office, some bodies were found decapitated, or had their skin and organs removed. Children, elderly women and young men are said to be among the dead.
Rescue workers say they found bodies with their hands tied behind their backs, which the UN human rights office said “indicates serious violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law”.
Israel denies it buried the Palestinian bodies, claiming instead that it had “respectfully” exhumed the dead searching for Israeli captives.
There are so many tears at Nasser hospital today and so much pain. It’s hard for me to find the words to describe this scene.
The feeling of seeing someone find their relative is indescribable, the way mothers cover their dead sons in a shroud and accompany them to the cemeteries.
Every sight we capture as journalists we do so silently. We can’t speak, we cry blood as we film. Our hands are shaking so much our cameras lose focus. But we start over and try again.
Moatasim Mortaja is a Palestinian video journalist in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Over recent days, he has been documenting mass graves uncovered in Nasser hospital, where more than 300 bodies have been discovered since Israeli forces withdrew. On Monday, his video of a woman in grey holding the recently uncovered body of her son spread across social media. This is his descriptions of the scenes at Nasser hospital.

The director of the Ibrahimi mosque Moataz abu-Sneineh said the Israeli army shut the doors of the mosque today and tomorrow, preventing Palestinians and Muslim visitors from entry, as Jews celebrate Passover until Thursday.
The Israeli army is only allowing settlers to break in and perform Talmudic prayers, he added.
The mosque will be closed for 10 days and calls for prayers will also be suspended.
The move follows the “Shamgar” agreement, which led to division of the Ibrahimi Mosque after a massacre that took place in 1994. Since then, the mosque is being closed for ten days during the Jewish Passover, worships are being harassed and banned from entry, said abu-Sneineh.
Meanwhile, Israeli settlers stormed the Old City of Hebron, stopping shoppers from heading to the market. Nader Al-Tamimi, one of the area’s merchants, said that the settlers’ celebrations of their holidays come at the expense of the Palestinians, as they create “hell for us and an environment that repels passers-by and shop owners”.
“We witness attacks and the destruction of some of the contents of the shops, and many fear reaching the Old City. Their goal is to evacuate the Palestinians and only allow the settlers to roam freely,” he says.

Journalist Hossam Shabat describes the miserable conditions for displaced people in Gaza. He says,
During these times, all difficult conditions have converged on the citizens continuous shelling, lack of access to potable water, and also extremely high temperatures. Thousands of displaced people are living in these tents that are unbearable to live in, especially with today's high temperatures as we are at the beginning of summer l ask god to help the people of Gaza during these difficult times.

The protests at Emory university in Atlanta have been met with the most violent police brutality by far. Students have been tased, tear gassed shot with rubber bullets and THEY WILL NOT STOP because they are courageous Beings with a heart to match and the common people will not accept anything less than a Free Palestine 🙏🍉

WASHINGTON, April 25 — Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) today released the following statement in response to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s claim yesterday that criticism of the Israeli government’s policies is antisemitic:
“No, Mr. Netanyahu. It is not antisemitic or pro-Hamas to point out that in a little over six months your extremist government has killed 34,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 77,000 – seventy percent of whom are women and children.
It is not antisemitic to point out that your bombing has completely destroyed more than 221,000 housing units in Gaza, leaving more than one million people homeless – almost half the population.
It is not antisemitic to note that your government has obliterated Gaza’s civilian infrastructure – electricity, water, and sewage.
It is not antisemitic to realize that your government has annihilated Gaza’s health care system, knocking 26 hospitals out of service and killing more than 400 health care workers.
It is not antisemitic to condemn your government’s destruction of all of Gaza’s 12 universities and 56 of its schools, with hundreds more damaged, leaving 625,000 students with no education.
It is not antisemitic to agree with virtually every humanitarian organization in saying that your government, in violation of American law, has unreasonably blocked humanitarian aid coming into Gaza, creating the conditions in which hundreds of thousands of children face malnutrition and famine.
Mr. Netanyahu. Antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to many millions of people. But, please, do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government. Do not use antisemitism to deflect attention from the criminal indictment you are facing in the Israeli courts. It is not antisemitic to hold you accountable for your actions.”
—Bernie Sanders

"And you took him down? Excellent." Then they proceed to laugh.
A defenseless deaf elderly man...
This is beyond horrific. The IOF is filled with depraved sadists and war criminals.

"So Palestine will be no more? The war will be over soon?"
Fuck you. Fuck you one hundred times. Fuck you to hell and back.
Don't talk about Palestine as if it's murder was an uneventful occurence. Something that will eventually pass. You can't erase their existence like that. You can't undermine them like that. Don't talk about Palestine as if you're not letting them die over and over again, in a hell you couldn't even conjure up in your worst nightmares.

Remember not to stop with Palestine. Colonialism is around the world, both conquering and causing chaos to take advantage of what they have caused.
Don’t forget Sudan. Don’t forget the island nations under colonial and oppressive rule. That includes Hawaii! Don’t forget the natives of the Americas and Australia and New Zealand.
To be clear, Me leaving out nations is not meant to be an insult or minimize them. The list is long and I’m barely scraping the surface. And to be further clear, that is MY fault. I have benefited from this oppression, and I’m still learning more about it and to be further further clear that does NOT absolve me. It’s MY fault I haven’t seen where it all spreads.
Remember: if one of us isn’t free, none of us are!
