More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But itβs important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.
Palestinians do not need another peace circus, nor shark billionaires who view Gaza through the prism of a real-estate opportunity rather than a people. There can be no βpeaceβ that erases Palestinian agency while entrenching Israeli criminal impunity.

"We must actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be."
"What does it mean for middle powers to live the truth? First it means naming reality..." (π§΅1/6)
