Trump’s ‘Pastor’ Paula White:

I am truly honored to be seated here with those whom I believe are God’s chosen for everyone.

She also called Israel her “home.”

This is the theology behind U.S. policy: divine right, messianic destiny, and total erasure of Palestinians.

Here is a leaflet graphic for an upcoming action in Detroit, Michigan, USA.

This action has the broadest sponsorship of any pro-Palestine action since early 2024. 😀

They also emphasize that at this point, women and children in Gaza are in need of not just food but also specialized medical care to reverse severe malnutrition.

“The proposal is ludicrous,” said Dr. John Kahler, a pediatrician who co-founded a nonprofit group MedGlobal that supports re-feeding centers for children in Gaza. “Nothing new needs to get done. It’s a simple but not easy solution: Stop the bombing, open up the gates, and let the people who know how to do it, do it.”

The U.N. agency tasked with distributing aid in Gaza, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, or UNRWA, has maintained for months that it has received no specific evidence that Hamas or other armed groups were diverting its humanitarian aid in Gaza.

“These claims are used as a pretext to justify the aid distribution system supported by the Israeli authorities and the United States of America (so called GHF), which falls far from abiding to the humanitarian principles and international humanitarian law,” an UNRWA spokesperson told The Intercept in a statement.

As a #Palestinian doctor living and working in #Israel, in the midst of a longstanding conflict, I learned during my studies and work that injustice has been done to many populations living here. The occupation and coercion that Israel exercises over the Palestinian population in the occupied territories and the policy of discrimination against the Palestinian minority living within Israel cause serious harm to the right to health of these populations. Control over territories, expulsion, dispossession, violence, restriction of movement, establishment of settlements and apartheid cause great suffering to the population, prevent access to medical care and directly affect their health.

No ceasefire will erase the smell of blood that clings to our memories. No ceasefire can bring back those we have lost. No one can compensate the orphans or widows. No one can delete the massacres, the death traps disguised as aid centers. No one can erase the images of bodies in pieces, of blood soaked into the floor, of children crushed beneath rubble, of injured and amputated people, of infants and fetuses killed in their mothers’ wombs, of starved people suffering from malnutrition. No one can make us forget the taste of nothing during starvation and the feeling of helplessness in front of seeing our futures destroyed.

Story by Heba Almaqadma

The deprivation from starvation and siege is visible upon people’s faces. People are looking hollow-eyed and tired. We are suffering not just from hunger, but from abandonment. Palestinians have been turned into symbols of suffering and defiance, whereas what we want is not only to survive, but also to truly live and feel alive once more. Instead, as the whole world watches, for nearly two years we have been brutally murdered and tormented in the most horrific and innovative ways that a human mind can devise.

A new report by the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem admitting that #Israel is committing #genocide in #Gaza

The report details Israel’s policies, systematic violence & dehumanization of Palestinians, concluding that senior officials’ statements & the outcomes of Israeli actions show a deliberate, coordinated effort to destroy Palestinian society in the Gaza Strip

Trump's MAGA base defies conservative pro-Israel doctrine - US AFP News (2025-07-30)

------

>> Political scientist and former US diplomat Michael Montgomery thinks the tonal shift might in part be emotional -- with TV images of starving children resonating more profoundly than the aftermath of air strikes.

>> "Perhaps it is because no civilized people see starvation as a legitimate weapon of war," the University of Michigan-Dearborn professor told AFP.

>> Israel has always enjoyed broad bipartisan support in Congress but the rise of the isolationist MAGA movement under Trump has challenged the ideological foundations ...

>> Pro-Trump think tank The Heritage Foundation in March called on Washington to "re-orient its relationship with Israel" from a special relationship "to an equal strategic partnership."

No info was posted if the tent was occupied at the time. No casualties were mentioned. So the tent was likely empty.

It does however show how Palestinians now have to look out for not getting killed by literal food while they are in their tents.

Mile after mile of grey rubble - the view from a plane dropping aid to Gaza (Sally Lockwood | Sky News, 2025-07-28)

>> Sky News goes on board a Royal Jordanian Air Force plane for one of the first aid drop flights since Israel announced they could resume.

>> As land approaches, I look down. The ground is modern and built up - we're still over southern Israel.

>> Then a few short minutes later, it's clear we've crossed Gaza's border.

>> The ground turns grey, the shapes of buildings disappear, there are no cars, no people.

>> You can see the outline of communities and villages that are now flattened…

>> And Monday's flight came with strict media conditions.

>> We were told the Israeli side had warned that any shots of Gaza filmed from the air could result in these aid flights being cancelled.

>> But Israel's tight grip has not stopped the images from Gaza getting out …
