EYES on RAFAH!!!!!

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says troops will enter Rafah “with or without a truce".

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel has approved the largest seizure of land in the occupied West Bank in over three decades, a settlement tracking group said Wednesday, a move that is likely to worsen already soaring tensions linked to the war in Gaza.

Israel’s aggressive expansion in the West Bank reflects the settler community’s strong influence in the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the most religious and nationalist in the country’s history. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, a settler himself, has turbocharged the policy of expansion, seizing new authorities over settlement development and saying he aims to solidify Israel’s hold on the territory and prevent the creation of a Palestinian state.

Authorities recently approved the appropriation of 12.7 square kilometers (nearly 5 square miles) of land in the Jordan Valley, according to a copy of the order obtained by The Associated Press. Data from Peace Now, the tracking group, indicate it was the largest single appropriation approved since the 1993 Oslo accords at the start of the peace process.

Settlement monitors said the land grab connects Israeli settlements along a key corridor bordering Jordan, a move they said undermines the prospect of a contiguous Palestinian state.

U.N. spokesperson Stephane Dujarric called it “a step in the wrong direction,” adding that “the direction we want to be heading is to find a negotiated two-state solution.”

The newly seized land is in an area of the West Bank where, even before the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war, settler violence was displacing communities of Palestinians. That violence has only surged since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack ignited the war in Gaza. Settlers have carried out more than 1,000 attacks on Palestinians since October in the West Bank, causing deaths and damaging property, according to the U.N.

The land seizure, which was approved late last month but only publicized on Wednesday, comes after the seizure of 8 square kilometers (roughly 3 square miles) of land in the West Bank in March and 2.6 square kilometers (1 square mile) in February.

That makes 2024 by far the peak year for Israeli land seizure in the West Bank, Peace Now said.

By declaring them state lands, the government opens them up to being leased to Israelis and prohibits private Palestinian ownership.

Basicaly what they've done is turned Yoshi into a damn Car & it's permanent

So. I just tuned into another wayneradiotv stream. First one in a while. Once again it’s fucking insane

It’s a charity stream event for Palestine, cool! Baaulp is playing Root Beer Tapper. There’s twitch predictions for how far he’ll get, which is basically just gambling but instead of money it’s funne haha points you can use to get emotes with. Cool! I get a lot of points, someone gifts me a tier 1 sub, everything is fine!

Baaulp is confused about the betting. Doesn’t know what the fuck anybody is betting ON. Starts getting angry because it’s “ruining the vibe” and we’re turning his root beer tapper gameplay into a “whole thing”. Somebody tries to read donations and Baaulp fucking loses his shit. Entire chat, rtvs team, and even Baaulp himself falls silent. He’s in the zone. For 30 minutes plus the stream is nothing but Baaulp’s blank stare and the sounds of root beer tapper. Wayne puts up a text box on screen that reads “do not disturb Baaulp”. Predictions are still running in the background but with titles like “don’t tell Baaulp” and “I’m sorry Baaulp”. The next segment is supposed to begin and Baaulp doesn’t say anything, just continues to play Root Beer Tapper. He cannot be shaken. His webcam and gameplay is slowly dragged off screen with a cane png, the Root Beer Tapper music and sound effects growing quieter as it is. Baaulp never says a word. Break starts and everything is silent again

Unironically pretty normal rtvs stream considering they made the fucking live action spamton stream and hlvrai

I love my people and it's amazing to see so many of us turn up today, but it's like herding very friendly cats 😂

Just a reminder for people who may not know, in light of protestors at UCLA being shot in the face with rubber bullets— rubber bullets are not bullets made of rubber. They are metal bullets encased in rubber.

Despite being called “non-lethal” or sometimes “less lethal”, they are well known to cause death and permanent disability.

Here’s a photo showing their size— these are actual rubber bullets used during the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020.

Do not let them downplay the severity of what they are subjecting this students to for standing against genocide. Stay safe and stay educated.

EDIT: Twitter banned @/nosferatusexgod, the student shot, whose tweet I linked to (as a primary source) at the top of the post. Screenshots of the tweet I originally linked to can be found here.

None of the civilian deaths have been accidental.
