On Western corporate media

"“Israel Rescues 4 Hostages in Military Operation; Gazan Officials Say Scores Are Killed,” reads a New York Times headline from Saturday"
"This would be like a headline saying “dozens” of people were killed on 9/11 instead of “thousands”;"
"Four Israeli hostages were definitely rescued by Israel, while Gazan officials are alleging that scores were killed. Scores of what? Cats? Chickens? Israelis?"

@NotImpressed @palestine Not only were a hundred, or hundreds, of Palestinian civilians killed, including children, there’s a suggestion that the clumsy rescue mission resulted in 3 other Israeli hostages being killed. If true, Israelis will soon find out.

Israeli settlers cut down olive and citrus trees during their assault on the town of Qusra in the occupied West Bank.

@appassionato @palestine This has been happening for decades, sadly, and our Western governments say nothing, do nothing. Palestinians seem to be expendable pawns in their power games. 😢

@ferryoons @appassionato @palestine Yes, I used to be able to buy it in the supermarket but I didn’t buy it often once they stopped selling it. There was a woman near me who sold it sometimes. I’ve started ordering it online since last October. Even gave some as Christmas presents.

"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children against deadly childhood diseases. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." — Michael Okuda

Without vaccines, many transmissible diseases were once an early death sentence. People are so quick to forget how fortunate we are to have access to them.

@luckytran Better nutrition, improved living conditions also helped along with advances in Medicine, including care of expectant mothers. Vaccines are important but they’re not the only factor.
