NEW | U.S. Demands Return of Undetonated Israeli Bomb After Strike on Lebanon

U.S. is now pressuring Lebanon to return an undetonated GBU-39 bomb fired by Israel during its strike in Beirut’s southern suburbs. The failed bomb, found intact, has raised Washington’s alarm that it could fall into “Russian or Chinese hands”.

Israel’s strike killed five civilians and wounded 28, targeting residential buildings in a blatant violation of international law and the one year old ceasefire.

The GBU-39, a precision glide bomb used extensively by Israel in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria, is a key tool in Israel’s campaign of assassinations and strikes across the region.

Just so you know how deprived and lacking of humanity some people are, please read this and report and block the accounts that are spreading these conspiracy theories about Gaza Verified and our friends and families in Gaza.

Israel’s genocide is not limited to the physical erasure of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank but aims to completely erase Palestinians from all aspects of life – both offline and online.

We may be helpless when it comes to what Israel’s military is doing on the ground but we have an opportunity here, together, to say “not on our watch” and not on the fediverse.

To be accurate, asking #Eurovision to ban #Israel is like asking Apple to stop selling Iphones to USA, since #Moroccanoil Israel, Ltd. became the main sponsor ("presenting partner") of the Eurovision Song Contest in 2020, with its hairstylists working on the performers and hosts backstage at the 2019 edition in Tel Aviv and the contest's red carpet event has been changed to a "turquoise carpet" after the company's brand colour.

- Someone denying the existence of genocide victims and working to get them banned from Mastodon servers

Some Mastodon server admins: “We literally cannot see a difference between the two.”

You wanna know the difference? You already know who you would want with you when you’re faced with a fascist in a dark alley. Unless, of course, that’s the one character you identify with most in this post.

The Mayor of Gaza said that the situation in the city remains extremely difficult, with aid falling far short of basic needs, particularly in sanitation and public services.

He explained that a severe shortage of fuel has forced the municipality to reduce operations, and that Israeli occupation restrictions preventing access to waste disposal sites outside urban areas have pushed them toward unhealthy alternative solutions.

As Israel is cleared to compete, Eurovision’s future hangs in the balance

The European Broadcasting Union will allow Israel to compete at next year’s contest, a decision that has prompted four countries to boycott the event. Roisin O’Connor asks whether Eurovision can ever get back to the joyful celebration it once was
,,,
By banning Russia in 2022, a precedent was set.

Irish broadcaster RTE said taking part would be “unconscionable given the appalling loss of lives in Gaza and the humanitarian crisis there, which continues to put the lives of so many civilians at risk”.

Spain’s culture minister, Ernest Urtasun, backed the boycott by national broadcaster RTVE, commenting: “You can’t whitewash Israel given the genocide in Gaza. Culture should be on the side of peace and justice. I’m proud of an RTVE that puts human rights before any economic interest.” It is safe to presume that other countries might follow suit.

After the European Broadcast Union (#EBU) decided not to put the participation of #Israel to #Eurovision 2026 to the votes, #BoycottEurovision is finally becoming a thing.

Boycotting countries so far:

• Ireland
• Spain
• Netherlands
• Slovenia

To be decided:

• Belgium
• Iceland

Eurovision took a brave stance to support the rights of LGBTQ+ minorities in times when they were still denied in their own home countries.

They also took a brave stance by excluding Russia from the festival after it attacked Ukraine.

But they’re failing to take a clear stance against this #genocide, proving their partisanship in the minorities that they decide to support and the aggressors they decide to condemn.

Hence it’s everybody’s duty to ensure that Eurovision 2026 will be about the Israeli music act alone, with no audiences to watch and cheer for them.
