I call for an independent investigation into why the squad pretends to be progressive yet assimilated into the corporate structure. Someone real please challenge these and other corporate representatives and clear out the government and start over.

Shireen Abu Akleh was a causality of the PA.

All Palestinians have a right to defend themselves from occupiers. If the Ukrainians have a right to defend themselves against occupation, then surely Palestinians also have a right to defend themselves against occupation.
