We told GHF, US gov, & Israelis - if you do this, it will be the 2024 flour massacre 2.0 in #Gaza. Well, that is exactly what happened. A pointless & tragic loss of civilian life over food access, which has become militarized and leveraged for control. apnews.com/article/israel…

Starving Gazans packed behind fences for a scrap of aid. This isn’t relief—it’s humiliation and dehumanization by design. History won’t forget who watched and did nothing.

HUGE kudos to the #Trump admin -- especially @SecRubio & @SecScottBessent -- for moving so fast to waive #Syria sanctions. It took *9 days* to take decisive action & grasp the historic & strategic opportunity presented by the fall of 50+yrs of #Assad's regime rule in #Syria.
