A report from BT'selem has described "a systemic, institutional policy focused on the continual abuse and torture of all Palestinian prisoners".https://t.co/DuQv7topIY
@codepinkalert Congressman Van Orden Caught Lying 🤥 Rep. Derrick Van Orden falsely accused CODEPINK’s Palestine campaign coordinator Nour Jaghama of assaulting him after he ran into her, then used social media to incite hate against CODEPINK, linking us to terrorism. This baseless arrest and Van Orden’s remarks have endangered Nour and our organization. We’ve filed a complaint with the Congressional Ethics Committee and urge our community to do the same. Let’s hold Van Orden accountable! https://codepink.org/vanorden

@codepinkalert The White House claims Rep. Cori Bush's remarks on AIPAC are divisive and unhelpful. But what's truly unhelpful is sending billions to a country committing genocide. United and undivided, we say: We're coming to tear AIPAC's kingdom down.
