On November 2, 2026, Israel continued its daily slaughter. Here are the people it killed over those 24 hours:
1( Mahmoud Jihad Qaffa, 46, Khan Younis. Israeli fire hit the al-Yabani neighborhood on Monday morning. He was killed. Several others were wounded.
2) Asaad Suleiman Qashta, Khan Younis. An Israeli drone struck the Bir 19 junction in al-Mawasi, where families live in tents. He was killed. A woman and two girls were among the wounded.
3) Ibrahim Amer al-Saaida, 40, al-Masdar, central Gaza. An Israeli quadcopter dropped a bomb on a group of residents. The shrapnel killed him. Two others were wounded.
4) Hani Hamed Kahil, Gaza City. An Israeli strike hit the car he was in near a mosque in Tel al-Hawa. He was killed. Five others were wounded.
5) Yousef Abu Younis, 45, Khan Younis. He was a police lieutenant. An Israeli drone struck him and his fellow officers in al-Mawasi on Sunday. He died of his wounds on Monday morning. He is the sixth to die from that strike.
Just another random day of a supposed ceasefire. But every day, Israel kills multiple people.
The numbers: 5 people killed in these 24 hours.
Gaza: 74,609 killed since Oct 7, 2023, 1,593 of them since the October 2025 ceasefire
West Bank including East Jerusalem: at least 1,143, including 243 children
Lebanon: 8,956 since Oct 8, 2023, 4,389 of them since March 2, 2026
Syria: at least 558 in 2024 and 2025. No official total exists and this count is partial

We got your back, New York!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

This Islamophobia Awareness Month, we must shine a light on the abhorrent hatred and discrimination Muslims continue to face.
In the last year alone, religious hate crimes targeting Muslims rose by 15% in England and Wales.
This is utterly unacceptable. London will always stand against hatred, prejudice and discrimination.

UK security agencies still assess Islamist extremism as the largest terrorism threat. MI5's Islamist-related caseload remains roughly 75% of its counter-terrorism work, according to recent threat assessments.

Michigan Republicans, funded by Musk and other billionaires, have no answers to the struggles facing working families.
Instead they are resorting to Islamophobia and are running the most racist campaign in recent history.
Together, let's defeat bigotry and elect Abdul El-Sayed.

Michigan, let’s win this together.

I’m deeply alarmed by Israeli actions in the occupied West Bank.
Settlements are expanding, evictions are unrelenting with Palestinians driven from their lands, settler violence is surging, Palestinian families are being assaulted.
We are seeing an increasingly coercive environment, with the spectre of ethnic cleansing looming ever larger.
This must end.
There can be no durable peace in the Middle East without the realization of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people to self-determination.

Thank you Grand Rapids!
When we send Abdul El-Sayed to the U.S. Senate, we are going to send a profound message:
NO to hatred, bigotry and diviseness
NO to oligarchy
NO to authoritarianism
Let’s get it done.

Seven years ago, Lula was in prison serving an unjust conviction.
Today, he is the re-elected president of Brazil.
In 2018, he said “there is no point in trying to end my ideas, they are already lingering in the air”.
Lula’s ideas don't just linger. They live!
Viva Lula!

🇵🇸🇧🇩 “The people of Bangladesh, who believe in democracy, remain deeply concerned about the plight of the freedom-seeking Palestinian people. Bangladesh once again reaffirms its unwavering support for their legitimate demands, including their right to self-determination and their right to establish an independent state of Palestine.”

Editorial:
"That Pakistan is increasingly importing what it once produced competitively in quantities sufficient to feed its textile industry, [...] speaks volumes about the extent of the policy rot."

کچھ عرصہ قبل آکسفورڈ یونیورسٹی نے دنیا کی قدیم ترین یونیورسٹیوں کا نقشہ شائع کیا تھا، دنیا کی پہلی تین یونیورسٹیاں اسلامی تھیں، جو مسلمانوں نے تعمیر کی تھیں:
1- الزیتونہ یونیورسٹی تیونس (737 عیسوی)
2-القراویین یونیورسٹی مراکش (859ء)
3_ مصر میں الازہر الشریف (972ء)
4_یونیورسٹی آف بولوگنا اٹلی میں (1088ء)
5- آکسفورڈ یونیورسٹی (1096 عیسوی)
بی بی سی کی ایک پوسٹ "انگریزوں نے برصغیر کا نظام تعلیم برباد کیا" کے مطابق، ماہر تعلیم اور مصنف پروفیسر پروشوتم اگروال نے بیان دیا کہ؛ انگریزوں کی برصغیر آمد سے قبل برصغیر کے لوگ 70% فیصد تعلیم یافتہ تھے اور انگلینڈ(برطانیہ) کے لوگ صرف 17% فیصد ہی پڑھے لکھے تھے - انگریزوں نے ہندوستان کے نظام تعلیم کو بردباد کیا اور سینکڑوں سالوں سے چلنے والے مدارس کو بند کردیا جہاں دینی اور سیکولر(دنیاوی) تعلیم ایک ساتھ دی جاتی تھی -
مغل بادشاہ اورنگزیب عالمگیر کی موت کے وقت ہندوستان کی جی ڈی پی پیداوار دنیا کی کل جی ڈی پی پیداوار کا 25 % فیصد تھی ، یعنی ہندوستان پوری دنیا کی کل پیداوار کا ایک بڑا چوتھائی حصہ اکیلے ہی دے رہا تھا اور لوگ بے روزگار بھی نہیں تھے، برطانوی راج کے اختتام تک یہ بڑی پیداوار کم ہوتے ہوتے صرف چار 4 % فیصد رہ گئی تھی. کیونکہ انگریزی لوٹ کھسوٹ اور ناقص پالیسیوں کے باعث بدترین قحط اس خطے میں پڑے تھے اور لاکھوں لوگ بھوک افلاس کی وجہ سے لقمہ اجل بنے.
انگریزوں نے نہ صرف برصغیر کے تعلیمی نظام کو تباہ کیا بلکہ یہاں کی معیشت کو بھی بری طرح سے مفلوج کردیا، سندھ سے سونے کے ڈھیروں ذخائر خالی کردیے، سندھ کا چوری کیا ہوا سارا سونا برطانیہ منتقل کیا. یہی سلوک افریقہ کے ساتھ فرانس نے کیا
