A new legal theory suggests that oil companies could be taken to court for every kind of homicide in the United States, short of first-degree murder. The idea of “climate homicide” is getting attention in law schools and district attorney’s offices around the country. A paper published in Harvard Environmental Law Review last week argues…

Israel’s war on Gaza has displaced 85 percent of the territory’s population amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while most of the enclave’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the United Nations.
”Polls show over 70% of frightened Israelis want NO RESPONSE to Iran’s symbolic massive drone and missile attack WITHOUT VICTIMS in response to the Israeli massacre in its Damascus Embassy. Israel’s allies refuse to back it in a revenge attack. Israel appears to have finally LOST IMPUNITY as Iran also destroyed one military base with hypersonic missiles”.
The health ministry in Gaza said on Thursday that at least 33,970 people have been killed in the territory during more than six months of Israeli blitz.

Charities say authorities are clearing out homeless people ahead of the Games this summer. For many this is their second eviction
Migrants, Roma evicted from squats ahead of Paris 2024 Olympics,
French police have carried out a large-scale eviction at the country’s biggest squat in Paris, just 100 days before the Olympic Games are due to start in the city, local media have reported.
The squat, in an abandoned bus company headquarters in Vitry-sur-Seine, had been home to up to 450 people, including 20 children and 50 women, according to aid workers.
At least ten children reportedly attended local schools.
Images of the eviction on Wednesday rapidly spread across social media.
Footage showed officers forcing their way into the camp and examining locked rooms as they oversaw the removal of residents. Makeshift beds and furniture were seen on the floors and in the hallways of the building, along with abandoned personal belongings.
Evicted migrants gathered outside with packed suitcases, while others were seen boarding buses.
Activists have linked the move to the broader effort by Paris authorities to clear out migrants and others sleeping rough in the city before the summer Olympics. They claim the government has launched the campaign to make the French capital “more presentable.”
“The squat was the biggest in France. It doubled in size in one year because of the Olympics. Last year, authorities cleared out migrants from nearby the Olympic Village, and many displaced people came here,” Paul Alauzy of the NGO Medecins du Monde told the AP.
Alauzy, who is also a spokesperson for Revers de la Medaille (The Medal’s Other Side), a collective of charities and aid workers, said homeless people and squats have been steadily cleared out for the past year.

Aid workers have warned that the Olympics are affecting the most vulnerable homeless people in the Paris area as those evicted are not provided with longer-term housing assistance.
When asked about Wednesday’s evacuation, French Sports Minister Amelie Oudea-Castera said “it has nothing to do with the Olympics,” according to the AP.
Earlier, French authorities claimed that the recent relocations were the result of emergency accommodation centers reaching saturation, claiming that the measure is unrelated to the Games, which the media disputed..
