“Over the past three and a half years Israeli authorities have accelerated a state-sponsored campaign of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, uprooting, dispossessing and forcibly transferring Palestinian communities,” Agnes Callamard, Amnesty International’s secretary general, said in a statement.

“This is not the work of rogue actors or what the international community has repeatedly labelled as extremist settlers, organizations or one or two ministers. What we are witnessing is deliberate, state-led annexation, in complete violation of international law unfolding before the eyes of the entire world,” said the report.

“The international community has either been complicit in or far too passive in the face of Israel’s repeated and gross violations of international law, and its flouting of UN General Assembly and Security Council resolutions. It must clearly signal that the era of tacit acquiescence to Israel’s ethnic cleansing and annexation is over,” it added.

Peters was convicted in 2024 after prosecutors showed she facilitated unauthorized access to Mesa County voting equipment and helped expose sensitive system data. Her actions were driven by the explosion of far-right conspiracy theories that the 2020 election was stolen from President Donald Trump through voting machines that switched votes to help former President Joe Biden win.

The Colorado judge who sentenced Peters to nine years in prison called her a “charlatan” who peddled “snake oil” and said she showed no remorse for her actions.

But Gov. Jared Polis (D) commuted Peters’ sentence last month, after months of pressure from Trump, MAGA fanatics, and election deniers. In Polis’ letter to Peters informing her that her sentence would be commuted, Polis wrote that Peters learned her lesson.

“Importantly, your application demonstrates taking responsibility for your crimes, and a commitment to follow the law going forward,” Polis said.

Needed to look up old posts for some technical support. Man, they are really trying to clean up their decimated image huh?

Thankfully uBlock removed it.
