If you're concerned about the erosion of anti racist norms and the rise of the far right, you have to factor in two solid years of bipartisan British complicity in this genocide. What do you think our government's role in this racist bloodbath tells us about the state of our political culture?
Analysts told me that they agree with @amnesty.org in that Israel's genocide in Gaza is not over.
The mass killing has slowed but the conditions for life & society have been destroyed and are not being allowed to be rebuilt.

What about middle aged Jewish people who learned about Israel by reading books and traveling there and still concluded it's an apartheid state?
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”
