Let see the trump administration try and get out of this and simultaneously deny leading an autocratic rogue state that will illegally murder innocent citizens in broad daylight. Did I hear this is four block from Floyd's murder? That ICE agent has to face justice.
It seems that the US authorities place a very low value on the lives of American citizens!
Forensic analysis of objective video evidence. This is how you serve readers searching for clarity.

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.

Let’s be clear: if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die, the government will bear moral responsibility | George Monbiot
The three remaining hunger strikers have been convicted of nothing. Yet with astonishing cruelty, ministers refuse to listen to their reasonable demands, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The main reason @ukparliament.parliament.uk are still using X Twitter is they want access to the child abuse images.

I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

Welcome to the Age of Enshittification where culture has been destroyed by the tech oligarchs
Like totalitarian dictators, Silicon Valley billionaires control the means of production, distribution and exchange when it comes to modern culture
Their vampire thirst for money has turned it all to shit

I was enshittified – the digital rot eating our books, music and films
Digital firms have taken art and entertainment, bought it up, repackaged it and sold it back to us as substandard crap. Neil Mackay is mad as hell…

I wonder how far Scotland is down the list for next line of US "investment".
And how much Starmer & Nige will help them.
Still there's Venezuela, Greenland and Canada to keep them sated for maybe a decade. Maybe...
Commit all your atrocities at once. Every 4 years.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.
