Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

I am horrified by Western silence, but not surprised. MSM doesn't do anything that would upset Trump or Israel. This is not a peace deal. Palestinians are living in hell.

If genocide in Israel appears to have dropped off the radar, that's deliberate; it has more to do with Editorial decisions than supposed 'ceasefires' - Israeli aircraft carried out raids on Bani Suheila, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza just this morning.

I don’t need to explain why it’s wildly unacceptable for the military to be illegally privately financed by the president’s wealthy allies, right?

Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud’s reports that the physical yellow markers on the ground that demarcate the Yellow Line are only present in very few areas. Families trying to return to their homes are being fired upon and killed in these “free fire zones.”

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

The silence of the Westminster lobby as one of their own backs calls for me — an elected Member of Parliament — to be deported is telling.

No condemnation, just bootlicking of their proprietors and jostling for Zone 2 dinner party invites.

Our media class is rotten to the core.
