The Convention on Human Rights is one of the greatest achievements of European civilisation following one of its greatest tragedies. To join Russia in leaving it would be one of the biggest acts of national self-sabotage in history and have zero positive consequences www.bbc.com/news/article...

Happening now: Hundreds of rabbis and Jewish community members gather in Brooklyn for a mass public memorial service on Yom Kippur, demanding a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and for the U.S. to stop arming Israel.

If ever there was a time not to normalize Trump’s authoritarian fever dreams, this is it.

This should be impeachable. ‘War ravaged’ Portland? He’s insane - & insanely power hungry. The script is set - call an imaginary group a terror group and then send in the troops.

Starmer belongs in The Hague!!

“The time of…Benjamin Netanyahu coming to this city and then making military decisions from this city to kill civilians…has to come to an end.”

I asked @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social if he still plans to arrest Netanyahu if he comes to New York.

The Gaza aid flotilla has come under attack from drones and explosions.

Israel is scared of this flotilla.

Why? Because it proves that Israel's genocidal starvation of Gaza can be stopped - if there's the will.

I spoke to David Adler on the flotilla yesterday.

In retaliation for 11 countries recognising Palestine.

Netanyahu has just promised there will be NO Palestine, the West Bank and Gaza will be eradicated and replaced with Jewish settlements.

He is a War Criminal and the leaders of the world need to treat him as such.

Reform party will eventually come after citizens, with parents who were born abroad, like myself. My friends and I have had this discussion for some time. Make no joke about it, if they get into power they will need to continue to enrage the British voting public, they need chaos to thrive.

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this.

They are attacking the Police again, at the 'peaceful march'.

Imagine if Pro Palestine supporters did this (they never do), they would all be instantly in jail.

an eminent Jewish celebrity

to hide the fact
that equating Jewishness

It cannot be denied: this is a deliberate and coldly-calculated famine, engineered by a technologically-advanced state which knows exactly what it is doing.

The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza
Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

If the police arrest me for this, it's a direct attack on the expression of opinion: ie on free speech. But the Terrorism Act is so madly oppressive and loosely framed that I have no idea which side of it I'm on. And I suspect it's the same for them.

Think of all those pro-Israel pundits you saw on your television screens this past year trying to sociopathically justify the mass starvation of Gaza by robotically claiming Hamas steals the aid. They were all lying. Shamelessly. Even the Israeli military confirms it now.

For every politician and journalist who supported Israel's onslaught, or stayed silent:

This photograph should haunt you for the rest of your life.

You will never scrub the shame away. No future achievement, however great, will ever erase what you helped inflict on Gaza.

The world's most famous medical NGO concludes Israel is committing genocide.

It joins a consensus of genocide scholars, including in Israel, and NGOs like Amnesty International.

No politician or journalist can claim "I did not know at the time!" to evade future justice.
