We are going to war with Venezuela over drug trafficking.
Cocaine originates in Bolivia, Columbia and Peru and is largely trafficked over the Mexican border. Fentanyl is manufactured in Mexico, China and to some extent India and trafficked over the Mexican border.

We are the shithole nation.

The October ceasefire in Gaza has brought some desperately needed relief after two years of atrocities. But much more needs to be done.

Israel should fully lift its unlawful blockade and facilitate rebuilding. States should support accountability for grave crimes committed.

If nobody is prepared to admit they were responsible for blocking his family for coming to Britain with a valid explanation then they should be allowed to come. Officials need to change the mindset where the default position is to refuse permission.

The beloved Saleh Al-Jafarawi has been murdered. We are absolutely devastated. For 2 years he reported on the genocide of his people, just for him to be murdered during the ‘ceasefire’

“Stay with Gaza even after the war ends.”

Palestinian journalist Saleh Al-Jaafarawi sends a heartfelt message of thanks to everyone who supported, stood by, and protested for Gaza and the Palestinian cause.

Palestinians called on the world to #DisruptComplicity in Israel’s apartheid and genocide between 18-21 September. The world answered.

Keep up the momentum: we call for escalating disruptive BDS actions against complicit states, corporations and institutions.

Bari Weiss "is a self-described 'Zionist fanatic.' The idea that a 'neutral media organization' is led by someone who has a long history as a pro-Israel ideologue...is really worrying. I think there will be a lot more censorship of Palestinian voices." - me to Piers Morgan about CBS News and Weiss:

A couple of weeks ago I heard an Israeli Govt spokesperson on Piers Morgan’s show…

He said Israel had killed 20,000 Hamas terrorists

This week we learn:

18,457 children confirmed dead

55,000 children acutely malnourished

So a war on children as much as a war on Hamas.
