Anti-Zionist Professor David Miller has had his X account limited for exposing an Izrahelli Lobby plot

After Miller exposed a conspiracy by the Zionist Lobby in the UK to cancel rap group Kneecap’s performance at Glastonbury Festival, he has come under attack himself.

Z1os hate the truth.

If every sexual offence reported last year resulted in a riot, there would have been 1,615. There weren't though. Were there?

I just watched Blue Road: The Edna O'Brien Story on Sky Arts

Tears. Nods. Applause. Laughter

One of the most beautiful documentaries I have ever seen.
Sinead O'Shea is an astonishing film maker. I'm an instant fan

I'm now going to read every book Edna O'Brien wrote

Every measure by which we established what happened in Bosnia was genocide has been surpassed in Gaza and the UK government is complicit in it.
Would the government extend this reasoning to other duties? Duties of care only come into play when someone actually dies? “The government argues no violation of the duty to prevent such a genocide “can occur unless and until there is actually a genocide”.”

When I was researching VAWG for #ShiftTheShame campaign
I read from women of experience and #WomensAid that it is hugely risky to holiday with an abusive partner
For some reason it is a major trigger to abusers and women need to have a plan in place to get away and home safely.

A world historical crime, taking place in full view, with the perpetrators so convinced of their impunity that they can brag about genocidal intent, and it’s hard not to agree with their calculation that no one will stop them and no one will be held accountable

🔥 This is important. Really important.

And none of the mainstream media are reporting it.

So please read and share — because we are the news community for ourselves and the “mainstream” media are utterly hopeless for meaningful news.
