Why is the Guardian still calling them evacuations when the IDF has said it will not allow people to return, not to mention that evacuation implies a move to a safe place? Also I feel the ICC/Netanyahu crimes against humanity warrant needs to be built in to the context setting.

Now that the International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant for committing war crimes, will those supplying them weapons to commit those crimes also face charges if they don't stop?

The ICC arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, Yoav Gallant and Mohammed Deif make clear that to continue selling arms to Israel is to aid and abet war crimes. It is utterly indefensible.

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (19th century): one who pays great attention to trivial matters as a way of avoiding the important ones.

Joe Biden has approved the provision of anti-personnel landmines in Ukraine - a move that will endanger civilian life for years to come.

As a signatory of the UN Anti-Personnel Landmines Convention, the UK government must condemn this irresponsible move.

Following an FOI request by
@theSNP, the Labour UK government confirmed that the Chancellor held ZERO meetings with Labour MSPs ahead of the budget.
That includes their leader in Scotland, Anas Sarwar.
They didn't just fail to stand up for Scotland - they didn't even try.

Hidden in the misty cloud forests, the Monkey Orchid astonishes with its perfect mimicry - a flower that blooms with a face, complete with haunting eyes and a nose.

This surreal creation of nature seems to stare back, blurring the line between plant and animal in a mesmerizing botanical illusion.

There should be a full embargo on all UK arms sales to Israel.

While Starmer and Lammy might prevaricate on genocide (the ICJ said plausible months ago), there is no doubt that war crimes and ethnic cleansing are happening - in which the UK is complicit.

Imagine a world where we had peace makers, not endless wars.
Unfortunately, it's only in our imagination as the rich have been using peasants to fight endless wars for five thousand years
