Jonathan Reynolds says the situation in Gaza is appalling

The UK govt refuses to impose sanctions on Israel & refuses to stop exporting arms & providing military assistance to them. The UK govt is a partner in Israels war crimes. And that includes Reynolds.

Wishing everyone a joyful Easter.

Thinking of Palestinian Christians in Gaza marking a second Easter under genocide, & in occupied East Jerusalem, where Israeli soldiers attacked worshippers at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

May we fight for justice, freedom & peace for all.

It’s tremendously evil for Western governments to ignore their citizens desperately urging them to stop using their money to commit war crimes and burn families alive. How society is still functioning as normal against this fucked up backdrop will never not be devastating.

The maintenance cost of the 'special relationship' is being paid with Palestinian lives.
