Three months ago #Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar said the govt had frozen aid into #Gaza b/c Hamas wouldn’t fold on ceasefire negotiations; an open admission of politicising aid. NGOs & leaders now believe the GHF is a plan to use aid as leverage over civilians, a clear breach of int law.

Jon Stewart is a legend & the way this show is trying to explain to a mainstream audience the gravity what is happening in the US is amazing. It was both thrilling & terrifying to be part of it. Thank you @TheDailyShow 👏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG7C...

I made a video essay explaining why, in my view, Israel is committing genocide under international law. I hope this helps frame the issue a little bit better and explain why there is a consensus among academics that this is indeed a genocide. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmCl...

Those who look at the Israeli government and say "but this is not what Zionism is really about" sound very much like "real communism has never been tried" types. If you have some utopia in your head, good for you. But what are you doing against the actually-existing depraved regime in place?

#Gaza #EU No further investigation needed. The @ec.europa.eu has an obligation to act without hesitation as guardian of the 🇪🇺 treaties and suspend the EU-Israël association agreement with immediate effect. I spoke with #BBCNews this week👇

Haaretz’s Yaniv Kubovich reports that Israel plans to seize 75% of Gaza and relocate more than 1,3 million Palestinians in the upcoming offensive, ultimately forcing the entire population into three military zones with food supplies strictly controlled by GHF/Israel. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

BREAKING: An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter has killed at least 25 Palestinians, mostly women and children, Gaza's Health Ministry said. The school was hit three times while people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, they added.

Unless you are actively using your Twitter (latterly known as X) account to monitor, report or fight against this racism and other abuses, you surely have to ask yourself why you are giving tacit support to this sewer of a platform. This includes many MPs of course.

This racist stalker on X explains why he is confident in his sense of impunity for racist abuse on the platform. (He may be proved right about that, but let's see)

THREAD on the *desperate* medical situation in Gaza from a presentation by UNRWA director at the World Health Assembly. This thread was written by Prof Anthony Costello over on X - I think it's important to share as widely as possible, so I have transferred to here. Please read and share! 0/11

“What is needed to stop this is not words, but it’s action…people taking some decisive action against…a televised slaughter [in Gaza]” @mehdirhasan.bsky.social talks to British surgeon in Gaza Tom Potokar who is says he is tired of sharing stories of ‘utter horror’ and ‘suffering’
