Israel is being portrayed as the victim as it launches a war of aggression against Iran. It's committing genocide, invading its neighbours, committing every war crime under the sun. Feel like you're losing your mind? Well, you're not. New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Israel is a nuclear armed genocidal rogue state. It is allowed to commit every war crime under the sun - armed and facilitated by the West. Yet you hear so few people saying these truths on TV. Here's what I said this morning.

64% of Israelis think "there are no innocent people in Gaza." It gets worse. That figure includes the 20% of Israel who are Palestinian citizens. 92% of them disagree. So that means Jewish Israeli overwhelmingly think there are no innocent people in Gaza.

I don't understand the critique of "the Madleen was an attention seeking stunt". Yes, and? It was a stunt to draw attention to Israel deliberately starving an entire people, facilitated by the West. That was literally the entire point

You won’t sanction Israeli ministers for perpetrating violence, just “inciting violence”. That’s because you’d need to admit Israel is committing war crimes, and thus take sweeping action. You won’t even admit their statements constitute genocidal intent. For the same reasons.

This is a huge scandal. As Foreign Secretary, David Cameron tried to intimidate the Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Courts into dropping his Israeli arrest warrants. A violation of international law - ignored by British news outlets.

Greta Thunberg and the Madleen offered a heart in a heartless world. They reminded us that Israel is deliberately starving an entire people - and the West could stop that at any moment. New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A state which treats Greta Thunberg and fellow activists as dangerous extremists because they're trying to alleviate the suffering of a deliberately starved people is a state which is going to lose.

The BBC is still promoting Israel's lies - 20 months into the genocide. Coverage of the aid massacres is another depraved case study in the biggest scandal of Western journalism of our time. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/bbc-promot...

Robert Jenrick once thought Brexit would "lead us to dystopia". He rebuked Suella Braverman for her extreme language. Now the soon-to-be Tory leader uses more extreme language than Nigel Farage. My new column on a dangerous opportunist 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This Republican Senator - a pro-Israel zealot and Trump ally - is openly threatening the life of Greta Thunberg and others on the Gaza aid ship. Why? Because they're trying to bring aid to a Gaza starved by a key US ally. The world is run by gangsters.

Despite the video evidence. Despite the witness testimonies. Despite the testimonies of aid agencies and doctors. Despite overwhelming evidence of Israel relentlessly lying about its atrocities. The BBC still muddies the water about today's Israel aid massacre.

Israel so-called 'aid' programme for Gaza isn't about feeding the survivors. It's just another phase in its genocide. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israels-ai...

Suddenly, powerful and influential people are condemning Israel. It's taken them 19 months of daily genocidal depravity. But Israel's genocide was obvious from the start - and I warned you then what the cheerleaders and the silent would do.

Stop what you're doing. The BBC are refusing to broadcast the film they commissioned on Israel's attacks on hospitals. Let's subscribe to the documentary makers - so we can ensure as many people watch it as possible if they release it themselves. Click here: www.youtube.com/@BasementFil...

You don't need to be a prophet. Images like this - of starved Palestinians hammed into fenced cages by Israel - will be remembered for generations as hideous evidence of a terrible crime. And history will remember not just those who cheered it on, but those who stayed silent.

Journalists who have taken until now to speak out about Israel's genocide have no excuses. All the evidence was there from the beginning. The likes of @scotnational.bsky.social called it right - and you treated them with contempt. A reckoning is coming 👇 thenational.scot/news/world/2...
