“Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz earlier ordered the military to prevent the ship from breaking the blockade of Gaza. Israel says the blockade is necessary to prevent weapons from reaching Hamas.” THEY ARE UNARMED RELEASE THEM

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen. This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple European citizens on board. Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

I would argue that in addition to the "reluctance to consult agreeably" - its that the "Crown's" version of consultation does not permit dissent. No mechanism within the process of consultation exists for Indigenous people to veto projects they would deem harmful to them or their lands.

Palestinians are being massacred in Gaza day after day after day and yet I still here some people telling me how happy they are that Trump has had a falling out with Netanyahu. Who cares?! Netanyahu is still killing kids with Trump’s blessing. That’s all that matters.

This is a little too on the nose even for theorists of racial capitalism: The FBI has been told to dial back their policing of white collar crime and instead to focus one-third of their time on immigration enforcement. www.reuters.com/world/us/fbi...

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people. Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise." Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically why vaccine trials don't use placebo arms. Ethical violation as POLICY.

On my last night as MP, I thank Jack Layton for inspiring me to run for public office. Jack made me believe it was possible to do politics with integrity. He loved our country and he loved people. He said politics was about getting your hands dirty and taking chances to make life better for people

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is not a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...
