Name them, shame them, charge them with war crimes. This is the face of a criminal regime. If Beni Aharon claims he didn't commit these atrocities he can turn himself in at the Hague. At least he will get a fair hearing. That is much more than Hind Rajab got from the Israeli murder squad.

Good for Rosie Barton and David Cochrane for pointing out that The Rebel people confronted journalists, including them, and wilfully disrupted the debate coverage and ended the after-debate scrum with leaders. Cochrane called out the rage farming for profit. Massive failure by the debate commission

I'll admit it. I love Jesus. I just don't like any of his so-called friends. I was raised on a gospel that said we must help the poor, feed the hungry and fight for those in prison. When I see a politician playing the religion card I know people are about to be fleeced. I don't trust any of them.
