Scots are a people with the inherent and inalienable right of self-determination under the UN Charter. We have a right to national Independence

It is impossible to believe both that Scots have a right to self determination, and that Independence requires permission from London

They want to instil your obedience through terrifying you.

Meet “Gunter,” a Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier with tattoos of a swastika and the symbol of the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, alongside his comrade-in-arms with Stars of David tattooed on his chest.

The claim in Sir David Bell's report that 3 in 5 Jewish students have experienced antisemitism was based on just 29 people - and was untrue.

My latest for Double Down Newswatch.

By “antisemitism in schools” she means her daughter’s school organized a bake sale for Palestinian charities in November 2023 and when she threw a fit and forced the school to agree that all proceeds be split equally between Palestinian and Israeli charities the other parents voted to cancel the whole thing altogether.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

What a ridiculous lie. Its entire purpose is to stifle criticism of Israel and promote zionism.

[Josh MacAlister MP @JoshMacAlister]

51% of Jewish teachers - many of them NEU members - experienced antisemitism in school in the past year.

Fixing this starts with defining the problem. IHRA spotlights the insidious and often subtle nature of antisemitism. It doesn't stifle criticism of the government of Israel.

[Brad Lander @bradlander]

The Israeli Foreign Ministry is lying.

No coordination was required, and we were never told that it was. We were not in a restricted security area. We did not pass any checkpoints.

Palestinian farmers do not — and should not — need permits to harvest their own olive fields. But they fear doing so, because the IDF doesn’t protect them from settler violence.

We’re trying to model solidarity & co-existence between Jews and Palestinians, and to call attention to the horrors of the occupation. The Israeli government is trying to foment violence between Jews and Palestinians, and to make it impossible for Palestinians to harvest their olive groves, drive on their roads, or live in their homes.

So the Department of Education promotes schools waving Ukrainian flags, but Palestinian symbols are banned.

🚨 PLEASE SHARE!

I've written to both my children's schools following the Government's antisemitism review.

I WILL NOT accept genocide being presented as a two-sided political debate, or Palestinian history and suffering being erased from their education.

I've drafted a template which I'm sharing for other parents to use or adapt.

Political impartiality must NEVER become historical dishonesty.

Please use them. Challenge your schools. Demand answers.

@AlmsryB30746 If a government claims thousands of children are missing, it is reasonable to expect them to be able to provide the names of the missing children.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

Complete and utter rubbish, like the 70,000 machine gunned Iranian protestors.
Russia asked Zelensky for the names and details of these "tens of thousands" of children. They got 453 names.
Just under 200 of those were located in Ukraine. Russia is investigating the remaining 250.
Some of these were found unaccompanied in active war zones and removed for safety, and will be returned.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Tens of thousands, possibly hundreds of thousands, of Ukrainian children have been forced into Russia and this boot-licking spiv rolls out the tongue once more for “humanitarian” Putin. Infamy

[Nad @NadimHCr]

Imaging being a Palestinian teacher/doctor/nurse/human and your own identity can't be displayed because it is "antisemitic." This only confirms that Zionism is racism.

[Paul Holden @pauleholden]

That's straightforwardly wrong. How are you even a news reporter?

The report mentions Israel 60 times. It refers to Palestine/Palestinian 35 times. It mentions Zionism (or Zionist) 11 times.

It argues for the adoption of the IHRA Definition that includes numerous examples related to Israel. It says, explicitly, that anti-Zionism is antisemitic. It says, outrageously, that Muslims disproportionately hold antisemitic views. It says 45% of British people are antisemitic because they believe that Israel rates Palestinians like Nazis treated Jews.

I'd say this report has almost nothing to do with antisemitism at all - it is almost entirely about Israel. Entirely.

It's two key recommendations are to encourage all schools to adopt the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism, which is plainly discriminatory towards people holding anti-Zionist beliefs; and for Prevent to be more actively engaged in helping schools deal with antisemitic incidents.

It is an inflammatory, quite disgraceful report, that, if implemented, will create severe crises in schools across the country and lead to the systematic persecution and harassment of children and teachers expressing anti-Zionist views - including anti-Zionist Jewish students and teachers.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

@rUperNOr @PourrBaba @ethan_beard1920 That happens, but it is most certainly not at all the only time the subject arises.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

I watched the film The Brutalist at the weekend.
A monstrous concrete slab of zionist propaganda.

[Dr Ruby (she/her) jaboukies everything @PaperWhispers]

95%* of Black children in the UK have heard or directly experienced racist abuse at school.

It is interesting that there was no action taken after that report.

Entire country is on its arse, Minority groups are under attack by a new wave of Nazism, your Bills are going up 25%, but all you get, is wall to wall "Antisemitism" & how criticism of Israel is somehow worse than The genocide they're guilty of.
Aren't you all fucking tired?!

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

Saudi Arabia has been executing dissidents, jailing journalists, and conducting a war in Yemen that has produced one of the worst humanitarian crises on earth.

Britain, France, and America have sold it weapons throughout.

Not reluctantly. Not with conditions. Enthusiastically, with trade delegations and arms fairs and billions in contracts.

The same governments that speak about Muslim extremism as an "existential threat" to "Western values" are the primary suppliers of the regime that funds the specific theological tradition, Wahhabism, most associated with the extremism they claim to be fighting.

This is not a paradox.

It is a policy.

The extremism is useful. The weapons sales are profitable. The humanitarian crisis in Yemen is not a television story in most Western countries.

If you want to understand Islamophobia, not as a cultural accident but as a political function, start here.

Start with who benefits from a population that fears Islam in the abstract and cannot see the arms deal in the specific.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

The more children Israel kills, the more the official discourse is dominated by the complete fiction that “antisemitism” is a major problem in Israel’s allied countries.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

@AnneKhodabandeh I think the "protest good, riot bad" distinction is a diversion from the argument.

[Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg]

It takes a lot to get tens of thousands of people to riot. For it to happen simultaneously across several countries points to a supranational underlying cause, as opposed to local grievance at
