“It’s because Satan was unavailable.”
@ayocaesar on why former prime minister Tony Blair was invited to White House meetings to discuss postwar Gaza.
Last month, the Financial Times reported that Tony Blair's thinktank was involved in Trump’s ‘Riviera of the Middle East’ Gaza project. The plan aimed to attract private investors and included a pitch deck showing Gaza transformed into a luxury resort — “basically a way of glamorising ethnic cleansing.”

"We truly believe the Palestinian people's oppression is our oppression. Until they are not oppressed, we ourselves are oppressed. The moment your humanity is destroyed, I become less human." South Africa govt's @Chrispin_JPhiri on why they led the genocide case against Israel
THE BBC WAS COMPLICIT WAY BACK IN 2009.
The BBC was shit in 2009 and are worse then shit now.
They Highlight selective stories, distorting language, obfuscating facts & churning out lies that dehumanise Palestinians.
ALL BECAUSE THE FRIENDS OF ISRAEL TOLD THEM TO‼️
By the way, Tony Benn was a legend.
Zbigniew Brzezinski was a top US foreign policy official, not at all a radical, in fact the opposite. But he acknowledged truths about Israel that will end your career. Just look at this interview from 2002, when Israel was doing another one of its routine massacres of Palestinians:
"I think Israel's international position is very badly damaged. A country which started off as a symbol of recovery of a people who were greatly persecuted now looks like a country that is persecuting people. And that's very bad."
"The Israelis are becoming increasingly like the white supremacist South Africans, viewing the Palestinians as a lower form of life, not hesitating to kill a great many of them and justifying this on the grounds that they are being the objects of terrorism."
"But you cannot define the loss of human life in terms of the number of Israelis killed by inexcusable Palestinian terror. The fact of the matter is that three times as many Palestinians have been killed, and a relatively small number of them were really militants. Most were civilians. Some hundreds were children."
In the last couple of weeks I've learned from the police / media if I want to avoid going missing or being murdered I need to:
Not be too ambitious or high-achieving.
Not earn more than my partner (too late)
Not go to a park.
Not to drink alcohol.
Not to go through menopause.
Have you read the first page of your passport? As a former refugee, I do, I never take for granted my good fortune at being welcomed to make it my home. Her Majesty the Queen symbolised freedom and safety to me as a little girl. I never forgot it.
The murder of 18-year-old Lily Sullivan by Lewis Haines has not prompted a huge amount of coverage, but the sheer casualness of this 31-year-old man's evil is terrifying. A man who killed a woman because she rejected him.
These are the words read in court from Lily's mum Anna:
