Media reporting that dehumanises #Palestinians makes their killing more acceptable.
I wrote about this, and the importance of including context and more Palestinian voices in media coverage of the Israeli military’s assault on #Gaza for @_ibt.
Since October 7, @MedicalAidPal have received an unprecedented amount of media attention.
But, as @MaxSlaughter tells us, media reporting that portrays Palestinians as less than human makes their killing more acceptable. #IBTBlog

Barely one in 10 voters are satisfied with the Government’s performance:
A figure comparable to the proportion of the public who believe the moon landings were staged.

Every personal attack.
Every attempt to distract or to divide.
It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

Israel's cheerleaders have opportunistically seized on a heinous antisemitic attack to silence opponents of genocide.
Our freedoms are being stolen - and we are headed to a very dark place.

Israel’s relentless destruction of #Gaza and targeting of the #Palestinian civilian population show no sign of abating, with at least 17 killed in attacks since dawn.

“A mother stranded in Gaza City says she and her daughters are ‘waiting to die’.”
Devastating report by @FrankelJulia as Israel advances its military invasion of #GazaCity.

“Without international action deterring Israel from annexing the occupied #WestBank or destroying #Gaza, there won’t be any #Palestine left to recognise.” – @Beltrew.

Israel’s intensified military invasion of #GazaCity is threatening to force the suspension of @MedicalAidPal’s health and humanitarian operations in the city.
The UK must act to stop this genocide and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

We condemn in the strongest terms the draconian sanctions imposed by The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on our organisations: @alhaq_org , @AlMezanCenter & @pchrgaza/1
"The belief that recognition will spur international action is unfounded. If the world will not intervene to stop a genocide, why would it act merely because one UN member state is occupying another?"

#Gaza has been held underwater for 22 months, allowed to gasp for air only when Israeli authorities face pressure from those with more leverage than international law itself. Starvation isn’t a logistical failure. It’s a political choice. My opinion piece: https://t.co/xNfA0gZ3ff
Israel has deliberately starved the people of Gaza.
It said it was starving Gaza over and over again.
It has done so systematically - with the full complicity of the West.

David Lammy is betting that those complicit in Israel’s genocide will never go to prison.
He bets that Western and Israeli impunity will protect him and the other Guilty Men and Women forever.
It is a bet he may find he’ll lose.
