Remember when Rafah was the so called red line? Now we have openly planned genocide and ethnic cleansing with reports of chemical weapons being used against United Nations peacekeepers. Where is the so called world order? Leadership? International laws?
Tomorrow's front page of @ScotNational.
We publish a timeline of a year of Israel's bombardment of Gaza. It's all here in black and white - the war crimes, murdered journalists, flattened hospitals, orphaned children. 7567 words, 42,000 deaths. Don't look away.
RIC members will be at the @believeinscot rally marking the #indyref anniversary outside Holyrood this evening. We urge indy supporters to attend.
If you see our flags, come over and speak to us about why any renewal of the independence campaign needs to be on a radical basis.
✊ The rally for independence is tomorrow! Help us send our message, loud and clear, that we won't stop, we will campaign till we win and we will win because independence is normal.

Alistair McConnachie, who leads extremist unionist group A Force For Good and denies that gas chambers were used to murder Jews in Nazi Germany, is at the far-right rally in George Square carrying a red and blue flag that says “Secure Our Borders”.
It is incumbent on all of us, across the constitutional divide, to turn out in large numbers to show their racism is rejected in Scotland – and to ensure they cannot carry out violent or destructive acts targeting our neighbours from religious and ethnic minority backgrounds.
A Force For Good, a unionist organisation led by Holocaust denier Alistair McConnachie, has joined convicted criminal Tommy Robinson and other malicious forces in promoting this event, which is being billed as the first mass anti-immigration rally in Glasgow’s recent history.
The “pro-UK rally” set to take place in George Square on Saturday afternoon is being organised and supported by the same extremists who orchestrated recent scenes of violence and destruction in English cities and Belfast, targeting Muslims and refugees in particular.
The Radical Independence Campaign will tomorrow join anti-racist campaigners, trade unionists, socialists and ordinary Glaswegians in mass opposition to the racist politics of the British far-right.
Join us in George Square from 11am.
The Radical Independence Campaign urges independence supporters across Scotland to rally in Glasgow on Saturday 7th September to challenge Tommy Robinson and his far-right mob. 🧵
We will not be silent. We will not cower.
Trade unions have a long history of defending our communities against fascists and racists. That work continues.
📅Saturday 7th September
⏲️12pm
📍George Square, Glasgow.
We also encourage all those who feel safe and able to do so to support the anti-fascist movement and come to Glasgow on the 7th September to protest against this hatred.
We endorse the position of the @SGPTradeUnion Group here: https://t.co/3JCykQVkfj ✊️
