No Other Land could have easily been produced by Basel Arda alone. It was his life, after all, and his footage. His family. His land. His story. But we all know that none—except us—would have given it the time of day, or believed it if they did. So the liberal zionist co-agent comes along to "give voice to the voiceless" as liberals like to say. The liberal zionist, who peddled the rape hoax for months, who couldn't say the word genocide, then equates the wholesale slaughter of half a million Palestinians with Hamas' singular military operation to capture Israelis in order get their own hostages back. The liberal hops on the back of Palestinian pain and rides that wave as he makes a name for himself, and money. He is the confident one speaking before an audience, while Basel, dignified and strong, is nervous, because state systems of supremacy produce internal, intangible personal realities, just as they produce material disparities. Basel and his family were generous and welcoming of Yuval, but Yuval has a long way to go before he is worthy of them. There can be no place in the world for zionism anymore, liberal or otherwise.
My heartfelt congratulations to Basel and his family.
No Other Land airs on Channel 4 at 11.15pm, Tuesday 4 March. Please share widely so as many people as possible can witness how Israel steals Palestinian land and destroys homes and lives, shown through the eyes of Basel, a Palestinian filmmaker, and Yuval, an Israeli journalist.

@SabbineSa@Clockwisesss Lambeth has one of the highest rates of homelessness in the country. But it wastes money on ‘rain gardens’ and other pet projects. It should concentrate on bringing back empty properties and housing people. If it can’t do that then it’s a failed Council.
This is a case study on Build to Rent from Lewisham. Perfectly illustrates how it’s gonna work for other areas.
The land was given to developers for free along with a multi-million £ grant by Lewisham Council. Sweet deal right?
Cost of a studio flat? £1,750 (not inc bills).
@Miatsf@LibPeck Lambeth Labour council is now issuing S21 eviction notices to private tenants given exleaseholder homes to rent through Homes for Lambeth (now being dismantled) on these 6 estates still under threat of demolition. They're being unhoused to house the homeless. Is it even legal?
@DHSCgovuk One of the best ways to help the public's health is to ensure there is housing for all, that does not impoverish due to its expense or condition of repair. Lambeth is found wanting on both fronts as it continues to plan estate demolitions and evictions.
Ours are left empty for no other reason than it politically and/or commercially benefits Labour-run Lambeth Council, Savills, an international property developer and speculators, or someone else, or because of sheer incompetence.
It's appalling.
@Shelter That's because social housing providers don't maintain their properties. They then go into major disrepair, and then they just auction them off cheap.
Fight for your neighbourhood and genuinely affordable homes!

Peckham Housing Protest Sat 8th February 3pm in Peckham Sq where the library is.
Organised by @ACAPeckham and supported by @ShapeCoalition1
@Shelter Much of the so-called 'affordable' housing being built is not safe and secure. We need council housing built at scale and that is not delivered for private profit. Unlike what we are witnessing throughout London at the moment.
Thanks @JackFiehn, @JamesCannon66 and @BBCSurrey for inviting SHAC onto the show to discuss problems experienced by tenants and residents.

We comment on the terrible toll on tenants & residents caused by landlord failures to address problems such as repairs, antisocial behaviour & inaccurate service charges.
