Jordan has a peace treaty with Israel.
It has maintained that treaty through every Gaza war, every settlement expansion, every demolition of Palestinian homes in the West Bank, every eviction in Jerusalem.
It maintains the treaty because without American support, the Jordanian monarchy is not certain it survives.
The Palestinian population of Jordan is estimated at roughly half the country.
Half the country.
Watching their government maintain normal relations with the government killing their families across the river.
King Abdullah occasionally makes statements of concern.
Occasionally summons the Israeli ambassador.
Occasionally gestures toward displeasure.
Then the treaty continues.
The aid continues.
The normalization continues.
The king, educated at Sandhurst and Georgetown, who speaks better English than Arabic, who is received in Washington as a reliable moderate...
He has made his calculation.
His calculation has nothing to do with Gaza.
It has to do with the throne.
You can’t read Sally Rooney, you can’t listen to Fontaines DC on Fridays, you can’t peacefully hold a sign, you can’t wear a badge, you can’t look at children’s art in a hospital, you can’t pronounce a dead paedo’s name correctly, you can only keep quiet & learn to love genocide.
Internationally-acclaimed bestselling author Sally Rooney can no longer sell her books in the UK because she stands against Israel’s genocide in Gaza, supports Palestine Action, and opposes locking up pensioners for protesting against proscription.
This is Andy Burnham’s Britain.
Shame on him for allowing this.
Farage is so preternaturally clapped out and raddled. He looks like Tutankhamen’s scrotum. My 95 year old aunt has better skin, and his eyes have that rheumy grey opaqueness associated with extreme old age.
Hate is very ageing.
Think some people are just motivated by whatever they thing "triggers the libs" on any given day. Supremely empty lives, extremely weird people. Especially Butterworth, who is genuinely a cryptid-tier freak.
@SarahLudford Rowling does not speak for a single LGB person I know or have ever met.
The only people who seem to make this claim are heterosexual gender critical fanatics like you, who exploit LGB people by co-opting them and thinking they have the right to speak on behalf of them.
I'm the only Jewish leader of a political party.
I'm a victim of Antisemitism every day and I've made it clear Jewish people are welcome in my party.
You're a Prime Minister who arms a genocide and locks pensioners up for opposing it.
At Craigend protests promoted by SCA & led by Nazi Patriotic Alternative, masked men shouted “We’re going to smash every black cunt” and “If we need to fight, who gives a fuck”.
They’re not angry about politicising women’s safety. They’re angry that women are denouncing fascists
LABOUR BANNING BOOKS
Sally Rooney says she can no longer sell books in UK due to Palestine Action support.
Irish writer of Normal People says she can no longer receive royalties from British sales and she cancelled UK trip due to fear of arrest.

@CountDeadWomen Absolute shame on you for harming a grieving family.
Most transphobes are men, and you've delighted them.
Creating a category of women it's okay to kill, is not feminism.
When Jess Phillips read out the names of women and girls killed in 2023, she included Brianna Ghey.
I’m thinking about pitching this idea for a skit to SNL where a woman in gym shorts beats Shane Gillis to death with a kettlebell. There’s no punchline.
