The death rate in Gaza is at a historic high, with thousands of children killed in just a few weeks.
Demanding an end to this inexcusable violence is a question of basic humanity. Silence is complicity. You cannot be silent in an unfolding genocide.

This is terrible.
I too was targeted by a group of immigrants on Wednesday this week, armed with knives.
They turned my almost legally blind right eye into one with 97% perfect vision.
I’m still recovering.
Hundreds of thousands of people marched through central London in a huge pro-Palestinian demonstration on Saturday, one of the largest protests in Britain in recent years. Before it began, far-right demonstrators scuffled with officers. https://t.co/gaTcjX6Ya2
In a just world, anyone who supports this massacre would be driven out of public life and treated as disgraced amoral pariahs.
In the world we live in, those who oppose this massacre are being demonised as hateful dangerous extremists
Nothing from the Covid inquiry is surprising. Shocking, maybe. But everybody knew it was a joke shitshow government at the time, because it was the Boris Johnson government, and only joke shitshow politicians would serve in it. I wrote this in April 2020, when Covid first hit.
Brilliant analysis from the great @EdwardGLuce:
"There is no contradiction between reviling terrorism and tackling its roots. Both the following statements are true: Hamas has plumbed new depths of bestial cruelty; Benjamin Netanyahu’s Israel has starved non-violent Palestinian alternatives...
"Last Saturday’s killing was horrific, yet should come as no surprise. Gaza, as others have remarked, is the world’s largest open-air prison. Netanyahu has deprived Palestinians of hope for the future and peaceful outlets to express their frustrations. John F Kennedy, Biden’s original hero, said: “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.” Israelis and Palestinians are on the brink of writing an even darker chapter in their history. Biden has the means to hijack that script. It is the most pro-Israeli thing he could do.

the whistleblower has tapes, you shouted. awesome, we said, show us your evidence.
then you told us your whistleblower was in hiding. fine, we said, show us your evidence.
then you told us you couldn't find your whistleblower.
super, we said, show us your evidence. then you told us the whistleblower was dead.
whatever, we said. just show us the fucking evidence.
then it turned our your whistleblower was a Chinese spy and a fugitive from justice. great whistleblower you got there, we said, now how about that evidence.
then you announced an impeachment hearing. why, we asked, did you finally find some evidence?
Professor Turley's going to tell you all about it, you replied. cool, we said, Professor Turley, do you HAVE any evidence?
no, said Professor Turley. well then, we asked, did you SEE any evidence?
no, said Professor Turley. well then, we asked, did you HEAR ABOUT any evidence?
no, said Professor Turley. and so your big stupid impeachment hearing blew the fuck up right in your dumb faces, and you all looked like silly dipshits.
even Fox News made fun of you.
now it's time for you to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up until you can show. us. some. evidence
