"How could I be anti-Semitic? My family lost members in the Holocaust. I mourn what happened to us, but do I not also mourn Palestinians who’ve died? I don’t choose one lot of humans against another. A dead child is a dead child": Miriam Margolyes.

When the Knesset yesterday, passed the law approving the death penalty for Palestinians ONLY, they popped champagne bottles in the chamber as they applauded. You read that correctly.
Not your problem?
It’s complicated?
STILL SILENT?
SILENCE IS COMPLICITY.
Israel has passed the death penalty solely for Palestinians, enforced through military courts with a 96% conviction rate.
Israeli Minister Ben Gvir popped champagne.
The Israeli government is raising a toast to genocidal apartheid. The UK government is arming and funding it.
the fact that over half the comments are telling him to not drink the coke and to boycott and just drink water. have you ever considered that they still don’t have clean drinking water and they’re going through a genocide and also that you are delusional?????!
A UN commission of inquiry has confirmed what was already clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
For nearly two years we’ve witnessed the deliberate slaughter of civilians, starvation of an entire population, and the systematic destruction of hospitals and essential infrastructure. This has been accompanied by open calls to annihilate Palestinians from Israel’s political and military leaders.
This is the most documented genocide in history.
Yet just two weeks ago, the UK government claimed it had not concluded Israel was acting with genocidal intent. It continues to arm Israel's genocide, provide RAF reconnaissance support and roll out the red carpet for Israeli war criminals.
The government’s position was already morally indefensible. It is now politically untenable.
Keir Starmer and his Labour ministers must be held criminally accountable.
“Why do train drivers get to strike for higher pay when nurses and doctors get paid so little”
- someone who complained when nurses and doctors were on strike for better pay
Yeah yeah, the journalists are Hamas. The journalists are Hamas, the hospitals are Hamas, the UN is Hamas, the peace activists are Hamas, the demonstrations are Hamas, telling the truth is Hamas, human empathy is Hamas, objective reality is Hamas. It's all Hamas.
The deliberate and relentless killing of Palestinian journalists is sickening beyond words — and is a desperate attempt to silence the truth about Israel’s ongoing crimes against humanity.
Shame on all those who empowered Israel to murder with impunity.
Rest in peace to Suleiman Obeid. A legendary Palestinian footballer who was killed by Israeli occupational forces while waiting for humanitarian aid to feed his family.
The Pelé of Palestine was a symbol of pride in a place too often denied joy.
A thread.
I’m so fucking sick of this box office obsessed culture that has emerged lately like it feels so gross and capitalistic to judge and talk about art based on its its monetary gain rather than the quality of the art itself
there is no justice for this. a stain on humanity that will never wash out. i hope it haunts every politician who abetted it, every media person who laundered it, every university president who destroyed students for protesting it. even then, there is no justice. free palestine
Palestinian statehood is not a bargaining chip.
It is not a threat.
It is an inalienable right of the Palestinian people.
Our demands on this shameful government remain the same: end all arms sales to Israel, impose widespread sanctions, and stop the genocide, now.
No, Israel does not have the right to starve 2 million people.

There are no excuses. Stop it now.
