Spain condemns the death penalty for Palestinians passed by the Israeli parliament. This is an asymmetrical measure, as it would not apply to Israelis who committed the same crimes.
This is not justice. It is a further step towards apartheid.
The world cannot remain silent.
The silence of EU institutions over the unlawful detention and punitive conditions imposed on EU citizens including MEP @RimaHas speaks volumes to the deep roots of Israelism in European institutional culture.
We have lost all contact with our UNRWA colleagues in Gaza, communications have been cut off.
This morning, for the first time in months, we did not receive their morning messages to say, "good morning" and "we are fine/alive".
We anxiously await to hear from our colleagues.
Greta Thunberg, arriving back in Europe after her abduction by Israel in international waters, explains in 40 seconds why western governments are colluding in genocide:
I want folks to reflect on the logic which the government is following on the flow of information.
1. Indian news channels ran programming for hours last night reporting that the Indian Navy had been deployed and had bombed and destroyed Karachi Port.
2. Indian news channels ran stories that the Indian army had entered Pakistan.
3. Indian news channels ran stories that India has captured Islamabad.
4. Indian channels ran stories about suicide terror strikes in Rajouri
All of this 'reporting' by major new channels was not just fake news but also inflammatory and provocative and clearly intended to ensure the very escalation (from the Pakistani side) that the Indian government has cautioned against from the outset.
Earlier, channels described an Indian Muslim victim of Pakistani shelling in Poonch as a Lashkar-e-Tayyaba terrorist.
Instead of firmly clearing the air with respect to this kind of dangerous reporting, the government issued instructions to Internet Service Providers across India to block access to The Wire — one of the largest Indian news platforms that has been reporting on the emerging situation with responsibility and restraint.
The blocking order is unconstitutional. It is an attack on press freedom and on the right of every Indian to access information. It must be lifted immediately.
It’s easy to say this when it isn’t you or your family that will pay the price of any escalation. It’s people at the border, people in J&K right now that are suffering.
Just stop this madness
First time I quit a studio literally in search of oxygen, surprised to debate on what "the IDF says" or what "The American Jewish Committee thinks" IN IRELAND!
My friends: Israel has killed 20,000 children in 16months. NO EU gvt has cut ties with Israel yet, including Ireland. This is what we must discuss.
If voices of Umar & others for democracy were weak or insignificant, then they wouldn't have been in jail for more than 1500 days, without bail Or trial!
Our voices matter. That's why state tries to silence us!
Keep raising your voices for justice!

In 1500 days, one can complete graduation, get experiences in jobs to move on, rusty teenagers turn into adults, scientific experiments might conclude.
1500 days is a long time. That's how long Umar & others are in jail, without trial, without bail.
