Boy George’s stance has been moral and consistent: this was his post after the October 7, 2023 massacres:

I’m the most disappointed & disgusted with ex sports women in positions of authority in sporting or women organisations throwing women & girls rights under the virtue signalling bus to protect their own positions; pulling the drawbridge up behind them! Shame on every one of you

[Max Klinger @MaxE2review]

The historical illiteracy, and selective outrage on display - though in no way surprising - is nauseating.

He asks for 'one' comparable example. Ok. Turkey. Well over a million Armenians and other Christian minorities were slaughtered in an effort to forge a ‘Turkified’ state based around a Muslim-Turkish identity. Later, over a million Greek Christians were then forced out of the country, never to return in the majority of cases.

Pakistan. Millions of Hindus and non-Muslims were murdered or forced out of their land, by Muslim mobs, following - and to facilitate - the creation of a new Muslim state. Very few returned. This was orders of magnitude more (something like 100x) than were killed by the state of Israel during the civil war and later imperialist war waged by Arabs, which Owen depicts as random violence only by Jews. And it occurred over a very short time period (months).

And, what about the ethnic cleansing of Jews from virtually the entire Middle East, by Muslim states, immediately after the holocaust, in response to the formation of the State of Israel (which, you'll note, Owen totally ignores).

And notice how he leaves out the context of what he describes as the 'murderous expulsion', namely - the Jews accepted a tiny sliver of land in an area that had been brutally conquered by Islam, and where they had lived since before Islam even existed (and conquered the region). The Palestinian Arabs rejected it, immediately attacked the Jews and, with the backing of numerous massive Arab states, vowed to annihilate Israel. They failed, and many Arabs fled or were forced out during that war, in large part because they were a fifth column that posed an existential threat to the new state of Israel and its Jewish inhabitants. Meanwhile, a larger number of Jews were ethnically cleansed, including repeated massive pogroms, from across the entire Middle East. Almost none have ever returned. Owen boils this down to: 'Israel was founded on murderous mass expulsion'.

These leftists are essentially parroting low-IQ propaganda in the service of jew-hating, imperialist Islam. While lecturing everyone else for being racists. Beyond parody.

If a gay white man like Tom Daley wore blackface he’d lose his sponsorship. So why is Daley’s drag womanface being celebrated by the media? Drag insults women no less than blackface does Blacks.

So many female athletes were called sore losers for pointing out the East German cheating in the 70s & 80s! Now people say why was it allowed to happen? Because everyone in authority especially the IOC &the British Olympic Association of the time did absolutely nothing to stop it

[Peter Baum @baum_p]

FACTS
Not one Protestant plays for the Republic of Ireland soccer team …..apartheid and racism still rules in the ROI
4 Arabs and 3 Christians play for Israel and Ireland calls Israel an apartheid state 😂😂😂
And the Irish wonder they are globally mocked for their intellectual imbecility and exposed for their Jew hatred
BROIGAS

Stop the March @metpoliceuk

The following is a list of British citizens murdered on 7/10.

• Bernard Cowan, 57
• Roi Popplewell, 54
• Nathanel Young, 20
• Danny Darlington, 34
• Jake Marlowe, 26
• Aner Shapira, 22
• Dvorah “Debbie” Abraham, 40
• Yonatan Rapoport, 41

Glorifying a massacre and rape and torture and kidnapping are deeply problematic but what’s also problematic is your decision to let hundreds of people rejoice in the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.

Where is your decency? Stop being such chicken shit appeasers.

Everyday tasks that we take for granted can be a real struggle for Trans women due to their massive hands.

For example, many Trans women find it difficult to converse with legacy women on social media without slipping and accidentally typing out death threats to them.

[Boy George @BoyGeorge]

We will be playing my version of 'We Will Dance Again' at 4.20 am tomorrow morning on Boy George FM. It will be 6.20 in Israel. We will play it again later but I want to honour the victims of the Nova Festival. If you want to hear it maybe get an early night. Tomorrow is a special and very sad day. Never forget!

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

Imagine if, on the anniversary of Hiroshima, Americans marched past Japanese communities waving American flags and denouncing Japan. Or if Britain chose the anniversary of Dresden to stage victory marches through London. We don’t. Those dates are treated with sensitivity because whatever your view of the wider war, the anniversary of mass civilian death is not the day to celebrate.
Yet on 7 October — the anniversary of the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust — demonstrators have deliberately chosen to march through London for the Palestinian cause.
They do it, simply, because they are utterly repugnant human beings

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

In 1947, when the partition plan was approved, Jews constituted approx one-third of the population of Mandatory Palestine west of the Jordan River.
The UN partition plan proposed allocating approx 56% of the territory to a Jewish state and 43% to an Arab state (with Jerusalem and its surroundings under int’l admin).
But, 60% of the Jewish allocation was Negev desert, compared with around quarter of the Arab allocation being desert or semi-desert.
Remove the desert and the breakdown in 1947 is: 33% of the population were Jewish and they were allocated 42% of the land.
In addition, the Jews were always clear that Arabs would be welcome to live in Israel if they accepted its existence (which is why 20% of the population today is Arab). Not so the Palestinians.
Not quite the 90% Owen is citing.

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

Thank you Antonio.
The ‘pre Goldsmith last name’ was Goldschmidt, and had been for hundreds of years - at a minimum since Mosche Goldschmidt settled in Frankfurt’s Judengasse in 1521.
The family arrived there from Nuremberg after the entire Jewish community was expelled, their property stolen, synagogues and cemeteries destroyed in 1498. This was in part so that Emperor Maximilian, who was short of money, could get his hands on around 8,000 gulden.
When things became difficult for Jews in Frankfurt the family moved again, to France. But a few years later the Dreyfus Affair (where a young Jewish army officer, was falsely convicted of treason and sent to the brutal French penal colony of Devil’s Island) caused a surge in French antisemitism and the family moved again to London.
There they were determined to integrate successfully and part of that involved anglicising their name to Goldsmith.

[Climate Warrior🐬 #ClimateJustice🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @ClimateWarrior7]

Comrades, I have decided that until Palestine is free, I will eat only the starvation diet that Israel allows Palestinians to eat.

I am beginning my fast today on Tuesday 6 October.

Having just woken up, at 10.30 a.m, I am eating nothing for breakfast other some hummus and bread, with fried eggs and sliced tomatoes.

After this I will retire to bed again since I expect I will be very weak.

[Benonwine @benonwine]

Fair play to Anne Hegerty from the Chase game show. Someone had to say it.

The Greens have just voted that Zionism is racism, then told Jewish members not to take it personally. She answered Carla Denyer in one line:

“Tell you what. Get your Muslim members to promise they will never attend a mosque that criticises homosexuality. Then we’ll talk.”

That’s it. That’s the double standard, said out loud. One lot get told their faith is a problem. The other lot don’t even get asked. Glad a public figure still has the nerve to speak out for what is right.

Well Done Ann 👏👏👏

[Rob Rinder @RobbieRinder]

Zionism is both historic and spiritual; the ancient connection of the Jewish people to the land of Israel and their right to self-determination in their historic homeland.

I am British by birth, belonging and love; Jewish by inheritance, memory and faith. Britain is my country. Israel is not a competing loyalty, it is the homeland of the Jewish people to which I am bound by ancestry, memory and identity.

For millions of Jews, that is the heart of Zionism. Not supremacy, dispossession or the killing of Palestinians and not a colonial claim to a foreign land but the self-determination of a people with an ancient and continuous connection to it. In practice, it must mean two peoples entitled to self-determination both living in security and freedom with neither people’s future purchased with the lives, rights or humanity of the other.

That is why declaring “Zionism is racism” is not merely wrong, it tells most Jews that their understanding of their own history, identity and collective freedom is itself morally suspect. The Greens should ask themselves whom they are trying to please by adopting a slogan that turns Jewish self-determination into a moral stain. If your politics of inclusion requires millions of Jews to renounce a central part of their history and identity before they qualify for your solidarity, it isn’t inclusion. You are telling Jews: you may belong here but only if you disown Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people. That is not anti-racism. It is imposing a political test on Jews that no genuinely progressive movement would dream of imposing on any other minority.

[Sama Hoole @SamaHoole]

In 1967 Britain had more electric vehicles on its roads than every other country on earth put together, and they were all delivering milk.

There were tens of thousands of them. The milk float: open sided, battery under the floor, top speed of about 15 miles an hour, and a whine you could pick out in your sleep. It was charged overnight at the depot and was back there by lunchtime.

It carried glass bottles. Each one was collected from your step the next morning, washed and refilled. A bottle went round like that 20 or 30 times before it broke. The foil cap went for scrap. There was no other packaging.

The milk had come from farms within a few miles, through a local dairy, and was on the step before 7.

So here is what the country had. A zero-emission delivery fleet. Reusable containers with a return rate any modern scheme would kill for. No plastic. A supply chain you could cycle the length of. A man who noticed if an old lady's bottles were piling up, and knocked.

It was dismantled in about 15 years, because a supermarket could sell milk a few pence cheaper in a plastic jug as a way of getting you through the door.

Every piece of that system is now the subject of a government target for 2040.

It was running in 1967, silently, in the dark, and nobody thought it was worth a mention.

[Afshine Emrani MD FACC @afshineemrani]

“Nowhere has this moral confusion become more obvious than in a place called Gaza. A little strip of land that was not part of the original Israel, but which they won in a war launched against them, but then gave back as a peace gesture. Did they tell you that part on TikTok, kids?

And the people who run Gaza, Hamas, who you celebrate as a liberation movement but are really a terrorist mafia gang, just like the one that terrorizes Haiti, only ever used it to stage attacks on Israel.

I think Macklemore spoke for all clueless celebrities when he said: ‘I know enough to know this is a genocide.’ Actually, you don’t know sh*t. It’s not a genocide. It’s a counterattack in a war. A war that’s been waged on Israel since 1948 based on the ridiculous premise that Jews don’t belong in the one place on earth they are indigenous and indisputably their ancestral homeland. Hey geniuses, they’re the Indians in this scenario.

Any famine that happened in Gaza is because Hamas stole the food, just like the Haitian gangs do. Israel ran 94,000 trucks carrying over 1.8 million tons of aid into Gaza, and enabled over 36,000 patients to leave Gaza for treatment abroad.

‘Gaza equals genocide’ is a lie, and the fact that so many prominent Democrats go along with it is, to me, the party’s worst moment since they undid Reconstruction after the Civil War. Democrats are policing their candidates really hard on this issue. ‘Say it! Say it’s a genocide! Say it!’

You can’t just change the definition of genocide to mean counterattack in a war where people, including civilians, die. That’s every war. There have been about 73,000 deaths in Gaza, about 3% of the population. Tragic. Not genocide. Not close. There were 3 million Jews in Poland before WW2. After? 45,000. That’s genocide.

This explosion of antisemitism around the world that we see. This is where it’s coming from. Because if you really think someone is committing genocide, of course you have full permission to hate them, and history shows, for whatever reason, when it comes to hating the Jews, people don’t need a lot of permission.”

The Nation of Israel Lives

[Rich Toronto @rich_toronto]

I’m often asked what I call the actions of Israel in Gaza.

I call it urban warfare, an extremely difficult type of war which tragically has a high casualty rate.

I call it the result of having been the target of 30,000-40,000 rockets aimed at civilians for decades.

I call it the natural outcome when you have people living beside you who constantly try to kill the citizens of your country.

I call it the culmination of multiple attempts at ceasefires and peace negotiations and offers of land for recognition and peace that never go anywhere.

I call it the only option after a savage massacre that saw 1200 brutal murders, countless rapes, 250 kidnappings, the strangulation of a 9-month and 4-year old, months of torture of hostages and their families, and a promise to do it over and over and over again.

I call it a sane rational decision after rats sneak into your country, hunt the people of your nation, and then scurry like rats underground to hide from your response, putting their own citizens between themselves and your rockets and bombs.

I call it the government of Gaza, Hamas, intentionally trying to sacrifice the lives of the people of Gaza in order to turn public opinion against Israel.

I call it tragic and horrific and devastating for the innocent people who have gotten caught up in this situation that their government has created, on purpose.

I call it the absolute only choice Israel has to try and stop the bloodshed and bring peace to the region.

I call it a miracle that Israel, despite how vicious the attack of Oct 7 was, has shown incredible patience and restraint in doing everything it can to minimize deaths and injuries to innocent victims, as few countries would have done the same.

And I call it disgraceful and disgusting that despite all of that, much of the world chooses to believe the lies and propaganda that Hamas and the Free Palestine movement are shoving down their throats, and have turned on Israel, one of the greatest countries in the world, by far.

That’s what I call it.
