They’ve dropped more bombs on Gaza in eight months than the entirety of bombs used in WWII. Extermination isn’t even a strong enough word anymore. It’s annihilation.
I remember in my first week of uni, talking about my childhood poverty (meaning food parcels & hiding from the rent man) & somebody said they were once so poor as a kid they had to give up horse riding lessons.
This is very much that.
Diane Abbott can't clumsily say that people who can never pass for white face a different kind of prejudice to people that can, but Keir Starmer can say water and electricity can be denied to 2 million Gazans and David Lammy can say bombing refugee camps can be legally justified.
Lad my mortgage has gone up £400 a month and the gas and electricity up £250 a month up.
You are the ones who have broke us not some lad with a Palestine flag, now fuck off

Hind Rajab.
She was alive in a car after five of her family had been murdered. She phoned for help and an ambulance was sent to the scene.
Her car was surrounded by Israeli tanks. She went missing.
Today her body has been found.
Murdered in cold blood. Aged 6.
What's particularly nauseating is how so many apologists for Israel's onslaught have gone quiet.
Why the silence?
Either show penitence, or publicly stand by your position and continue to defend this horror, so everyone is clear about where you stand.
That little girl suffered to her last breath. The Red Crescent workers who tried to save her were murdered in cold blood. I’ve never seen such unabashed cruelty telegraphed to the entire world.
As a father of two daughters that are about Hind Rajab's age, her story hit me particularly hard.
I cannot begin to imagine the distress she went through in her last moments, highlighting the complete absence of humanity in what Israel inflicts on the Palestinians.
At 6 years old she managed to call an ambulance from a car that had been targeted by the IDF (you can see the car in the video 👇). She was wounded but had miraculously survived, surrounded by the dead bodies of her aunt, uncle and her 3 cousins. She stayed on the phone during three hours, telling health services she was "so scared" (you can hear a recording of the call in the video).
A Red Crescent ambulance was sent to get her. The ambulance was never heard from again.
10 days after Hind Rajab's car was found with 6 decomposing bodies inside, including hers. The ambulance that had been dispatched to fetch her was also found, utterly destroyed (you can see it in the video) with the bodies of 2 medics inside.
Immensely revolting.
Calling out the actions of Israel, whilst it commits indiscriminate bombing in Gaza, does not mean you somehow support the actions of Hamas.
It was wrong for the PM to ask @zarahsultana to tell Hamas and the Houthis to stop their actions.
Absolutely wow, I am speechless at the strength of the argument.
“This is the first genocide in history where people themselves are broadcasting it.”
“The world should be absolutely horrified, there is no safe space in Gaza. The world should be ashamed.”
