Wonderful speech by Francesca Albanese at Dominicuskerk Church in Amsterdam. She said, ‘Gaza has exposed the ugly coalition behind this project: a mix of corporate profiteers, compliant governments, arms manufacturers, public relations advisors, and media outlets that sanitize brutality while participating in the machinery of war.’

Gaza Concentration Camp Netanyahu says the ppl of Gaza will be forced to be re-educated. Under Jared Kushner’s master plan for Gaza, ppl will be forced to live in camps. Netanyahu says only Israel will be allowed to provide security. “That can be done the easy way or it can be done the hard way.”

‘Kettling’ and ‘charging’ Monday’s protest crowd was entirely inappropriate. 🚨 Who ordered the police present to do it, and how high did the decision go? ▪️Kettling is a robust physical police crowd control technique of encirclement. ▪️It was used on Monday initially as containment to stop any marching…. ▪️However, it was then used as corralling for a phalanx of police apparently ordered to violently charge the crowd, shouting and running with horses and pepper spray and shoving running people, so causing the expected panic and fleeing. ▪️This is a particular violent control measure uncalled for on the slowly-dispersing peaceful but noisy crowd on Monday. ▪️Kettling is a risky technique and on other occasions has led to serious injury causing hospitalisation of fleeing crowd members, and even one death in another place. 👉 Here is film of the kettling used by police on the crowd outside the Sydney Town Hall on Monday. 👇
