Dear Sadiq Khan
You recently proudly posted pics of yourself in Mecca
Are you going to speak out and condemn the racist, apartheid real estate laws in Mecca?
Or are you an Islamist racist with a sectarian bias against Jews?
At every turn, Trump and Vance have undermined America's key allies and empowered America's key adversaries. They undermined Ukraine and empowered Russia. They undermined Taiwan and empowered China. And now, they're undermining Israel and empowering Iran. The worst administration
To the Heads of State and leaders of the G7 Countries:
The United States of America, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the European Union
In preparation for your upcoming summit meeting in Évian-les-Bains, France on June 15-17, 2026: Mr. President, Prime Ministers, Chancellors, distinguished leaders,
I come before you not as a government official, but as an Israeli peace activist and negotiator, someone who has spent nearly fifty years working with Israelis and Palestinians, speaking with political leaders, peace activists, ordinary citizens, and, at times, even with those whom governments refuse to speak to.
I am here to tell you something that many people no longer believe:
Peace between Israelis and Palestinians is still possible.
But it will not happen on its own.
For decades, the international community has supported a two-state solution in words while allowing realities on the ground to move steadily further away from it. Today we are at the edge of a cliff. The decisions made in the next year may determine whether two states remain possible or whether Israelis and Palestinians are condemned to permanent conflict.
The Gaza war has taught us a painful lesson. There is no military solution. Israel cannot bomb its way to security. Palestinians cannot fight their way to freedom. The alternative to a political solution is not victory for one side. The alternative is endless war.
The G7 countries possess enormous political, economic and diplomatic leverage. It is time to use it.
I also want to speak plainly about the role of the United States and of President Trump. The reality is that no international leader today possesses more influence over Israeli decision-making than President Trump. He has demonstrated repeatedly that when he chooses to make an issue a priority, Israeli leaders listen. He also has significant influence with key Arab partners whose participation will be essential to any lasting peace.
If that influence is used not only to stop wars but to build peace, it could become one of the most important diplomatic achievements of our time. The G7 should work in partnership with the United States, helping to create a unified international framework that combines American leadership, European commitment, regional participation, and international guarantees. Only such a coalition has the weight necessary to move the parties beyond the failures of the past.
I ask you to support five concrete steps.
First, make it clear that the goal of international policy is the creation of a sovereign Palestinian state living in peace and security beside Israel.
Not as a distant aspiration. Not as a slogan. As a real political objective with a timetable.
Second, support the rebuilding of Gaza under a legitimate Palestinian governing authority that rejects armed militias and is capable of delivering security, services, accountability and hope. The people of Gaza deserve a future beyond war. At the same time, Gaza cannot be rebuilt while armed organizations continue to operate outside the authority of the state. There must be one legitimate governing authority, one security structure, and one monopoly on the use of force. Disarmament must be part of the political process, implemented in a way that provides confidence to both sides and is linked to the broader framework of peace, reconstruction, security, and statehood.
Third, insist on security arrangements that guarantee that Gaza and the West Bank will never again be used as launching grounds for attacks against Israel.
Israelis must know that peace means security. Palestinians must know that security will not be used as a permanent justification for occupation. Both peoples deserve safety, dignity, and freedom.
Fourth, support democratic renewal.
Neither Israelis nor Palestinians should be denied the opportunity to elect leaders capable of making peace.
Too often, leaders have become prisoners of political survival rather than servants of their people’s future. If current leaders cannot deliver a political future, then new leaders must emerge through democratic means.
Fifth, create an international implementation mechanism with real authority, resources, and accountability.
We do not need another declaration. We need a process that survives changes of governments and political crises. The conflict has become internationalized. The solution must be internationally guaranteed.
Ladies and gentlemen,
The people I meet on both sides are exhausted. Israeli parents want their children to live without fear. Palestinian parents want their children to live with dignity and freedom.
These are not contradictory aspirations. They are complementary aspirations.
The future I believe in is simple:
Israel as the democratic nation-state of the Jewish people with full equality for all of its citizens.
Palestine as the democratic nation-state of the Palestinian people with full equality for all of its citizens.
Mutual recognition of the historic connection of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel and of the Palestinian people to the Land of Palestine.
Open borders for cooperation. Strong borders for security. Regional integration. Economic partnership. And an end to the belief that one people can achieve its national aspirations by denying the aspirations of the other.
History will not judge us by the speeches we give. History will judge us by whether we had the courage to act when action was still possible.
The choice before us is clear:
Two states, mutual recognition, security, and peace.
Or perpetual war.
I ask you to help make the right choice.
The window for a two-state solution is not closed, but it is closing. Future generations of Israelis and Palestinians will ask whether we acted while there was still time. Let our answer be yes.
Thank you,
Dr. Gershon Baskin
Nigel Farage has turned into Enoch Powell of the social media age.
He’s trying to excuse racist disorder and violence against police officers. He’s pushing the politics of grievance and division that goes totally against our fundamental British values of tolerance and decency.
I NEED people on the left (and the right, but they're a lost cause) to acknowledge anti-Semitism is a real problem in your community. I need you to push back when it's on your side. She's an American singer at a basketball game.
Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.
Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.
A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.
We do not need to spend more money on bombs and bullets.
We need to spend more on housing, schools and our NHS instead.
A roof over your head. Enough food to feed your children. A public health service you can rely on in your time of need.
That is what real security means.
Yesterday we had JD Vance wading in on British politics.
Now we have Pete Hegseth using D-Day commemorations to score a political point.
A complete insult to the memory of our D-Day heroes.
One Sikh man committed a murder.
535,000 British Sikhs did not.
They served in our armies.
They built our cities. They fed our homeless.
They sheltered our children after Manchester.
Know your allies. Don’t let hatred win.

There's not a single person in Britain who doesn't agree that the death of Henry Nowak was a tragedy, and the way the police handled it was absolutely disgraceful.
There's only one political party, however, who want to take that family's pain and politicise it for their own benefit.
No because this is hilarious. Are we now holding people who were in the same march as fanatics responsible for these fanatics? Because I have a lot to say about pro-Palestinian marches. Just say the word!
Hi. I'm a non-British citizen on a student visa in the United Kingdom. Here's a sample of me criticizing the Israeli government and not facing deportation or interdiction of entry. Maybe the problem here is something else and you're not the martyr you're pretending to be.
Nigel Farage hasn't voted in Parliament for the last 11 weeks and has now missed 77 votes in a row, according to official records. The last time he turned up was to vote against adraft regulations for the Employment Rights Act, and that says it all.
Why would Zohran Mamdani march in the Israel Day Parade alongside far-right Israeli ministers and Knesset members who openly support settler terrorism, settlement expansion, and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians?
Hey terrorist supporter — they were civilians and children. Two girls, ages 15 and 17. If you think it's acceptable to kill children simply because they were Israeli, you are sick.
