Sally Rooney is a hero

Labour has turned Britain into an authoritarian nightmare

All to please genocidal Zionists

🚨 ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt reveals in Israel that he's been working with all the top AI Frontier Labs to push them to suppress "anti-Semitism."

"We've been working with the Frontier Labs—OpenAI, Anthropic, Alphabet, the company that runs Gemini, Google, Meta, who runs Muse, and others, X, who run Grok—testing their models and using the results to push them to do better."

"We've had excellent collaboration with Silicon Valley."

"We've run the tests and seen where anti-Semitism shows up and helped them develop strategies to tackle it right in the source code."

“My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence.

And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide.

A year ago when October 7th happened, like all Israelis I was in shock. It was a war crime and a crime against humanity. 1200 people - more than 800 of them civilians - were killed in one day. Children and the elderly were among those taken hostage. Communities were destroyed. It was outrageous, traumatizing, personal. Like most Israelis, I know people who were killed, who lost loved ones or whose loved ones were taken hostage.

But immediately afterwards came Israel’s response and within weeks thousands of civilians were killed in Gaza. It took me some time to digest what was unfolding before my eyes. It was agonizing to confront that reality. I was reluctant to call it a genocide.

But if you read Raphael Lemkin – the Jewish-Polish legal scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ and was the major driving force behind the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention – what is happening in Gaza now is exactly what he had in mind when he spoke about genocide.

It does not need to look like the Holocaust to be a genocide. Each genocide looks different and not all involve killing of millions or the entire group. The United Nations Genocide Convention explicitly asserts that genocide is the act of deliberately destroying a group in whole or in part. Those are the words.

But there does need to be a clear intent.

And indeed, there are clear indications of intent to destroy Gaza: Israel’s leaders - including the prime minister and the minister of defence - and many high-ranking military officers, media personalities, rabbis, as well as ordinary soldiers were very open about what they wanted to achieve. There were countless documented incitements to turn the whole of Gaza into rubble and claims that there are no innocent people living there.

A radical atmosphere of dehumanization of the Palestinians prevails in Israeli society to an extent that I can’t remember in my 58 years of living here.

Now that vision has been enacted. Tens of thousands of innocent children, women and men have been killed. Over a hundred thousand were wounded. There is a near total destruction of infrastructure, intentional starvation and blocking of humanitarian aid. There are mass graves and reliable testimony of summary executions. Children that were shot by snipers. All the universities and almost all hospitals are gone. Almost all the population is displaced. There have been numerous bombings of civilians in so-called ‘safe zones’. Gaza does not exist anymore. It is completely destroyed. Thus, the outcome fits perfectly with the stated intentions of Israel’s leadership.

Lemkin - that scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ - described two phases of a genocide. The first is the destruction of the annihilated group and the second is what he called ‘imposition of the national pattern’ of the perpetrator. We are now witnessing the second phase as Israel prepares ethnically cleansed areas for Israeli settlements.

And therefore, I have come to the conclusion that this is exactly what a genocide looks like. We don’t teach about genocides in order to realize it retrospectively. We teach about it in order to prevent it and to stop it.

But like in every other case of genocide in history right now we have mass denial. Both here in Israel and around the world.

But reality cannot be denied.

So yes, it is a genocide.

And once you come to this conclusion you cannot remain silent.”

This is exactly the way journalists should interview government officials when they spout blatant bullshit and refuse to answer the most basic questions.

The British PM claimed that Russia interfered in the Brexit vote, but his foreign minister can't and won't say how. Listen:

[Christians for International Law @Christ_IntLaw]

@doctor_rahmeh @LloydsBank @LloydsBank could you comment on who instructed you to do this? @Moneybox could you run a feature to confirm who owns our money - us, the bank or the government?

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

@LloydsBank Yes, I have been arrested 5 times for speaking up for Palestine. Charged. Awaiting trial in March 2027.

But:

· I have never been convicted of a crime
· I have no banking debts
· My credit score is rated excellent

There is no credible justification for @LloydsBank debanking me.

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

@LloydsBank refused to give me a reason for closing my accounts. The advisor could only submit a 'complaint' to request one.

It can take 8 weeks.

Meanwhile, I cannot pay my bills or access my money. I must wait for a cheque and find another bank.

This is political persecution.

[Hamza Yusuf @Hamza_a96]

🚨NEW: After a months-long investigation, we can reveal that a British national who posed in front of a burning school in Gaza fought for Israel and may have participated in war crimes.

Put this in the quote tweet of every hypocrite.

[Karlos @karlos_321]

@SaulStaniforth @LukePollard So I assume that due to the u.s attacking hundreds of civilian targets in Iran in their illegal war, the British government will also be imposing sanctions on the u.s?

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

The hypocrisy of the UK govt laid bare.

Defence minister @LukePollard (talking about the Houthis & Iran): "You are responsible if you fire a missile at a civilian target.. countries should not have their civilian infrastructure targeted by extremists or by another state"

We TRIPLED our vote share.

Second best byelection result in Green Party history.

On a date Labour chose to deliberately clash same week as our conference.

All with a brand new PM in previously a "safe" seat.

Best response to absolute nonsense today?

As a British Jew, I'm deeply concerned about the cynical blurring of Zionism & Judaism.

Whatever our political differences, Jewish people must never face prejudice or discrimination.

So after the Labour Government apologised over Gaza: why are they still arming Israel?

[Matt Kennard @kennardmatt]

The Wahhabi tyrants in Riyadh imposed a man-made famine on Yemen from 2015, causing the world's worst humanitarian crisis

85,000 children died due to malnutrition in first 3 years

By 2021, 2.3 million children had been pushed to brink of starvation

Genocidal policy - and one of greatest crimes of 21st century

The Saudi dictators were, of course, backed all the way by their imperial patrons in Washington and London

[Council Estate Media @cem_uk_]

Andy Burnham is so confident the Fairford incident was an Iranian terror plot that he has sanctioned Iran.

Police are so confident it was not an Iranian terror plot that they let all seven suspects out on bail.

This is not adding up, is it?

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

My @LloydsBank accounts have been closed down after 15 years without a single issue. No warning. No notice.

Since advocating for Palestine, I have:

- Lost my job
- Had my medical licence suspended
- Been arrested 5 times and charged

And now debanked.

Thank God for everything.
