@Weekly_Worker @Tom_Gann An SWP member in our local YP sent an urgent message that others 'MUST vote YES' to approve the constitution, presenting the dual membership clause as now allowing them into the party. Given it's them, that's presumably from the top so I'm curious if that was also sent elsewhere

“The Foundations of Zionism” by Sabri Jiryis, translated by Fidaa Jiryis and published by @Ebb_Magazine has finally made it to our hands in Palestine. We had to take a picture with it outside Damascus Gate. Looking forward to reading it!

I interviewed esteemed Palestinian scholar Sabri Jiryis, still active at 87 yrs old, about his life, Zionism, the genocide in Gaza, & his newly released book we worked on together 'The Foundations of Zionism' published by @Ebb_Magazine & @LiberatedTexts: https://t.co/AArxLKSBke

To say this is necessary reading for everyone on the British left is an understatement. Reading it, I was genuinely shocked at the extent people at all levels of the party, from CC to rank and file, took every opportunity to harass the two victims. An abject failure of a party

[Ebb Books @EbbBooks]

Based on documents and interviews with 50+ past members, including the two survivors, @Livesrunning analyses the failures that made the SWP's Comrade Delta scandal possible, and how cynical accusations of abandoning Marxism were used to silence critics

Sabri Jiryis' The Foundations of Zionism chronicles Zionism’s early origins up to the establishment of the British mandate over Palestine in 1923, refuting the movement’s foundational myths.

I will stay here in Gaza City for no reason other than that I know very well that this time, leaving it would be without return. I will stay here in Gaza not out of love for death, although I have sought it, yet it has repeatedly gone astray from my path. I will stay here in Gaza because I want my words to do what the camera could not: I will document the eyes of people as they rush to find their place, and I will write about the last tree I took shelter under, about the last building, and about the last family who lived in that building, and about my torn tent when winter falls upon it.

Now, in these moments, the madness of this occupation has erupted, demolishing entire towers and residential blocks. People lie exhausted in the streets, not knowing where to go in the darkness of this night.

I will stay here in Gaza to turn memories into a testimony that does not die. After my death, these words will stand as witnesses to what my heart has endured over the past two years.

@askforcawmbyok Happy birthday, Div!

[Omar Hamad | عُـمَـرْ 𓂆 @OmarHamadD]

As my friends Ibrahim, Hossam, and I were walking among the rubble of the houses, we came across a library. We entered and found many books—it was like discovering a precious treasure.

In this thread, I’d like to write a brief paragraph about each book we found.

The first book is The World of Ornament:

The book covers a wide range of ornamental designs inspired by historical elements dating back to ancient times, including jewelry, tiles, stained glass, illuminated manuscripts, textiles, and ceramics. These designs encompass styles from various cultures and civilizations, such as: Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Etruscan, Asian, Middle Eastern and European (from the Middle Ages to the 19th century)...+

@SamuraiApology Which is a shame. Defoe’s performance is my fav part of the film as it's the only thing giving it any life or pace. When Nosferatu appears any tension evaporates, there’s no nuance like there is with Kinski where you almost feel sorry. here he's just soo evil and throws people

[lewis @lewisebb_]

@SamuraiApology It's no surprise you didn't like him if you considered him high fantasy! He was a mystic which has a completely different character, and is crucial to the narrative of enlightenment and counter enlightenment throughout the film (that repeatedly verges on anti-vax shit)

[lewis @lewisebb_]

@dajveism At Action Park is my favourite of theirs, but definitely check out their Peel Sessions on The End of Radio

[lewis @lewisebb_]

@SamuraiApology Not necessarily alien to everyone 🧐

@kauaemua We should all meet sometime soon if nothing else
