During our #ChanukahForCeasefire week of action, thousands of Jews & allies across the country lit candles and called for a lasting ceasefire.
We rallied on bridges & highways — and we also gathered in community to declare: every life is sacred.
Here’s what that looks like.🧵
This isn’t the result of a war.
It’s the outcome of a barbaric, punitive, medieval style raid against the people of Gaza which has been ongoing now for a year. Supported by our government.
Silence is complicity.
I'm English
I was arrested on English soil, by English police under an archaic English law & treated as a terrorist for my reporting.
To this day, not a single British outlet in the mainstream press have said a word.
Israeli media covered it. Chinese, Italian, Arabic, Persian media did, and then some.
@HaimBresh@swilkinsonbc@AsaWinstanley and @CraigMurrayOrg experienced similar mistreatment. Again, no mention in the press.
Other journalists are supposed to be colleagues who care about free speech and civil liberties— never mind when the blowback could one day affect them too.
I still remember their silence when Assange was languishing in prison. They neither defended him nor freedom of speech.
They always seem to have time to criticize human rights abuses abroad, but then turn a blind eye when it happens here.
We are witnessing an unbelievable affront on free speech using the Terrorism ACT in order to protect Israel's tattered reputation.
Wake up.
Israel dropped multiple 2000 pound bombs on an UNRWA school full of displaced children at Nasairat Refugee Camp
Dozens of children dead and hundreds more injured, every politician who backed this should be charged, every business and celebrity boycotted.
