I can’t imagine Trevor Phillips saying this to any other Jewish politician in the UK, certainly not one from the Labour or Tory parties, and certainly not on this tone.
If you had any doubts they’re trying to ‘Corbynize’ Polanski:
🚨 NOW: There is a massive escalation in the area of the Christian village of Taybeh in the West Bank, Israeli settlers set up a new outpost meters away from Palestinian houses and have essentially put the compound under siege.
Here's what happened in the past 24 hours:
يُعتبر هذا المشهد واحد من أكثر الجرائم رُعباً في كل تاريخ الحروب
لحظة قيام جندي إسرائيلي بقنص سيدة مُسنة في غزة وهي تُمسك بيد حفيدها رافعين الراية البيضاء وبعد أن قام جيش الاحتلال بإعطائهم الأمان للمرور
النسيان جريمة.
Guards at Israel’s notorious Sde Teiman torture camp have admitted their colleagues use dogs to rape Palestinian captives there, according to a prominent Israeli analyst.
Shaiel Ben-Ephraim, a geopolitical expert who opposes Israel’s genocide in Gaza, said he spoke to two guards from the facility about the gruesome form of torture “on more than one occasion”.
“Some have said that claims that Israel uses dogs to sexually abuse prisoners are antisemitic blood libels,” Ben-Ephraim wrote on X on Friday. “Unfortunately, there is a good deal of evidence.”
Of the two guards he spoke to, “one had seen this happen and said it was too awful to talk about. The other said that he had heard about it from others and believed it was true. This happened. This is happening still. The evidence is too overwhelming.”
He highlighted several cases reported by human rights groups and media outlets.
They include a man who spoke to the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR). “We were stripped completely. Soldiers brought dogs that climbed on us and urinated on me,” he said. “Then one of the dogs raped me… I suffered a severe psychological breakdown and deep humiliation.”
“They know once they rape someone with a dog or with a stick that these people won’t be able to carry out their jobs or live their lives normally,” Basel Alsourani, international advocacy officer at PCHR, told Novara Media last year. “It’s part of their genocidal intention to destroy [Palestinians].”
Sde Teiman gained global notoriety last year after footage was leaked of soldiers gang-raping a captive there in 2024.
Not only is Labour MP Tom Hayes disabling replies, but he’s also been caught swiping Green Party leaflets from letterboxes. That's theft. Keir Starmers Labour is so sleazy.
🇮🇱"You've messed up haven't you"
We asked the minister responsible for arms exports to Israel about his undeclared membership of Labour Friends of Israel👇
David Lammy: "... because Cyprus is part of NATO"
erm, Cyprus is not a member of NATO. Maybe its just a slip of the tongue? Except he repeats the claim just a minute later
"... Cyprus is a NATO country"
Does the deputy PM not know that Cyprus isn't a member of a NATO?
