These trophy pictures of captured Gazans which young IDF soldiers share for their friends to admire on tiktok remind me of the B&W shots taken by Belgian colonial officers in the Congo after cutting the hands off young plantation workers for failing to make their rubber quota
@DalrympleWill - Your speech today was EVERYTHING!
Thank you.
Just Thank You.
The ignorance bred by a British education system which hides this country's role in creating so many of the messes of today is so obvious.
Here's to an awakening⚡️
#Nakba77 G.A.Z.A.
G.E.N.O.C.I.D.E.
Israel-US-UK-EU are massacring many dozens Palestinians daily and their blockade of Gaza has left 290,000 children under the age of five on the brink of death by starvation, and Western media is telling you to move on and forget Gaza and focus on the distractions at home instead.
Some of his last acts on Earth were to call for peace, disarmament, a ceasefire in Gaza, the release of prisoners, and to par J.D. Vance.
Top behaviour.
To all friends

I’m a British Jew. I’m 63
All my life I could not understand how millions of ordinary people could take part in the Holocaust
NOW I see Israel’s GENOCIDE & the support from the West including people who consider themselves thoughtful, liberal, & upholders of human rights, NOW I understand
These are doctors who witnessed their fellow medical staff being executed, arbitrarily detained, and tortured to death in Israeli prisons. These are doctors who were blackmailed by the Israeli occupation, with their families targeted in an attempt to force them to abandon their work in hospitals in northern Gaza. Yet, nothing could make them abandon their duty. The result? The Israeli occupation is now targeting the very hospital, with doctors and patients inside.
TurnerPrize 2024 winner Jasleen Kaur used her acceptance speech to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, demand an end to institutional complicity in Israels genocide & call for an arms embargo
A special mention to the pathetic statement from the presenter at the end
I'm looking forward to presenting a double launch! Steve Ely wrote Orasaigh and co-edited the Apocalyptic Landscape anthology and we'll be celebrating both with @KatyEvansBush @patiani@errormessage and Martyn Crucefix on Fri 1st Nov in London - details: https://t.co/xzYGtEhfQH

Profits raised from ticket sales will go to @ifrc

Very hard to do work and life when Lebanon is being attacked and invaded. Yes, Lebanon. Not Hizbullah. Thinking of our authors, colleagues and friends, and country.
THREAD: Today we open submissions for #JhalakPrize2025 with an expanded portfolio of THREE awards including the inaugural #JhalakPoetryPrize along with our extraordinary panels of judges.
These shall be our ninth awards and we could never have foreseen this journey!
Racial check-points in 2024 Britain. Literal: "if you're white you're alright. If you're brown get outta town". The speed of racist innovation is something to behold. It's going to take a lot of "unconscious bias" training undo all this.
