One of the roles of local media in a free country is the right to hold publicly funded politicians to account - unless you are in Nottinghamshire with a Reform Council it would appear…. https://t.co/TiCUtd4uzh

Israel Does Not want the World to see aerial footage of Gaza, but Al Araby TV journalist Dalal Mawad got it

The world must see this destruction and the tent cities

“We were being trained to be soldiers from kindergarten. Literally from kindergarten...”

“One of the main successes of Israeli propaganda is to convince the world that the situation is complicated. But it's far from being complicated..”

Powerful words from historian @DalrympleWill on Gaza, exposing how Britain’s colonial legacy played a key role in creating this injustice. The suffering in Gaza didn’t start yesterday, it was engineered long ago. #Gaza #Palestin🇵🇸

@MikeTappTweets Dover deserves so much better 😔

Greek doctor Christos Georgalas on his stint in Gaza:

"I can’t say I went to war. War is a very different thing. There was no war in Treblinka, there was no war in Auschwitz. War has two armies. Here you have a population that is mainly civilians and women and children, who have no way of escaping. And bombs are systematically raining down from the sky. They hit hospitals, they hit journalists."

@BorisJohnson Oh, do be quiet, you irrelevant, bloviated cockwomble

[Philip Jones @PhilRJ65]

@AndyGJBurge @Keir_Starmer Probably not, but still a massive fail of leadership

[Nick Lowles @lowles_nick]

The @nytimes says Israel is deliberately flattening Rafah. They are also starving people. This is the beginning of a plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza…..

When we say Never Again, we should mean Never Again!

In years to come we must all look in the mirror and ask if we did enough

Avi Shlaim is probably Israel's foremost living historian. He lives in the UK

The BBC has not invited him on once as a pundit since Oct 7.

The Israeli army attacked a convoy of Red Crescent ambulances.

They handcuffed the paramedics.

They executed them by shooting them in the head and chest.

Then they threw their bodies into a mass grave.

What. Does. It. Take.
