every western country is about to release statements condemning iran in their display of solidarity against terrorism while they comfortably have watched the gaza genocide and the bombing of lebanon with silent tongues
the us and britain’s complacency in these crimes will be remembered. all the proposals vetoed because you’re so desperate to uphold your empire. this is what empire is, it’s nothing but destruction of humanity.
We are watching genocide before our eyes: Sunak must immediately halt all arms sales to Israel, impose sanctions & withdraw the UK’s ambassador. Starmer must support this explicitly & emphatically. If not they should both join Netanyahu in the dock at the ICC. For all of us: don’t vote for anyone who does not support these steps, don’t buy Israeli goods or support any company that has links to Israel.

Israel told the world that displaced Palestinians in Rafah would be safe.
Israel lied.
Tonight, Israel is burning entire families alive—among them babies.
It is an unspeakable massacre.
Sanctions and arms embargoes on Israel now.
No more hollow statements and condemnations.
This is a death march. It’s estimated that the average Palestinian is only eating ~230 calories per day. Rafah to Jabalia is 22 miles! If Palestinians do not die from bombs they’re at risk of dying from hunger, thirst, exhaustion and illness. This is unbelievably inhumane.
“I’m an active duty member of the USAF & I‘ll no longer be complicit in genocide”. It’s notable Aaron served as a DevOps Engineer this last year—this prob means he was well-placed to witness the Air Force’s genocidal culpability, whether from firsthand project exp or personnel
You said israel had the right to starve Palestinians. You whipped your party to abstain on the ceasefire vote, you kicked out anyone who voted for it. You and your shadow cab defended the right of Israel to drop 2,000 pound bombs on refugee camps
30,000 dead. Blood on your hands
If you are feeling sad and hopeless that is completely understandable, but it's also a luxury we can't afford right now. Here's a list of some great organisations helping on the ground, just as a handy guide:
Palestine is calling for a global strike from the 21st - 28th of January 2024.
Here's a helpful guide on what you can do to participate in the strike, with alt text. Even if you can't do it all, do the most that you can.
