“They brought me here to kill me. I don't see myself surviving. This is the end.”
These are the words of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, the paediatrician who ran Gaza's last children's hospital. He has been held without charge by Israel for over 18 months, alongside at least 13 other Palestinian doctors from Gaza.
His lawyers say he has been held in solitary confinement, beaten, starved, and denied medical care. He is now in life-threatening danger and requires urgent hospitalisation.
Silence is complicity. @YvetteCooperMP must demand his immediate release and urgent medical treatment NOW.
@thecoralband@thewildoutdoors Watched it again last night. I love how the influences are prevalent throughout and it really is a snapshot to yesteryear.
Today four activists face terror-related sentences for taking direct action against an Elbit Systems weapons factory in Filton, Bristol - a factory that makes drones sent to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel to kill Palestinians in Gaza.
Back in April, I warned in Parliament that jurors would not be told terrorism sentences could follow a criminal damage conviction.
No terrorism charges were ever brought. The proscription against Palestine Action has since been ruled unlawful. The defendants were even prevented from telling the jury they acted to stop genocide.
This is a Labour government defending Israeli death factories and stripping away all of our fundamental rights.
Everyone who cares about our democracy should be outraged.

Listening to 388 by @thecoralband and revelling in the lyrical and emotional connection to the great muriarty (the voice of coral island) on crossing the sands. Fucking brilliant! By the way who said I was crying! 😂

Are you listening @Keir_Starmer?
More than 3,200 lawyers including 300 top barristers and retired judges have called on you to drop your plan to restrict the right to trial by jury.
30 organisations representing victims of violence against women and girls have written to the Justice Secretary urging him against curtailing the right to jury trials.
Trial by jury is a cornerstone of our democracy and an essential safeguard against authoritarianism. The government has no mandate to restrict it - a move which will put us on a path toward authoritarian justice.
It’s not too late for the government to listen to the thousands of voices of victims, judges, barristers, other legal professionals and academics who oppose this blatant act of constitutional vandalism.

@SuzieWo20886208 Friend was awaiting mri scan and asked question whether it would have been quicker to do it private. The reply was do you have a spare £35,000? And it would be done by same person regardless of the fee.
😡😡A private company is trying to buy hundreds of GP surgeries
Here's what should really concern you: they have an insider in the Department for Health.
UNICEF is outraged by the killing of two drivers of trucks contracted by UNICEF to provide clean water to families in the Gaza Strip.
The victims were killed by Israeli fire in an incident that took place early this morning at the Mansoura water filling point in northern Gaza. UNICEF extends our condolences to the families of the men killed.

@doctor_rahmeh arrested AGAIN by the Met for the ‘israeli’ jewish lobby. Fifth (5) time for WORDS, for SOCIAL MEDIA posts.
7 officers, cuffed, a van and a car, an overnight hotel stay for the officers and then driven to London under arrest for WORDS and POSTS. All this for one woman who spoke out against jewish supremacy and ‘israel’ during a Genocide inflicted upon Palestinians by them. For speaking out against how jewish supremacy affects Britain and the world. For speaking truth. For having a spine and a soul.
As a reference point - Peter Mendelson was arrested casually without handcuffs and let go without bail for passing on state sensitive information to Epstein. A man in the middle of the Epstein regime, violent to women and children, was arrested less severely than a woman for words. Those serving the Epstein regime are more aggressive to a woman speaking against it than protecting a woman.
At this point what the ‘israel’ jewish lobby are using the Met (and our institutions) for is terrorism against Rahmeh and against us all
Terrorism - the calculated use of violence or threat of violence against civilians or property to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals.
Smear campaigns the passed few days and an arrest at her home. The same pattern each time. Manufacturing consent and then enacting their crime.
We should all be extremely angry and very afraid of what is happening to us, our Doctors, our freedoms and our rights. This is not happening in a vacuum.
Streets of Havana right now.
Full blackout across the entire island.
Hospitals, nursing homes, people's lives....all in total darkness.
For US imperialism.
