And London's public event was cancelled.
BREAKING: The Muslim prayer room of Cafe Raha in Blackburn was fire bombed today, but thankfully, there was no synagogue nearby, so we're not bothering with a Cobra meeting x
⚡️JUST IN:
Over 40 celebrities including Billie Eilish, Finneas, Cillian Murphy, Joaquin Phoenix, Steve Coogan, Annie Mac, and Peter Gabriel, appear in a Together for Palestine video calling for a Gaza ceasefire, released ahead of today’s benefit concert in London.
For anyone still parroting the ‘both sides’ nonsense, don’t take our word for it. Pick up any neutral, straightforward, factual book on the Israeli-Palestine conflict and read about 77 years of occupation, oppression, violence, bombing, forced removal, displacement … (1/5)
Watching politicians and mainstream media suddenly change their rhetoric on the genocide makes me feel like I’ve truly gone crazy. Can someone please confirm that a few weeks ago they villainized us on the front pages for being against this while they were very much pro-genocide.
Fuck every single person who ignores all of this. You are all rotten human beings. I don’t care if that makes you upset, or offended.
My family is literally starving to death. Fuck your entertainment. Fuck your movies. Fuck your shows.
You can’t even be bothered to tweet. 🖕
So what's the plan here? We just sit and watch Israel starve Gaza to death with the support of our own governments?
And then what? We just go along with our lives, knowing that that happened? That this is what we are as a society? That our civilization is comfortable allowing something like that to happen? And that our rulers could do the same thing to another inconvenient population at any time?
We're just meant to be cool with that? And go on living like it's normal?
I'm genuinely curious. How exactly is everyone planning to go about living their lives after that point? How does that work, exactly?
Today, the Israeli military dropped a bomb on children in Gaza waiting for food supplements.
This is the result.
You want to look away, don’t you?
Even if you do, you cannot escape the fact that your government is facilitating this abomination.
Do
Not
Look
Away
This is devastating.
Over a hundred BBC staff have signed a letter declaring they've been forced to do PR for Israel.
Just the latest chapter in the biggest scandal of Western journalism of our time

I’ve spent 15 yrs studying the Middle East. I speak Arabic. I have a PhD on the region. Gaza isn't “complex.” It’s ethnic cleansing—just easier to swallow when you rebrand it “nuanced geopolitics” and sneer at “naive middle-class idiots” for being rightly appalled.
