Nuthin but a Tea thing

In honor and loving memory of Maryam, my cousin’s granddaughter, who was killed by the Israeli army on this day.

I am absolutely convinced that if Israel fired a nuclear missile at Tehran, around ninety percent of the British political and media establishment would explain in grave tones why it was necessary, if regretable, and that those who object are vile extremists and antisemites.

I listened to Mariam speaking. She kept repeating the same heartbreaking words:

“I want my mum.”

“My body hurts.”

“There was a lot of fire.”

You don’t hate Israel enough

A message from our gig in Mexico City just now by Nadya Layla Rasheed, Palestinian Ambassador to Mexico.

PALESTINA LIBRE! 🇵🇸
PALESTINA LIBRE! 🇵🇸
PALESTINA LIBRE! 🇵🇸

Andy Burnham deliberately conflating Anti-Semtism with Anti-Zionism makes Jewish people like myself, less safe.

Palestinian farmers in the village of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, confront Israeli settler attacks targeting them during the olive harvest, refusing to give up their land.

This is what Israel’s Channel 12 published — Amit Segal:

“All this for Gaza… MK84 bombs weighing one ton each.

This footage shows the beginning of the military buildup for Gaza in 2023. This shipment was rushed to Israel from a U.S. military base in an Arab country that Palestinians consider a sisterly nation.

The shipment traveled through the Arabian Gulf, crossed the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, and eventually arrived at the port of Ashdod.”

This story is extremely important:

A whistleblower revealed that Brazil's far-right Bolsonaro family dynasty met with Meta to discuss US plans to interfere in Brazil's election, to prevent Lula from winning.

Lula's Facebook and Instagram accounts were censored a few days before the first round of the presidential election.

This had a huge impact on the election, because Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, which are all owned by Meta, are the most popular apps in Brazil, and are hugely influential all across Latin America. (Jair Bolsonaro's son Flávio was declared the winner of the first round of the vote, by a narrow margin.)

Meta later admitted that Lula's accounts had been restricted, but it claimed that this was supposedly due to a "technical error"...

The whistleblower who disclosed this is Nadia Beller, a Bolivian journalist who was almost killed by hitmen hired by Fernando Cerimedo, a far-right Argentine political operative who oversees election interference, bots, and disinformation campaigns.

Cerimedo is closely linked to the US government and has worked for pretty much every right-wing leader in Latin America. He was photographed with Donald Trump Jr. and members of the Bolsonaro family, and he received an award at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida a few months before he was arrested for the failed assassination attempt against Beller, his pregnant ex-girlfriend.

It’s helpful to see where the only red lines in British politics actually are.

There are parties with councillors who want to establish concentration camps for migrants and machine-gun helpless refugees in the open seas, but this is what Labour considers beyond the pale.

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

After the West watched the Rwanda genocide unfold without intervening, it apologized and promised never to make the same mistake again.

It hasn’t. This time western capitals actively assisted in helping Israel commit genocide.

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

British police arrested five journalists under the Terrorism Act

Their crime? Covering a protest outside a factory of Israel's Elbit Systems, which makes drones and munitions used in the Gaza genocide

35 protesters were arrested for demonstrating outside the factory with signs

🔴 Israeli soldiers prevent Lebanese farmers from harvesting their own olives.

Farmers in Kfarshouba, Lebanon, were confronted and prevented by Israeli forces from accessing the Azraïel and Bastara areas to harvest their olives.

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

The IDF is not allowing water in to Ras al-Ahmar for a month now. The area is the hottest in the entire West Bank, sitting in the Jordan Valley, with temperatures reaching 113 (45 Celsius) this time of year. They hope to see the residents either die of dehydration or leave. There are around 300 residents, including many children and babies.

[Basel Adra @basel_adra]

Israel has deliberately transformed the Palestinian olive harvest into a war zone, where occupation soldiers and settlers wage an organized campaign of terror against Palestinian farmers on their own land.
And the world continues to turn a blind eye.

This is how Netanyahu’s ’most moral army’ delivered flour to Gaza residents
