Karl: Israel is a Jewish state. That’s in the charter. Do you support that?

Mamdani: I’ve said time and again that I support the state of Israel as a state with equal rights.

Karl: As jewish state?

Mamdani: I believe that any state that privileges one religion over another is one that I can’t tell you I support, whether it be Israel or Saudi Arabia or anywhere else. And a lot of that comes back to a fundamental belief that we should all be considered equal, no matter what our faith is.

“There is no doubt whatsoever… that every international legal norm has been violated by the actions of the Israeli authorities towards Palestinian children, and they need to be held accountable.”

Chris Sidoti, a member of the UN’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, called for justice for Palestinian children at the release of a new report on Tuesday.

The report found Israel is deliberately killing and torturing children – and subjecting them to sexual violence – as part of its genocide against Palestinians.

Commission chair Srinivasan Muralidhar described how Israel’s attacks, along with its illegal blockade, have led to babies undergoing amputations with no anaesthetic.

“You can imagine the agony those children went through,” he said.

"The children you operated on, what did they tell you these quadcopters did?"

Nizam Mamode "One child who was 7, who described.. a bomb was dropped, he was knocked over by the blast.. he heard a drone above him, turned round, then it fired on him. We have many reports like that"

The number one reason Labour lost so many voters to the Greens? Gaza.

And yet much of the mainstream media is already omitting this crucial part of Keir Starmer’s legacy, argues Naked Politics founder Banseka Kayembe on Novara Live.

Far from being an “emblem of the rule of law” and “a general beacon of goodness”, Starmer and his government have “aided and abetted a genocide”.

A collection of clips of Labour MP's condoning genocide.
Never forget, never forget.

[Sarah Leah Whitson @sarahleah1]

Very important to note that the UN Commission of Inquiry's conclusion is not only that Israel is indiscriminately killing children in Gaza, but *deliberately* targeting them.

In all my years covering conflicts in the Middle East, I've never before seen armed forces *deliberately* targeting children. But the receipts are there for all to see...

"We can't tell the world what you are doing here..."

While Prime Minister, Keir Starmer thanked British soldiers at RAF Akrotiri. They were secretly aiding Israel's genocide in Gaza.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

It's obvious to point out attacks against Muslims get ignored - but still needs repeatedly calling out.

An Antisemitic attack should be reported and action taken.

But where is the same media outrage, cobra meetings and calling of national emergency when 5 Muslims are attacked?

[Daniel Mayakovski @DaniMayakovski]

"Controlamos entre el 60%-70% de la Franja de Gaza, estamos destruyendo toda su estructura, todo el mundo sabe lo que esto significa. Gaza se quedará en ruinas y los habitantes tendrán que migrar porque alli no habrá nada donde vivir en las próximas décadas".

Bezalel Smotrich, ministro de Finanzas de "Israel", habla orgulloso de la limpieza étnica y la destrucción sistemática que perpetran en Gaza, asegurando que el objetivo es hacerla inhabitable para que los palestinos tengan que huir de allí.

En mundo medio normal, después de que un ministro suelte esta barbaridad, tendría que ser detenido inmediatamente por crímenes de lesa de humanidad.

You know what Burnham and Markerfield proves?

This is a good country. Full of good people. This app is false. It’s a meeting point for wankers who share racist and xenophobic ideas.

You lot crack on, best of luck. England is REAL offline. That’s the best England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🩵🫱🏾‍🫲🏻🫱🏽‍🫲🏾

[Shadi Hamid @shadihamid]

Well said. It's anti-semitic to conflate American Jews with the state of Israel and its policies, which would suggest some kind of dual loyalty. It's always critical to make this distinction as clear as day.

[Lance Lachlan ✌🏻 @lancelachlan]

83% of Britain is white.
87% of MPs are white.
92% of police officers are white.
94% of the House of Lords is white.
85% of Britain’s richest families are white.

Yet we’re supposed to believe Britain is gripped by “systemic anti-white racism”?

Give it a rest.

It’s a far-right grievance industry built on outrage, not evidence. If white Britons overwhelmingly dominate politics, policing, wealth and power, the conspiracy theory simply doesn’t survive contact with reality. #UKPolitics

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

There’s a clear pattern here: removing trial by jury for a whole layer of cases; blocking Cenk Uyghur and Hasan Piker from entering the country; the Filton 4 being sentenced as terrorists but not charged as terrorists (yes, really); a British citizen in Russia having his citizenship removed without being charged with anything; stuff like this - constantly.

It’s becoming so normal now. There’s a great phrase ‘turnkey tyranny’: you might like the people doing this today, or despise those on the receiving end, but tomorrow it WILL be different. The end point is very obvious. And these tools, and this trajectory, in the wrong hands, is quite a terrifying thought.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

I condemn any attempt to sell property in the settlements in the West Bank, be that in London or anywhere else in the world.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.

Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.

A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

The ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ is to be held in London this Sunday.

This disgraceful event will involve the sale of land stolen from Palestinians in illegal Israeli settlements.

Today, I called for the Government to ban this event.

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

Will the BBC do a long monologue about the United States' human rights record, its treatment of migrants, and the killing of its own citizens? And will they refuse to broadcast the World Cup opening ceremony, as they did with Qatar?

Let's keep the same standards and the same energy.

[Guz Khan 🥶 @GuzKhanOfficial]

When is everyone going to realise that social media isn’t a tool for freedom of speech.

It’s a tool being used by the rich and powerful to radicalise the world en masse.

Divide and conquer is being implemented at scale like we’ve never seen.

We’re all falling for it. Wake up!

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

Andy Burnham voted for the Iraq War, an illegal war that killed over a million people.

As Health Secretary, he helped drive NHS privatisation.

He joined Labour Friends of Israel, opposed BDS as “spiteful”, praised Israel as a “democracy”, and called the Balfour Declaration “British values in action”. He is a Zionist.

Stop pretending he’s a radical alternative, he’s more of the same.

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

The govt rejects the petition signed by 114,216 people to hold a public enquiry into pro-Israel influence in Britain.

In unrelated news, half the Cabinet has been funded by the pro-Israel lobby, the last time we looked.
