It’s fascinating how the BBC News online coverage of the occupation in Gaza has become DRAMATICALLY more critical of Israel.
It is explicitly attributing causation to Israel since the news broke about the court case between Raffi Berg and Owen Jones’s last week.
@Jenny_1884 You don’t pay tax again. That would be ridiculous. You’ve paid it already.
Isn’t it an amazingly generous system where someone can be given £325,000 without having to pay any tax?
@Jenny_1884 Would it be fair if someone who has got lucky in life, inherited well and produced nothing of value in their own endeavours, is afforded comfortable end of life in a caring setting, but someone who grafted and didn’t earn enough to buy a house is denied the same?
Well done to all those who have tirelessly campaigned for the recognition of Palestine — an inalienable right of the Palestinian people.
Next, the UK should recognise the genocide in Gaza, end its complicity in crimes against humanity, and stop arming Israel.
@10DowningStreet@Keir_Starmer Tomorrow needs to demonstrate serious change of tack with the Israelis. They are flagrantly breaking international law on multiple fronts, aggressively bombing civilians across the region. I will soon resign my membership over our failure to act.
In Bradford, UK, activists unveiled a replica of the car where 6-year-old Hind Rajab was found martyred in Gaza City, her body riddled with 335 bullets fired by Israeli occupation forces. The installation, placed in a public square, commemorates what would have been her 7th birthday (May 4th). Hind had pleaded for help during her final phone call, surrounded by the bodies of her family members, also killed in the car. A Red Crescent rescue team, dispatched after coordinating with the Israeli occupation army, was later found killed as well. Recently, the Hind Rajab Foundation filed a war crimes complaint with the International Criminal Court, naming Lieutenant Colonel Beni Aharon, then-commander of the IDF's 401st Armored Brigade, as responsible for the attack that killed Hind, her family, and the medics. The foundation's investigation identified the military unit and its commanders involved in the operation.
