My article is up and open access! I look at Israel's use of property law to advance sovereignty, and argue that it has been facilitated by - and helped to create - the Israeli conceptualization of land as territory when held by Jews and as a commodity when held by Palestinians.

Popping back in here to say I was really proud to co-sponsor and speak for this motion, and that it passed by such a wide margin. Find me in the other place!

A permanent Israeli seizure of northern Gaza appears dangerously imminent. My latest for @guardianopinion. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

J Street cannot express strongly enough opposition to the ideas being put forward by President Trump regarding Gaza. There aren’t adequate words to express our disgust at the idea of forcible displacement of Palestinians with the assistance of the United States of America. 1/5

יאיר גולן, לא ככה נראה תגובה של מי שדואג לביטחונם ולעתידם של אזרחי ישראל. מי שכושל בלהבין שעתידם של הישראלים תלוי בעתידם של הפלסטינים, ומי שלא מבין שאף אחד מאיתנו לא הולך לעזוב את הארץ, יהודים או פלסטינים - הוא לא רק מנהיג כושל אלא גם איש שמאל כושל. לא צריך אותך כדי להתחנף לימין.

True, but meanwhile the idea of population transfer is getting legitimacy

Israel's official policy is the expulsion of two million people from their homes and homeland. Will @BoardofDeputies @PhilR_R @JLC_uk @chiefrabbi continue their uncritical support for Israel? Or will they show some moral leadership?

We're now posting over on the other place too! Find us there posting as ukfost.

This evening at the @JewishLabour AGM I was proud to propose a motion in support of @omdimbeyachad. Having known the organisation since 2019, I could not be more proud that the motion was overwhelmingly passed. It sends a powerful message of hope. You can read it in full below⤵️

The next US ambassador to Israel: ‘There’s no such thing as settlements, there’s no such thing as occupation.’ Trump will permanently solidify the power of extremists at the heart of the Israeli gvt. Sanction Ben Gvir & Smotrich now. Write to your MP yachad.org.uk/SanctionsNow

The Zionists on here act as a club where membership requires ignoring all evidence of Israeli wrongdoing in Gaza and Lebanon or you are labeled a Hamas supporter. I’m sick of it and I won’t play along. There is increasing evidence of Israeli war crimes, and it’s morally repugnant…

When the first thing you do after being elected is threaten the security of your allies to protect one of your biggest donors, we usually call that corruption

I hate anti-Semitism. I hate anti-Arab racism. In fact, I hate racism of any kind. I hate thuggery ruining the beautiful game. But most of all, I hate the fact children & women are being killed while the world watches on. Worse, so many governments are complicit. For shame.

🚨New alert regarding risk of famine in Gaza: "Food availability in the Gaza Strip needs to be considered in a context where food systems have collapsed."

I walk into Shabbat with a heavy heart.

This is spot on, and it's also how many commentators misunderstand Trump. "Cultural majority" national populism is alluring for minority groups as a path into being "us" by collectively hating a new "them", globalist liberal woke elite billionaire illegal immigrants or whatever

"Petropoulos says that the smell of rotting corpses permeates the entire Gaza Strip. It emanates from the rubble, under which people were buried, and dogs run around with human remains in their mouths." haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

As w/ Victor Orban in Hungary (Christian), Narendra Modi in India (Hindu), Recep Tayyib Erdoġan in Turkey (Muslim), & Bibi Netanyahu in Israel (Jewish), we are entering a period of US history where an authoritarian leader yoked to a relig nationalist movt has come to power. 17/

Israel passed a law to deport its own citizens. It applies to Palestinian citizens of Israel who knew about family's attacks beforehand or “express support or identification w/ terrorism.” Does any other country deport its own citizens? And will this survive court challenges?

Many Jewish Israelis have been involved in acts of terrorism and the support of terrorism. Even our Minister of National Security has been convicted for supporting a terrorist organization and incitement to racism. Yet, none of them will be deported. You all know why.

"There is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes" - IDF Clearing out one ethnic group of people to replace them with another. The very textbook definition of ethnic cleansing. What more will it take for you to speak out?
