Are Private Eye jokes now... criminal? PALESTINE Solidarity campaigner Jon Farley was arrested, bundled into a van and taken to the cells during a silent march in Leeds last weekend. What egregious act had prompted the police to act? He was, er, carrying a Private Eye joke piece…
Your charity, your words of shock after the genocide, won’t make a difference. We will not accept your apology after the genocide. What has been done, has been done. I want you to look in the mirror, and ask: where was I when Gaza was going through a genocide?
I wish this did happen but I’d bet money she totally made it up.
Ms. Feltz says this was some weeks ago at 6 o'clock in Leicester Square as she left work. No demonstration was taking place. Shouldn't there be CCTV footage for this incident she only just mentioned? Maybe the female who told her to run remembers the date? Just saying.
The UK voice of Israel’s “Palestinian Authority” collaboration regime refuses to condemn the proscription of Palestine Action and calls for police to “deal with” what he describes as “any criminal acts” in the context of protests.
'So you have no issue with the way it's being policed?' 'If any criminal acts are committed, I hope the police deal with it...' Husam Zomlot stops short of giving a definitive answer to whether he supports Palestine Action being proscribed as a terrorist organisation.
Thank you, Belgium. We love you. Now prosecute the others. Other Europe countries must follow this right now, specially Ireland where Zionist soldiers are hiding. Come on, every country across the globe.

Absolutely evil scum.
Yesterday, Christian Friends of Israel came together in Cornwall for a vigil to raise awareness for the remaining 50 hostages still in Hamas captivity. Among the posters of hostages still held in Gaza, they held signs that read “we stand with the Jewish community.”
"Kent has not issued an apology or a retraction. The Secretary of State has not come out and said that this is a manifest misapplication of the law", Blinne declares. There is therefore no reason to believe the incident in Kent will not be replicated across the country.
Elbit Systems, Israel's largest arms firm and Palestine Action's main target, plays a key role in these war crimes and crimes against humanity, Blinne adds. Elbit “markets itself as the backbone of the IDF and describes its employees as civil soldiers”, she says.

The Israeli Authorities are starving civilians in #Gaza. Among them are 1 million children. Lift the siege: allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines.
There are millions of people in Gaza still alive who could be saved from starvation by simply opening the gates. Famine is happening because Israel and the US and the UK want it too.
UNRWA has enough food for the entire population of #Gaza for over three months stockpiled in warehouses–including this one in Al Arish, Egypt–awaiting entry. The supplies are available. The systems are in place. Open the gates, lift the siege, allow UNRWA to do its work and…
Like the Nazis before them, the Zionists are liquidating the ghetto they created. This time, with no Red Army on the horizon and the entirety of the Western world backing them to the hilt, the fascists are executing their final solution brazenly, in full sight of humanity.
People now collapsing in the street with organ failure and dying in Gaza due to extreme malnutrition because Israel blocks world organizations from delivering food into Gaza. The group of private contractors Israel permits routinely massacres Gazans in line for tiny rations:
It appears that sympathy for Palestine Action has spread to Australia.
Update: All 9 activists who were arrested at the EOS protest have been released on bail. Please send some dollars to our fighting fund if you are able. api.chuffed.org/project/waca-s…
Activist are still on the roof of EOS weapons factory in Canberra. EOS you can’t hide your supplying genocide. 6 people still locked on. STOP ARMING ISRAEL FREE PALESTINE! #shutitdown
We are literally watching our Gaza correspondents starving live on TV, watching their bodies go thinner and thinner, their faces paler and paler, the look in their eyes sadder and sadder. This is unforgivable. History will not forgive us for having let this happen. Shame on us
