'Malak Mesleh’s slaughter in Gaza by a missile manufactured on the other side of the world at the cost of a million dollars defines our world in so many different ways. She was born into poverty, but became rich in her refusal to allow material disadvantages to circumscribe her…
Glory and Grief in the Global South - Mary Kom’s fists made history in the boxing world. Malak Mesleh’s never got the chance. One story ends in glory, the other in grief — but both highlight the defiance of women who dare to fight, writes JOHN WIGHT morningstaronline.co.uk/article/glory-…
#OnThisDay in 1946, members of Zionist terror gang the Irgun, disguised as 'Arab' workmen, bombed the British administrative headquarters in the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. The bombing came in response to Operation Agatha — British mandate authorities had previously raided…
Israel's siege is starving the people of Gaza. We have joined more than 100 aid and rights groups to demand action - before there is no one left to save. Read the full statement here: bit.ly/3GPCpAE
More than 100 aid agencies say 'mass starvation' is spreading across Gaza bbc.in/3TTQMa0
Yes, the super rich have been allowed to get rich to the point where they are holding the rest of us to ransom. We are past the point where the solution is to tax the rich. We need to think now about the concept of expropriating the expropriators.
If the government keeps losing its wealth the welfare state is over. On @LBC just now.
An absolute car crash. Lammy knows that his time is up. He took the shekels and now he is paying the price. The Israelis groomed him, recruited him as one of their useful idiots, and in the course of this interview it dawns on him. He's been hoodwinked and run amok.
Spoke to the Foreign Secretary this morning about the situation in Gaza - here's a brief clip...
STANDING UP AGAINST GENOCIDE‼️ Dancer Danni Perry raised a Palestine flag at the Royal Opera House. Director Oliver Mears told him "You will never work at the opera house again." I told him— "I don't give a flying fuck."
Our powerful @Daily_Express front page for tomorrow. The brutal suffering in Gaza must end. The shocking image shows Muhammad Zakariya Ayyoub al-Matouq, one, who weighs the same as three-month old baby due to the humanitarian crisis following the continued blocking of basic aid…
I wonder if any US politicians, as they love to show off in photo-ops, personally signed the bombs that killed these victims. In any event, they voted to use their constituents' money to pay for them.
Nazi Germany, Vichy France, Fascist Italy, Franco's Spain, Romania, and Tojo's Japan have designated the Maquis as a terrorist organization.
Me voting all these helpful
I have steadfastly refused to use this word, because genocide described the horror until now, but this is *a holocaust.* The Zionist regime is enacting a *final solution* against the Gazan people. Without action, within months, 2.2million people will ALL be dead.
The Zionist holocaust regime has lost the Daily Express
I lived in Gaza for 3 months in 2003. (19yo me far left). It was a horrendous dystopia, but even then I never imagined the Zionists would attempt a "final solution" on the population. It is an unbelievable horror. We must stop it. If we cannot we must chase justice forever.
There’s heartbreaking images and there’s images that feel like you’ve been punched in the gut several times over because your brain cannot process the utter atrocities of what it’s seeing. Especially as a mum myself. Bairns my son’s age & younger. Fucking hell it hurts.
Images out of Gaza today are the worst I've ever seen. Children piled on a hospital floor, bloody, injured, dying, dead. A toddler with her intestines outside her body while another screams in terror, reaching out for safety. I can't express this feeling. The rage, the shame.
O'Brien threw @SangitaMyska under the bus. Now the bus is rolling over him. You can never appease liars and charlatans by becoming one yourself.
“@LBC should apologise, and take @mrjamesob off air.” - VP @AndrewGilbert1 See our full statement below 👇
She couldn’t give a damn. The prospect of The Hague is driving this sudden faux concern. It’s too late. We’ve got the receipts.
Civilians cannot be targets. Never. The images from Gaza are unbearable. The EU reiterates its call for the free, safe and swift flow of humanitarian aid. And for the full respect of international and humanitarian law. Civilians in Gaza have suffered too much, for too long.…
“If you have a voice, use it” Says the MP who abstained on the vote to proscribe Palestine Action…
If you have a voice, use it. #Gaza
hey,I’m a Yorkshire man me,I say what I like and I like what I bloody well say!!!!!
Trump has chosen to end the UN instead of genocide. He is the barbaric twisted product of US exceptionalism and white supremacy.
Hundreds of Israelis are now marching in the center of Tel Aviv against the starvation of Gaza at the hands of the Israeli government. Some are holding sacks of flour.
The whole of the UK state should be proscribed newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…
