1) A thread on Cutting Through Spin. @LeoVaradkar contacted @HSELive re the death of a teenager in Limerick hospital. Leo calls for inquiry & as a doctor, cautions us against jumping to conclusions about a death of a young girl left on trolley in an overcrowded, Emergency Dept.

This is very revealing. Bob Geldof tells the Sky anchor that Israel is lying, and the anchor almost falls off his chair. "They're lying, did you say???" He blurts out, almost in shock. Would there have been any shock if you had said that Russia is lying? Or Iran, or China?…

In @BylineTimes in December, I reported how, in a meeting with Starmer, the Palestinian community begged him to allow just 15 gravely injured children from Gaza into the U.K. The community said they’d take full financial responsibility. Starmer allowed not a single one in.
🔴🇮🇱Israeli Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu: "The army must find ways more painful than death for the civilians in Gaza. Killing them is not enough."
I've seen videos of fathers picking up pieces of their children. People in tents being burned alive. Mothers shot dead while begging for food. And now, emaciated babies in the last moments of their lives. Israel's war on Gaza is the most evil thing I have ever seen in my life.
Members of European Parliament, do you remember how the majority of you voted last year to “strongly condemn Hamas’ hijacking and looting of aid”, despite lack of evidence, as a way to “bothside” the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza?

Does he know he’s made it illegal for anyone else to say this and has been arresting pensioners for protesting exactly this.
The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
🧵 As in earlier wars, Israelis are being offered the mass killings in Gaza as a spectacle. They come to a mound in Sderot to enjoy the show and take selfies, using the genocide as a backdrop as you and I would a waterfall or a rainbow. @BowenBBC visited the place.
This is Comical Ali stuff at this stage.
"We call on the @UN: Leave your collaborative effort with Hamas." Israel is ready to flood Gaza with aid. The GHF is delivering food to the people of Gaza, not to Hamas. But the UN is slowing us down by insisting on collaborating with Hamas. Hunger in Gaza is on the UN-Hamas…
This is the best ever true news BBC ever made about Israel, 4 minutes but every minute is extremely important
BBC sacked Gary Lineker for calling this shit out. He should sue them

Beautiful bad ass rebel. In 2014, offered 10 times her usual fee & broke, Sinéad O’Connor cancelled a gig in apartheid Israel in solidarity with the Palestinian people. “There’s not a sane person on earth who in any way sanctions what the fuck the Israeli authorities are doing.”

The “we can no longer stay silent” line is so deeply disturbing. As if everything up until this point was fine: the maimed children, the slaughter of tens of thousands, the non stop carpet bombing… Why were you silent in the first place? Shame on all of you.
Headlines in US media are finally getting honest.
UTTERLY BIZARRE. We have had 16 National Marches for Palestine, countless other demos, plus all the mobilisation around the country for almost two years. We have shown consistent solidarity with our Palestinian sisters and brothers. None of it acknowledged by the government 1🧵
Think of all those pro-Israel pundits you saw on your television screens this past year trying to sociopathically justify the mass starvation of Gaza by robotically claiming Hamas steals the aid. They were all lying. Shamelessly. Even the Israeli military confirms it now.

Dan's tweet is grotesque, it runs counter to the most natural of human urges - protect our young from harm. This depravity is nothing new. This same hatred was once used to dehumanise innocent Jewish children. What is wrong with people? How are they living fuelled with this hate?
You may have deleted this tweet but here's a screenshot to document your depravity @DanFriedman81
Right now outside of 10 Downing Street. The great British people protesting Israel’s deliberate mass starvation of #Gaza
