X has added a temporary label to my account to restrict its reach. I have not violated any of X’s rules.
Israel must be stopped.
Let’s be clear: The creeping annexation of the occupied West Bank is illegal. It must stop. The wholesale destruction of Gaza is intolerable. It must stop. Unilateral actions that would forever undermine the two-state solution are unacceptable. They must stop.
“#NZ’s largest teachers’ union taking Government to court over resource teacher cuts”. Resource teachers of literacy have given amazing support to teachers & children; are $$ being diverted to Minister’s own initiatives? Throwing baby out with bathwater? nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/nz…
1/ It seems that for the heart to feel, the eyes must see. Images of children dying of hunger have moved even Germany to call for an end to the tragedy. But how does it expect to achieve that if it refuses to adopt any sanctions against Israel? Kind words do not feed the hungry.
Pro-Palestinian Jewish activists, we salute you all ❤️
Anti-genocide Jewish activists stormed the Salzburg Festival in Austria, demanding a complete boycott of the Israeli occupation.
We laid pots outside the gates of Downing St, London, to represent Israel's starvation of Palestinians in Gaza, enabled as Director @BenJamalpsc says, by the moral cowardice of @Keir_Starmer and @DavidLammy
Chris Luxon and Winston Peters, how can you sleep at night? The starvation of Palestinian children must stop now.
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…
“It seemed to us that this was like a game of target practice. We’re gonna shoot the head today. Tomorrow it’ll be the chest. The next day it’ll be the testicles.” 12 days ago, surgeon Nick Maynard treated four young teenagers in Gaza who had all been shot in the testicles.
No one can ever claim they did not know: “Without a question, I witnessed war crimes”. 👇👇👇
MUST WATCH: Former US special forces lieutenant-colonel tells the BBC that he has never in his entire career "witnessed the level of brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population. I've never witnessed…
Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana are widely regarded as two of the UK’s most morally consistent politicians. Their popularity reflects a public demand for systemic change.
Our movement is growing, and growing, and growing. We said that real change was coming — and we meant it. Be part of history at yourparty.uk
Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis – it is a moral crisis that challenges the global conscience. We will continue to speak out. But words don’t feed hungry children. The @UN stands ready to make the most of a ceasefire to dramatically scale up humanitarian operations.
Never forget the numerous Jewish voices who continue to oppose Israeli government’s genocidal policies toward Palestinians. Thank you Miriam Margolyes.
Miriam Margolyes on Gaza with the @BigIssue.
Empty words cannot hide the truth: your government is complicit in genocide. We are an unstoppable movement for peace, for justice and for Palestine — and we are never, ever going away.
The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
Israel will forever be associated with starving babies 👇👇👇
NEW: 🇮🇱 Israel confiscates baby formula from foreign doctors at Gaza checkpoints — British surgeon Nick Maynard 'No formula allowed in. Every carton seized'
The United States is complicit in Israel’s crimes of genocide and starvation of Palestinians. Release the Epstein file.
The United States strongly rejects @EmmanuelMacron’s plan to recognize a Palestinian state at the @UN general assembly. This reckless decision only serves Hamas propaganda and sets back peace. It is a slap in the face to the victims of October 7th.
President Macron says France will recognise Palestine as a state 👇👇👇
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…
It has taken an enforced famine on two million people, including one million children, for the British media and voices across the political spectrum to finally raise serious protest against Israel’s crimes. Palestine is not a question of left or right. It is a question of right…
Because Israel refuses to allow any aid to be distributed outside the 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation' killing zones & the UN won't be party to mass slaughter. Resign now @GovMikeHuckabee You are an affront to humanity.
No one can ever claim they did not know: “….baby formula is being used as an instrument of occupation and as an instrument of war.”
“Aid, water supplies, fuel, medical supplies, goddammit baby formula [is] being used as an instrument of occupation and as an instrument of war”. Moazzam Malik, Chief Executive of @savechildrenuk says he has covered this conflict in Gaza for years and the pattern remains the…
The issue is imbalance “..lobbying is an important part of democracy, and regulated parties should be consulted on changes affecting them. ….. “One of the red flags of excessive influence [is] targeted engagement focused mainly on vested interests.” 👇👇👇

New Zealand must use its internationally respected voice to demand meaningful action against Israel to stop this forced starvation of Palestinians.
Nadia's cousin Sally, and her four children are being starved by Israel. Millions in Gaza are being deliberately starved while Israel withholds food mere kilometres away. Words are not enough. Governments must act and force Israel to open the borders and allow aid to flow in.
