🧵deconstructing "Judeo-Christian"
the term was basically popularised by US anti-communists from the 60s onwards to propose an imaginary history of civilisation where Israel and the West are allied against godless commies and fanatical mullahs. it is a pure ideological dogwhistle and with zero historical content.
re the Lionesses game
just wandered into my local for my usual pint and it was full of women watching the game. so today was the first time I've been in a pub full of boozy women cheering on the football while I sit and read a book in the corner. obvs happened with boozy men on innumerable occasions.
David has retreated to the bunker
It does not matter how many people scream about famine and forced starvation in Gaza... It still won't be true. So the Jews have a lot of enemies willing to demonise them, accuse them of the vilest deeds, and spread blood libels about them.. Tell me something I do not know.
Did any of you think The Daily Express would be first to discover a Shred of Humanity?
I’m not exaggerating, by the way. In 2018 he called Labour ‘the party of holocaust denial’.
I remember it being reported he was wearing a bomber jacket. That he jumped the barriers. Only for it to come out he was wearing a denim jacket and had not jumped any barriers. But I’m supposed to believe the officer who shot him “feared for his life”
I remember that day. We heard news reports that a suicide bomber had been shot dead on the tube. As the day went on the details got murkier and murkier. I remember thinking: surely they can't have just executed some random member of the public?
columbia is a glorified Israeli military base. I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous this school is. columbia protects sexual predators like Robert Hadden. admin gives special treatment to students who lobby for deportations. they will ruin your life to please donors.
columbia just suspended 80 students at once ranging from 1-3 year long suspensions & barnard hasn’t even released their sanctions yet. they have also been systematically targeting students by tripling tuition or removing our financial aid altogether w/ no explanation
This began in collaboration with Israel in Oct 2023 - there is really viable explanation for RAF surveillance flights over Gaza than feeding info to Israel. As Starmer said at RAF Akrotori, its Cyprus base (Dec 24), ‘some of what goes on here can’t necessarily be talked about’.
Military source told The Times last year the UK spy plane Labour is sending over Gaza daily is “able to look at streets and blocks and houses and zoom in on specific movements…they have really good sensors” Intel gathered is given to Israel ICC needs to arrest Starmer + Lammy
Btw, the Portuguese Wikipedia article about Jean Charles’ murder has a section about former edits defaming him in the English version, coming from UK government IP addresses (as reported in 2014 by the The Guardian and Channel 4). The English Wiki article doesn’t mention this
Twenty years ago today, Jean Charles de Menezes was assassinated at Stockwell station. Head of the Met Police, Ian Blair, was made a Lord. Cressida Dick, who led the operation, was promoted to Blair's position.
I can honestly say few things bring me as much joy as seeing my tweets broadcast live on Yemeni state television 🇾🇪

Why has Les Wexner never been formally investigated, questioned or subpoenaed despite being Epstein’s primary financial enabler and property benefactor?

When I see things like this, from people like this, at this stage, I assume they're expecting that things are about to spiral. They're not acting, they're making ass-covering statements. Why have they suddenly decided their ass needs cover?
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.…
In Poplar and Limehouse, we are clear: refugees are welcome here. In the face of relentless demonisation and targeting, we continue to stand with migrants for their rights to safety and dignity. It’s the far-right and their hateful ideology that are not welcome here.
BREAKING: Columbia University has announced mass sanctions on nearly 80 pro-Palestine protesters — they have been suspended for 1 to 3 years or expelled from Columbia for joining a protest at the university's Butler Library in May this year, according to Columbia University…
I am hearing that on his deathbed Ozzy Osborne received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahāda. Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but God, and Mohammed is his prophet!
UPDATE: 75+ MPs have signed my motion calling on Keir Starmer to fulfil his promise to introduce the Hillsborough Law "in full and without delay". It would be a grave mistake for him to return to Liverpool for Labour conference in September without first fulfilling this pledge.
