Another Hebrew-only Ynet piece—this time by veteran Israeli reporter Ron Ben-Yishai—is more candid and direct than anything printed in English. It lays out how the Israeli government is starving Gaza and killing those desperate enough to seek food.
For those saying I'm lying, or that my experiences aren't representative, here's @simonerzim talking about her Jewish upbringing in LA. Anti-Arab racism, and the epistemological genocide of Palestinians, is an integral part of Jewish education the world over.
At my Jewish primary school & cheder, we were taught not only that Arab lives were worth less than Jewish ones, but that "Palestinians" didn't exist. Anyone who denies this is commonplace within Jewish communities is lying. Watch the film 'Israelism'.

This is disgraceful from @mrjamesob – platforming a modern blood libel against Jews live on national radio. There’s no such thing as “Shabbat school”. No Jewish child in the UK is taught that vile, racist nonsense. This is a stain on @LBC and its producers.

The British "wealth exodus" is a big fat myth. Stories of the wealthy fleeing from potential wealth taxes have been pushed by consultancies who sells "golden passports" and residence visas to their wealthy clients. They have a direct stake in pushing this narrative. 1/3
"I think Israel has that right" was not in response to a question about guns or bombs, but about cutting off water, the strategy of forced starvation and thirst. He should never, ever be allowed to forget it.
I think I'm finding the images of starvation harrowing in a way that goes beyond any of the documentation of the genocide we've seen so far. Unimaginable horror. The shame will never be washed off.
Most drone killing footage from Israeli units is withheld from publication, as the vast majority, if not all, depict the hunting and killing of unarmed civilians targeted solely for being within the visible or lethal range of the soldiers.
Defence spending is supposed to be increased by around 117% over the next decade. Weird they don't do this framing with that innit?
Costs of U.K. welfare state likely to rise 26% in the next 5 years. The economy not likely to grown by more than 8% tops. So... reform or crisis..
“If you supply weapons to somebody that is accused of acts of genocide, then you yourself become complicit in those acts as well” Retweet if you agree with @jeremycorbyn 👇
In the Israeli Knesset Today: “Meeting of the Lobby for the Renewal of Jewish Settlement in the Gaza Strip Topic: "The Gaza Riviera – From Vision to Reality" “ This isn't just some right-wing fantasy. They mean it. They're planning what comes after ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
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?
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.
There is no war in Gaza. It is an attempt to erase the Palestinian people from existence. It is a genocide. Starvation. Massacring civilians as they queue for food. Bombing hospitals, homes, and refugee camps. The international community must stop enabling this genocide, and…
While Israel has done this - openly, stating explicitly their intention to at every opportunity - Keir Starmer's Labour Party has continued to arm, train and support Israel, including by sending British military personnel to risk their lives for Israel after they attacked Iran.

They should be afraid. Accountability will come for every single one of them.
When you definitely haven’t committed war crimes…
Good - we need genocidal maniacs to be afraid -
When you definitely haven’t committed war crimes…
@davidlammy stated yesterday that a judicial review upheld the govt's decision not to enact a full arms embargo on Israel. But that's not the full story. The judicial review actually said that issuing an arms embargo is for the govt to decide, not the courts.
