Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders? forward.com/opinion/757549…
🚨IDF gunboats are kidnapping any starved & heatstroked Gazans that dare touch the sea to catch fish or cool off from the 95° F (35° C) weather & 77-90% humidity. Israel recently imposed a total ban on the sea in Gaza & warned it'd murder or kidnap anyone who dares go in!…
Israel and the Trump administration are carrying out their final solution in Gaza mondoweiss.net/2025/07/israel…
But really - is there a more militarised country on earth?
A month ago, the "Manufacturers Association of Israel" released an ad calling Israelis to buy Israeli products. Inadvertently, they made the ultimate ad for BDS - making sure everyone who watches it knows: buying Israeli products is supporting genocide.

There’ll be much criticism of Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultanas announcement today, but rest assured, it’s only because all the worst people are worried about how popular Corbyns policies were in 2017. They’re definitely rattled.

Just a reminder, Oslo was the signing of the annexation.
Breaking: the Zionist Knesset of Israel votes with a majority of 71 MKs in favour of Annexing the occupied West Bank (defacto annexed). The Settler-Colonial society is hungry for expansion as it annihilates entire Palestinian communities in the West Bank, alongside #GazaGenocide
Apparently this boat ended up leaving Syros with its 150 passengers who never disembarked. Yes, it is good to let people know there are consequences for genocide. If states won’t take action, the people can and should.
BREAKING: Hundreds of Israelis stranded aboard Mano Maritime cruise ship at the port of Syros, Greece, after pro-Palestinian protesters blocked their disembarkation. Greek ppl stand with Palestine, not Israel.
I am ashamed @DeptJusticeIRL officials denied this talented young man a visa for a chance to have a temporary respite from a violent, illegal occupation. As ever, the "leaders" in #Ireland are out of step with ordinary Irish people. They've forgotten our own history. 🇮🇪❤️🇵🇸
A grotesque situation, whereby Tories are urging the "Labour" government to get off its stupid ar$e and do something about Israel's crimes!
Extraordinary scenes in the Commons tonight as Tory MP @kitmalthouse correctly accuses UK foreign secretary David Lammy of complicity in Israel’s crimes and warns him that he could end up in The Hague

Being this stupid won’t be a legitimate defense at The Hague
