My parents were murdered on October 7th, and if anyone is slapping us in the face, it's people like you, who for the past 20 years have failed to prevent violence and bloodshed in Israel-Palestine, whilst making inflammatory remarks. Your administration could stop the war…
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.
'Palestinian leaders Mahmoud Abbas and Yasser Arafat walked away from serious offers of statehood.' Not correct, offers from Israel highly conditional, issue of Jerusalem unresolved. Read my book #arafatthebiography smh.com.au/politics/feder…
A partner at a prominent law firm told me “AI is now doing work that used to be done by 1st to 3rd year associates. AI can generate a motion in an hour that might take an associate a week. And the work is better. Someone should tell the folks applying to law school right now.”
So, why didn't the Biden administration insist then on the implementation of a ceasefire, instead of letting this thing drag on to the point where where you and others in positions to influence policy are suffering buyers' remorse. Good Q, would've thought!
Even if this leads to meaningful change--still obviously TBD--the Israeli government's decision in March to break the ceasefire, blockade Gaza, and escalate militarily will prove to have been catastrophic. It made no real difference against Hamas, led to immeasurable additional…
Interesting intervention 👇
The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is unimaginably acute and devastatingly heartbreaking. Children and families are starving, and the entire population faces severe deprivation and unimaginable suffering. The evidence is overwhelming, with multiple aid agencies and countries…
So, Q becomes why is Australia not attending, or if is not foreshadowed? Can think of a few reasons, none of them plausible 😑
Next week’s High-level Conference on the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution is an important step toward sustainable peace. I commend co-chairs, France and Saudi Arabia, for their leadership and commitment to facilitate this event.
Is this a parody account 👇
Israel must allow aid in over land to end the starvation unfolding in Gaza. The situation is desperate. We are working with Jordan to get aid into Gaza. We are urgently accelerating efforts to evacuate children who need critical medical assistance to the UK for treatment.…
Hard to argue with this 👇
I am starting to see establishment goons, Davos whores, insecure high-income slaves (IHIS), high ranking members of the International Association of Name Droppers, mildly cognitively impaired social climbers, and slow-thinking media influencers bemoaning the situation in #Gaza.
It’s way too late, but the truth has a way of coming out. Forget the airdrops and scrap GHF — let the UN organizations resume their humanitarian delivery operations NOW to stop the ongoing starvation: nytimes.com/2025/07/26/wor…
"MSF reports tripling of severe malnutrition in under-5s at Gaza City clinic. Charity says number of people needing care for malnutrition has quadrupled since May and blames Israeli ‘policy of starvation’" theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…
NEW: Angela Rayner and Yvette Cooper understood to be among cabinet ministers who back immediate recognition of Palestinian statehood, joining Wes Streeting, Shabana Mahmood and Hilary Benn… theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
Leaders of France, UK and Germany sternest warning yet. End the war.
The time has come to end the war in Gaza. We – France, the United Kindom and Germany – urge all parties to bring an end to the conflict by reaching an immediate ceasefire:
Having reported terrible Ethiopian famine of 1984 let me tell you something. Once extreme malnutrition sets in among children it is very difficult to reverse. This is what has been visited on the children of Gaza by a cruel and inhumane regime @CrisisGroup crisisgroup.org/middle-east-no…
Q. Where are petitioners Australian parliament? That sound you can hear is ... silence 😑
221 MPs, from 9 parties, have sent a joint letter to the Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary urging them to recognise Palestine as a state now
Interviewed by Jeremy Bowen for the BBC.
Eyewitness testimony from an American Green Beret of what he described as 'war crimes' in the deliberate shooting of starving Palestinians by the IDF and poorly trained American goons. Say what you like but this is credible testimony. Watch 👇

“I never witnessed the level of brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population…in all the places I’ve been deployed, until I was in Gaza, at the hands of the IDF and US contractors”
Gaza situation weighs on Jake Sullivan 'every single day'. Should think so given Biden Administration's complicity Advisor @jakejsullivan and @davidgura discuss Sullivan’s time in the Biden White House and the challenges facing the Trump Administration. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Troubling @GuardianAus theguardian.com/australia-news…
If you're not detecting white hot rage in the UK electorate across the political spectrum with Mr Starmer's mealy mouth you're not paying attention 😑
The appalling scenes in Gaza are unrelenting. The UK will pull every lever we have to get food and lifesaving support to Palestinians, and we will evacuate children who need urgent medical assistance. This humanitarian catastrophe must end.
Shrewd piece, should be read on a duo that deserve each other theconversation.com/could-rupert-m… @ConversationEDU
