🇬🇧To the UK government: the more people you arrest to shamefully cover up Israel's genocide the more decent people will stand up against you in the name of human rights.
In the end, we will all make sure that the leaders who are complicit with Israel genocide will face justice.

Never would I have imagined seeing European leaders turn against their own citizens-crushing protest, free journalism, academic freedom-all to avoid holding a genocidal state to account.
Yet History rarely announces itself as barbarism; it often arrives disguised as civilization.
This is critical work needed to defend the human rights of Europeans first and foremost, in Europe, not just Palestine.
Palestine continues to expose the fragility of the so called liberal democracies.
I media mainstream e la politica di palazzo non parlano del genocidio in corso a Gaza così come, al tempo del genocidio nazifascista, i loro omologhi preferivano ignorare i crimini in corso.
Mostri d'indifferenza e ipocrisia cangianti ma immarcescibili.
Egypt can say what it wants but purchasing $35bn of gas from Israel violates int'l law, including the ICJ advisory opinion of 2024, and is, honestly, an incredible sign of support to Israel during the genocide of the Palestinians.
States must stop placing profits above humanity.
Thank you Secretary General.
We also need to end the pretense that the Gaza Inferno is 'just' a humanitarian crisis, the result of a natural catastrophe.
Without facing the institutionalised violence and impunity, in Israel and beyond, nothing will stay as is.
Not even the UN.
From the Book of Contradictions:
🇮🇪GAA, Irish largest sporting org. (once part of the resistance to British occupation), decided to maintain ties with @Allianz, despite the latter's dealings with Apartheid Israel.

The GAA has opted to maintain its relationship with Allianz despite calls from a number of county boards to end its association with the insurance ...
🇬🇧 Perhaps the UK gov has not enough on its conscience that can let Anti-Genocide activists die??
I trust the UK people will appreciate that this is not about Palestine anymore: it is about their own freedoms.
Full solidarity to PalestineAction hunger strikers and their families.
The genocide is still ongoing. I could have never imagined writing hundreds of pages and giving hundreds of interviews on such a crime and still seeing it ravaging over two years on.
Palestinians in Gaza are literally left ALONE, FREEZING and STARVING in the winter storm.
I keep asking how we became such monsters, uncapable of stopping this nightmare.
For them, for us, for whatever remains of the people in whose name this genocide is being committed.
