‘The path to genocide was not built accidentally. It was paved by decades of intentional dehumanisation and supremacist indoctrination’ - read Marwan Bashara’s essential and brilliant book.

Except from intro to Twelve Days that Shook the Middle East …. ‘At the Madrid conference, Benjamin Netanyahu, then deputy foreign minister and rising star of the Israeli right, was the spokesperson for the Israeli delegation. He was quickly overshadowed by Hanan Ashrawi, a literature professor who was an articulate spokesperson for the Palestinians. Netanyahu’s polished but hostile sound bites failed to win over the global media gathered in Madrid; the sincerity of Ashrawi resonated with them deeply.’

‘A country that committed genocide against Palestinian Arabs cannot endure peacefully in a predominantly Arab region. If Israel is to survive it needs to de-Zionise itself’ Marwan Bishara - from his essential new book ‘Twelve Days that Shook the Middle East.’

No one has seen or heard from my father since August, when he explicitly said that he was being tortured and that the regime was trying to kill him like Egypt’s government did Morsi. The UN Special Rapporteur on torture has repeatedly stated that his treatment amounts to torture. Pakistan’s fascist regime, led by military dictator Asim Munir, continue to ignore the Supreme Court order from August for my father to be assessed and treated at the private Shifa International Hospital, as well as for regular access to family visits and access to his lawyers. It is clear that they are trying to kill him as he is by far the most popular political figure in the country, and they fear him. If the worst happens, no one should make any mistake who is responsible. It is Asim Munir with the approval of the illegitimate Pakistani government. Every government that continues to legitimise this regime will be complicit in this and the resulting chaos and destabilisation it causes in the region. No state that is engaging in friendly relations with this fascist Pakistani regime can truly claim to uphold the values of democracy or human rights.

Settler colonialism has long-established frameworks of escalating oppression: ethnic cleansing, apartheid and genocide. It's a well-documented pattern, and Israel has ticked every one of the boxes. Yet its apologists always find a reason to tell us Israel's crimes are different

Y por si quedaba alguna duda de lo que significa un Millwall vs West Ham…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
El vídeo no es de un Millwall vs West Ham sino del Atherstone Ball Game 2023, un tradicional juego masivo inglés. x.com/Urban_Pictures… walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/a… metro.co.uk/2023/02/21/thi…

Doncaster, late August anti-immigrant ralliers interrupted by church bells. 15 of them stormed nearby church, accused the vicar of trying to drown them out. “You’re supposed to be a Christian preacher,” said one. “Saturday is bell practice” he replied. Patrick Cockburn I paper

أقوى بيان عن غزة على لسان الرئيس الفرنسي الأسبق دوفيلبان: "لم تعد لنا قيمة على الساحة الدولية، غزة أكبر فضيحة تاريخية، لا أجرؤ حتى مثيل لها، يجب أن أبحث لأحصل على أرقام الوفيات الحقيقية في غزة لأن الإعلام لم يعد يتحدث، هذه فضيحة وليست حربًا، نحن تائهون وسندفع الثمن".

Imagine if American TV interviewers would do interviews like this one from @vicderbyshire
Humiliating car crash interview with Conservative Mark Harper who is now somehow in the House of Lords. Victoria Derbyshire asks him 10 times where he would house asylum seekers, he obfuscates shamelessly. My commentary at the end.

We've listened to these people call us Jew haters for three years because we opposed Israel's mass slaughter of children in Gaza. Now they claim the moral high ground by denouncing Israel's ethnic cleansing of the West Bank. Marr's right to do so – but he's an utter charlatan.
‘Anyone who tells me “God gave me this land and told me to do this violent act”, I can’t have a conversation with.’   @AndrewMarr9 'has no time for Hamas or Islamism', but says the idea of ‘allowing the Palestinians to be wiped out is intolerable'

CNN will never show you this : An Israeli settler pointing a gun at a Palestinian farmer. "This land is mine now. Get out. Never come back" The farmer's family worked that land for generations. The settler flew in from Eastern Europe.

If anyone on the left talked about Jews and Israel the way Melanie Phillips talks about Palestinians and Palestine, they would be investigated by the police for hate speech and would never see the inside of a television or radio studio ever again.

Tzipi Livni, ancienne ministre et ancienne responsable du Mossad, s'exprime : «Netanyahou est en train de désintégrer l'État d'Israël» «Un État souverain possède un territoire, une loi pour tous et le monopole des armes. Israël n’a pas de frontières reconnues, il n’y a plus de loi unique ni de justice pour tous, mais un système de droit et de justice religieux parallèle au droit étatique, et des milices armées et violentes déclenchent des émeutes à leur guise. Le gouvernement israélien est en train de désintégrer l’État d’Israël». #Netanyahou #Israël #TzipiLivni reseauinternational.net/tzip…
