What's galling about this is it won't change anything. Will journalists like Daniel Finkelstein retract their claims that Israel doesn't target children? Will the media include this testimony when it references the Israeli army's claim that it operates proportionately? Nope.
Charles Lister@Charles_Lister

Just now -- acclaimed British surgeon testifies to #UK Parliament, detailing how #IDF "quadcopters" would arrive at the scene of airstrikes in #Gaza & "pick-off" / "shoot" the injured, including children.

The Israeli gov't knowingly starved Palestinian civilians, USA gov't knew they were doing it, the Biden administration deliberately covered up this fact & lied about it. This is as big a scandal as imaginable. Yet it is likely to receive little traction in the mainstream media.
Brett Murphy@BrettMmurphy

Leaked docs: While Gaza starved, USAID and State's refugees bureau came to a legally explosive conclusion — Israel had deliberately prevented food & medicine from getting in But Blinken told congress the exact opposite, so the arms could keep flowing. propublica.org/article/gaza-p…

@SamKmuffin @DrFrancesRyan It's so telling that he reflexively views the ongoing massacre in Gaza as a Labour party factional issue. They can't help showing us what monsters they are.

I say this in my upcoming bit on The Guardian but this is really not the way for Starmer to respond to pro-Gaza hecklers. Tens of thousands of people have died. Children are being blown up. A dismissive little laugh comes across at best, smug and at worst, cruelly indifferent.
Owen Jones@owenjonesjourno

Someone heckles Keir Starmer about the mass slaughter of children in Gaza. Starmer laughs and suggests he got his pass from the 2019 Labour conference. Genuinely vile behaviour.

“There is no justification for the UK’s continued arms sales to Israel, yet somehow it continues.” Labour has allowed these illegal sales to continue, and is therefore complicit in the unfolding genocide in Gaza. middleeasteye.net/news/british-f…

@michaeljswalker Given the lower turnout, 20.4% of eligible voters voted for Starmer. In 2019, 21.6% for Corbyn.

Nikki Hailey in Israel scribbling "FINISH THEM"on the shells that the IDF is about to fire into Rafah in defiance of the International Court of Justice. Biden provided the shells, Republicans autograph them. The US political class is united in its complicity with this genocide.

I am fascinated by the WSJ's response to the ICC. They accuse the court of ignoring a "crucial distinction" between death squads & bomber pilots. In other words, if high-tech armies kill people from the skies, that's inherently morally different from shootings by non-state actors

For Rishi Sunak there is a drop of around 13 points but for Labour it is much more significant. Keir Starmer suffers a huge fall of 29 points among ethnic minorities since the 7th Oct attacks. According to these figures, Labour are at risk of losing a wide range of voters over Gaza, not just from the Muslim community. 5/6

A senior Israeli Govt Minister is being explicit. They want to occupy Gaza and expel people from their homes. There is nothing "voluntary" about turning people's homes to rubble and making their land uninhabitable, thereby forcing them to leave. It is called ethnic cleansing.
Middle East Eye@MiddleEastEye

Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel’s Minister of National Security, said during an interview with Israel’s Channel 12 on Wednesday that he believes Israel needs to “occupy Gaza and stay there” and that they would develop a “plan of encouragement” to make Palestinians leave.

The most repugnant thing about this is that @DavidLammy knows full well the truth of Mandela's politics, ideology & tactics, just as he knows full well why there are mass protests over Gaza but not Sudan or DRC. He is actively playing dumb to sidestep his own responsibilities

BREAKING: This brilliant speech yesterday by a Columbia professor on the cowardice of the university administration in calling in police to arrest students will be cited throughout history -– and will inspire generations of students for decades to come. Columbia still on lockdown two days later.⤵️

The usual everyone-has-fucked-it-except-me-and-my-monkey from Rafa here. But what happens when he encounters nationalism he approves of that isn’t only destructive, but massively murderous? Let’s find out x.com/flying_rodent/… theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

We begin with a long harrumph about the insane fash turn in right wing politics and muse on the total failure of Sensible Centrist politics to meaningfully resist it. About to get into the bit about how fortunate we are that Sensible Centrist politics have saved us from the left.
