This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opi…


Palantir’s co-founder is upset with this important reporting from @nytimes’ @NickKristof which is one more reason why you should definitely read it

There is nothing that makes Palestinians an indigenous nation. They don't have a language, a religion, or a culture of their own. They are just mixed race colonists on stolen land appropriating an ancient name that has nothing to do with them.

Communism is the utopian delusion of the proletariat. Libertarianism is the utopian delusion of the bourgeoisie.

The number of victims and witnesses who have come forward testifying that dogs are used to sexually assault Palestinians in detention is far too numerous to be written off. There are some abuses Israel carries out that are so barbaric and unconscionable that they make the person who repeats what they did sound crazy. This is one of them, and it’s now thoroughly documented.

Majid Freeman walks out of court an innocent man after the jury failed to reach a verdict on his case. Majid repeatedly asserted his support for the resistance and the Palestinian’s right to resist. Despite the states best efforts members of the jury were able to see through the politicised nature of this trial. A 4 week retrial has now been ordered for September 2027! The state threw everything it had at Majid Freeman and failed to secure a conviction. Upon hearing the decision, Majid said: “I welcome the opportunity of a retrial, because it means the evidence of what Israel has done to Gaza, the brutality, the systematic destruction of an entire people, will once again be placed before a jury of the British public. Let them see it again. Let the world be reminded again.” Stand with Majid. whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va…

Zack Polanski and his partner called their narrowboat their “amazing home” for three years. He registered to vote there. If it was his main residence, council tax was due. None was paid. His team says he stayed there only “occasionally” - if true, there's a very big problem.

Never forget when the CEO of TKO Ari Emanuel threw down his headphones & stormed out as Belal won the UFC title David Ellison primed to take control of Paramount. Khamzat vs Strickland was 100% fishy. The UFC has the Gov in their pocket so it’ll get swept under the rug

Anti-Zionism is not Left or Right. Not socialist or capitalist. The national liberation struggle of the indigenous Palestinians is against the Jewish supremacist system of Zionism. For land. For sovereignty. Anti-Zionism is therefore a moral position. AZM. London. 25 April.
