These signs have appeared near a military base in Fairford, where U.S. B-52H and B-1B warplanes have been regularly flying from, with the blessing of Keir Starmer, to bomb Iran.

"Bomb their children, not their infrastructure. Parents deserve to see their children die. It took us two years to do this in Gaza. We haven't done it in Lebanon yet." -Israeli academic Orit Perlov this is a summation of popular attitudes among god's chosen ghouls. you cannot hate them enough, and there are no adjectives terrible enough to describe Israeli society. the minority who exhibit a level of human conscience are a small enough percentage of the population as to be negligible.

The UK abstained on a UN resolution to recognise the transatlantic slave trade as the “gravest crime against humanity” despite overwhelming support from non-European countries. At the UN General Assembly vote on 25 March, 123 countries voted in favour of the resolution, whilst just three – the US, Israel and Argentina – voted against. The UK and several EU member states were amongst 52 that abstained. The resolution called for reparations to address historical injustices, which saw 12.5 million Africans abducted and sold as slaves between the 15th and 19th centuries. The Netherlands is the only European country to have ever formally apologised for its role in the slave trade. In an official statement, the UK said it recognised “the abhorrent nature of slavery and the transatlantic slave trade, which inflicted untold harm and misery on millions of people over many decades”. However, the government took issue with the legal wording of the resolution and argued that “we must not create a hierarchy of historical atrocities”. A Foreign Office spokesperson told the Telegraph: “We are committed to deepening respectful, long-term partnerships with African countries, rooted in mutual respect, that deliver real change for people’s lives. “The UK’s position on reparations is clear – we will not pay them.” According to the National Archives, Britain was the most dominant slave-trading nation between 1640 and 1807 and transported an estimated 3.1m Africans to the British colonies in the Americas and Caribbean.

We have always said we will not know the whole truth about Hillsborough until we know the truth about Orgreave. Same police force. Same tactics. Five years earlier. We are grateful to the Government for delivering on its manifesto promise. 🙏🏻 theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

Former CIA officer John Kiriakou stated that: “There are 10,000 documents related to the Kennedy assassination that will never be released [by Trump], because every single one points directly at Israel. JFK was actively trying to prevent Israel from acquiring nuclear technology, and they decided they had to take him out.”

Let’s say a member of the Muslim community harassed and abused journalists from the Jewish Chronicle in Whitechapel, and it turned out he was a serving police officer. I can’t begin to imagine the media’s outrage.

Adam Smith

“It very neatly describes the way liberals see the world and political struggle. Lots of people complain about the anti-climactic ending, but really i don't think it could any other way. I’d like to imagine that there's some alternate universe where Rowling actually believed in something and Harry was actually built up as the anti-Voldemort he was only hinted as being in the beginning of the books. Where he's opposes all the many injustices of the wizarding world and determines to change their frequently backwards, insular, contradictory society for the better, and forms his own faction antithetical to the Death Eaters and when he finally has his showdown with Voldy, Harry surpasses by adopting new methods, breaking the rules and embracing change and the progression of history. While Voldemort clings to an idyllic imaging of the past and the greatest extent of his dreams is to become the self-appointed god of an eternally stagnant Neverland, Harry has embraced the WANNA BUY SOME MAGIC? possibility of a shining future and so can overcome the self-imposed limits Voldemort could never cross, and Voldemort is ultimately defeated by this. But that would require a Harry that believed in something, and since Rowling is a liberal centrist Blairite that doesn't really believe in anything, Harry can't believe in anything. Harry lives in a world drought with conflict and injustice, a stratified class society, slavery of sentient magical creatures, the absurd charade the wizarding world puts up to enforce their own self-segregation, a corrupted and bureaucracy-choked government, rampant racism, so on and so forth. But Harry is little more than a passive observer for most of it, only the racism really bothers him (and then, really only racism against half-bloods), In fact, when Hermione stands up against the slavery of elves, she's treated as some kind of ridiculous Soapbox Sadie. For opposing chattel slavery. In the end, the biggest force for change is Voldemort and Harry and friends only ever fight for the preservation and reproduction of the status quo. The very height of Harry's dreams is to join the aurors, a sort of wizard FBl and the ultimate defenders of the wizarding status quo. Voldemort and the Death Eaters are the big instigators of change and Harry never quite gets to Voidys level. Harry doesnt even beat Voldemort, Voldemort accidentally kills himself because he violated some obscure technicality that causes one of his spells to bounce back at him. And this is really the struggle of liberals, they live in a world fraught with conflict, but aren't particularly bothered by any of it except those bit that threaten multicultural pluralism. They see change, and the force behind that change, as a wholly negative phenomenon. Even then, they can only act within the legal and ideological framework of their society. So, for instance, instead of organizing insurrectionary and disruptive activity against Trump and the far-nght, all they can do is bang their drum about what a racist bigot he is and hope they can catch him violating some technicality that will allow them to have him impeached or at least destroy his political clout. It wont work, it will never work, but that's the limit of liberalism just as it was the limit of Harry Potter.”

The legendary Liam Cunningham takes on his role in Palestine ’36, a story steeped in history, resistance, and humanity. Everyone I know who saw it left either in tears, newly radicalized, or questioning everything they thought they knew… you have to watch it.
