United States Senator Tom Cotton: “Why should Israel be responsible for providing aid to Gaza? Israel is the victim. We did not provide aid to Germany and Japan in World War II." Moral clarity right there.

Theirin lies the tragedy. Created by the Arabs as an idea to be a thorn in the side of Israel, all it has done is create a permanent victim-class of sub-Arabs. At the same time Israel has become stronger and more successful while Arab nations have stagnated (unless they have oil).

There’s a lot of hatred towards Israel right now, and I think a lot of people are looking at this situation with absolutely no historical perspective. No country on Earth would tolerate what Israel has lived with since 1948. We’re talking about a country that was invaded the moment it was created. Multiple wars. Suicide bombings. Bus bombings. Rockets fired into civilian neighborhoods. Children growing up with bomb shelters as a normal part of life. Sirens going off and people having seconds to run for cover. Hostages taken. Civilians massacred. And people expect them to just sit there and do nothing? Americans talk big about freedom and security, but the truth is Americans could not live like that for 70+ years. If rockets were being fired into Texas or California for decades, if terrorists crossed the border and killed 1,000 Americans in one day, the response would be overwhelming and it would not even be debated. It would be finished quickly and decisively. But when Israel responds, suddenly the world holds them to a completely different standard than every other country on Earth. Another thing people don’t want to talk about is history. The Jewish connection to that land is not something that started in 1948. It goes back thousands of years. Archaeology, recorded history, ancient kingdoms, temples, language, culture - all tied to that land long before most modern countries even existed. Meanwhile countries like America, Australia, Canada - we can’t even make that same historical claim to the land in the same way. So if we’re going to be honest and fair, we have to be consistent. Either every country has the right to defend its citizens and exist in security, or they don’t. But singling out one country in the world and expecting them to live under constant attack, constant terrorism, constant threats of destruction, and then condemning them every time they respond is not fairness. That’s politics.

Good Morning Britain
Steph Richards is a trans woman who works for the charity Endometriosis South Coast as their parliamentary engagement officer which is a voluntary role, but in the last week, she has seen a tsunami of hate directed her way. Some women online have called her appointment deeply offensive, but Steph says this is just another excuse for transphobia. Steph talks to @PaulBrandITV and @kategarraway

@strangem8 @aj_inapi His post is pretty much the exact opposite of that. The ‘Palestinian’ cause is pretty much a side show in the wider context.

@aj_inapi So your argument, if I've understood it correctly is: "Poor Israel" don't think about the wider context, even 6month before my start date, because "whataboutism"

Kusi Asare on his loan move 👇 “We have some experienced strikers who have been in the Premier League for many years, so it is difficult to come in and take a place. But he sees that I am developing and when there is something I am missing, he tells me. I just try to work on it and I know that playing time will come with time,” he said. “I know they can buy me, but I haven’t thought much about it. I like it over there, it’s a good environment for me but it’s ultimately up to the club. “Maybe it would have been good for my career to go down a step, so I can take a starting spot. But it depends on what the clubs have planned for me. We’ll see what the future holds,” he added. ⚫⚪#FFC

@ThePosieParker There can’t be any economics teachers among that lot (or maybe they are the ones who remained seated).
