Well, I’d anticipate his resignation as deputy leader of his party imminently. That’s how this works right? I know he’d never tolerate two tier justice.

Yes. Palestine Action US changed it's name to 'Unity of Fields' Unity of Fields is a term used by Palestinian terror organisations in the Middle East, including Hamas and Hezbollah. Palestine Action is therefore a wing of the Palestinian terror axis. Sources: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_of_… palestine-studies.org/en/node/1654679

Carlson: "it is a crime for which you can be arrested.. criticising Israel. You say you're for Palestine Action, you can be arrested.." Derbyshire: "That is not true.." "What is not true about that?" "Palestine Action is a proscribed group. It is banned" "Why is it banned?"

@Donna_Rachel_ @SaulStaniforth Maybe your confusing it with the Israeli government and Netanyahu in particular....

@SaulStaniforth Because it's a terrorist organization with strong links to Hamas.

@sappholives83 A stupendous post! Brava!

An independent review of 72 separate studies found that an average of 29% of men surveyed admitted to having committed sexual assault, and 6% admitted to having committed at least one rape. When they changed the wording from “have you committed rape” to “have you forced a woman to have sex with you,” that last number jumped up to 12%. And these were just the men who were willing to admit their crimes to total strangers. Women and girls live with the threat of rape and sexual assault hanging over our heads like the sword of Damocles from the moment we draw our first breath until our bodies are so decomposed that sexual violation is no longer physically possible. There is no such thing as a female human being who is so old, so young, so ugly, so fat, so dirty, so smelly, so physically or mentally disabled, so mentally ill, so comatose, or so dead that no man will rape her. Homeless women experience especially high levels of sexual violence — but no woman or girl is ever immune. The youngest victim of sexual assault of whom I am aware was abused on video even before her umbilical cord was cut. The youngest rape victim - and I do mean rape - that I’m aware of was two hours old. The oldest was 93. In my personal experience, I’ve worked with rape victims who were as young as 3 months old, and the oldest victim I’ve personally seen was 89. I didn’t work with her, though — she died of shock and blood loss on her own kitchen floor after her male assailant shoved two and a half feet of mop handle into her vagina three times, the last time so savagely that you could see the end of it protruding as a lump under her skin about two inches below her sternum. 25% of US women will report a rape at some point. 63% of rape goes unreported, and 90% of rape victims are women. You do the math. And that’s in the US, where women and girls aren’t legally able to be sold into marriage against our will. A girl forced into marriage may be raped tens of thousands of times over the course of her life, and none of it is ever reported, or included in the already horrific statistics on the sexual abuse of women and girls — the latter of whom make up 82% of abused children, even though preferential pedophiles (men who are only interested in children) usually go for boys. Girls are the favored target of opportunistic offenders, men who sexually abuse children simply because they can. In other words, the overwhelming majority of child predators are men who abuse little girls for no other reason than the fact that they are both female and vulnerable. They’re not abused specifically because they are children, but because they are girls. Now imagine what it’s like to grow up with this knowledge: to have to be constantly on your guard around half the population from childhood on. To live side by side with the beings most likely to violate and murder you — and who, when you try to discuss the subject, get angry, accuse you of either not trusting good men or being too trusting of the bad ones, and do everything in their power to pin the blame for their behavior squarely on you. Every woman knows multiple rape survivors, if she’s not one herself — and so does every man. More to the point, perhaps, is that every man also knows men who sexually assault women - whether or not he is aware of their behavior, or will admit to it if he is. Furthermore, I have never discussed sexual assault/male violence with a woman who didn’t turn out to have a story of her own. Not even once, not in 42 years. And you know what’s really gross? The fact that I can tell you these things, and your first concern is automatically whether or not I prefaced my statement with a disclaimer that allows you to tell yourself that it’s not your problem.

@sappholives83 What a fun game!

Rearranging everything in my fridge so I can fit the iced tea pitcher in is like playing a real-world version of Tetris where instead of stacking bricks up to the ceiling, failure means that a container full of liquid will fall on the next person who opens the fridge door. What kind of liquid is up for grabs: there’s fresh-brewed tea, almond milk, regular milk, and chocolate milk from a local dairy farm that’s the best I’ve ever had. (It costs $9/gallon, but you can get $3 back if you return the glass container it comes in. And yes, as an occasional treat, it’s worth every penny.) There’s also this noxious drink my brother claims is tea, but which has some kind of artificial sweetener in it that has transformed it into an Abomination. Making fake sweet tea below the Mason Dixon line is technically a capital offense, but I let it slide because he’s family.

@STILLTish @mishtal @BBCNews I've had plenty to say about the despotic Iranian regime. As for the others, no. Do you comment on every atrocity, everywhere? Why do you expect me to? I have been following the Palestine/Israel conflict for 47 years & have visited the West Bank & Gaza twice in that time.

@Sadiq_Filastin @mishtal @BBCNews Anything to say about the murder of Christians in Nigeria? The still missing Yazidi women? The estimated 50,000 of its own citizens, by the despotic Iranian regime who are hanging children?

Dear @bbcnews - I am so tired of your anti-U.S. framing. In your latest updates, Lyse Doucet apparently knows what the U.S. "thinks". Her narrative? Iran strong, U.S. bad & weak. Can you just stop shoving your anti-western, pro-Islamist narratives down our throats. Enough!

The aftermath of an I$raeli strike on Qana, Lebanon where Jesus performed his first miracle turning water into wine Locals are calling it a massacre

Today, for the third time in my mother's life and for the second in my own life, we lost a home due to it being bombed by the Israeli army. This home was in a building constructed by my uncle, the Lebanese historian Ahmad Beydoun, after my family was able to return to our ancestral hometown, Bint Jbeil, in the year 2000 when Israel ended its decades-long occupation there, during which they destroyed my mother's childhood home. In 2006, they would destroy both her and my home in Beirut, rendering us both temporarily homeless. Uncle Ahmad's building was a costly joint effort financed by himself as well as my mother and his other siblings. Each owned an apartment in the building, which also housed medical practices, a baby toys shop (owned and run by my cousin Jamal) and a branch for Bank Audi. Upon hearing this news, Uncle Ahmad wrote: "in our hearts, this is the least of our losses." We can all only be thankful that our family is unharmed: when I told this story to a distant cousin, she replied that her friend had lost both her mother and father in Israel's bombing of Beirut two days ago, which killed more than 300 civilians in the space of ten minutes. For reasons that are difficult to understand, the Israeli army posted a video of their crime, which I share here.

🇪🇸 Spain Benjamin Netanyahu: “Spain has defamed Israeli soldiers, the most moral army in the world. I have ordered Spain to be excluded from the military coordination center in Kiryat Gat.” Spanish response – Minister Sira Rego: “We are not defaming you; we are describing you as you are.” “You are a system of extermination and crime, and you will all stand before the International Criminal Court.”

@salltweets @StoicSchism @boswelltoday Good! That gives me hope. 💪🏻👏🏻🤞🏻

@StoicSchism @boswelltoday I’m pretty optimistic.

Eight months into Tickle v Giggle. If the answer were convenient, it would already be written. The problem is that the truthful one isn’t.

This utter loser is complaining because he’s ranked #513 in the men’s division, and is no longer allowed to cheat by competing against women. Guess he just needs to try a little harder lmaooooo. 🤷‍♀️

Written in 2014. But still applicable today.

@underhandrea @DefiantLs Not keen on the siimpering interviewer either.. 😡

@Sadiq_Filastin @DefiantLs He's absolutely revolting

Man who thinks he’s a woman is now saying women who experienced sexual assault and abuse from men have no right to say they feel uncomfortable seeing a man in women’s spaces. “The feminine penis is different than the masculine penis”

@sahouraxo Phosphate rock mined in Idaho. Processed into white phosphorus in St. Louis. Filled into shells at Pine Bluff Arsenal, Arkansas. Signed off by Trump 10 days before the war started. Dropped on Lebanese civilians. Made in America. Every step of it.

BREAKING: Israel is dropping white phosphorus bombs on civilian areas in Al-Tiri, South Lebanon. These are internationally banned munitions, and Israel is using them against civilians.

23 years ago today in Gaza, British photographer Tom Hurndall was shot in the head by an Israeli sniper while trying to protect Palestinian children. Humanity will never forget him
