David Hamilton #IstandwithIsrael 🇮🇱🌹

I have come to the conclusion that Twitter is the final proof that multiple universes exist and it is the gateway between those universes. It is the only explanation for a vast number of tweets and the only way those tweets make any sense Only question is which one am I in?🙃

@NickCohen4 Simplistic at best

If Starmer had followed Carney and Meloni by taking on Trump, he could have mobilised British patriotism and isolated Farage and other MAGA bootlickers. Let's hope that Burnham will stand up to the thug

BREAKING: Ilana Gritzewsky, who was held hostage by Hamas, just took the floor at the United Nations to confront Reem Alsalem, the UN rapporteur on violence against women. Her dramatic testimony: Special Rapporteur, your report speaks about violence against women. Why is there no mention of Hamas? On October 7, terrorists stormed our Kibbutz — murdering, kidnapping, and burning. I was beaten and mutilated before blacking out. I woke up half naked with seven terrorists standing over me, not knowing what happened to me in those lost moments. I went through days of pain and horror in captivity, and even now the feeling of being powerless and violated still lingers. I came back with a broken hip, a broken jaw and a shattered soul. People see my face and think I’m free. But freedom is not a switch. Trauma doesn’t vanish once you are released. Now, every air-raid siren, and every rocket from Iran, throws me back into that hell. On October 7, and in captivity, Jewish women were raped, abused, and humiliated. And you, Special Rapporteur, you chose silence and denial. Ms. Alsalem, you said there was no evidence of sexual violence on October 7. I am standing here today — not as a report, not as a statistic. I am a woman who survived. I am the living proof of sexual violence by Hamas. When I and other Israeli women begged not to be raped, why were you silent? Please look at me. Do you believe us now? Will you apologize?

@s_m_marandi Where was this independent UN enquiry. They are quoting from another garbage report by UNHRC

Reuters finally tells the truth. The world must be coming to an end.

@AdnanHussainMP Why not. The charge of genocide is complete garbage, as are the charges of apartheid, ethnic cleansing and colonialism There is apartheid in the PA controlled areas if the West Bank and the Hamas areas of Gaza where Jews are excluded

We cannot allow the charge of genocide in Gaza to be obscured by accusations of antisemitism. Antisemitism is hatred of Jewish people; criticism of Israel is criticism of a state with military and political apparatus capable of committing genocide. The two must not be conflated.

@SheilaColeman96 @KimJohnsonMP @MiddleEastEye What genocide?

@KimJohnsonMP @MiddleEastEye “Moral clarity”? Starmer didn’t lack clarity. He clearly knew what he was doing in respect of Palestine. He just lacked morals. Burnham hasn’t said too much on the genocide so far. Either way genocide shouldn’t be used as political leverage.

"Burnham needs to be prepared to say clearly what Starmer would not: that a genocide is ongoing and that Labour’s refusal to speak honestly and act decisively on about it has come at a huge political cost." Read my full comment for @MiddleEastEye here 👇 middleeasteye.net/news/how-andy-…

@KimJohnsonMP @MiddleEastEye But that would be totally wrong. There is no genocide in Gaza

@A48er @RmSalih As there is no genocide that was a foolish thing to do

@hamild @RmSalih I already accepted my fate in hell for being complicit in genocide.

The great Israel Parliamentary debate stitch up I've just totaled up the amount of time each side had to speak during the parliamentary debate yesterday on Israeli influence over UK politics. The pro-Israel side had 1 hour and 9 minutes to put forward their pro-Israel views. The anti-Israel side had 15 minutes only to put forward their anti-Israel views. So in effect, the pro-Israel side had 82% of the speaking time during the debate, and the anti-Israel side had 18% speaking time. This wasn't a debate, it was a forum for Israeli hasbara and propaganda. And it proves exactly why 117,000 people signed a petition questioning Israel's influence over UK politicians.

@uninvhrc @UN Pure projection

#Israeli authorities & security forces have deliberately targeted #Palestinian children resulting in #genocide, crimes against humanity & war crimes, the @UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory & Israel says in new report. #HRC62 ➡️ bit.ly/4w0AxbY

I asked Liam Cunningham for evidence supporting his claim that Israel is committing genocide under the legal definition of the term. Not insults. Not slogans. Not appeals to authority. Evidence. His response was "fuck off" followed by a block. Those with arguments use them. Those without often use insults and then run from the discussion.

The BBC's David Gritten and Stephanie Hegarty just wrote a piece about Israel committing "genocide". While the @BBCNews article opens with a claim it is based on a "A UN commission of inquiry" it is actually nothing more than another kangaroo court set up by the rancid "United Nations Human Rights Council". Here's the thing. There is not a serious journalist, academic or foreign policy expert alive who is unaware of the UNHRC's reputation. This is an organisation that has already been abolished once and replaced, only for many of the same problems to re-emerge. Its record of obsession with demonising on Israel, combined with its repeated election of authoritarian regimes to its 47-member membership, has destroyed its credibility as an impartial judge of anything. Its history of anti-Israel bias is beyond dispute. It is a matter of public record. So how is it possible that two BBC journalists write an article suggesting Israel is committing genocide without mentioning any of this. It is inexcusable. It is substandard. It is activist journalism masquerading as reporting. A GCSE student who submitted work of this quality would be told they had failed to address the reliability of their source material. I do not believe this type of shoddy, amateur, fourth-rate antireporting should ever pass without comment - let alone something produced by the British State Broadcaster. So I am publicly calling out both David Gritten and Stephanie Hegarty for trying to sanitise and whitewash a rancid despot ridden activist body and pretend it actually has some impartial moral standing. We all deserve better. These two are either galactically stupid - or the worst type of journalists. Either way - your license fee money should not be paying their salaries.

@thisisyourparty Focus on the issues of where? What genocide?

Labour MPs falling over themselves pretending they’ve always been Andy Burnham’s best friend. Even Starmer ally Steve Reed is all smiles We prefer to focus on the issues Sign our petition calling on Burnham to back a public inquiry into British complicity in the Gaza genocide👇🏾

@karl_fh Other than invasion of Gaza nothing the UK does will affect the lives of a single Palestinian. They are oppressed by the terrorists Hamas, much like the occupation of Lebanon by Hezbollah

Four in five voters who deserted Labour went to centre or centre-left parties. They overwhelmingly oppose Labour’s stance on Gaza and want the government to take action against Israel. Any account of Starmer’s downfall that ignores this should not be taken seriously.

@pacificcare1 @ShockatAdam Pity none of his questions further the aims of the UK or his constituents but concentrate solely on attacking Israel

@ShockatAdam The MP who asks the most questions in the HoC, Spends the most time in the HoC, Dedicates his 24/7 to his nation, The MP who claims the least expenses. The MP who single-handedly changes the whole governments' views by his educational and eloquent style of speech. Next UK PM.

The international rule-based order is one we, as a nation, built to prevent the horrors of World War II from ever repeating themselves. We now have British ministers threatening the heads of these sacred institutions. Where does this leave world peace and justice?

@ShockatAdam The ICC is not a ‘sacred institution’ nor is the UN. Both have been corrupted by the politics of hate emanating from the Palestinian issue

@A48er @RmSalih They don’t - they are just able to realise the actual truth and reject the ridiculous claims of genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation and oppression and baby killing

@RmSalih Interesting data. I love the fact people that willingly and knowingly support genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation and opression as well as baby killing - type posts that just throw insults but never actually engage your points. well humanity pooped on that method speak up

@RmSalih The only real question is why, yet another debate on Israel/Palestine was taking place in parliament? Perhaps the uncomfortable reality for the pro Palestinian side is that the larger majority of speakers don’t agree with the views of the Pro Palestinian lobby

@KemiBadenoch WGAF what you think on this

Keir Starmer has gone because he confused winning a general election with having an agenda for government. My mission to Get Britain Working is different. I know what needs to change. More importantly, I know how to do it and I have taken the time to do the work so that it actually happens. Read more in @TheSun thesun.co.uk/news/39503823/…

@Peston The country will

Will Andy Burnham regret ousting Keir Starmer? open.substack.com/pub/peston/p/w…

@AdnanHussainMP No it was not. Corbyn failed at two elections and dragged the party into an EHRC investigation

You're a good man, Jeremy, and the British people know it. Letting you go was one of the Labour Party's biggest mistakes.

@andrewpakes_ This is not putting the country first and a coronation certainly is not in the interests of Labour or the country

My thoughts on yesterday and what comes next.
