It is the preoccupation with possessions, more than anything else, that prevents us from living freely and nobly.

I feel your pain. I was once feted by the BBC as an authority on crime and violence. BBC News, The Long View, Moral Maze etc. A producer told me I was the 'next public intellectual'. In 2009 I signed a BDS petition as a protest against Israel. Haven't heard from them since.

But Nick you don’t “interview those who use the word genocide”. I’m one of the most prominent British genocide scholars and I called Israel’s genocide in October 2023. I’ve had a lot of international media attention but my BBC total in 30 months is one interview on Radio Ulster.

BREAKING: Hamas tortured a one-year-old, burning his leg with a cigarette and inserting a nail into his leg to pressure his father to make confessions... UPDATE: I'm being told it was actually IDF soldiers who did this to a boy. Never mind, forget I said anything. It's fine...

"One year has passed since eight of our Palestine Red Crescent teams in Gaza were killed while saving lives. A full year without accountability. We continue to demand justice for our colleagues.

Football legend Gary Lineker endorsed a call demanding that Israel be suspended from international football until it ends its grave violations of international law, particularly its apartheid rule, and the crime of genocide in Gaza.

French judge Nicolas Gouyou, who issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu at the ICC: • Visa and Mastercard have blocked all my cards • I cannot make any purchases • I am a judge, yet treated like a criminal • Judges, lawyers, and politicians are being intimidated • A colleague told me my name won’t be removed from the blacklist until Trump’s term ends • Despite intervention by the French president, U.S. authorities have not responded

@IRAN_urgent_24 I’d ask. How long can Iran survive without electricity and 800 percent inflation

🚨 BREAKING: Iranian professor Mohammad Marandi in a TV interview: ▪️ Anchor: “For how long can Iran close the Strait of Hormuz?” ▪️ Marandi: “Forever.” ▪️ Anchor: “But that would also harm your economy.” ▪️ Marandi: “For us, it is a struggle for survival. For you, it is a battle to keep the Epstein class in power.”

This means that a verified account with a paid partnership wants to kidnap me, torture me, and murder me. @elonmusk and his employees at @X refuse to remove this, so it’s clear that they support such a terror operation. This isn’t surprising - after all, they support genocide.

@JillWitherjay17 @lowles_nick They will be too busy evacuating to do anything. Try living in eg. Dubai without fresh water or air-conditioning for more than about 24 hours. It's game over.

In a little under 26 hours, we will find out if Trump carries through with his threat to blow up Iran's power stations. If he does, then Iran have announced that they will take out the power, water sanitation and energy infratstructure of six Gulf states. The global economy will go into freefall and we could be moving towards a nuclear strike by the US or Israel. These are incredibly dangerous times

@flying_rodent It has all the signs of Europe in the summer of 2014. No one had a fucking clue what was coming down the tracks.

It is remarkable but yes: the theme of the era is “let’s keep pushing it and pushing it until we break it, and then ???”

Apropos of nothing, it took about a month after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand on June 28, 1914, for a cascade of escalations to pull all major powers into a global conflict. No one intended it to happen. And on June 27th, no one had a clue it would happen.

Professor Marandi drops a brilliant analogy exposing the absolute hypocrisy of "neutral" countries hosting US bases. Imagine China firing missiles at the US from Canada, and Canada claiming neutrality. It's an insult to our intelligence.
