The Settlers, the doc I made for the BBC, is now available to stream in the US on BBC Select. It couldn’t be more timely with the announcement today that the Israeli govt has approved construction of 22 new settlements in the West Bank - which are illegal under international law.
Today small children in Gaza are dying of starvation.
Just a mile away hundreds of trucks sit full of food.
The IDF blocking them entering.
This is the face of the Israeli regime - evil beyond comprehension.
Yesterday Israeli soldiers shot and killed a 2 year old Palestinian girl in the West Bank.
If she was Israeli you’d see her picture and hear her name on every news station.
Her name was Laila al-Khatib and this is her…..
Israel has murdered over 3000 toddlers in the past 12 months, just like Laila their crime is just being Palestinian.
Two serious assaults on nurses in recent days, going to work and doing their job.
We are NOT you're punching bag, we do not go to work to care for people to help, to be seriously assaulted! This needs to stop! And people wonder why nurses leave!
Gearóid Ó Cairealláin, father of Móglái Bap passed away last night.
He was an Irish language revolutionary, community activist, loving father, husband and an inspiration to many.
We are heartbroken. 💔
Tonight's concert at the SSE arena will be the largest Irish language gig in the city's history.
Nothing would have made him prouder.
Tonight is for him.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
————————
Gearóid Ó Cairealláin, athair le Móglaí Bap, imithe ar shlí na fírinne aréir.
Ba Réabhlóidí teanga, gníomhaí pobail, athair grámhar, fear céile agus ionspioráid do chuid mhór daoine é.
Tá muid croíbhriste. 💔
Anocht ag Ionad SSE, beidh an cheolchoirm is mó Gaeilge riamh i stair na cathrach ann.
Níl rud ar bith eile a chuirfeadh an oiread céanna bróid air ná seo.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
Will you stand by? Or Step Up?

Today Israel will behead more children.
Today Israel will murder more women.
Today Israel will ignore dozens of international laws.
Today Israel will claim it is the victim as its genocide continues.
Today the US, Britain and most of Europe will continue to say nothing.
FUCK ISRAEL
BREAKING:
Happening now in Yemen.
An absolutely IMMENSE pro-Palestine protest is taking place in the streets of Sanaa.
Bombed by US and UK warplanes just last night, yet here they are in their MILLIONS for the 33rd consecutive week, mobilizing for Gaza.
🇾🇪 🇵🇸
“Israel burned men, women and children alive. And the world stands by.”
“It’s unbelievable the genocide that is happening. A child with no head! And Israel says it’s a mistake.”
“I hope that Netanyahu burns in hell!”
—Irish politician Thomas Gould 🔥
Imagine being a mother and signing a bomb that will be used to kill babies, toddlers, and children.
Imagine writing the words "Finish Them" on this bomb.
You're the worst of humanity @NikkiHaley.
Outside Dáil Éireann (The Irish Parliament) today the Palestinian flag was flown by the Irish government.
We know colonial oppression, we know brutal occupation, and we stand with Palestine 🇮🇪🤝🇵🇸
In Gaza there are now hundreds of young children with horrific injuries whose entire families have been murdered.
No home.
No relatives.
No healthcare.
Now starving.
Their “crime” was to be born Palestinian.
And all inflicted by Israel with the backing of the US and Britain.
