@Eve_Barlow Spoiler: no.

Last night the IRGC launched a ballistic missile at a US base in Diego Garcia. In English, Iran doesn’t give a fuck what it targets and has the capacity to hit a London or Paris or Berlin or Madrid or Rome. And Israel warned the world. Will Europe get its head out of its ass any time soon?

What's infuriating is that Israel is doing the dirty work for these European countries. Israeli citizens are literally dying so Europe can be safe. Yet Europeans insist on treating Israel like a pariah state. They're ingrates and antisemites.

@Ostrov_A Spoiler: No.

Will UK finally stand up to Iran?

@LauraTrottMP They're masked to intimidate and so that they can get away with behaviour they should be accountable for (sometimes illegal).

This is a grim picture of the appalling behaviour Jewish students are facing. These vile individuals are masked to intimidate. We should not tolerate this. Any student involved must face firm disciplinary action, or we signal this behaviour is acceptable. Enough.

@SweeneySteve Main character syndrome

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

@tomhfh Because they're all losers looking for meaning and structure in their life and Islam gives it to them.

I just finished watching Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere. It's a fascinating look at some of the most odious people on the internet. Their medieval attitudes towards women, gay people, and jews. And yet it seemed to sidestep explicitly highlighting a rather significant point regarding their ideology. From Sneako to Andrew Tate, why have so many of these manosphere influencers converted to Islam?

@jacobkornbluh Did he explain to him that the crux of the haggadah is the Jews returning to the land of Israel and building the temple?

📸 EXCLUSIVE 🫓 Mamdani met today with Orthodox bizman Dov Bleich, who showed him a Haggadah dating to the Civil War era in NY ahead of Passover. Bleich said the mayor appeared “visibly moved” by the artifact and reaffirmed commitment to protecting Jewish New Yorkers. More ⬇️

Russian suicide drone caused significant damage to a synagogue in Odessa Ukraine that cares for orphaned and abandoned Jewish children. The home & staff are very close and dear to my family.

@toryboypierce @SadiqKhan Rejoining the EU would be shafting Londoners. I honestly don’t get the obsession with that declining, sclerotic, irrelevant organisation

London mayor @SadiqKhan says rejoining #eu is inevitable. Can he stick to what he does best. Shafting Londoners, drivers, and commuters

@BennettArron Israel did not carry out ‘revenge’ attacks. It set out to systematically destroy Hamas’s capabilities. Those are two completely different things

@PolitlcsUK @henryolsenEPPC @antoguerrera Why would we want to attach ourselves to that declining, defenseless organisation?

🚨 NEW: Sadiq Khan has called on Keir Starmer to fight the next election on the message that a vote for Labour is a vote to rejoin the EU [@antoguerrera]

@JohnSimpsonNews It was interpreted exactly right

I took down my tweet on Iran & Larijani because it was being interpreted wrongly. As Donald Trump has hinted himself, the US may need someone to negotiate with. No good talking to a headbanger — and Larijani, though guilty of all sorts of crimes, clearly wasn’t one of those.

@Eve_Barlow He doesn’t seem to understand the Middle East, religion or Islamism at all…

Like I used to say to my former friends - yes he/she always seems perfectly nice to YOU because they want something from you. Oh John. What an end to your career.

@vali_nasr @gideonrachman More radical tham the man who engineered the murder of 30,000 of his citizens??

Larijani’s replacement will be appointed by IRGC. With every assassination U.S. and Israel engineering greater radicalization of Iran’s leadership. It will makes for a bleak future for Iran, Iranians, the region and ultimately makes it far more difficult for U.S. to disentangle itself from endless conflict in the region.

@piersmorgan You only recognise antisemitism if it looks like antisemitism from the 1950s. You don’t understand that antisemitism mutates- it always has - and it looks different today to the “classic” antisemitism you are familiar with.

If you want to know what antisemitism really looks like, witness this vile garbage published in the Guardian by Jonathan Liew. Why did none of the paper’s staff who saw that column when it was submitted stop it being published?

The problem is that piers can only recognise classic antisemitism. He doesn’t understand that antisemitism has evolved - as it always does - and he’s in bed with the new antisemites. He doesn’t recognise it unless it looks like antisemitism from the 1950s

Best piece I’ve read on the war against Iran

@Mr_Andrew_Fox @GSpier It’s right for him politically but indefensible morally

@GSpier This is literally the only thing Starmer has got right in his whole miserable premiership.

I have lifelong ties to the UK, Germany, and France. I also spent 18 years in the US—where my whole family are citizens. I am profoundly embarrassed. When America needed it most, the UK, once our unbreakable partner in the special relationship, chose caution over courage. Europe for the most part is not much better.

@PolitlcsGlobal @braunold What about the devastating humanitarian consequences to Israelis if Hizbollah is allowed to build up a huge arsenal of rockets in the Israeli border again? No thabjs

🚨🇮🇱 NEW: The UK, Canada, France, Germany and Italy have released a joint statement calling on Israel to avert a ground offensive in Lebanon due to the “devastating humanitarian consequences”
