"I'm an anti-Zionist, because I'm the daughter of holocaust survivors. The Shoah is baked into my DNA, and that's why I call for Palestinian liberation. It's not anti-semitic to be anti-Zionist. It's not anti-semitic to call what's happening in Gaza genocide." Elsa Auerbach - Jewish-American Author

The May elections loom as judgment day for Starmer. If he clings on with this record — Epstein-enabler, Iran flip-flopper, and utterly tone-deaf on the base — Labour faces a widespread wipeout. New from me today for @TheCanaryUK thecanary.co/opinion/2026/0…

New Direction AFRICA@Its_ereko·
💥🇧🇷 JUST IN: President Lula just said what every Global South nation should be saying: critical minerals are ours. If you want them, come set up here. Produce here. Generate development here. We are no longer colonized countries. We will not give up our sovereignty. The West has spent centuries extracting Africa's minerals, Latin America's lithium, Asia's rare earths. Taking. Exploiting. Leaving nothing but poverty and pollution. Now the world needs these resources for the green transition, and they think the old model still works. No. Not anymore. The era of extraction without development is over. The era of sovereignty without compromise has begun. Lula said it. The people feel it. And the world better listen.

🚨 BREAKING: 🇵🇱 President of Poland: “The United States calls for democracy but does not apply it to itself.” “People talk about rights, yet there are those who don’t even know if they will live to see another day.” “We had investments in the U.S. worth millions of dollars, and they were withdrawn two days ago. We do not want to be a cause of war in the Middle East.” “My message to Arab countries: you must be united—one hand alone cannot clap.” “America has remained strong thanks to your money, yet you seek protection from it. How can a country that cannot protect itself protect you?”

An Israeli soldier films himself blowing up a Palestinian building as a "gift" to his wife, citing the biblical call to "wipe off the memory of Amalek. He filming his own war crimes as a romantic gesture is not a rogue actor-he is the ideal citizen of apartheid state

Chilling interviews from the streets of Israel. They openly call for carpet bombing and dropping nukes. Abby Martin explains how Israeli society is fully aware of the starvation and slaughter in Gaza, and they overwhelmingly support it.

"Israeli society has gone full fascist. It's like Berlin 1930." Abby Martin describes her horrifying experience in Jerusalem where every single person she spoke to espoused casual genocidal rhetoric against Palestinians. The footage speaks for itself.

One day, the UK electorate will have the right to choose their own head of state and all their legislators. On that day - and not before - the country will become a democracy. npr.org/2026/03/21/nx-…

What utter rubbish. As one of 5 girls - all Uni graduates - all business women- the daughters of a woman who came to this country without any English and produced Drs , lawyers , accountants , military officers , teachers and Britain’s first Muslim cabinet minister! Because Muslim women have achieved phenomenal things for hundreds of years. Do you really think we Muslim women have kicked the glass ceiling for decades to gain equality to listen to your islamaphobic BS only to stand by and witness this racism? I take it you agree with fascist racist rhetoric from the far right that perpetuates these tropes? We are the daughters of a wonderful feminist , a Muslim man, a working class Muslim man who worked until the age of 83. Despite racism being unlawful he was regularly abused and beaten during his working life because of the attitudes you are spouting Encouraged from head to toe from a young age often we Being unable to go out unaccompanied because of the same ignorant views you express So called “paki bashing”a reality of growng up You need to open your eyes 👀.. I’m not the problem.. it’s women like you standing on some ‘moral high ground..taking every opportunity to kick muslim women down, attempting to intimidate and silence us You do not want integration hence, you keep tweeting nonsense that keeps communities divided As long as you remain in denial we’ll never address your problem !

NEW: Benjamin Netanyahu calls on other countries to join the war with Iran, saying global leaders should “join up.” Our View : Netanyahu is turning regional conflicts into global wars. And he doesn't represent Jews. Criticizing Israel’s wars is not antisemitism.

The prominent American Jewish professor Norman Finkelstein made a striking statement: “The only country supporting weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East is Israel.” “Iran and all other Middle Eastern countries have agreed to establish a region free of weapons of mass destruction. The only country preventing this? Israel.” “The only country that refuses to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty? Once again, Israel.” “So, who is really preventing peace in the Middle East? The answer is clear.”

The public emphatically doesn’t want this — any more than it wants involvement in Israel’s dirty wars in the Middle East — but it gets it anyway because of grubby little behind-the-scenes deals.

This is not Beirut. This is not Gaza. This is Tehran. Trump and Israel are dropping bombs on civilian homes in Iran’s capital — wiping out entire neighborhoods. This isn’t “liberation.” It’s terrorism.

The utter hypocrisy of @KemiBadenoch
Has Ahmed@HasAhmed_

In 2023, @KemiBadenoch hosted an Iftar at Lancaster House. I was there. Here’s what happened: • Call to prayer ✔️ • Men and women prayed separately ✔️ • She stayed, participated, ate food, and raised no issue ✔️ Fast forward to now and she claims Ramadan events with gender-separated prayer are “wrong” and should never have happened. So what changed? Not the practice. Not the format. Just the politics and her principles. If it was acceptable when she was in government hosting diplomats and business leaders, why is it suddenly “wrong” when it involves ordinary British Muslims? You can’t have it both way

The Iranian Foreign Minister addressing the world: ​Let me get one thing straight: Egypt charges $200,000 to $700,000 per transit through the Suez Canal. Large container ships or tankers can exceed $1 million. Panama charges $100,000 - $450,000 per transit. Large Neopanamax vessels cost up to $500,000 to transit the Panama Canal. Turkey charges fees for the Bosphorus Strait. Canada charges fees for the St. Lawrence Seaway. The United States charges fees for the St. Lawrence Seaway. Iran has refused to collect fees for the Strait of Hormuz for decades. They made it free! Despite the defamation, sanctions, and isolation—and yet you want me to believe that Iran is the "bad guy" here?
