One day, I’ll be standing in an auditorium full of undergrads teaching them about Nazism and Zionism under the same module. I’ll show them a documentary about May 26th 2024 - when Israel dropped several 2 thousand ton bombs on sleeping refugees in a tent, the students will lament on how the world could possibly remain silent if we had video footage from months of similar carnage. We’ll sociologically analyze how global consent and complicity is manufactured through propaganda, and then students will be asked to write a 1000 word essay on the fake beheaded babies story. And this is how history simply repeats itself, unless the cycle is broken by a few brave souls. Are you on of them?

AIPAC Shakur, also known as Hakeem Jeffries, just came out to confirm that he will not whip Democrats to vote against the Defense Appropriations Act, which means that Section 19 permanently fusing the Israeli military-industrial-technological-intelligence complex with that the US and thereby giving it unlimited access to US funds, arms and tech is guaranteed to pass. Never forget that AOCIA and other pseudo-radical Democrats endorsed him to become House leader without asking for anything in return.

Sometimes you read something that tells you what you already know…but you feel as if for the first time. I read this searing piece through hot tears of rage and renewed determination. Canada should be using every tool we have - legal, diplomatic, economic - to rein in and isolate this rogue state. It should be a national scandal that we aren’t. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

A landmark review into maternity services has found “stark inequalities” in maternity and neonatal care UK — with women from religious and ethnic minority backgrounds, including Muslims, persistently experiencing poor outcomes. buff.ly/QxnfFxZ

Watching Jeremy Scahill make Ro Khanna visibly uncomfortable by needling his support for Iron Dome and condemnation of the Palestinian Resistance was a great start to the day Wish there were more principled left voices holding politicians accountable for their liberal Zionism

For those not quite sure about Sacha Baron Cohen or his racist 'comedy' characters including 'Ali G' (A Jew pretending to be a Muslim pretending to be black), have a little look at his pedigree. He is a graduate of the Habonim Dror School of racist comedy. A Zionist grooming and radicalisation vehicle for young Jews. Here's the article I wrote about it [link in replies]: The Habonim Dror School of Racist Comedy Source: Al Mayadeen English 31 Aug 2022. In their attempts to groom and radicalize Jewish children and young people, into ideological partisans of the ideology of Zionism, the Zionist movement seems to have fostered an identifiable strand of racist comedy. Zionist youth groups such as Habonim Dror are key to this according to the testimony of former members. The Zionist movement makes a very significant investment in the indoctrination of Jewish children and young people. In the UK, the largest group fundraising for the ethnic cleansing of Palestine is the United Jewish Israel Appeal (UJIA). It invests in a wide range of organizations for young people, all dedicated to fostering the racist ideology of Zionism. But it also schools and coaches young Jews in wider racist ideas and ideologies. How does this work out when they grow up? Take the example of a school in North London, the Haberdashers’ Aske’s School – now known more simply as Haberdashers’ after dropping the name ‘Aske’s’. This was because the Merchant, Robert Aske, was an investor in the Royal African Company which had a monopoly on the British slave trade. As with most areas of public life in the UK children who attend private schools are significantly over-represented in elite professions including in the entertainment industry. As it happens, significant numbers of nationally and internationally known entertainers attended the school including : Matt Lucas and Ashley Blaker who were behind the popular comedy show Little Britain. Robert Popper, who among his other activities was Commissioning editor at Channel Four where he commissioned Bo’Selecta and produced two series of the comedy Peep Show. David Baddiel, the stand-up comedian, and co-host of Fantasy Football League. Perhaps best known is Sacha Baron-Cohen who made his name presenting himself as a young Muslim (Ali G), pretending to be black, and then played a series of other Muslim comedy characters including Borat in the internationally known film of the same name. Work produced by all five has been criticized or removed from streaming services for racism. However, many of those involved in the British comedy world (such as Baddiel, his brother Ivor, Popper, Baron-Cohen, the producer of Whose Line is it Anyway/Mock the Week, Dan Patterson, and his colleague in both shows, Mark Leveson) also credit a little known Zionist youth group - Habonim Dror - as playing a role in their success.  The Jewish Chronicle reported that Lucas was a Habonim alumnus. He subsequently clarified the was a member of RSY-Netzer, which was, however, also signed up to the racist ideology of Zionism, through formal membership of the Zionist Federation and thus the World Zionist Organisation. Read on at the link in replies.

To the best of my knowledge I have never met a member of the IRGC. Neither expressed “a positive opinion” about them. An English woman named Shabana Mahmood has just made it punishable by 14 years in prison so to do so as a free-born Scotsman I will have to reconsider that. So far as I’m aware - as a UK legislator across five decades - this is the first time I have been explicitly told that I can go to prison literally for my opinion. For those of you cheering, remember, it will be your opinion next.

I talked to @mehdirhasan about the genocidal mentality that overtook Israeli society long before Oct 7 – a reality Western media has dutifully concealed
Zeteo@zeteo_news

“We were told our whole lives that Palestinians are the ones who hate Israelis... it felt like reality was flipped.” @AbbyMartin tells @mehdirhasan about the zionist extremism she saw while conducting “man on the street” interviews with Israelis, in 2017.

By order of the increasingly despotic @Keir_Starmer regime, it's now punishable by upto 14 years in prison to "express a positive opinion" about Iran's IRGC. Meanwhile you can continue to freely advocate for genocidal Zionism and "IDF" terror in Britain bbc.com/news/articles/…

Brad Lander loves to posture as a progressive protesting ICE in public while investing in it behind the scenes. Under his watch, NYC pension funds tripled their holdings in Palantir, the company whose tech powers ICE deportations and surveillance. amny.com/news/nyc-pensi…

Right now, UK activists imprisoned for resisting Elbit — the Israeli weapons manufacturer — are on hunger strike. Meanwhile, here in the U.S., people who claim to be anti-Zionist are celebrating Brad Lander, who invested NYC pension money in Elbit during the genocide.
Within Our Lifetime@WOLPalestine

No matter how much he claims to oppose AIPAC, Lander literally invested in the Gaza genocide. 8 hunger strikers in the UK are risking their lives to resist the genocide & Elbit while Lander defends investing in the same weapons used to massacre Palestinians. What side are you on?
