The Home Office says: "Any foreign national with a history of crime and violence is not welcome".
In reality, at least four high-ranking Israeli military and political officials have been given special immunity to visit Britain amid the Gaza genocide.

Coming to the UK from overseas is a privilege, not a right. Any foreign national with a history of crime and violence is not welcome. If you pose a risk to our country, you will be refused entry or removed.

If another country did this once they'd become international pariahs. Israel do it every day and we're all supposed to accept it as normal & necessary.

Great undercover reporting by @DeclassifiedUK showing that a British registered charity UK Toremet may be passing money to settler groups in occupied Palestine in breach of charity law.
The full video report is below.
Here is their summary.
An Israeli organisation has been caught on camera offering to help British citizens move to an illegal settlement in the West Bank. Declassified can reveal how the group, Shivat Zion, told supporters it could benefit from UK tax subsidies – despite staff bragging about “awesome” settlements. An undercover investigation saw the group’s “encouragement” officer discussing the support it would give settlers moving to Efrat, in the West Bank. “You’re next to the Arabs; you’ll hear their mosques,” he was recorded saying. “But apart from this, it’s a great living standard.”
The comments were made during a Zoom call with a Jewish anti-Zionist activist, who asked Declassified to secretly film the conversation. In February, the UK government promised to take “concrete steps in accordance with international law to counter settlement expansion”. Foreign minister Hamish Falconer said: “Israel’s illegal settlements and decisions designed to further them are a flagrant violation of international law”.
But Declassified can reveal how Shivat Zion invited supporters to claim UK Gift Aid when making donations. Despite being registered in Israel, it directed donations to a separate charity called UK Toremet Ltd, based near London. In an email seen by Declassified, a representative from Shivat Zion claimed that donations “go through” the UK Toremet charity, explaining that this “ensures the donations properly reach Shivat Zion”. If money were to be received this way, it could mean that support for illegal settlers could potentially benefit from British tax subsidies.

So proud of my dear friend and legend Leah Levane and co-chair of Jewish Voice for Liberation who today, on her birthday, was arrested under 'counterterrorism' legislation for sitting peacefully holding a piece of paper opposing genocide. The Hastings Police defied the High Court ruling that the proscription of the nonviolent direct action group was UNLAWFUL and therefore contrary to their role and position they are supposed to take as independent to the government and politically neutral, they have chosen to very much take a political position, contrary to the UK legislature and international law and at the behest of our war criminals in Downing Street and the State undertaking several genocides, for which it is being investigated. It is a good time to remind people that despite the Met Police having been given a dossier over a year ago by a group of lawyers that contains hard evidence of war crimes by ten Britons who served in the IOF, NOT ONE has been investigated or arrested for murdering civilians! Is holding a piece of paper terrorism or is murdering children and civilians?!

@SimonBurns4 @cem_uk_ A fine would be agreement they had broken the law.
More likely the police will face a huge payout for wrongful arrest and unlawful detention, or judges will conspire to block the action and UK will, again, capitulate to Israeli bullying.
Why isn’t Farage demanding sovereignty?

@cem_uk_ cant they issue them a fine and move on instead of acting like a pack of animals

L’ambasciata israeliana in Italia non ha apprezzato questa copertina de L’Espresso. Scrivono: “Condanniamo fermamente l’uso manipolatorio della recente copertina de L’Espresso. L'immagine distorce la complessa realtà con cui Israele deve convivere, promuovendo stereotipi e odio. Un giornalismo responsabile deve essere equilibrato e corretto.”
Ma questa foto è vera. L’autore si chiama Piero Masturzo e lo scatto è parte di un reportage dalla Cisgiordania, scritto da Alae al Said, che documenta tutte le angherie che i palestinesi subiscono da parte dei coloni.
Il viso mostruoso di questo giovane non è deformato dal fotografo, ma dalla sua stessa cattiveria e inumanità. Il fotografo ha soltanto avuto la grande capacità di catturarlo in una espressione che parla più delle parole. Questo fa il fotogiornalismo.
Grazie a @espressonline dunque, e agli autori del reportage, per il lavoro svolto. La reazione provocata ne certifica il valore.

Before Hamas emerged in Gaza, this is how the occupation soldiers treated Palestinians in the Strip in 1994.

CONTENT WARNING
I have no idea if the quoted accounts are true, but the entire world knows that #Israel uses #rape as a #WeaponOfWar
When soldiers were arrested for it, cabinet ministers threatened police officers. Now the perpetrators are treated as celebrities

Israel operates the most well-documented torture & rape dungeon in the world: A 42-year-old woman from north Gaza, former Sde Teiman innmate said: "She was bound naked to a metal table and repeatedly raped by two masked soldiers over the course of two days. She recalled that she was left shackled, naked and bleeding throughout the night before the soldiers returned the next day to continue raping her. Throughout her ordeal, she was filmed. Soldiers later showed her the footage while she was hung by her wrists under interrogation, threatening to publish the videos if she did not "cooperate". Amir, a 35-year-old Palestinian man also held at Sde Teiman, recounted how soldiers forced him to strip naked, before their dogs urinated on him and raped him. He described how the dog "penetrated my anus in a trained manner while I was being beaten". "This continued for several minutes. I felt profoundly humiliated and violated." ...a soldier in Sde Teiman inserted a fire extinguisher nozzle into a Palestinian prisoner’s anus and then discharged its contents into his body, resulting in severe internal injuries and intense pain."

#Israel citing #InternationalLaw as the justification for its #WarCrimes
Previously it simply claimed to be exempt
Funny that
Stop #UK #complicity in #Genocide, #KeirStarmer
The Prole Star@TheProleStar
Funny how all the people who were absolutely hysterical over empty ambulances being set on fire aren't the least bit bothered that Israel has announced its intention to deliberately target ambulances full of paramedics in Lebanon... And they've already started the slaughter...

Maybe our human rights lawyer Prime Minister has the answer?
Is there a reason that baby formula & nappies are blocked from entering #Gaza?
Surely the #BoardOfPeace have made sure these essentials are getting through?

Can someone explain why baby formula and diapers are blocked from entering Gaza? My child—and every child in Gaza—is in danger without infant formula. 💔

Strait of Hormuz shipping tolls would break law of the sea, says Yvette Cooper, @YvetteCooperMP, UK Foreign Secretary.
Oh look.. UK drone flew over Lebanon before and after Israel dropped 100 bombs in 10 minutes and slaughtered 303 people.
Take your law and shove it where the sun doesn't shine Yvette.

Just checking if it's still "blood libel" and "antisemitic" to raise concerns about this?

Israeli minister Ben Smotrich has OFFICIALLY announced the start of the "Greater Israel" project. He includes Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine.

Why aren't those who got palpitations over four empty ambulances not angry about these ones being bombed with the paramedics on board?
sarah@sahouraxo
Israel just dropped bombs on an ambulance in Tyre, South Lebanon — assassinating an entire medical team. Not a battlefield. Not a weapons depot. An ambulance. They are hunting and killing the people who save lives.

Referencing 7 October 2023, former UK prime minister Tony Blair wonders how Britons would react “if we woke up one day and between the hours of 6am and midday, 1,200 of our citizens were murdered, including young people at a music festival, with women raped and others taken hostage”.
Set aside again the Israeli disinformation – no tangible evidence has ever been produced of any rapes taking place on 7 October – and instead ask a more pertinent question, one Blair desperately wants to distract us from.
How would Britons respond if they woke up every day for eight decades to find they were losing more of their homeland – and their homes – to colonising immigrants claiming a right to take their lands based on a supposed 3,000-year-old birthright?
How would Britons react if many hundreds of thousands of them were given lengthy prison terms, often following torture, by kangaroo military courts set up by those same colonisers with near 100 per cent conviction rates?
How would Britons feel about foreign settler militias being allowed, again for decades, to regularly rampage through their towns and villages, setting fire to their homes and cars, pointing guns at them, sometimes shooting at their family members – all watched over by paramilitary forces that not only refused to intervene to protect them but often joined in the attacks?
Blair observes of the likely response of Britons: “I suspect it would be total determination that those responsible were going to be removed as a threat, and nothing would deter us from doing so.”
And yet here is Blair writing a column in the Sunday Times condemning a British left that agrees with him. They believe the threat to Palestinians posed by Israel’s criminal settlers, by Israel’s criminal army, by Israel’s criminal government needs to be removed with “total determination”.
The difference is that Blair is indifferent to Palestinian suffering because, in a long tradition of racists, he regards them as lesser humans. He cares only when Israelis suffer a reaction to their state’s systematic abuses of the Palestinians.
This is an extract from my article Blair’s latest deceit-riddled column vilifies the UK left to justify genocide. Find a link to the rest of the article in the reply post ⬇️

It's beyond any comprehension that the EU hasn't taken a SINGLE action against Israel.
A state of 10 million has destroyed the credibility of an alliance of 450 million people.
Why?
UNHCR Lebanon@UNHCRLebanon
One of the largest waves of Israeli strikes so far has just hit over 60 locations across Beirut and beyond. Deaths are mounting. Destruction is massive. Civilians are paying the price. Again. They are not a target. They must be protected.
