Listen to the end. Stunningly beautiful. The broader solidarity of which he speaks is the Council of Europe, the UN, the ECHR, the Geneva Conventions, the UNRC, the EU & so much more.

Those who seek to destroy these have failed to learn the lessons of history.

This was fun. Hope you enjoy it. Please share if you do!

Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel’s Minister of National Security, said during an interview with Israel’s Channel 12 on Wednesday that he believes Israel needs to “occupy Gaza and stay there” and that they would develop a “plan of encouragement” to make Palestinians leave.

An Israeli human rights lawyer interrupts her own Al Jazeera interview for a tearful plea condemning Israel’s war on Gaza and Israelis attacking aid trucks headed for Gaza.

So yet more unilateral favouring of the EU (their exporters over UK's) with a one way continued Single Market for them.
UK will accept their (CE) standards on its market (legally has to in NI) ..but UK counterparts will need EU certifying at extra cost for sale on EU/EFTA market

This is exactly what you might imagine they’d say - at least in a Marina Hyde column - and apparently it’s real!!

בשלהי יום העצמאות האומלל בתולדות המדינה צריך לאמר גם את זה:
בשבעה באוקטובר ישראל לא היתה בסכנה קיומית. היום היא כן.
לא בגלל חמאס, חיזבאללה או אירן, אלא כתוצאה ישירה של התנהלות הממשלה האסונית, ההרסנית והמושחתת שהיתה פה אי פעם.

Netanyahu government ministers join far-right 'march to Gaza' demanding resettlement of the Strip and Palestinians' expulsion

Attacks by extremists on aid convoys en route to Gaza are appalling.

Gazans are at risk of famine and in desperate need of supplies.

Israel must hold attackers to account and do more to allow aid in – I will be raising my concerns with the Israeli government.

This👇. And made so much worse by those yelling 'antisemite' or 'traitor' or 'superfluous Jew' at anyone who criticised them - you know who you are. Zoe Strimpel et al.

This was fun. If you are walking the dog, making the supper, doing the ironing or much better, wandering in blue bell woods, do have a listen. Hope you enjoy it! Thanks to Tim Owen, Ken Macdonald KC, ClientEarth KlimaSeniorinnen Greenpeace International, Matrix

Appalling.

Our town.

Once again, the UNRWA building was torched and it's workers stoned.

A direct result of the incitement of the Netanyahu regime.

Seven months in with few military objectives achieved, hostages not released & Hamas reinfiltrating into areas cleared previously, the IDF are starting to question the war.

Shame on all who quietly cheered on this futile IDF military campaign.

American doctors are in Gaza - but their sedatives aren't strong enough for surgeries. People 'wait for death':
