"They should be ashamed of their silence." This is not a bunch of student protestors. This is the editorial board of the Financial Times.

Israeli army and police protect Jewish settlers expelling Palestinians from their homes and land in latest bout of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. By Quique Kierszenbaum and Emma Graham-Harrison . theguardian.com/world/2025/may…

Mamdani's victory in the Democratic mayoral primary shows that it is possible to criticize Israeli atrocities even in heavily Jewish New York City. I suspect his candor helped him. The defeated Cuomo defended the genocide. trib.al/eOuRpNS

In the UK you can be arrested for flying a Palestinian flag but it's fine to send millions of pounds to an illegal Jewish settlement responsible for racist violence & ethnically cleansing Palestinians. Story by the great Haroon Siddique. Charity Commission theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

Because Israel was founded in response to the Nazi genocide, it is harder to accept that the Israeli government in turn would commit genocide. One obviously does not preclude the other, but Israel benefits from the cognitive dissonance. That must change. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

A group of high-profile Israeli public figures, including academics, artists and public intellectuals, has called for “crippling sanctions” to be imposed by the international community on Israel, amid mounting horror over its starvation of Gaza. theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…

The sense of failure is strong among many journos. ⁦Nesrine Malik⁩ is right Israeli authorities rely on ‘western media to treat its claims as somehow plausible, despite the fact that time and again, it has made claims that turn out not to be true’ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The absurdity of JD Vance coming to Europe to lecture us on the death of free speech is laid bare. The Trump appointed head of Federal Communications Commission threatens ABC’s licence over his mild Kirk comments and Kimmel is gone. Free speech? Pah. cnbc.com/2025/09/17/cha…

‘The killings have mercifully stopped in Gaza, but there must now be a refusal to normalise what will follow – a return to a status quo in which we all keep on pretending that Palestinian life is viable under the authority of Israel.’ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
