Huw Lemmey has written a profound and brilliant piece on Palestine Action, protest and proscription for the next issue of the LRB. You should read it now: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v47/…

Pictures of starved children feature on the homepages of German newspapers. SPD calls for an arms embargo, Greens for a partial one. Hundreds of diplomats call for an end to Germany's unquestioning loyalty towards Israel. Something has shifted. But so, so little and so, so late.

The new party being launched by Sultana and Corbyn will "split the Left"? Remember Starmer said he would unite the left under Labour to get elected then promptly hounded the Left saying "If you don’t like the changes we’ve made, I say the door is open and you can leave."

The Netanyahu government’s extermination of Gaza intensifies. Malnutrition is rampant, children are starving to death, people are shot while waiting for meager food rations — and US weapons allow it to happen. Trump and Congress must act NOW. Stop the slaughter. Feed the people.

Amidst a generally disgusting spectacle of CYA, the most egregious is this emerging line that those speaking the truth for years were just "crying wolf" until today, the very first day of the genocide.

The policy America has pursued in Gaza for a year and a half has now reached its logical conclusion so many Dems are running for cover. But nothing will ever wipe away the stain of having supported this conflict

It’s funny that the self-styled guardians of ‘white’ European culture can’t distinguish high culture from culture and invariably invoke the trashiest slop imaginable, in this case Andre Rieu in Maastricht, which is the classical music equivalent of microwaved McDonalds.
