1/4 A joint statement by Israeli human rights and civil society organizations 👇

Really useful links in here, especially for sharing with younger people / children.

. BBC News (UK) The Times and Sunday Times please be aware that your occasional commentator Rɪᴄʜᴀʀᴅ Kᴇᴍᴘ ⋁ published an article on 13/10/23 stating Palestinians have an ‘ingrained lust for Israeli blood’. Check his website for the article - I’m not going to link it. Why do you legitimise this man?

.The Telegraph do you share view of Rɪᴄʜᴀʀᴅ Kᴇᴍᴘ ⋁ in article on his website 13/10/23 that all Palestinians have, quote: ‘ingrained lust for Israeli blood’? This is islamophobic, racist hate speech. Muslim Council of Britain

If you need some light relief today try putting the text of your favourite UN resolution through the grammar /editor check in Word. Watch its system overload and explode in despair.

"If I die, remember that I, we, were individuals, humans, we had names, dreams and achievements and our only fault was that we were classified as inferior." Powerful The New York Times ad published today

.The Telegraph - does your article make clear that Kemp’s charity UK-AWIS is financially linked to the IDF? And if not, why not? See Action on Armed Violence (AOAV) and openDemocracy for more

Viewers are entitled to know that this apparently neutral interviewee calling for demonstrations condeming attacks in Gaza to be cancelled is the director of a charity funded by the IDF. IDF. Talk, why didn't you make this clear to viewers?

Hey GB News why didn't you clarify that this interviewee calling for ban on pro-Palestine march is the head of a charity funded by the IDF? Viewers have a right to know. opendemocracy.net/en/bbc-newsnig…

Decided today to do a PhD just so I can get this mug.

Disappointing to see another Daily Express article on Friday which failed, again, to mention that their quoted commentator Rɪᴄʜᴀʀᴅ Kᴇᴍᴘ ⋁ is financially linked to Israel Defense Forces. Readers have a right to know his angle. opendemocracy.net/en/bbc-newsnig…

Sorry to bother you again Telegraph Breaking News, but you forgot (again) to mention that this columnist of yours, Richard Kemp, is director of an organisation which is funded by the IDF. This is important context for readers. telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/11/2…

Hey Talk Why do you keep introducing Kemp as 'Former Commander in Afghanistan' when it would be more relevant to introduce him as current 'Director of UKAWIS, an organisation funded by the IDF'? opendemocracy.net/en/bbc-newsnig…

Overheard my 8y.o. telling sibling they had to hurry up and ‘reach consensus’ on what cartoon to watch. Naturally I’m now listening to them negotiate, knowing full well I will exercise my veto powers as the ink starts to dry.

There’s only one catholic rite that would make me feel better around Jacob Rees-Mogg The Poke

Just like asylum, this system is not broken. It is *designed* to be as difficult as possible, to prevent as many people as possible from successfully passing through it. The level of deliberate built-in cruelty is impossible to overstate. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

⚡️We're rounding up some of the great #vacancies we've seen this week from organisations supported by Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust 🧵Details in the thread (1/5) #CharityJobs #hiring #vacancy #JobOpportunity

Some of the responses to #ICJ ruling have a definite vibe of the apocryphal ‘Soviet horse wins silver, US horse comes second to last’ headline.

I did. Right at the end of December 2022, I just had this gut feeling.
