Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel plan to seize all of Gaza and hold it indefinitely will be 'intensive'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has so far failed to achieve his goal of destroying Hamas or returning all the hostages, despite more than a year of brutal war in Gaza.
Netanyahuβs plan to βmoveβ Gazaβs people would be a vile act of ethnic cleansing against a population already facing genocide. Two months of total blockade have starved Palestinians. It must end now: reopen crossings, deliver aid at scale, and stop assaults on civilian lives.

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy.
Thank you professor.π

Meanwhile, chocolate makers have been feeling the pain as cocoa prices have almost tripled in the past year on the back of extreme weather and disease hitting harvests. Higher tariffs on imports from Ivory Coast and Ecuador are expected to drive costs higher. Ivory Coast, the worldβs biggest cocoa producer, has been hit with levies of 21 per cent.

Cory Booker's speech is not just legendary for its length, but the content is breaking down every 'egregious' abuse of power in the US right now. More power to Cory. Who else will stand in the way? And who else will do the right thing? The time is now.
