"The partial withdrawal left Israel in control of roughly 53 percent of Gaza"
This means that the area *not* under Israel's control is about the same size as Glasgow.

"There is a basic racism about Western reporting"
Over 200 journalists killed by Israel, aid workers... look at the attention their deaths or lives received, barely any.
To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Blair took us to war on a lie, a war that killed a million Iraqis & destabilised the entire region. And the reason he's now being touted for a role governing Gaza (and allowed to swan around the world making millions from dictators) is because there's been no accountability #GMB

Who were the very small clique of genocide supporters standing up and applauding (a part from Israel)? Apparently, the US and UK remained in the room, to their shame. I hope the broadcasting of Netanyahu's speech in Gaza (a form of torture) included a video of the mass walk out

A Israeli academic asked his followers on X which sanction would really convince ordinary Israelis that they are isolated internationally.
"Expulsion from football tournaments" was the most popular answer, followed by "ending visa-free travel to Europe"
