Germany at that point:
- keeps delivering weapons to Israel
- has a chancellor who said he would invite ICC wanted Netanyahu to visit
- has refused to sign any EU wide text regarding Gaza/Israel
- has been cancelling pro-Palestine voices for almost two years
- is undermining international law

The EU can't even muster the barest minimum measures to even start to hold Israel to account. Shameful! Germany, again, blocking the initiative and keeping on with its complicity.

Today, we protested infront of the UN Campus in Bonn, Germany. We, the people, mandated the General Assembly to convene an emergency special session, pass a robust “Uniting for Peace Resolution” and approve the deployment of a UN protection force to Gaza now!

Using the recognition of Palestine as a threat to Israel is tone deaf and repugnant. The way the West treats everything about Palestine & Palestinians is _always_ through the lens of Israel - how about we just recognise a state, recognise a people, recognise and condemn injustice.

I went out to challenge the law used to ban Palestine Action.

“When people who oppose all forms of violence, who are trying to stop war and terrorism, are arrested on terrorism charges, nothing makes sense any more” - spot on from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

For those wondering what remains to stop the genocide.

I agree with @craigmokhiber.bsky.social - the next step is #UnitingforPeace Resolution, triggered by GA, upholding the responsibility to protect.

A UN-flagged joint force must dismantle the siege.

Protesting over Gaza’s starvation feels like screaming into a void – but we mustn’t stop | Nesrine Malik Political platitudes and a few trucks of aid won’t save the children dying now. But they show leaders can’t ignore public opinion for ever, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

US-funded contraceptives for poor nations to be burned in France, sources say U.S.-funded contraceptives worth nearly $10 million are being sent to France from Belgium to be incinerated, after Washington rejected offers from the United Nations and family planning organisations to buy or ship the supplies to poor nations, two sources told Reuters.

Is burning ~$10 million of US-funded contraceptives for poor nations considered waste, fraud, or abuse?
