That "weaponising our pain" piece is so, so powerful.

"Every country was put on notice by the ICJ that there was a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza.. every country became obliged under the law.. not to speak fine words, to take action to prevent genocide.. that obligation was activated on 24th Jan 2024"

Chris Sidoti spells it out

Last chance for those trying to keep us in suspense!

Ok, ok, ok.
Summer is busy, we know it.

Israel is deliberately depriving people of water in #Gaza.

The amount of water available for Palestinians is incredibly insufficient.

This is unacceptable: www.doctorswithoutborders.ca/palestine-is...

Closing soon - CfA for the @swip-i.bsky.social conference on 'Ways of Knowing: Epistemologies and Pedagogies.' Abstracts from a range of disciplines most welcome & also papers which engage with the work of Professor Sandra Harding - join us in @maynoothuniversity.ie in Dec!

Barry Malone: When Israel decides to silence the 'voice' of Palestinians Many Western journalists do not regard Palestinian journalists as colleagues and that’s why those reporting from Gaza can be killed by Israel with impunity, writes Barry Malone

There’s a public survey open for the general public to give input as to whether the Basic Income for the Arts scheme should continue.

I implore you to take the 2 mins to fill out this survey and call for the BIA scheme to be continued and further developed.

Israel planned this for decades, bit by bit, kompromat by kompromat, Friend of Israel by Friend of Israel donation. Lie and hasbara by lie and hasbara.

They gambled that it would be too late to save thousands and thousands from their death.

They were right. It is too late.

'We have no energy left due to hunger': The last remaining journalists in Gaza are facing starvation Media watchdog Reporters Without Borders said on 8 July that more than 200 journalists had been killed in Gaza since 7 October 2023.

Not all Jews are Zionists — Alan Shatter does not speak for me The past 21 months have caused increasing tensions between those in my community who stand in solidarity with Palestine and those whose loyalties remain with Israel, no matter how many red lines they ...

“Not all Jews are Zionists” - no “war” simply began on October 7th as Irish academics have claimed. Really thoughtful piece that will especially resonate with Irish families who have direct, lived experience of Nazi Germany www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention is calling on every single leader in the world: DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO GET FOOD & WATER INTO GAZA RIGHT AWAY. Even if it takes bypassing the reports, meetings, endless conferences, parliamentary sessions, UN sessions, and all the other regular diplomatic channels that have led nowhere. Just do it. Genocide must not be allowed to continue while we all watch. We must not allow mass starvation in Gaza. We cannot wait any longer. IF YOU HAVE POWER, USE IT. HISTORY WILL DEMONSTRATE THE RECTITUDE OF YOUR ACTIONS.

DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO GET FOOD AND WATER IN TO GAZA.
This is from Lemkin Institute begging..... we are all begging.

Global oil and gas emissions standard put on pause after Shell walks away Energy group experts quit after draft guidance on global warming plans ‘did not reflect the industry view’

The decision (to walk away) “in no way reflects a lack of commitment to climate action”

I’m increasingly amazed by the neck of some PR people who will tell outright lies with a straight face.

There will come a day when everyone will have always been against this.

"There is no case since WW2 of starvation that has been so minutely designed and controlled"

Famine expert Alex de Waal on Israel deliberately starving an entire civilian population

85% of Gaza’s population in the 5th stage of malnutrition “IPC Phase 5” - the most catastrophic and famine phase, where a large portion of the population is acutely malnourished, experiencing starvation and death.

Forced starvation is an act of genocide.

'Palestine is a mirror held up to the world’s moral and political failures' - Francesca Albanese www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel... #gazaisstarving #gazagenocide

Gaza is being deliberately starved to death in front of the whole world, and the only people being arrested over it are those who opposed the crime.

“ 'I’ve been searching for something to feed my children but there is nothing.'
Daily 🆘 messages are coming in from our starving UNRWA colleagues, every day.

Food is available only a few kilometers away.

Inaction is complicity and makes us lose our humanity."

- UNRWA Commissioner-General

We are receiving desperate messages of starvation from #Gaza, including from our colleagues.

Food prices have increased 40 fold.

UNRWA has enough food for the entire population for over three months, stockpiled just outside Gaza.

Lift the siege and let aid in safely and at scale.

This is really, really great, unsurprisingly.

The CFA is live for the 2025 SWIP Ireland Conference. I tell anyone who will listen it is always my favourite gig of the year. It is invariably a friendly, warm, mixed church affair!

Maynooth in December is magic. (EVERY chance Paul Mescal will be home for Christmas😅)
