I agree with comrade @moorehn.bsky.social. When it’s so late, more drastic action is needed to stop the genocide, mass starvation, ethnic cleansing, colonizer violence. Right now, today. This is not a rehabilitation tour with words, actions matter.

Is starvation in Gaza really Israel's fault? The facts are clear Rising starvation in Gaza may have a number of factors. But Israel's wartime policies on humanitarian aid are inarguably among them.

For @forward.com, I wrote about how we know that Israel has been withholding food as a military tactic because Israeli officials have said versions of “we are withholding food as a military tactic” for the entirety of the war and pretending otherwise is willful ignorance forward.com/opinion/7586...

Holocaust exceptionalism is like brain damage

This is dangerous! It has been proven to lead to more injuries and food waste. JUST LET THE DAMN AID TRUCKS IN! This genocidal regime is evil and all those who support it are just as bad

The @LemkinInstitute is calling on every leader in the world to step in immediately with measures that ensure food and water gets into Gaza right now. No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits. GET FOOD AND WATER INTO GAZA NOW. IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT.

Wow—the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named after Raphael Lemkin, a Holocaust survivor who coined the term genocide) says plainly:

"No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits…IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT."

"HISTORY WILL DETERMINE THE RECTITUDE OF YOUR ACTIONS."

Starmer’s Labour government is still arming this genocidal Israeli state.

It’s their genocide too.

Screenshot of a Guardian article that still refers to the genocide as a “war” between two forces…

Good on the pope!
But the @theguardian.com still referring to this as the “Israel-Gaza War”? What sort of sick joke is it? How do these editors sleep at night?

Every day. It’s just the same story every single day — IDF massacres starving people at food sites they set up with US money and support.

A man explains how salmon are caught and counted on a bridge. A group of about 8 scientists (most women) are listening.

A man holding a small net looks down into a pool, an adult salmon can be seen just breaching the surface of the water.

A group of people walk towards two white buildings, one labelled Smolt Trap and one labelled Adult Trap.

Tables in an old wood ceiling room, set up with whiskey for tasting with barrels in the background.

Great morning of talks, followed by whiskey and salmon at Bushmills, can't argue with that. #FSBI2025

Delegates to the joint FSBI-IFM meeting in Belfast, outside Riddel Hall

Very belated post about the amazing @thefsbi.bsky.social and @ifmfish.bsky.social confernce we just had in Belfast. The science was incredible, the people were amazing. Pretty sure I didn't get to talk to all ~160 of you, but I had the best time, and it's feeling very quiet without you!!

You’ve got to be a real monster to come up with a headline like this… another perfectly normal day in the “democratic West”

We’re feeling the same way, for a long time. And yet, here we are… but you only need to look at which governments/countries are supporting all this, and the bigger picture becomes a bit clearer

"…Gaza is not some far away land that is too scary for you to contemplate."

Jewish journalist Antony Loewenstein is a leading voice speaking out against Israeli occupation and the ongoing war on Gaza. But some have branded him a traitor. Find out more about his story here: aje.io/NIMN

Nothing to do with Brexit or the UK government's policy on immigration of course.

How the Israel Lobby has Bought British Politics With increased political and media coverage of comments made by Kneecap and Bob Vylan at Glastonbury, it is clear that Israel and their lobbyists have a stranglehold on UK Politicians & the Media.

The manufactured outrage over antisemitism while turning a blind eye to actual genocide isn’t an accident. It’s a deliberate strategy to silence dissent by equating moral outrage with hate speech & distract the public from the real corruption andymuirhead.substack.com/p/how-the-is... #gaza #israel

The BBC has completely destroyed itself with its ridiculous pro Israel bias.

It is now one of the worst News sites in the world.
