Note also Shin Bet, concluded that Benjamin Netanyahu’s policy to allow Qatari money into Gaza was one of the key failures that precipitated the Hamas-led attacks on Israel on October 7.

The findings have intensified calls for an independent investigation

A New Low for Netanyahu: He Tells Israelis the Failures of Oct. 7 Will Never Be Investigated - Israel News - Haaretz.com www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Whatever the reasons: the huge destruction of evidence by Israeli forces, the ignoring of warnings, the intentional killing of Israelis (Hannibal) and many other deeply concerning elements to the day demand a full forensic investigation - not least for the victims of October 7th and their families

Israeli soldier reveals 'strange order' to cancel Gaza border patrols on 7 Oct The revelation adds to evidence suggesting Israel knew of the Hamas attack in advance, yet allowed it to occur

This new info is based on a report in The Cradle with video footage shown:

“We were playing on the phone and suddenly a strange message comes from my battalion commander,” Sheetrit told the Knesset. “And what he says on the call is something like this: ‘I don’t know why, but an order was issued that there are no patrols at the fence until nine in the morning.’”

AI review conclusion: "UKLFI's..[famine counter]claims rely on selective data interpretation, methodological misrepresentations, ... the UKLFI report appears to be an advocacy document designed to support predetermined conclusions while maintaining a veneer of technical credibility.."

I should say this is an excerpt from the poem

Can't clock off full of thoughts of genocide. A healing poem for hard times

Genocide enablers: Lord Dyson, Lord Pannick, Richard Susskind, Baroness Deech, Lady Cosgrove, Lord Grabiner, Richard Millet, Lord Howard, Sir Ivan Lawrence. You must be very very proud of yourselves. Well done. Genocide takes effort and requires political and legal cover.

UKLFI: "Reports of famine in Gaza were erroneous"

UK Lawyers For Israel: laser focused on the legal & humanitarian issues in Gaza. It's like to quibbling about the number of victims on trains to Auschwitz or whether Anne Frank had pre-existing conditions making her vulnerable to typhus. Take a bow Lords and Ladies www.uklfi.com/about-us-2/o...

Dozens of bodies of starving Palestinians, slaughtered by Israeli forces while waiting for food in northern Gaza today, were transferred in a single ambulance due to fuel scarcity. Witnesses say Israeli tanks near the site fired directly at anyone trying to reach other bodies stranded in the area.

In a fair world that would happen. Instead we have a Parliament & media that is stacked with genocide deniers and enablers. So many.

Why I changed my mind on the genocide charge against Israel For the past 21 months of horrific violence and heartbreaking suffering in the Gaza Strip, I’ve been wrestling with the contentious…

A tipping point is happening.

From the Chair of Israel Studies at UCLA:

In the past few weeks, the former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert has referred to "ethnic cleansing" and "concentration camps" in Gaza, while a former Israeli Attny Gen, a former Israeli general, and one of Israel's most famous authors, have all said it's a genocide in Gaza.

ADL plans to disseminate educational materials for secondary students, justifying secret police, concentration camps, the destruction of homes, schools, churches and public buildings in Gaza and on the West Bank and the mass deportation of Palestinians. All this reflects Jonathan Greenblatt thought

By the same logic: failing to recognize a Palestine State would be rewarding Netanyahu and his extremist genocidal government for supporting Hamas to avoid such a State. Surely we should not be rewarding terrorists in Israel or the OPT?

How Kahanism found its way into the Israeli political mainstream Gaza's destruction mirrors the genocidal rhetoric pouring out of the Knesset — which has slowly absorbed former members of a terrorist group.

To provoke a response to justify more violence. Ben Gvir is a convicted terrorist supporter now in charge of Israel's national security including the police. The Israeli Govt is a terrorist organization.

Aerial shot of Gaza City, burned and bombed into burned and shattered, unliveable wreckage as far as can be seen.

Whole area that used to be houses, shops, public transport routes, made into rubble and blackened, unliveable ruins. Aerial shot shows vast area entirely obliterated as habitable, attacked again and again by Israeli forces.

Several wrecked Gaza schools, shown from the air, pulverised by Israel's forces: windows all gaping, bombed out and covered in ash and dust. Some people are trying to live in makeshift camps amid the destruction, in former quadrangles and bomb sites.

Aerial shots of neighbourhoods with destroyed apartment buildings, houses, offices and shops, all bombed by Israel's government. Starving people are trying to live in tents and makeshift cubbies on the former roundabouts on a main road.

This what Israel has done to Gaza. Forbidden pics by a Washington Post photographer whose Jordanian air crew didn't pass on Israel's order to only photograph aid being dropped. City, suburbs, schools, people: bombed to rubble. People being starved in makeshift camps on road roundabouts. #Genocide

“Both of them.”

NEW: 90,000 people protesting against the genocide in Gaza have shut down Sydney Harbour Bridge.
