Minister Smotrich- the de facto governor of the West Bank- calls for “sterile zones” around settlements in order to “prevent Arabs from entering” and to stop the olive harvest.

This is effectively a call to cleanse the West Bank of Palestinians under the guise of security.

its gotten lost but it really is incredible that Netanyahu brought in a fake hostage family member to tell the actual hostage family members to accept their deaths by indiscriminate airstrikes

They just bombed a hospital right now killing hundreds. Literally hundreds in one go.

Intentional attacks on civilians are prohibited and unacceptable. There is no justification for such crimes, whether they are committed as part of a struggle for freedom from oppression or cited as part of a war against terror.

I’ve decided to resign from The Labour Party and serve as an Independent Mayor.

People are tired of being controlled by Westminster and Party HQs. They want someone to stand up for them. Let the people decide. £25k by end of Aug & I’ll stand as North East Mayor👉gofund.me/98547c6b

At the Shell shareholders meeting right now. Incredible scenes. The entire meeting is being shutdown. Shell go to hell #shutdownshell

I would be really grateful if The Guardian The Observer & TED Talks made a comment on this ruling. Any comment.

It has huge ramifications for UK journalism. And some basic solidarity from the organisations who published the work would go a long way.

Thank you.

LAMSIG is very saddened to hear of the passing of John O'Dwyer, whose legacy at Bilkent University, across Turkey, and beyond is huge.

A thread on the Iraq war. I came to the US as a college student in Jan 03 and couldn’t believe the BS people were selling and buying about Saddam + 9/11 and/or nukes. What was obviously nonsense to people outside the US was treated with laughable credulity by Very Serious People.

This is what thousands of Israelis saw and heard:

Mind-blowing that a The Guardian journalist writes an article about a film on the Nakba and manages to quote two Israeli ministers, including an ex finance minister as if his opinion matters at all, but no Palestinians. theguardian.com/world/2022/nov…

Sickening.

Some fine footage of yesterday’s arrest. My additional concern is that three male officers turned up at my house, woke my wife and daughter, and searched it at 11pm. I finally arrived home at 3.30am. The British Press Photographers Association Story Picture Agency

I am neither the first nor the last one to call it Apartheid. It is an unavoidable consequence of pursuing settler-colonialism under the pretense of security.
