Fair play to Belgium.

📸 The cover of Italy’s L’Espresso features a photo of an armed Israeli "settler" filming a distressed Palestinian woman in the West Bank, under the headline L’abuso (Abuse).

Israel's new law mandating death by hanging for Palestinians is apartheid Israel does not hang Israelis who kill Palestinians. It holds more than 10K Palestinians—including 1000 children—without charge or conviction. Any politician or journalist who does not acknowledge this apartheid is complicit

"Israel" is a colony built on theft and genocide, and its existence is upheld by continuous murder and theft. It is irredeemable, unacceptable, and the only just settlement is a single democratic PALESTINIAN state from the river to the sea. You do not have a "right" to steal people's land

The eyes of the world have turned away, but Gaza is still starving and the West Bank is still being annexed piece by piece in blatant violation of international law.

ISRAEL IS COMMITING GENOCIDE AGAINST THE INNOCENT CIVILIANS IN GAZA. FACT! REPEAT THIS!

🇵🇸

Israel continues to violate ceasefire, bombs Gaza with artillery - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/israel-continues-violate-ceasefire-bombs-gaza-artillery

The genocide goes on, and on and on

Myself with my latest, in front of Audrey Dowling's magnificent window at Halfway up the Stairs bookshop in Greystones. Christmas always needs saving!

Six political prisoners who targeted factories arming Israel's genocide are weeks into a hunger strike. But in contrast to the IRA's 1980s hunger strike, this one is being blanked by the media. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/the-hunger...

Over 50 boats, from 44 countries across 6 continents The largest flotilla in modern history Sailing to break an 18yr illegal 🇮🇱 siege of Gaza 🇵🇸 To feed starving children To stop a genocide Mainstream media is silent And western ‘leaders’ are silent.

On LBC @zoejardiniere.bsky.social lists 3 previous instances where military aircraft have been targeted by campaigners in order to prevent them being used in war crimes, and she describes the govt banning Palestine Action as terrorists as an abuse of state power. Well said.

Ozzy Osbourne RIP. Not just a leader of a great band but helped create an entire musical genre #homeofmetal

In 1984 Brits labeled Mandela and ANC a terrorist/terrorist organisation. Today there's a statue of him in Parliament Square, London. Remember that and keep fighting ✊️ ##WeAreAllPalestineAction

According to an intelligence assessment from Ukrainian officials: North Korea plans to send an additional 25,000 to 30,000 troops to assist Russia along the front lines of Ukraine. 🤔When Trump blocks aid to Ukraine, Russia has a major attack planned. This is not a coincidence❗️

This is very good. Oh btw, for re-posting it you can be charged as a terrorist.

The U.S. is helping Israel wage war on Iran over its nuclear program. But U.S. intelligence says Iran isn't building a bomb.

Sick, disgusting, fascist scum.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 U.S. intel agencies still see no evidence Iran is pursuing nuclear weapons, Senate Intel Vice Chair Mark Warner told MSNBC.

A huge congratulations to Paddy Donnelly, whose book The Golden Hare was selected as the winner of the 2025 Indie Book Awards, for the Picture Book Category. A truly magical book that has touched readers of all ages. @booksaremybag.bsky.social
