The British Medical Association has voted to reject the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of anti-semitism within the NHS to protect doctors. The definition has been weaponised to criminalise and silence those who criticise Israel. www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-doct...

We are 136 scholars of Middle East Studies, Antisemitism Studies, and Holocaust Studies who criticise the “Draft Act on the Criminalization of the Denial of the State of Israel’s Right to Exist,” submitted by the State of Hesse to the German Bundesrat. krisol-wissenschaft.org/wp-content/u...

The treatment of the Global Sumud Flotilla activists is abysmal. Now imagine how Israel treats Palestinian hostages detained in prisons and camps designed to systematically torture and kill them as part of its genocidal strategy against Palestinians. 🔗 www.un.org/unispal/docu...

Ethnic cleansing and apartheid. 'We are killing in the West Bank like we haven't killed since 1967.' Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth said troops avoid shooting Jewish stone-throwers while touting loosened rules allowing soldiers to shoot Palestinians. share.google/jJiU4VWZAr62...

“Their Names Are Not Numbers.” For 72 consecutive hours, we read aloud the names of children killed in Israel's genocide against Palestinians. Behind every name is a full life, and families who continue to live with the profound absence of their child. www.facebook.com/watch/live/?...

Diese Headline ist das Allerletzte. Israel gönnt sich und den seinen eine "Atempause" nach der Durchführung eines Genozids gegen die Palästinenser, des Tötens hunderter Zivilisten im Libanon, des Baus illegaler Siedlungen in der West Bank und eines Angriffskriegs gegen Iran. WTF!

The president of the United States calls for the annihilation of an entire civilisation. He announces his intent to commit genocide in Iran. Where is the outcry of European and other leaders? Where are the sanctions? #NoToWar #BoycottUSA #ImpeachTrump

The institution of the death penalty for “terrorists” in Israel is part and parcel of its genocide against Palestinians. According to members of the Knesset and the public, there are no Jewish terrorists, only Palestinian ones. 1/2

The Gods must be cruel: Inside Israel’s psychological warfare campaign in Lebanon. mondoweiss.net/2026/03/insi...

The German government will no longer support Israel at the #ICJ so as to focus on its own defence against accusations brought by #Nicaragua that it was breaching the Genocide Convention. They might have to begin to consider that Israel's attrocity crimes amount to genocide.

Bundeskanzler Merz and PM Starmer, how stupid do you think we are? First, you say Iran must “stop aggression” (while defending itself against illegal US–Israel attacks). Then you say you won’t get involved militarily since it’s not a NATO matter-just a war of aggression by US/Israel....

DAVO-CAF, KriSol, and the Association of Palestinian and Jewish Academics express concern about recent developments at @hertieschool.bsky.social following a student resolution on #BDS to divest from organisations linked to human rights violations in Palestine. ➡️ davo1.de/wp-content/u...

Possibly an unpopular view. I often get requests from journals to review papers on the mental health impact of the genocide in Gaza. Some rely on data collected by research assistants on the ground whose safety could not be guaranteed and whose names don't appear anywhere. 🧵 1/8

‼️‼️‼️ Israel has expanded it's genocidal violence to Lebanon, threatening to make it "resemble Khan Younis". We have seen in Gaza that they mean what they say. Israel needs to be stopped by all means and with all available pressures NOW. #ceasefire #NoToWar www.lemkininstitute.com/red-flag-ale...

Germany allows the US to use the Ramstein airbase to launch attacks against Iran. Germany is, therefore, directly involved in an illegal war, killing people in Iran and putting its own population at risk. #NoToWar #ceasefire www.berliner-zeitung.de/politik-gese...

This unconscionable war feels like an ultra-dangerous version of global Russian roulette - no one knows who will be hit, where, or when. Our Western leaders (with the exception of Pedro Sánchez) seem to take pleasure in terrorising people, driven by their sickening death drive.

The Culture Ministry consults the Verfassungsschutz and removes three bookstores from the jury's recommendation list. Involving the domestic intelligence service into decisions about cultural funding. Great idea... www.sueddeutsche.de/kultur/wolfr...
