This is how Israel treats humanitarians that it had abducted 250 miles from its shores.

Negotiations between the US and Iran begin today. Reading the news, we seem to be in the midst of a *monumental change* in western attitude towards Israel. The logic seems straightforward. 1/3

Ok get this, the pilots who drop two ton bombs on residential buildings killing scores of children, women and men in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran earned tens of thousands of dollars from betting on the war. How sick can these pilots get?

Check out the satellite images from July 2023 and February 2026. The Israeli military destroyed Shejaiya (Shuja'iyya) cemetery, located in the eastern neighborhood of Gaza City, and is now building a military base on top of it. This is settler colonialism 101.

Expropriation and Dispossession

A great line up of speakers looking at the impact of attacks on healthcare before and after the the so-called Gaza "ceasefire." You can join in person and online and please share, particularly with NHS staff. www.eventbrite.com/e/medicine-u...

Thanks to @SaulStaniforth for clipping and circulating this. My thoughts on the slow-motion genocide in Gaza and the limits of the juridification of resistance.

Focusing on attacks on health care I show how the Gaza Doctrine is metastasising to Lebanon and Iran just appeared. www.nybooks.com/online/2026/...

As Israeli and US forces damage 13 hospitals and 14 Red Crescent clinics in Iran this is what Belinson Hospital in Israel publishes.

Addicted to violence and dispossession. The deputy head of the Israeli Knesset and her husband dressed up for the Jewish holiday Purim as an executioner and as occupation, expulsion, and settlement.

As many have already put it, Israel's and the United State's attacks on Iran are an act of military aggression, unprovoked and unjustifiable, a clear violation of international law.

If you are interested in understanding Israel's attacks on healthcare in Gaza, their genocidal logic and objectives, take a few minutes to listen to Guy Shalev, the director of Physicians for Human Rights, Israel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldbP...

Moments of Collective Joy, to quote the one and only Lynne Segal.

Thrilled to have received the updated paperback edition of *Human Shields*, including a new Preface and Epilogue about the use of human shields during the genocide in Gaza.

Almost 20K patients in need need of lifesaving treatment, and yet: Gov to High Court: We will not allow seriously ill patients to be evacuated from Gaza to E. Jerusalem and the WB. This is necropolitics: "letting die" through neglect, systemic violence, and the creations of deathscapes.

The slow motion stage. Amidst the destruction and death, Israel has moved the yellow line another three hundred meters west.

The slow-motion stage.

Lynch pins are now sold in Israel.

Time and again Israeli president Herzog has proven his racist proclivities. I am now wondering what exactly he was thinking about yesterday when he told Chancellor Merz that the: "The global balance of power is clear – we are the ones defending Europe." Defending from what Mr Herzog?

Antisemitism is alive and well in the UK but the oldest surviving Jewish newspaper seems set on using antisemitism not so much to fight racism, but to defend a racist regime and cover up horrific violations. By abusing the term, the JC is harming the Jews it claims to represent - myself included.

The Max Planck Society has co-established a research centre for democracy, security and human rights in Israel. @gordonneve.bsky.social says the decision is “extremely controversial” and that it plays a role in the “whitewashing of…genocide”. Jonathan Rosenhead describes it as "beyond parody"

Thrilled to be taking part in the annual health and humanitarian crisis conference at LSHTM.

@perugininic.bsky.social and I just received the new cover of the paperback edition of human shields, that will include a new preface and epilogue about human shields in Gaza and Ukraine.

Speaking at Kings College later today on the targeted assassination of Palestinian journalists. If you have time do join us.

Flying to the International Committee of the Red Cross expert workshop on achieving meaningful protection for hospitals in armed conflict. This is data I will be keeping in mind during the conversations with military lawyers, academics and humanitarians.

My article on the Jewish Chronicle and the weaponisation of antisemitism is out and is open access. doi.org/10.1177/0163...

How is ‘antisemitism’ invoked in The Jewish Chronicle? @gordonneve.bsky.social shows how the paper has exaggerated & instrumentalised the term, fueling moral panic & legitimising racial governance especially around Oct 7, 2023. #OnlineFirst journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/01634437251380153

During the Vietnam War students across the US protested against the war, demanding to stop it. In Israel students have decided to strike, demanding that the state conscript the religious Jews into the military, so that they can share the burden of genocide.

As the STARVATION continues, the IDF has been pummelling Beit Hanoun with F-16 jets and bulldozers supported by tanks and infantry. IDF spokesperson now boasts that it managed to achieve its military objective: a handful of rusty rifles found in a tunnel.

Fantasies of a post-genocide Gaza. Israeli Minister Gila Gamliel posted an AI video of how Gaza will look like following the genocide, clean of Palestinians, when Trump and Netanyahu and their respective partners can enjoy the boardwalk on the beach.

Remember the missile that hit Soroka Hospital in Israel? Well check ⤵️out.

In El Salvador it is immigrants flown in from the US and in Israel it is Palestinians, often kidnapped from their homes. These prisoners are humiliated, tortured and suffer from medical neglect. The goal is to deny them basic human dignity.

British Medical Association Severs Links with Israel.

When food for the hungry is used as the killer's bait.

the death drive is insatiable.

the 'hunger games' continue

Over 80% of the Jewish public support Israel’s attack on Iran, including a majority among those who identify as "left"

From Al Shifa, Al Ahli, and Nasser in Gaza to Mariupol in Ukraine and Soroka in Beer-Sheva striking hospitals is a war crime and only an absolute #Ban on targeting medical facilities will ensure that they are protected.

In the late 1980s Israel provided support to #Hamas in an effort to weaken #Fatah. Now it is supporting Palestinian clans with ties to Jihadist groups to weaken Hamas. I wonder how this will pan out⬇️

@democracynow Guy Shalev from @PHRIsrael and I discussed the complicity of the Israeli medical establishment with destruction of Gaza and the deprivation of the Palestinian right to health www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDwd...

#AcademicFreedom | With utmost urgency BRISMES CAF demands that the Prime Minister’s Office immediately intervene and lobby the Egyptian government for the immediate and unconditional release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah. Read our letter: shorturl.at/SALSt (1/3) #FreeAlaa

Palestinians who have kidney problems you are now destined to die.

Late March 2025 Israel's Supreme Court unanimously rejected a petition submitted a year earlier calling on Israel to allow food and aid into Gaza. In this 2 part essay Muna Haddad and I show how the Court deployed three major strategies to legitimise starvation. Links to the essay below.

Starvation in Gaza, key findings

RIP Pope Francis who dedicated the papacy to speak for the marginalised and oppressed.

Must read by @KaminskiMed in @haaretzcom: When a trainee mentioned that their grant was cancelled by Trump Administration cuts, the person sitting next to me sighed and said, "and now they will blame us for this mess." He meant the Jews. 1/4
