The mere mention of her name rips my heart to pieces. Hind Rajab remembered by Scott Ritter former US marines corps intelligence officer.

I condemn Iran’s attack on Israel in the strongest terms. Today I warned Iran against taking action that could push the region further towards the brink. A cycle of escalation is in no one’s interest.

“The goal is to use Israel to wash money out of the US & European taxpayers through Israel and back into the hands of of a transnational elite (BlackRock)” “The goal is an endless war, not a successful war” This is why they they locked him up.

We Jews are not Zionists. The state currently using the name Israel is a Zionist and atheist state. It is not a Jewish state. We pray that God will deliver the Jews from this Zionist oppression. We are against everything that Zionism represents, against any occupation. This is against our religion, against justice, against international law, against humanity. It should not be forgotten that real Jews and real rabbis have always opposed Zionism.

Our demands on the British government are quite simply this: Abide by international law and end arms to Israel now.

Being against Zionism and Israel does not make you an anti-Semite. Zionism is not Judaism. Israel is not a Jewish state.

BREAKING @guardian Rishi Sunak was paid c£5 million in his 20s as partner in a hedge fund at the heart of 2008 RBS crash which taxpayers bailed out for £45.5 BILLION 🔹Sunak was partner in TCI hedge fund which aggressively pushed for the sale of ABN Amro Bank 🔹RBS-led consortium then bought ABN for £50bn in October 2007 🔹biggest takeover in banking history. 🔹A year later RBS crashed 🔹Taxpayer spent £45.5bn bailing out RBS 🔹TCI made £555 million profit 2007/08 largely due to ABN sale deal 🔹Sunak was one of 19 TCI partners who shared £93+ million of the TCI ABN share profit in 2008 🔹Sunak probably walked away with £5 million while we bailed out RBS 🔹Financial Services Authority said re bank crash “it is clear that the (RBS) acquisition (of ABN Amro) undoubtedly contributed significantly to RBS’s vulnerability”. theguardian.com/politics/art…

Why is Sunak's campaign imploding and how bad could it get? I think we could - but not inevitably - be witnessing the end of the post-1945 Tory formation. A 🧵... 1/ They have achieved nothing in 14 years except Brexit...

I reject the premise of Israel’s genocide that “something needs to be done about Hamas” when Israel is the brutal colonizer. Israel has no right to do anything to Palestinians.
