This is….. For one, “genocide” is not a “liberal term,” nor does it reduce our struggle to a humanitarian crisis (I mean, what?!) Genocide implies both the existence of a culprit and the need for punishment; two conditions that make the argument presented in this video invalid. Secondly, I’m not sure if this is an attempt at criticizing/highlighting the uselessness international law, but what comes across is a needless effort to complicate/problematize a framework that is already made marginal by the ruling class: maybe you think the word “genocide” as it relates to Gaza has become mainstream, because of the bubbles we inhabit, but the truth of the matter is that the majority of the world’s powers are yet to officially acknowledge genocide, (because acknowledging it means having to do something about it etc.), and so the argument in this video is inadvertently in service of the status-quo, not a disruption to it. We don’t need to do all this.

The EU wanted Vucic's servile, corrupt Serbia willing to bypass environmental regulation so Germany can be provided lithium - and Russia wanted Vucic's continued refusal to divest from Russian gas
It's notable that this protest movement succeeded against international interests.

🚨 “Chambers’s legal team discovered that [Fergie’s] phone was no longer in the custody of the national court in Madrid and had been turned over to the FBI…”
Where is the law? Apparently, no where to be found in this case of political persecution.

This is not impartiality. This is anti-Palestinian racism:
"The Department for Education has previously flown the Ukrainian flag and encouraged pupils to do so"
Palestine? "Education Secretary Lucy Powell: "Schools are a place to be impartial." middleeasteye.net/news/uk-sa…

1. Palestinians have a right to use force against Israeli occupation soldiers
2. Palestinians have a right to use force against settlers attacking them on their own land
3. Israel is committing genocide not just in Gaza, but in all of Palestine (and also Southern Lebanon)

Heidi Bachram is there a reason why you cropped out our logo from our statement and are systematically silencing Jewish Anti-Zionist Voices?
It’s pretty antisemitic to assume all Jews favor and support a genocidal and colonial “state” committing a genocide.
Free Palestine!

Much like the Cass Review, the Bell Review cloaks ready-made conclusions in the guise of pseudo-academic inquiry, only this time the government preempted critique by feeding friendly media agreed lines before anyone could comb through it. The truth is out but the damage is done.

Mike Leigh and Jim Broadbent's A Sense of History, from 1992. One of the best uses of 26 minutes that I can think of! youtube.com/watch?v=qdikUsUv…

Apparently bombarding equivalent to 13 Hiroshimas, sterilising the soil, poisoning the water, and prohibiting even a single seed from entering Gaza - so ECOCIDE is not an issue Greens should be concerned about.

The proposed policy is unenforceable. It will collapse under mild legal pressure.
If your boss makes you take off your Palestine badge but lets colleagues wear a poppy, an Ukraine flag, or comparable symbols, just sue them.
And then donate your damages to an anti-Zionist org.

The most notable thing about this is how the old talking points just don't work anymore. For the first time in decades, they are being openly and effectively contested. And it's not just Ashok or the Greens. Many people have seen through them. That doesn't go back together.

Cloud Video Platform (CVP) is down across large parts of England and Wales since 10am. Many of us today, both as prosecution and defence counsel, can not proceed with trials and other hearings. Our work to clear backlogs is hampered. Please urgently let the CBA know which court has been impacted. On this thread. (DM for which case please to contain sensitive material). With thanks

People will look back in history and think Shami Chakrabarti must have had her head in her hands because someone was defending the genocide in Palestine, only to realise it was actually because someone pointed out that the ideology which produced that genocide might be racist.

Every time the BBC airs the crocodile tears of a British zionist who feels “hurt and upset” at being told their ideology is racist, Hind Rajab enters my mind: six years old, trapped in a car with her murdered family, pleading to the Red Crescent to save her.

The BBC still peddling the dangerous myth that states have a "right" to exist – an idea invented to bully politicians into silence on Israel's mass-murder of Palestinians.
I explain why international law – wisely – denies states a "right" to exist: jonathancook.substack.com/p/…
“I don’t think any state has a right to exist"
Green Party leader Zack Polanski says he “supports whatever the Israelis and Palestinians need to live side by side with equal rights” when asked whether he supports a two-station solution
