Trump has clearly not spoken to a single Palestinian about this plan. Gaza is our land. Palestine is our home. Peace cannot come at the cost of our country. I urge the UK and the whole international community to resist him. Recognise Palestine now, before it's too late.

In this excellent, very brave thread by Israeli historian @LeeMordechai he argues that “… Israel is currently committing genocide” in Gaza and says that his [Israeli academic] community is too silent on this topic. I am reposting as my UK academic community is also too silent.

1/ I’m an Israeli academic. My community is too silent about the ongoing war in Gaza. Here is how I see things based on reading hundreds of articles and watching thousands of videos and images about the war. This tweet chain contains my conclusions as a sort of executive summary.

These are only civilians in this church. They are only admitting Christians who are known to the community. They have nothing to do with Hamas. I plea to the Israeli Government to leave them alone. They haven't hurt anybody. I'm not sure they're going to survive the week.

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General. Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.
