@DPJHodges As everyone knows (and some object to) the marches have always been about: end the war, end the occupation, free Palestine. The war is not over. It’s a ceasefire not a peace agreement. The West Bank and parts of Gaza are occupied. Palestine is not free.

I am horrified by the news of multiple stabbings at a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur. My thoughts are with the loved ones of the victims of this heinous antisemitic attack. We must defend a society where people of all faiths can practice their religion in safety and peace.

I want u to hear these 2 doctors from Australia sending their last words, fully aware they could be killed any second. What they’re describing is horror that defies belief. 70% of their patients are kids…

I have no words left, in the face of the carnage that seems unstoppable. Unless we all stand up against it and STOP it. Making sure this is the last crime Israel commits against the Palestinians and the last genocide of human history.
Francesca Albanese: “Stop waiting. Organize. Protest. Demand more from your representatives. Disrupt. Strike. Boycott. Speak out. Relinquish an inch of your privilege so that an entire people doesn't have to lose everything. And do not fear.”

Many oppose Larry Ellison taking over TikTok, but do they know his firm Oracle stores data of the UK Home Office, Ministry of Defence & NHS? He offered Netanyahu director role & employed relative of the UK PM at the same time as bidding for the contract. https://t.co/mcI4ImLsB4

5 members of Dalloul Neder's family were killed by Israel in Gaza, including his mother and brother. He attempted to show pictures of them to his MP, Angela Rayner, and was assaulted by the police. He gave me his account of events. https://t.co/NLiGw3pw7N

21,000 children in Gaza left with permanent disabilities by Israel’s war machine. This is not just a statistic, it’s a crime against humanity. Gaza’s children are paying the price simply for being born there. The world’s silence is a stain on humanity.

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh… Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population) Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK Immigration isn’t draining us Inequality is.

The road ends here, when I realized that executing all of us is the “solution” to this problem. I write, then I am killed, then I rise again, then I am displaced — before the silence of a comfortable world watching our corpses on television, as if my death were a painkiller for

The Israelis who are fighting against genocide today, are a critical component of the global non-violent resistance that will help end the genocide, bring down the apartheid and contribute to build a ethnosuprematism-free country, just and free for all.
We are marching NOW to Gaza to break the siege. 45 minutes of walk to the Gaza border. #StopTheGenocide

WATCH: “They brought us here to openly humiliate us,” says Abu Odeh, who watched tanks roll in, bullets crack overhead, tear gas and stun grenades rain down—only 1 in 5 women got any food. The rest got fear and oppression instead of aid.
