Please help this Palestinian man and his family in Gaza. I've been corresponding with @Ahmedmateer: they're in desperate circumstances. But this is also about fighting the dehumanisation of Palestinians - which makes genocide possible.

I can’t stop thinking about that line. That line is absolutely incredible. “There’s no place for violence in our democracy.” Said by a war criminal about a war criminal, during an active genocide they both support. Mainstream society is ran entirely on self-deluding psychosis.

Saw a video of a child in Gaza with half their head missing. Just a gaping void where the back of the skull would be. Killed in an Israeli airstrike tonight. Thinking of Netanyahu demanding more bombs today & Biden admin scrambling to assure everyone they’re still sending them.

1/ I’m an Israeli historian. My community is still too silent about the horrible war in Gaza. Over 8 months I’ve closely followed the war, reading >1000 articles and viewing >1000 videos/images of the war from all sides. My summary conclusions & full report are in the 🧵:

Ok so sometimes as health editor of The Sunday Times I write a lot of negative, hard to read stories. It is sadly a hazard of the patch. But every now and again you get a really lovely story. Reader I give you dogs that can smell epilepsy. FREE to read:

Cobble warns his epileptic owner exactly 37 minutes before an attack. Other dogs help with diabetes, MS and autism. Between them they’re saving the NHS millions

We all know that if Russian forces had burned alive dozens of refugees, including little kids, there would be justified screams of outrage and disgust from Western leaders and media outlets. It would be used as key evidence that Putin is one of the great monsters of our age.

People are desperately trying to leave Rafah as the Israelis attack. Nowhere is safe & there is nowhere that has the facilities to cope with such a large movement of people. Our government stands on the sidelines & does nothing to halt this.They are detestable & beneath contempt.

I can't believe how much worse it is getting in Gaza right now, while our leaders say nothing and do nothing to stop Israel's war of annihilation. I'm terrified for my friends and their families. Calling for a ceasefire isn't nearly enough, there must be action immediately.

Recent conversations have reconnected me to important work about how professional regulators can connect to the human aspects of their work - have a read of my blog 👇 @gmcuk @nmcnews @TheGPhC @prof_standards @OU_HWSC #compassionateregulation #humanisingcare @SFMassie
