Having run out of children to kill in Gaza, it appears Israel is now targeting children in Iran. This was Tehran just hours ago.

It's been a while, but I've written a review of the new PULP album for @thethinair. I think I've successfully conveyed that it's a really good album, especially if you're a Pulp fan. That's the much shorter version - you're very welcome. X https://t.co/uVHovFlCfb

Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr @Tanyaalih for your courage, passion and eloquence. Watch EVERY MINUTE of this extraordinary interview about the grotesque murder of 9 siblings in Gaza. I just don't know how she holds it together. /1

Still kills me how we're expected to pretend this guy is an indigenous middle easterner when he sounds exactly like a cast member on The Sopranos.
