Gandhi’s longest hunger strike was 21 days. These revolutionaries have refused food for more than twice that long in support of Palestinian liberation. We owe them everything

Qesser Zuhrah and Amy Gardiner-Gibson are on day 46 of their hunger strike. Heba Muraisi is on day 45. All are at a high risk of death. In 1981 - the last time there was a hunger strike like this - Martin Hurson died after 46 days. HMP Bronzefield has been refusing Qesser’s

Something to be written about how the stock phrases of War on Terror propaganda have finally been evacuated of literally all meaning except their core rhetorical function: to legitimize unlimited US state violence, both at home and abroad

The notion that angrily condemning Israel mass murdering civilians makes you culpable for some evil bastard shooting Jews on a beach is amongst the most as stupid and pathetic arguments I've heard. What is the logic here. Let Israel kill and Bondi doesn't happen? Fill me in here.

Why would Israel agree to a ceasefire? Bc they can violate it at will. If Hamas responds, Israel can use it as an excuse to ditch phase two of the agreement. If Hamas doesn’t respond, Israel can use it as an excuse to step up the bombing and also ditch phase two of the agreement.

Gideon Falter is vice-chair of a “charity” that raised over £1 million to fund ‘Israel’s largest militia’. A nice impartial voice for the BBC to interview about Palestine demos.

Israel can just keep bombing Gaza at will and it’ll only ever be a “test” or “challenge” to the “ceasefire.” The “ceasefire” will only actually be broken when Hamas finally responds.

Israel killed a senior Hamas commander in Gaza on Saturday, the Israeli military said, another challenge to the shaky ceasefire between the sides brokered by the United States.

The child Zaher Nasser Shamia, from Jabalia camp in northern Gaza, was shot by Israeli forces, left bleeding on the ground, and then run over and torn in half by an Israeli bulldozer. Any post that mentions him — even one showing his smiling photo — is hidden or restricted.

These are the eight prisoners taking part in what is thought to be the biggest hunger strike in UK history since Irish republicans began refusing food in 1981. Tonight it has emerged that five of them have been taken to hospital. Two haven't eaten for nearly 39 days.

In Stuttgart, Maccabi supporters chant "Let the IDF fuck the Arabs," "Death to the Arabs," and "Fuck you Palestine." The @VfB speaks of a "successful soccer evening." Open calls for genocide in German stadiums; politicians, media, and sports remain silent. Shameful.

It ought to be an international scandal that the United States has sanctioned the UN special rapporteur, stripped her of bank accounts. Same with ICC. In order to defend Israeli atrocities in Gaza the US (aided by Britain) is trashing all legal and moral international norms.

Nothing more cynical than Labour MPs pretending to care about migrant workers to score points but otherwise crowding through the division lobbies to support morally vicious policies from a government that puts out Trumpian cruelty porn on deportations and echoes Enoch Powell.

In Polanski's view, migrants serve the purpose of doing the jobs he thinks are beneath him and his class, on the cheap. Socialists should reject this view of social care and migration.
