Yes, this news appeared last night on LinkedIn, a platform for professionals doing business - like contracting with Elbit Systems to train British troops. Seems we're all up to our necks in this genocide business.

Israel has succesfully ticked every single box of article II of the Genocide Convention. Here's how.... (This post will be throttled and hidden by the algorithm because it contains ISRAEL and GENOCIDE in the same sentance. Share it if you see it)

The percentage of child dead in the Ukrainian conflict is 0.3%. Zero point three per cent. The percentage of child dead in the Gaza conflict is 37.7%. Thirty seven point seven per cent. In a single statistic, there you have the difference between a war and a genocide.

Shireen Abu Akleh, a Palestinian Christian journalist, was killed in the WEST BANK. Anas al-Sharif is a Palestinian Muslim journalist who was killed in GAZA. Both were killed by Israel to hide the massacres that is committing in occupied Palestine from the world.

You're Not Crazy. This Genocidal Dystopia Is Crazy. “I say this because living in the west during a western-backed genocide can make you feel like you’re going insane.” Reading by Tim Foley.

You can be a celebrity or a ordinary person. If you stay SILENT, PASSIVE, INACTIVE while Palestinians trapped in Gaza - human beings who breath, feel and dream exactly like you - get slaughtered by an unchecked army, you are no different from those who continued to go by their

Very happy to be a co-signatory to this letter calling on MPs to back the #CANBill in this week’s private members’ bill ballot. There's nothing partisan about nature - just do it @Ed_Miliband @SteveReedMP

So we'll said. We need more of this to prevent genuine anti-semitism from taking hold across a generation.

Been out walking and listening to birdsong all day. It has been lovely. Back indoors, I'm reminded of other realities...

That about sums it up... (and little wonder the slightly slower horrors of ecological catastrophe receive such an inadequate response).
Six months of this now. Half a year. Half a year of genocide apologia. Half a year of the most outrageous lies you can possibly imagine. Half a year of seeing children's bodies ripped to pieces and starved to skeletons on our social media feeds. Half a year of atrocities

Few years ago I was speaking at a virtual conference just after this fella. He was right about sustainability then and he's right about Israel now. Being Jewish himself, he avoids that doublespeak charge of 'antisemitism'.
