Great doc on escalation of violence in #WestBank since Oct 7. It highlights potential breaches of international law by Israeli military and why these breaches might lead more Palestinians to take up arms. via @IsobelYeung @joshbakerstory @saraobeidat

This really is a superb podcast series. What I like most of all is it doesn’t try to tell you what to think about #ShamimaBegum, but it presents the story as @joshbakerstory & his team uncovered it. The best kind of investigative journalism.
What happened to the person who convinced Shamina Begum to join ISIS? Episode 10 is here https://t.co/wGTgJMZk9w - I've not been home for two days and the team and I have been awake for nearly that long to make it happen. Thank you for listening. Over to you. ❤️

To that extent, Shamima Begum is British, “our” problem, & needs to be seen as such. That’s not about being “soft” or “weak” or whatever unhelpful other label you might want to apply. It’s just am assessment of what it means to be British and have meaningful citizenship
