The smell of children’s burning flesh. The sight of children with unspeakable wounds of war. But something else haunts James – and that’s the children of Gaza falling silent. Please listen to @unicef’s @james_unicef

Two years ago today, iconic Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was murdered by the Israeli state. They then lied and lied about it, waited for attention to move on, before admitting it months later. Don’t forget her, don’t forget how Israel lies about its crimes
Protest works. Trinity College Dublin students set up an encampment demanding their university divest from Israeli companies. Yesterday, the authorities accepted their demands. A good day to be in Dublin! 🇮🇪🇵🇸 @tcd_bds

As the International Criminal Court’s Prosecutor requests arrest warrants, here’s a reminder of what I wrote back in October. I wrote this column because it was obvious that a crime of historic proportions was being committed, and those who facilitated and legitimised this crime would later seek to claim ignorance. Don’t let them get away with it. It was obvious from the start what was going to happen. Now everyone who helped make this happen must be held to account Not just politicians – but media outlets too. They all made this happen.
“Israel wants to be seen as a democracy, as a normal country. And now drop by drop, step by step. This is being removed.” Former PLO legal adviser and Zeteo contributor Diana Buttu joined Mehdi, Owen and Israeli academic Ilan Pappé in a special breaking news ‘Two Outspoken’ town hall for Zeteo paid subscribers. They discussed the latest arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas leader in Gaza Yahya Sinwar on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Watch the full conversation on our YouTube channel or at zeteo.com.
This Israeli spokesperson was asked a simple question: How many civilians does Israel estimate it has killed in Gaza? His response? To go blank and silently stare at the camera.
وداع صعب بعد ارتكاب جيش الاحتلال مجازر في شمال غزة Israeli occupation forces committed a new massacre today in Jabaila refugee camp killing more than 50 civilians
The Israeli Ambassador to the UN humiliates himself in epic show of projection – while the UN votes to give Palestine full membership.
There is zero chance of the Tories winning this election. If you vote Green – or independent – you can put pressure on Labour without risking the Tories getting in.
The Tories are toast. There’s more chance of Rishi Sunak turning into a purple kangaroo named Steve, opening up a wormhole and taking us all to the mystical land of Wibble in the Andromeda galaxy wedeservebetter.uk @wedeservebetteruk
Joe Biden is panicking over Israel’s genocide. Not because he cares about the mass slaughter of Palestinians – but because he’s scared about his re elections, and the consequences for US power.
Labour just accepted the defection of hard right Tory MP Natalie Elphicke, best known for her migrant bashing, union bashing, anti abortion views, and slagging off Marcus Rashford for fighting for free school meals. That sums up who Labour now stands for. She wouldn’t join the party unless she thought it would do nothing in power to reverse the damage done by the Tories. So it’s only a matter of time until they accept him too!
Israeli leaders made their criminal murderous intentions clear over and over and over again. We all had frontrow seats to a bloodbath livestreamed every minute of the day. No excuses. Nowhere to hide.
Keir Starmer lied on national television about his support for Israel’s war crimes – in the most shameless way possible. This is ridiculous. A clip is played showing what he said, and then he lies about it. He clearly thinks everyone is stupid.
“Is this going to deliver change? No.” @owenjones84 explained why Keir Starmer’s Labour Party can’t be trusted during an appearance on BBC Politics Live. #labour #tories #politics #ukpolitics #uk #britain #keirstarmer #westminster
“People were like, ‘Why is there a child on television talking about politics?’” On the inaugural episode of ‘Two Outspoken,’ political commentator Owen Jones reminisces with Zeteo founder and CEO Mehdi Hasan about how they first met while appearing on national television. #Zeteo #TwoOutspoken #OwenJones #MehdiHasan #politics
‼️ LABOUR THREATENS TO EXPEL CORBYN OVER DONATION ‼️ Join our movement to fight back against this desperate and transparently factional attack – link in bio 🔗 Labour can’t justify expelling Jeremy Corbyn for accepting our donation when they’ve let 30 other Labour candidates take the same kind of donation. It’s rank hypocrisy. Lib Dem peer Lord Oakshott gave £600,000 to 30 Labour, 15 Liberal Democrat candidates and Caroline Lucas in 2015. None of the 30 Labour candidates were subjected to any disciplinary process so there are no grounds for action against Jeremy Corbyn for accepting a donation from us. A £5,000 donation from a people-powered movement funded by small donations is beyond the pale in Starmer’s Labour, which is bankrolled by corporate lobbyists, including private healthcare, financial services firms, the gambling industry and climate sceptics. Follow the link in our bio to help us build the alternative ⛓️💥
“I suppose what we’re seeing here is this attempt to deflect from one of the great crimes of our age.” Mehdi and Zeteo contributor Owen Jones call out Biden for reacting like the ‘white moderate’ that MLK warned about in his famous ‘Letter From Birmingham Jail,’ following the president’s denunciation of pro-Palestine protests on college campuses. Watch Zeteo’s video podcast ‘Two Outspoken’ on zeteo.com or listen on Spotify and Apple.
Great news! – @thegreenparty on 11% – The Tories completely finished Looks like the @wedeservebetteruk message is getting through! The Tories are toast. Let’s send Labour a message. Vote Green or independent – and force politicians to listen to a message of taxing the rich, investing in our services, public ownership, workers’ rights, scrapping tuition fees, taking on the climate emergency – and opposing war crimes.
“Starmer has junked policy after policy required to fix the crises in this country… and his endorsement of Israel’s war crimes… and even now he won’t call for ban on arms sales. This is a red line for me.” Momentum Chair Hilary Schan explains why she’s quit Labour and stepped down from her Momentum role in support of our campaign for the alternative ✊🏽 Join us wedeservebetter.uk – link in bio 🔗
