The [US] State Department recently approved the transfer of 1,800 MK-84 2,000lb (907kg) bombs to Israel, with the decision reportedly coming on the day of the WCK strike [sic]."
The Guardian: "Biden calls for ‘immediate ceasefire’ in Gaza."
“It was the flag that went to battle against Hitler’s racism,” Lammy wrote. “I’ve always felt abandoning it to racists was a betrayal of its anti-fascist heritage."
Lammy's flag is that of a state that's complicit in the fascist apartheid racist genocidal land-grabbing Israeli genocide in #Gaza.
The Guardian: "Iranian attack on Israel expected ‘sooner rather than later’, says Joe Biden. President said US are ‘devoted to the defence of Israel’ as he urged Tehran to show restraint."
What did the daft old bugger think would happen when the psychotic Israelis bombed an Iranian diplomatic post in Syria (quite possibly as the US's proxy)?
The sight of Biden tottering slowly away from the podium after threatening the Iranians with "Don't" re a military response to Israel hitting their consulate in Damascus is one of the most disturbing delusional things I've seen for some time.
“I was threatened with arrest and manhandled for doing my job, as far as I can tell.
“I was reporting on the protesters blockading the Thales arms factory in Govan, when one aggressive officer took issue with me being there.
“The police officer in question – who appeared to have some level of authority – repeatedly refused to identify himself or explain what I had been doing to warrant an arrest."
More great analysis from Olga Rodríguez in el cambio.es.
"Con su veto, la Administración de Joe Biden contribuye de nuevo a reforzar la impunidad de Israel, obstaculiza otro camino diplomático y compra tiempo para que Tel Aviv despliegue su política de hechos consumados."
"IHRA’s working definition of anti-Semitism is “a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews... also encompasses the “targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity”."
Al Jazeera: "US [Congress] passes controversial bill that expands definition of anti-Semitism".
And now, a report from eldiario.es in Spanish (1) on remarks made by Oxford academic Janina Dill (2) to the effect that the US, the UK and Germany are undermining the rule of international law by their support for Israel.
I can't find any record of her remarks in the UK media, perhaps that's because I'm an "extremist" #ScottishIndependence supporter?
Notice how quickly the FCDO moved to cover its arse with legal bullshit after the #ICC announcement, literally months after a Tory minister let the cat out of the bag about the UK Government receiving legal advice on #IsraelWarCrimes - legal advice they've effectively denied exists.
Let's face it, John Mason needs to cross over to one of the genocide enabling parties as soon as possible.
He'd be a perfect catch for the "progressive socialist Labour Party" especially after the great progressive socialist Natalie Elphicke was welcomed with open arms by #Captain_UTurn.
UK Deputy Foreign Secretary Andrew Mitchell at a Commons "Business & Trade Committee" defending the continuing sale of weapons to Israel.
The slippery mendacious patronising Tory shill doesn’t have a leg to stand on.
It's a classic demonstration of the barefaced casual contempt and ruthless cruelty with which the British Establishment treats everybody outside its privileged universe at home and abroad.
