Nah, you’re full of shit. Fuck off with your lies.

Israel have been unlawfully incarcerating approximately 10,000 Palestinians. Absolute war criminal behaviour from the settler colonial genocidal state.

Note when you’re watching the news today they will talk of the release of the Israeli HOSTAGES and the Palestinian PRISONERS. And before you claim it’s because of what happened on Oct 7th, some of those held captive by Israel were held from BEFORE Oct 7th.

These losers protesting against immigrants outside hotels are the modern day equivalent of the racist losers from back in the 60s. Modern day racism, dressed up as other concerns.

Very sad news. 😔 Especially considering his recent past with his ex-Mastodon bandmates.

Israel are showing no signs of ending their horrific genocide against the Palestinian people. In fact, they are moving onto a new stage. Moving em out of Gaza & the West Bank and moving their own in. If you haven’t paid any attention so far, don’t think there’s no point. Our humanity relies on it. 🇵🇸

A graphic of 2 people talking to each other.

One asks:
“I didn't hear about the g*nocide in Gaza for a while. Is it finally over?”

The other replies:
“No, they just k*lled all the journalists who report on it.”

Israel murdered more in Gaza in 50 days than all Israelis combined killed by Palestinians in 25 years.

Al Jazeera reporter Anas Al Sharif has been killed in a targeted Israeli strike on a tent known to host journalists.

Israel has killed more journalists than died in WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Afghanistan & Yugoslavia COMBINED.

This is Anas’ last tweet.

RIP 🇵🇸

⚠️ To Whom It May Concern,
The occupation is now openly threatening a full-scale invasion of Gaza.

For 22 months, the city has been bleeding under relentless bombardment from land, sea, and air.
Tens of thousands have been killed, and hundreds of thousands wounded.

If this madness does not end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people's voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.

Please share this message and tag everyone who has the power to help end this massacre. Silence is complicity.

When I heard Liam Neeson say he had never heard of a Fifteen I thought “aye, your fella has been away from home too long” but apparently lots in NI (mostly west of the Bann?) haven’t heard of them? What the hell!?!?

The British establishment are trying to distract you by crying about a musical act at Glastonbury. All while our government using our tax money is funding this. Future generations will ask you what you done when the genocide was going on.
