Really pleased to be speaking at this demo on Sunday, 3pm in Whitehall.

Please join us to show your solidarity with Israelis protesting against the war and in support of democracy👇🏽

Ami Ayalon, former head of the Shin Bet, writing in the @theguardian.com asks Israel's friends and allies - gvts and diaspora Jewish communities - to join the struggle to end the war.

'be a friend of the Israeli people – and not its disastrous government.'

British Rabbis who have recently visited Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories with Yachad have released a statement regarding the increasing violence against Palestinian communities in the West Bank. @jewishnews.bsky.social

Those angrier with David Lammy
for calling out the Israeli gvt for denying aid than they are with over 2 million people being denied aid,

or claiming to support the hostages, but are ignoring their families who are against resumption of war,

…are all just on the side of Bibi.

Hostage Square this evening. 504 days of hell.

And 504 days of unbelievable resilience from the hostage families who have been fighting to bring their loved ones home.

Bring them all home, end the war & build a future where no-one ever has to live through a hell like this again

I wrote about Trump’s plan for Gaza for @lbc.co.uk

‘Those that are Israel’s closest friends and allies – in the international community and in Jewish communities worldwide - must call this what it is: ethnic cleansing.’

www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/view...

Forcible transfer of 2.5 million Gazans is now on the cards. We should take it at face value.

Those that claim to believe in a peaceful future for Israelis & Palestinians should call it out for what it is: ethnic cleansing.

Hard to really understand what’s been achieved.

As many new Hamas recruits as numbers killed, hostages being negotiated out rather than ‘won’ through military means.

The deal could have happened months ago saving lives of hostages & thousands of Palestinians. Unforgivable.

Happy Christmas and Chanukah to all those celebrating

This year I’ll be thinking of all of those celebrating under bombardment in Gaza and with their loved ones being held in tunnels.

And may our leaders be gifted with the wisdom this holiday season to finally end this hell

It is quite heroic and completely ludicrous you had to do that!

Hundreds of British Jews and Israelis are calling for the UK government to sanction far-right extremist Ministers Ben Gvir & Smotrich.

If you still need convincing, here’s why we must take action:

All the idiots proudly celebrating this today are also spewing with anger at the ICC decision because Israel ‘is a democracy’.

Democracies don’t try and kill the free press.

Today the ICC issued arrest warrants for Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, for alleged war crimes in Gaza.

Our full statement:

yachad.org.uk/iccnov24/

Legal to slaughter tens of thousands, not legal to talk about it

Netanyahu's aide is detained for leaking stolen intelligence which 'had the potential to do severe damage to Israel’s security...& harmed the war aim of freeing the hostages'

@jewishchron.bsky.social printed it. Hard to overstate the danger in what they did.

Don’t divide us. But if you must:

Thousands of Israelis continue to protest calling for an end to the war in Gaza and release of all hostages.

Tell the British Gvt: Sanction Ben Gvir & Smotrich NOW

These extremists at the heart of the Israeli gvt want to empty northern Gaza of Palestinians & resettle it.

PM Keir Starmer has already said he’s considering it but he must act now.
