Last night, Israel kidnapped people again. 145 people from all over the world, on the Mediterranean Sea. You know, the sea they’ve now made their own property. Didn’t you know?

The Conscience, a big boat filled with doctors, carrying painkillers and medical supplies, saw all its members kidnapped by the colonial state backed by the West. The sailboats around it were also attacked by those terrorists last night, of course.

Good analysis, but omits the main reason the current approach won't work. The whole time the Palestinians have been excluded. Hamas can only negotiate around the hostages and are told to give up their home-made weapons and disappear. Blair's an Iraq wrecker.

The fact that Starmer has done nothing demonstrates that he is on the same team as Farage to steer the UK towards corporatism/ fascism.

When the BBC board is stacked with genocidal fascists this is what happens. Fascist Starmer has done absolutely nothing to address it.

"this conflict is now so embedded and impervious to compromise that it can only be settled at the barrel of the gun, in essence through the repression or erasure of one side." Do you have an inkling which side that could possibly be, Guardian? Shame on you.
