Our mi-neged protest at the UK Foreign Office yesterday

Make no mistake. Those who spearheaded the Gaza genocide will try to relaunch it in a more ruthless manner, at the earliest opportunity.
They will fail only if there will be an alternative vision, one of recognition, life and equality for everyone.

After the anticipated and hoped for prisoners/hostage exchange, there will remain in Israeli prisons thousands more Palestinians than there had been there on 6th October 2023.

Two people in balaclavas torched a mosque in Peacehaven, East Sussex. This is not far from where I live.

Fascists are in an open war with Muslims and people of colour in the UK.

Here’s a comprehensive list of appropriate responses upon hearing that a man murdered worshippers at a synagogue:

1- this is fucked up, fuck that guy, fuck antisemitism, solidarity with the victims

2- see above

This is a perfectly appropriate message in response to a horrific event, and the responses to this post are filling me with sorrow.

I am sickened by today’s attack in Manchester. Antisemitism is on the rise around the world, and we must do all we can to stomp it out. I am grateful to first responders and congregants who showed incredible bravery, and I am praying for those who were killed.

This was a fascinating convo and I reckon diaspora folks - and not just members of the Palestinian diaspora - will learn a great deal

Chile is home to the largest Palestinian diaspora outside the MidEast, & Palestinians are present on both the right and the left

I talk to Pablu Abufom, activist with the Coordinadora por Palestina, on what that teaches us about the limits of a national project

Re-upping this thread today

I'm skeptical of the two-states framework, and I think French (and others') recognition of a Palestinian state is not a remotely sufficient step in stopping the starvation and annihilation of Gaza.

However, this is not a meaningless step.

Elizabeth Tsurkov, for me, is an example of a rare Jewish Israeli who decided to embrace the Middle East as her home, immersed itself in Arabic language and culture, struggled and put herself at risk for justice and liberty for people in Palestine, Syria and Iraq. She's a model of how things can be.

Regardless of whether Reform's deportation plan "works", if they get a chance to try it - like the Tories' Rwanda policy, or Trump's deportations - it will ostentatiously torment thousands of people and further engrain racism in British politics. It must be opposed on that basis.

At least 15 people killed, including 4 children, in the latest Russian missile and drone attack on Kyiv, says Ukraine Interior Ministry. And EU mission and British Council buildings were damaged. Biggest attack since Trump met Putin, and one of the deadliest attacks this year.

1/ Why are Trump and Putin talking ceasefire without Europeans? Some facts in thread:

Despite the shifting frontlines, prolonging the war at terrible human cost, there has been little territorial gain by either side and fundamental realities have not budged.

This is a good companion piece to the Foreign Affairs article I shared yesterday, as it tries to provide a materialist analysis as to why the anti-Netanyahu alliance failed to become an anti-war one, and extended support for genocide. jacobin.com/2025/08/war-...
How War Became Israel’s New Normal
It is a mistake to think that Benjamin Netanyahu is solely responsible for Israel’s genocide or that removing him would bring it to an end. To win support for war, he has mobilized large swathes of Is...

This piece, by @dahliasc.bsky.social, gives a very good and accurate overview of how right wing Israeli public opinion has become over the past decade, and why Netanyahu is not an outlier. These are my takeaways - and differences.
