It’s entirely disingenuous. They know full well it’s a famine of their own making and they know full well it’s a genocide. I*rael is based on cynical lying. It’s baked-in. Sole aim is to get away with it for long enough to make the next episode of ethnic cleansing irreversible.

Welcome sentiments, but without spelling out consequences of non-compliance, just more meaningless verbiage. "If I*rael does not restore food supplies, cease firing and abandon its planned concentration camp, we will..." THAT would be worthwhile. As it is... www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
UK and 24 other countries accuse Israel of depriving Gazans of ‘human dignity’
‘The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths,’ say foreign ministers

As I have just been reminded, any mention of this in BTL comments to the Guardian will be immediately censored.

Your regular reminder, given the upcoming oppressive proscription of Palestine Action, that Starmer's leadership of Labour was bought by I*rael before it even began: www.thecanary.co/uk/2020/04/1...
Keir Starmer received £50,000 donation from pro-Israel lobbyist in leadership bid

If you have time and inclination to read one analysis on the '12-day war', make it this from David Hearst: www.other-news.info/israels-fail...
Israel's failure to subdue Iran shows it can no longer dictate the regional order - Other News - Voices against the tide
By David Hearst* – Middle East Eye Tel Aviv has swapped an indirect enemy and sponsor of proxy militias for a direct enemy that has repeatedly sent Israeli citizens running for their bunkers. The Luft...

Drearily familiar propaganda in headline: "Israel’s strikes on Iran show Trump is unable to restrain Netanyahu." No president ever has the faintest glimmer of interest in 'restraining' I*rael. Regime is armed to the teeth to be US attack dog. Netanyahu is branch manager, Head Office = Washington.

Essential from ‪@jonathan-cook.bsky.social ‬: British state is persecuting @asawinstanley.com‬ for journalism. Gov't knows full well it is aiding and abetting I*raeli #genocideinpalestine against UK people's wishes. That's why it wants to silence truth-tellers like AW.

Chatham House regional director writes in Guardian in favour of sanctions on Israel: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Only ten years after I co-founded BDS Australia, after successfully defending my right to implement academic boycott, at Federal Court: www.haaretz.com/jewish/2014-...
Australian court drops racism case against professor who backs BDS
