We may be exhausted by 13 months of lies, disinformation and smears. But we're not voiceless, or powerless. Our leaders seek to bully us into silence because they fear what we have to say
Just to clarify. Was Starmer at the ICJ speaking to prove the case for genocide? Was that the matter at hand?
I ask because I do not hear or read of him actually saying ' I am defining what I'm describing as genocide' or words to that affect. It's not that I don't think what he's describing sounds like that's what he's doing or that the actions in Croatia were found by international court trial to be genocide.
Just wanted clarification if he was speaking as a lawyer to prosecute on behalf of a case for genocide.
Thank you Jonathan. The time has come for us to produce a comprehensive list of collaborators from a field of politicians, diplomats, religious leaders, industrialists and companies, journalists, lawyers and law firms, defence contractors and consultants, military and police, financiers and all who have played a role in the genocide that is taking place in Palestine, especially Gaza and now also in Lebanon. It will be a warning that a record of individuals and companies is being prepared when accountability will be demanded of them. The world needs people like you, Mehdi Hasan, the Declassified Team of journalists and Al Jazeera to expose the scourge of this world.
The powers that be are brazen. They've learnt that they can get away with the most outrageous lies and that really there's nothing we, the voters can or will do about it.
At one time they seemed a bit more wary ..... wanted our votes.... so trod a bit more carefully or at least had better lies.
But something changed, not sure what .... but they really aren't at all worried about what any of us thinks or wants any more.
Once again, you express in words the horror and righteous anger we all feel. Thank you for being tireless on the side of Gaza, its children, its women and all its innocent citizens. With every fibre of my being I know what Israel is doing is wrong, and I can only hope that they and their apologists will be brought to justice as speedily as possible. Thank you, Jonathan.
Starmer’s behaviour like most leaders in the ‘democratic’ west is baked into the system of governance that has evolved into a weaponised capitalist economic ecosystem.
Thank you Jonathan as always. And what can we say about the recent story of criminals within Gaza who hijacked numerous lorries carrying aid into Gaza and thus denying it to the population (or maybe intending to sell it to whoever has money)? They succeeded because Hamas's forces of order were so depleted that, initially, they weren't able to arrest the culprits. Great news for Israel because it proved that aid was getting in, but wasn't reaching those who most needed it. But in reality, what else is going to happen when all the policemen have been murdered? The IDF murders not only policemen, but surgeons, nurses, journalists, teachers, even the bureaucrats who assemble statistics of the dead. And, of course, thousands and thousands of children.
And now Sharif Abdel Kouddous reports in Drop Site News that the gangs hijacking these lorries are actively assisted by IDF troops. You couldn't make it up.
I can see no reason why the arrest and prosecution of British officials, including the present and preceding Prime Ministers, should not now be pursued as a matter of urgency. Can a private prosecution be mounted under UK law? If not, an ad hoc tribunal should be formed, made up of senior scholars in the legal profession, former UN appointees, a moral philosopher or two, and other worthy figures.
Starmer and his like have been BOUGHT and PAID to NOT say anything negative about Israel. Nothing. It is very simple. They are the most deplorable people, having literally "sold their souls".
I doubt they need to be paid, at least not in the "quid pro quo" sense. Rather, they know what their American Master expects, and their knees resolutely hit the floor when Master snaps his fingers.
An invitation to YOU to shut your mouth, get off your bucket and come fight!
Hi, I'm Dean Maughvet, a Jewish settler living in occupied Palestine.
Shortly, my comrades and I are going to launch a full-scale ethnic cleansing operation against the local Arab population.
If you give a damn, come do something about it!
Join your local army.
Or the French Foreign Legion.
Or ISIS.
Just stop with all the talk.
Show some integrity.
And prove you actually believe what you say.

Oh, OK...

Law is meaningless. Enforcement is the only thing that matters.
Does not Finster's Second Law read thusly: "There is no such thing as law. There is only context."?
Starmer and his like have been BOUGHT and PAID to NOT say anything negative about Israel. Nothing. It is very simple. They are the most deplorable people, having literally "sold their souls".

Absolutely agree with you, once you have sold your soul, there is nothing left of morality
Thank you for shining a light on these unspeakably evil politicians and their genocidal actions.
