Good to have some actual engagement on the issues. I will reply to each in turn below.

The evidence supports a managed massacre as the most likely explanation of the Douma incident. We cannot say who carried out the massacre. People dressed as White Helmets were involved in dealing with the bodies of the victims.

@im_PULSE @MaherBarotchi @mhmadallan @syrianviews @sarah131214 @PiersRobinson1 @AlysEliza @Tim_Hayward_ @OborneTweets @marydejevsky @bbclysedoucet @alextomo @ClarkeMicah @CraigMurrayOrg @dancohen3000 @MaxBlumenthal @jimmy_dore @Jonathan_K_Cook @JohnWight1 @johnpilger @NeilClark66 @afshinrattansi @SecureBio 3.1 Obviously we do not make such an assertion about 'the dead in Syria'. We conclude that for Douma 2018, the evidence favours a managed massacre of captives.

However, they were careless enough to upload another video showing the same individuals as captives in their hands. Ursula was the first to spot this.
@im_PULSE @MaherBarotchi @mhmadallan @syrianviews @sarah131214 @PiersRobinson1 @AlysEliza @Tim_Hayward_ @OborneTweets @marydejevsky @bbclysedoucet @alextomo @ClarkeMicah @CraigMurrayOrg @dancohen3000 @MaxBlumenthal @jimmy_dore @Jonathan_K_Cook @JohnWight1 @johnpilger @NeilClark66 @afshinrattansi @SecureBio 4. We have not stated that MI6 has been staging chemical attacks in Syria. We have noted that there is strong evidence that the Talmenes incident was staged, and that MI6 was involved in providing evidence to the FFM from this staged attack.
@im_PULSE @MaherBarotchi @mhmadallan @syrianviews @sarah131214 @PiersRobinson1 @AlysEliza @Tim_Hayward_ @OborneTweets @marydejevsky @bbclysedoucet @alextomo @ClarkeMicah @CraigMurrayOrg @dancohen3000 @MaxBlumenthal @jimmy_dore @Jonathan_K_Cook @JohnWight1 @johnpilger @NeilClark66 @afshinrattansi @SecureBio 5.1 All relevant witness statements should be evaluated. On Talmenes, we have strong evidence that the witness statements are false because they describe an event - a barrel bomb impact at Location #1 - the JIM's expert concluded couldn't have happened as described.
@im_PULSE @MaherBarotchi @mhmadallan @syrianviews @sarah131214 @PiersRobinson1 @AlysEliza @Tim_Hayward_ @OborneTweets @marydejevsky @bbclysedoucet @alextomo @ClarkeMicah @CraigMurrayOrg @dancohen3000 @MaxBlumenthal @jimmy_dore @Jonathan_K_Cook @JohnWight1 @johnpilger @NeilClark66 @afshinrattansi @SecureBio 5.2 Where OPCW investigators did not themselves select witnesses, the credibility of the witnesses depends critically on how they were selected. For Talmenes 2014 the FFM gives no information on witness selection. For Sarmin 2015 witnesses were selected by CVDCS/Same Justice.
@im_PULSE @MaherBarotchi @mhmadallan @syrianviews @sarah131214 @PiersRobinson1 @AlysEliza @Tim_Hayward_ @OborneTweets @marydejevsky @bbclysedoucet @alextomo @ClarkeMicah @CraigMurrayOrg @dancohen3000 @MaxBlumenthal @jimmy_dore @Jonathan_K_Cook @JohnWight1 @johnpilger @NeilClark66 @afshinrattansi @SecureBio 5.3 We have not stated that witnesses to these incidents were supplied by anyone linked to MI6. We are still investigating the organizations reported to have identified witnesses

All witness statements, whatever medium they appear on, should be evaluated to weigh the evidence. In the case of the Douma hospital witnesses, we can compare their statements with what was shown in the video.

Our investigation is continuing.

We have not made any such assertion. Our briefing note of 9 May 2018 cast doubt on the UK government’s argument that only Russia had a motive for the attack on the Skripals. Have a look.

Yael Kahn the Jewish anti-Zionist campaigner has been dragged to the police station in London apparently from trying to talk to people about the genocidal Zionist cult that is Chabad-Lubavitch.

Among her alleged crimes is talking about Chabad on the Crispin Flintoff Show -
@CrispinShow.

There’s a clip of her speaking with Crispin below.

In support of Yael, it seems a good idea to talk lots more about Chabad. I will, therefore, start a short thread 🧵 on the vile genocidal organisation below.

Crispin is doing a livestream in this from 9:30am this morning. Details to follow.

Yael Kahn 'under caution' for calling out Chabad youtu.be/UDyB2C-wZtw?si… via @YouTube
First here is Yael talking to camera before going into Islington Police Station:

Watch Yael Kahn deliver her speech outside Islington Police Station where she has been summoned for an "interview" under caution for "trying to influence... opinions... hand out flyers regarding the Chabad".

Here is a video produced by the genocidal Chabad cult itself on its role in supporting the genocidal IOF.

Seems like we need to start a thread on rape, sexual abuse, paedophilia, sexual consent, pornograhy and the like in relation to Zionist colonists in Palestine, and perhaps elsewhere.

🧵

Here's an old piece from Vice magazine from 2013 to start.
vice.com/en/article/the…
And here is Tim Anderson reporting on the case of settlements minister Orit Strook:

Colonists abuse their own children. Shoshana, the daughter of Israeli settlements minister Orit Strook, has filed a police complaint of rape by both her parents. They are also said to have filmed the rape for use as child pornography.
This is a translation from Hebrew of a report the other day by Israel Hayom a Zionist newspaper.

Palestine Solidarity Campaign shills for the Zionists.

🧵

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign has taken it upon itself to try and ban me - and other anti-Zionists -  from speaking at public meetings up and down the country. In aid of this absurd campaign of censorship it has taken to pressuring and threatening its local groups.

I am aware of several attempts to do this.

First was the Hastings and Rye group who - to their credit - did not buckle under the pressure to disinvite me and to avoid and then remove posting a copy of my speech on the local group website.

Next there was Bristol where the local group (and the local Stop the War group) unilaterally withdrew from the Bristol Palestine Alliance in a row in part over whether I should be allowed to speak at a demo in Bristol.  Other elements of the dispute involved objecting to Huda Ammori (@HudaAmmori) from Palestine Action (@Pal_action ) and Lowkey (@Lowkey0nline) as speakers.

No doubt there have been other incidents, but the most recent was Chelmsford where the pressure was so bad that the group unilaterally decided to resign from PSC. 

The PSC in London attempted to enforce the no platform position by circulating a briefing they had compiled on things I had said.  This was then developed and circulated to all branches and was discussed at a national branch meeting a couple of weeks ago, taking up most of the time allocated for the meeting, by all accounts.

The document was four pages long and the purpose of this piece is to respond to the claims made in it.

Before we get into the detail one thing to bear in mind is that this type of response is due in part to the fact that the Left in the UK had been played by Zionists in the anti-racist movement for decades. 

Genocidal Zionists associated with Revisionist Zionist movement were involved in the creation of the ‘anti-fascist’ movement in this country as I have revealed in earlier reporting. 

This particular group (called the '43 Group) then (in 1948) affiliated en bloc with the Irgun the group responsible for the King David Hotel bombing and which was involved in 1947 and 1948 in terror attacks against British interests in Palestine and indeed in the UK itself.

Since then the British anti-racist movement has faced the difficulty of accommodating Zionists in order to create a ‘united front’. This has been true since the 1970s in Rock Against Racsim and the Anti-Nazi League and it has remained the case ever since, in groups like Unite Against Fascism and today Stand Up To Racism.  The problem with allowing Zionists to be involved in leadership positions is that it always comes with a price. That price includes avoiding, or soft pedalling, the fact that Zionism is a form of racism. A second element is that of adopting a strategy of opposing ‘fascism’ when the main form of racism in British Society is state and institutional racism against Black people, the Irish and latterly especially Muslims. Jews are not the victims of either state or institutional racism in the UK today.

It is a truly extraordinary fact that the Anglo-Left continues to feel so burdened by appeasing the sensibilities of the genocidaires of the Zionist movement.Image

The PSC makes four explicit points in its briefing. Which I will deal with in turn.

The first point:
'In August 2023, Miller wrote that Jews are “over-represented” with the “power to make economic, political and cultural decisions,” implying a collective Jewish control over “all areas of British public life.” This line of thinking invites the question, what should be the policy response to ‘solve’ such “over-representation”?'

The answer to the question posed here is that anti-racists want to abolish inequality - to dismantle racism. Surely any anti-racist group wants to do the same unless they want Muslims, Arabs and Palestinians always to be second class citizens? Do I imply a ‘collective Jewish control’?  No, I say that Zionist power and influence is obviously enhanced by the fact that Jews are, on average, relatively privileged in society.  It’s notable that the briefing cites a few words from one or two tweets on this topic.  Some months ago I wrote a five part series of articles debunking the various arguments made against my discussion of factual data about the social location of the Jews and how this might relate to the power of Zionism.

Not a single line from any of those articles is cited in the PSC briefing.   For the record, below is a summary of each article and a link to the original.

THREAD 🧵

Jolani's ISIS forces have committed new massacres across Syria in the past 24hrs. Some of these scenes are reminiscent of the tragedy at Sabra and Shatila in 1982, when another Zionist proxy force slaughtered thousands of Palestinians in Lebanon.

This time the Zionist proxy force is in Syria, led by Abu Muhammad al-Jolani. His regime forces rampaged through Syria last night and this morning, singling out 'Alawi civilians for mass execution. This thread shows the horrific evidence of those massacres.

These murderous monsters are the product of a 15-year regime change war on Syria by the Zionist state, NATO, the GCC and Turkey. The blood is on their hands, as well as their ISIS shock troops.

Each of the posts below adds something to the picture. Apologies from the brutality of some of the imagery.

So, as predicted, there was some pushback on the idea that Iran is an essential support for the Palestinian Resistance.

As I have consistently said, if you want to know what the relationship is between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Palestinian Resistance, then you could hardly do better than to ask the Palestinian Resistance.

In the thread below 🧵are many statements from the leaders of Hamas (including Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh, Saleh Al-Arouri), Palestinian Islamic Jihad (Ziad Al Nakhalah) and even one from Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah the late General Secretary of Hizballah.

Amongst the things they say are:

*They refer to Iran as 'our brothers' who give the resistance 'exceptional support';
*Iran are the 'main supporters' of the Palestinian Resistance;

*Iran 'assisted us with rockets and supported us financially and technically in developing the rockets of the resistance that were fired at Tel Aviv. Without its support, the resistance would not have attained such military capabilities at a time when the [Arab] nation has deserted us.';

*'Advancement from stones to missiles was achieved thanks to the grace of Allah and ... first and foremost the Islamic Republic of Iran and Hizballah';

*'Everyone knows that the brother Qassem Soleimani and the brothers in the Islamic Republic of Iran ... sent [military] aid to Gaza using [their] diplomatic relations – for example, their relations with Sudan. Things came to the point where Israeli planes bombed factories or weapons storehouses in Sudan... because they are storehouses for weapons, ammunition and missiles to be sent later, by various and diverse means, to the Gaza Strip.';

*'All the conventional weapons reached [Gaza] via Al-Hajj Qassem Soleimani, Hizballah, and Syria, and the entire [resistance] axis played a part in transporting them'.;

*'The mujahideen in Gaza and in Lebanon use Iranian weapons to strike the Zionists. We buy our weapons with Iranian money. An important part of our activity is under the supervision of Iranian experts. The contours of the victories in Palestine as of late were outlined with the blood of Qassem Soleimani, Iranian blood.';
*'I can not but thank those who brought forth money and weaponry to the valiant resistance. The Islamic Republic of Iran; who did not hold back with money, weapons and technical support. Thanks.';

*'the weapons that the Palestinians use for fighting come from Iran — the Iranians either pay for these weapons or provide them. This has been going on for thirty years.'

The time for maturity and more sophisticated analysis of the possibilities and pathways to decolonise Palestine is most definitely upon us.

#DismantleZionism
1. Saleh Al-Arouri, deputy head of Hamas' political bureau, 22 October 2017.

"We and our brothers in Iran share solid ground, on the basis of which we can always build and develop our relations. This principle has two parts. First of all, the Islamic Republic has adopted the Palestinian cause, and it supports the rights of our Palestinian people on their entire land, and it rejects any form of Zionist presence on the land of Palestine. Iran is acting in line with this principle. Secondly, we in Hamas have a firm and clear position: we refuse to accept anyone's participation in our land and our cause. Our people and our nation have an indisputable and full right to Palestine, and the resistance is a right and a duty that we will never relinquish."

"We have come to Iran on an official and public visit, partly as a response to [Netanyahu's] rude and arrogant interference [in our affairs], when he demanded that we sever [ties with Iran]. He cannot determine our foreign relations. We will not accept any dictates from him. So in addition to the need to consult with and update our brothers [in Iran] about the developments, this is also a response to the occupation's arrogant demand that we need to sever our ties with Iran.

"It is well known that Iran supported the Lebanese resistance, until the Israeli occupation was driven out. It supports the resistance in Palestine as well. They make no secret of this. They give us exceptional support. The resistance is in dire need of this to be able to confront the aggression of the Israeli entity. Therefore, the issue of Iran's continued and increased aid and support for the Palestinian people, our cause, and the Palestinian resistance is the main issue that we are discussing with the brothers in Iran."

"Of course, we cannot go into the details of the aid that Iran gives us, but in general, the public knows what aid Iran provides to Palestine and its resistance. There are some things that are out in the open. For example, the Al-Qassam Brigades declared, more than once, that the main supporters of the Brigades and of the resistance in the confrontation with the occupation are the brothers in Iran. It is our hope that this aid will continue and intensify, until the resistance is able to defeat the occupation, Allah willing."
2. Yahyah Sinwar, Hamas leader in Gaza, 25 December 2017.

"Qassem Soleimani contacted the commanders of the Al-Qassam [Brigades] and with the commanders of the Al-Quds Brigades, as was published in the news. The reports were correct. But then, the Zionist media and some pro-Zionist media outlets tried to put these contacts in the wrong context.

The man contacted [us] and stressed that Iran, the IRGC, and the Al-Quds Force stand, with all their capabilities, alongside our people, in defense of Jerusalem, and in order to keep Jerusalem the capital of the State of Palestine… He said clearly: We place all our capabilities at your disposal in the battle for the defense of Jerusalem. He did not ask, set conditions, or encourage us to employ any specific type of resistance.

Let me tell you something. I sat with the man when I visited Tehran in 2012. I saw a man who loves Palestine, loves Jerusalem, and loves anything that could bolster the steadfastness of our people."
