I don't want to exaggerate the significance of this, as it was only a small queue, but at my usually sleepy polling station I did have to line up to vote for the first time.
Breaking: ICJ dismisses Israeli attempt to rule out the South African case of genocide against Palestinians on technical grounds –– i.e. the court rules it a fact that there is a dispute between SA and Isr. on the question.
Breaking: ICJ rules there's a prima facie case to answer in South Africa's genocide case against Israel.
Breaking: The ICJ judge is now running through the genocidal language of Israeli politicians.
Cites infamous statements by war minister Yoav Gallant on siege and "human animals," as well as president Isaac Herzog's "entire nation" bile.
Nasrallah: The Al-Aqsa Flood operation was 100% a decision of the Palestinian resistance alone, and we salute the secrecy in planning.
Nasrallah: Al-Aqsa Flood proved once again that the entity is weaker than a spider's web. There are now some Israelis who believe this too.
Nasrallah: Al-Aqsa Flood was the right, correct and courageous choice. The enemy was in a state of loss and confused. It seems they were all asleep. It took hours for Netanyahu, Gallant and the others to show their faces.
Gutted to announce: my Bristol book talk tomorrow has been postponed after senior Unite leaders (seemingly @UniteSharon & @gailcartmail themselves) intervened to block local activists and staff from hosting me at Tony Benn House. @AliAbunimah reports: electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abun…
Assistant general secretary @gailcartmail even had the chutzpah to smear my book in exactly the same terms as the Israel lobby, claiming it “has already caused deep hurt among Jews in Britain” and that it is "inflammatory."
Since when are unions not supposed not to debate "inflammatory" political topics just because it might hurt feelings?!
If unions can't even discuss controversial topics now, what even is the point of them?
With the student protest against @TzipiHotovely at LSE being roundly attacked by both the Israel lobby and the British government, here's a thread reminder of the Israeli ambassador's long record of far-right extremism 🧵👇
In May @TzipiHotovely was the star speaker at a Zionist demonstration in support of the Israeli embassy in London at which participants called for Palestinian villages to be burned and chanted in support of the genocidal Rabbi Meir Kahane electronicintifada.net/content/london…
Breaking: A leaked document shows that the lawyer @BristolUni instructed to investigate David Miller totally exonerated him of anti-Semitism or any other wrongdoing 🧵👇 electronicintifada.net/blogs/asa-wins…
The lawyer found that Professor David Miller "had no case to answer". Despite this @BristolUni bowed to the dictates of Israel and its lobby and fired him anyway.
The leaked document also proves that the complaint against Miller was instigated by Israel lobby groups the @CST_UK and @UJS_UK -- not by "terrified" students on campus.
Here's a few things detailed in my latest article, about Labour conference 🧵👇
Shadow foreign minister @lisanandy was given a massive round of applause by Labour Friends of Israel for undermining the @PSCupdates motion against Israeli apartheid
Addressing Labour Friends of Israel at their annual reception, @lisanandy promised the lobby group she would "always, always, always" stand with them -- and said the Corbyn era was a "nightmare" now ended
