just watched @SkyNews's report on israel and palestine, and the level they go to equate the actions of each is appalling. they said that 100 have been killed in gaza, and 8 killed in israel: including 2 children and 1 soldier. WHAT ABOUT THE 31 PALESTINIAN CHILDREN?! 1/6
no, they don't note that, because that stops their casus belli from being made. israel are defending themselves from palestinian attacks, and anything that deviates from that will be ignored. they described it as 4 days since israel began their retaliatory strikes. 2/6
RETALIATORY?! israel started this! they attacked people praying in their holy month, they tried to evict people from their homes, and that's only a couple of things: there are 100s! these are not retaliatory, they are offensive, and to think britain stands by as israel 3/6
genocides and apartheids. britain doesn't even recognise palestine! and we tell them to alleviate tensions. if you simply "alleviate tensions", you will go right back to the genocide and apartheid they were already committing. the land of the palestinians must be returned 4/6
if there is any hope of peace. and to think, we were so close to having corbyn- who would have recognised palestine on his first stay. my heart goes out the the palestinians suffering at the hand of israel and its allies #freepalastine #PalestineBleeding #IStandWithPalestine 5/6

last night, North Devon CLP had its CLP meeting. we passed a motion expressing support for palestine and asking for the resignation of keir starmer. please boost this if you see it, so people know that some people in the labour party are doing things 1/7
palestine motion: "As the Israeli government unleashes a wave of brutal attacks on the civilians of Palestine, this CLP resolves that the Labour Party should oppose any solutions not based on international law, and should reject any trade agreement and arms sales with... 2/7
Israel that fails to recognise Palestinian human rights. The Labour Party should condemn the actions of the Israeli government." 3/7

the tweet from @AmichaiStein1 read: "BREAKING: IDF set to approve plans for ground invasion of Gaza, IDF spokesperson says" or something along those lines
looks like he revised it, didn't want to actually call it an invasion as that would be unconscionable! israel doesn't invade places! they do "ground operations"
