While Germans are being attacked at a Christmas market, their diplomats are in Damascus establishing ties with a man who carried out countless attacks like this as a senior commander in ISIS and Al Qaeda. But the media are whitewashing him because Al Qaeda and ISIS are assets of Western intelligence. They don't care who is in power as long as they can take Syria's land, control its resources, and protect Zionism. Ironically, both the attacker in Germany and Jolani are from Saudi Arabia. Which is where Wahhabism, the extremist ideology that Al Qaeda and ISIS are based on, also comes. The Saudis continue to export this sectarian ideology with the full knowledge and support of the West.

The deadliest terrorist attack in history against British subjects was carried out by Zionists.

Never forget this fact.

Menachem Begin, responsible for the King David Hotel bombing, even became Israeli Prime Minister because Israeli society rewards violence. In 2006, the Israelis unveiled a plaque at the site of the King David Hotel to commemorate the attack.

A bit like if Al Qaeda would unveil a commemorative plaque at the site of the Twin Towers.

Netanyahu attended this celebration of terrorism.

Police: you have the right to tell someone you've been arrested

Me: yes, I'd like to do that

Police: Due to the nature of the alleged offense your calls are withheld

Me: but you just said I have the right to inform someone

Police: the right can be waived

Lol. Basically "shut your mouth, you have no rights". This is what their idea of "'counterterrorism" means and what laws like this lead to. Another great exchange:

Police: you have the right to know why you've been arrested

Me: yes, can you please tell me why. What is section 12 and what "prescribed orgs"? What is being alleged?

Police: we're just the arresting officers / you'll be told when you're questioned

Unfortunately, it seems we were not successful at denazifying Germans like this one

Yes, precisely. A ceasefire is just the first step. Then the settlers must return to their countries and hand over the land. All of it. We will accept nothing less. The fact that a ceasefire is so controversial and difficult for the West shows they are hell-bent on murder.

No Arabs were involved in the negotiation of a Partition Plan for Palestine. It was imposed. Then when the Palestinians signed Oslo, they got stabbed in the back and Israel said "no two state solution". Fine, but that goes both ways. When you annul a contract the other party is also released from it.

BREAKING: CCTV footage of Israeli soldiers gang-raping a Palestinian hostage at Sde Teiman published by Israel's Ch12

The soldiers put up their riot shields to hide their actions from the camera. (auto-translation to English)

You'll never guess.

The same judge from Assange's High Court hearings, Johnson, is the one that issued Tommy Robinson an arrest warrant— which only comes into effect in October, despite him being detained under the terrorism act and fleeing the country on the eve of his court date.

Can you imagine Assange being given special treatment like that? A delayed arrest warrant? Bail? House arrest? Being allowed to leave the UK? Assange, despite his failing health, was shown no mercy by any of the judges regarding bail or house arrest at any stage of court proceedings. The preferential treatment here is very clear, and baffling, given Robinson has helped promote racism and encouraged riots in England.

INVESTIGATION🧵: Israeli Olympic athletes are IDF soldiers. Many have called for genocide in Gaza, or expressed support for the IDF.

This violates the Olympic Charter which states that sports and politics cannot mix.

The evidence is staggering⬇️ Peter Paltchik, the Israeli flag bearer at the Paris Olympics, signed bombs that were about to be dropped on Gaza: “From me to you with pleasure.”

"Severely mistreated"

That's how the @BBCNews describe 9 IDF soldiers gang-raping a Palestinian hostage so bad that he had to be hospitalized.

They make a war crime sound like an altercation in a pub.

Well done covering for Israel's atrocities. You managed to be worse than last week when you covered for the Israeli army dog mauling Muhammad Bhar and then being left to bleed to death by IDF soldiers, alone-- someone with down syndrome who can't even take care of themselves without injury, let alone mauled. @BBCNews They do not even mention that the prisoner was sexually abused until halfway through the article. I'm not joking.

French police put Bashir Biazar in a camp for posting pro-Palestinian content. He's been there 3 weeks.

They want to deport him even though he's lived in France with his family for 2 years. They're smearing him, saying he is an Iranian agent, with 0 proof.

Help raise awareness. The French government will not even answer his lawyer. This is completely insane.

They are holding him under administrative detention, with no charges, and in a camp for illegal migrants, which is ridiculous given he resides legally in France.

LIVE THREAD:

Today, the High Court will decide whether to permit #Assange to appeal the UK's decision to extradite him to the US.
If denied, all of Assange’s legal avenues in Britain are exhausted, and he will appeal to the ECHR.

I am attending the hearing. Live updates below:

2) The US are seeking to extradite Wikileaks founder Julian Assange for publishing classified government documents. These documents exposed US war crimes in Afghanistan, Iraq, and beyond.

If extradited, he could be sentenced to 175 years in prison.

Why Hamas took hostages:

Under Oslo, Israel had to free Palestinians like Waleed Daqqa. That was In 1993. He died last week. Killed through deliberate medical negligence.

Thousands of Palestinian hostages are in Israeli dungeons, without charge or trial. The world didn't care. Waleed Daqqa wasn't held under administrative detention, but the fact Israel kept him in violation of Oslo, and then even after completing the 35 years of his life sentence! And on top of all this, denied him conjugal & family visits, or proper medical care.

BREAKING: Julian Assange has been granted limited leave to appeal by the High Court.

I have just been given the ruling and will provide more information below Before I include more points of order (the ruling is around 66 pages) this means that Assange has not exhausted his legal options in the United Kingdom, and may yet convince a court to stay and bar the extradition to the United States

There's no such thing as a "debate" about Israel. You don't debate theft. Theft is wrong.

Israelis are thieves. That's what colonialism is. This is not their land, and as long as they are there, there will be resistance. They will leave one day whether they like it or not. What Israel have done is ruin the Jewish communities in Arab countries. The Israelis, on purpose, created hostile environments toward Jews in Arab countries, specifically to make them leave to Israel. How do we return these communities now? This is the only question that matters.

Alas, Victoria Nuland resigns, her 10-year war against Russia a giant, pathetic flop.

My favorite moment was her trip to Niger last summer after the coup, expecting the red carpet treatment, and instead Tchiani refuses to meet and sends his adjutants.😂

Speaking of which, Putin ground Nuland and NATO's war against Russia to a total halt using well-placed, insurmountable fortifications. This is why the famed "spring counteroffensive" never came.

🧵THREAD: It's forbidden to say anything good about Yemen. If you do, the frauds calling themselves "fact-checkers" will descend on you to reinforce Western propaganda.

Take these two people, "Charlotte Green" and "Alex Demas" and their funny emails to me.

Yemen ensured the crew of a UK ship (RUBYMAR) got to safety after they had attacked it for violating the blockade. Crew were taken by a passing vessel to Djibouti, but that doesn't mean Yemen didn't help ensure their rescue. As I said, Yemen confirmed this in English & Arabic.

I support the 2 state solution:

Palestinians get Palestine, and israelis return to their original countries. It is a very selfish thing to be a Zionist: you leave your country to go take another person's country and then kick them while they're down

Many Israelis have dual citizenship. Those who don't can easily obtain nationality of their parents'/grandparents' countries & end the war

It is a serious attack on the press.
