Call on Pope Leo XIV to do whatever it takes to save Gaza and stop the bombing, and end the starvation. Let him go to Gaza and stand with the suffering people who are being massacred by Israel and the Western posers. He can go to Gaza right now, and insist aid be allowed in. Then on to the West Bank to end the occupation and apartheid.

Is there anything more important in today's world than this?

Yes. Happening almost every week. The elderly are sacrificing themselves to allow younger people to look after their children and jobs.

The silver lining in all this is that two megalomaniacs in the form of Trump and Netanyahu have no restraint, no filters, as they inadvertently show the dark side of their respective governments which has remained hidden for many decades. Starmer is just an ass wipe.

Indeed Jeff. We have massive awareness of their evil but now we need people to rise up to stop it once and for all.

More important than ever that the search for justice continues! The work that the Hind Rajab Foundation is doing to track down and bring Israeli criminals to justice is one that is vital in the effort to hold Israel accountable.  Let us hope they will also turn their sights on the criminal leaders of the countries of the west who are co-perpetrators of these crimes.

Find out what they’re doing here:

It is despicable. We must stop Israel, because Israel will not stop

"Democracy" (read: fascism) in action. Many thanks to this clear-headed and kind-hearted gentleman.

powerful. but how strange that "democracy" has become more important that the sacredness of life itself.

No surprise. Sir Keir Starmer didn't get his "Sir" by fighting for democracy.

What was the pretext for the arrest?

Celine C.'s avatar

He was carrying a sign that said: "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."

That makes him a "terrorist" under current UK law.
