Well, a very modest 3/10 this week, but the questions were, I think, a little more difficult than usual, looking at political journalist John Rentoul, who scored zero. I only knew the answers to questions 1, 4, and 10. I thought that I knew number 7 as well but, as football fans say, I “hit the post” and was mistaken.
In the 21st century, Israel is committing genocide in front of the eyes of the whole world and we are all watching like watching a movie. Someone should stop this!!!#starlinkforgazahttps://t.co/KVcaq8oBgd
The suffering and terror of the Gazan people is terrible. Two million civilians, half of them children or teenagers. The animal population, including cats, is also there, suffering with them..
Meanwhile the fanatical Jew-Zionists (though a small minority of all Jews currently resident here in the UK) cheer on “their” state of Israel as it does such terrible actions; the same also whine that they themselves are “in fear” from, it seems, people disapproving of them and Israel.
May her face & her words haunt all those who enabled, supported and cheered the genocide of Palestinians
Of course, until 1948 Palestine was under British (international Mandate) rule, but as soon as Israel was proclaimed as a state, there began the mass killings, ethnic cleansing etc known as the Nakba. Seizure of land, houses, and apartments from Palestinian Arabs by Jews. It still continues, though more gradually. The Jews also punish the families and relatives of Palestinian activists or operatives by demolishing their homes.
Massive amounts of oil have been discovered off of Gaza
International law says that oil belongs to Palestine not Israel
Readers of the blog are advised that I was expelled from Twitter in 2018, after a long campaign against me by the “usual suspects” (Jews connected to the fake “charity” known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”). I have therefore not posted on Twitter/X since mid-2018.
I now see that one of the several people on Twitter/X with the same name as me (Ian Millard) is posting comment related to political and other matters. His account is “@IanMillard100”. I have no reason to believe that he is deliberately posing as me, but it occurs to me that some readers might imagine that he is me. In a word, no.

It’s so weird that a world that has persecuted, despised, murdered, mistreated & exiled Jews for over 2 thousand years is hostile to Israel.
Why, I wonder, have Jews been so disliked and/or despised over the centuries? Why have so many great composers, writers, poets, political leaders etc been “antisemites”? It’s certainly a puzzle…

I have no idea whether that is so, but the Israeli forces have always been very trigger-happy, and never seem to care about the casualties of their callousness, so maybe the Israelis just opened fire on both their Palestinian targets and, as “collateral damage”, anyone who was in the vicinity.
Israel, a state created out of the sweepings of the ghettoes of Europe and elsewhere, a state created largely by terrorism and intimidation, theft of land, and ethnic cleansing. Now we see the result.

“American aircraft carriers will not scare anyone in the Middle East, says Ritter.
Washington sent two aircraft carrier groups to the Mediterranean and Red Sea. But their presence will not change the situation in the Middle East and will not impress adversaries, US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter said in an interview with the Judging Freedom YouTube channel.
In his opinion, the forces that the Pentagon is deploying in the region will not be able to have a significant impact on the brewing hostilities. They will not be able to intimidate Iran, Hezbollah, or even the militants who are launching attacks on American bases in Iraq and Syria.
“This is just posturing. In this way, the United States is trying to create the appearance of activity, while behind the scenes it is desperately trying to get Israel to defuse the situation and not invade the Gaza Strip,” Ritter explained.”

We are now learning that between 3000-4000 Palestinians came from Gaza to commit the massacres and NOT all were members of the Hamas terror organization. That means regular Gazans came with Hamas and committed these brutalities. What kind of society breeds people who behave like…
If some Gazans are monstrous, they have been made monstrous, and made so by Israel, by Israeli Jews, almost all of which undertake military service, including keeping the Palestinians imprisoned in Gaza and other parts of former Palestine.
The Israeli narrative now is, in effect, “Hamas operatives entered southern Israel a few weeks ago, killing hundreds of Israelis. Most of the attackers were killed or captured, but we have bombed and rocketed, and will now continue to rocket and bomb, Gaza, killing tens of thousands directly. We have also switched off most supplies to Gaza of water, food, electricity, and gas, which may kill hundreds of thousands directly and indirectly. We also intend to use poison gas. We are the victims (always)...”

“Ukrainians demand answers from Zelensky about missing soldiers, writes New York Times Last week, hundreds of Ukrainians who came to Kyiv from different parts of the country staged a demonstration near the office of Vladimir Zelensky.
Those gathered chanted his name and demanded that he bring their loved ones home from the front, writes The New York Times. The protest was a “rare display” of discontent.
Despite the fact that cemeteries across Ukraine are steadily filling up, there is almost no open criticism of the authorities’ actions. But the pain and losses accumulate, the publication notes. Relatives of missing Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers are growing increasingly frustrated that the government, which fears a decline in morale in society, is unable to give them concrete answers.
Some demonstrators admitted to The New York Times that they had been trying to obtain this information for more than a year without success, and asked reporters to write down the names of their sons.”

We received a threat via phone call from the Israeli occupation threatening the destruction of the main Gaza Municipality building in Palestine Square.
We confirm that the main municipal building is the headquarters of the main administration of the municipality, and it is a building that was built about 200 years ago.
The building contains the city’s documents and archives, and implementing the occupation’s threats to bomb it would plunge the city into a state of great chaos.
We call on all international and humanitarian organizations to intervene urgently and curb the occupation.”

While I doubt that Aaron Bastani, Ash Sarkar etc are themselves proponents of a “free society” anyway, the fact is that an editor, a Jew at that, has been dismissed for noting the callousness of (I presume, not having read the material) Israel and the Jews and others outside Israel who regard the victims of the attack on the Gaza “Ghetto” as “collateral damage”, in some cases expressly.
You see that attitude in tweets by some of the unpleasant Jews in the UK prolific on Twitter/X.
The editor in question lives and works in the USA, with its supposed regard for “free speech”. However, as I have blogged in the past, while that U.S. Constitutional protection may save someone from being arrested and/or prosecuted, it does not save someone from being dismissed from a job, or removed from a profession (perhaps), and so (in a finance-capitalist society) possibly losing his place of abode, quite possibly also his family life etc.
Needless to say, the mainstream media, publishing etc are completely owned or controlled by Jews in the USA (and UK, for that matter), and even where not, strongly influenced by Jew-Zionism.

Basically both a parasite and a criminal. A completely useless individual from the point of view of British society.
That is one migrant-invader out of literally millions. She has been sheltered and fed (etc) by the British people (through their taxes), and now large further monies have been spent on her investigation, prosecution, trial, defence, possible appeal, and costs of imprisonment. Then, after her eventual release, more monies spent on her shelter, food, etc. That is only ONE migrant-invader, out of millions.
The best you can hope for is that they are just useless; many are far worse.

A massacre is being covered up, Gaza needs internet.@elonmusk you must provide the Gaza Strip with satellite internet, just as you did with the Ukrainians.#starlinkforgaza#Gazabombing
The Israelis say that they have proven that Hamas has been using some areas in or below hospitals in Gaza as HQ and staff centres, and that that fact (if it is a fact) gives Israel the right to flatten such hospitals (after —sometimes— telephoning a hypocritical “warning”).
Decent people(s) would of course still not bomb such hospitals, knowing that civilians, many of them mere children, are there. The Israelis not only “disagree”; I do not think that they (and their Jewish supporters in countries such as the UK) actually see the inhumanity in that reasoning.

“Let’s talk about rape in France. We all know who is doing the raping, so we don’t have to talk about that. But, let’s prove it by numbers.
In 1971, the rate of declared rapes in France stood at 2.0 cases per 100,000 people. In 2015, when the “great migration” started the rape rate for France was 20.1 cases per 100,000 people.Today, they’re sitting at 39.59 cases per 100,000 people. You’re looking at nearly 94,000 reported rapes a year. About 5,000 to 7,000 of those rapes are gang rapes.
The other day, some migrant raped a 93 year old woman and a 95 year old woman while they were in a hospital.
Yet, many young liberal French women are still encouraging the illegal migration to continue. Do they think they’ll be passed over when a migrant randomly gets horny for something and they’re in arms distance? None of it has to be this way.“
Eventually, what has to be done will be done, but how many White Northern European people will have to suffer and die before the iron necessity happens?

They really do want to throw away any chance of keeping voters,cut pensioners allowance that they have already worked and contributed to society, but increase the amount of refugees and asylum seekers who contribute nothing
If the Triple Lock is cut down, weaselled away, effectively abandoned, legions of State Pensioners will lash back at the “Conservative” Party. People aged 66+ years are the mainstay of the Con Party (both as voters and as members); if they go, the Con Party has no chance at the 2024 General Election and no future beyond that.
That's what it looks like. They've pressed the self destruct button.
The Con Party (a far more accurate name than “Conservative”) is currently running at 25% in the opinion polls. The proportion of people of 65+ years in the UK is around 19%. The proportion of people aged 60+ is around 23%. Most of both categories vote Conservative. If even half of those abstain, or vote elsewhere, the nationwide Con Party vote might be as low as 15%, or even lower, and the number of Con Party seats after 2024 might be as few as 16 (Labour seats 548).
The two main System parties are both now without purpose. I had thought, a few years ago, that Labour would collapse first. Turns out that it will be the Con Party. Much as I despise most of the Labour MPs, particularly the Shadow Cabinet, and especially Israel puppet Starmer, the Con Party MPs have forfeited the right to live (speaking metaphorically and politically). Completely useless.
Incidentally, despite my now being (since 2022) a State Pensioner myself (hard for me to believe though that is), my views are not much coloured by that. I only receive about a half-pension anyway, having spent so many years overseas.
History comes full circle. Even a Jewish (albeit apparently anti-Zionist) tweeter has echoed my view that the attack on Gaza is most similar to the Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto by German forces in 1943.
[Jews being led out of the Warsaw Ghetto by Waffen-SS men, 1943]
The German forces of 1943, mostly Waffen-SS, did not use poison gas in attacking the Warsaw Ghetto, and fought against the Jews (many of them armed) on the ground.
On that basis, the Jewish/Israeli attack on Gaza and its 2 million civilians is far more extreme than the German attack on the Warsaw Ghetto.
The Jews/Israelis are using massive air power to demolish whole neighbourhoods in Gaza. Now, if the Middle East Eye and Daily Telegraph reports are accurate, it seems that the Jews/Israelis may use poison gas (from what I have read somewhere or other —admittedly unverified— a cyanide compound similar to the “notorious” Zyklon B) to gas both Hamas operatives and unarmed civilians hiding below ground, and/or will use chemical “sponge bombs” to fill those tunnels, asphyxiating those in them.
History is more than ironic at times.
Having said that, we on the outside must just wait to see what happens. “In war, truth is the first casualty“…

As soon as the Israelis started the present round of their repeated slaughter of the population of Gaza, up popped Rachel Riley (and a few other Jews and Jewish organizations, such as the tiny but well-funded “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) to threaten, on Twitter/X, anyone opposing Israeli actions by reason of, or connected to, so-called “antisemitism”.
She strikes me as a very unpleasant woman.

Laurence Fox really should stop posing as a political leader. He is a political bad joke. He is, or thinks that he is, pro-free speech, and I approve of that (though, like Toby Young, Delingpole, and the whole “Free Speech Union” mob, his support is limited and biased), but he is basically a disconnected Conservative Party person who (understandably) wants less censorship, and fewer migrant-invaders coming to the UK.
Fox is currently parroting Israeli/Jewish lobby propaganda. He should stop pretending that “Reclaim Party” is anything other than a political joke (and far less amusing than the Monster Raving Loonies) and either return to acting, or join a real social-national party (when one exists).
I notice that Jews are actually reporting pro-Palestinian people who have been removed pro-Israel posters in London (and maybe elsewhere) to the police. In fact, tearing down such posters is not a crime. Putting up such posters is a crime (all flyposting is a crime in London).

An IDF ground operation in the Gaza Strip could take months, require significant military forces, and “the Israeli military is already stretched to the limit,” Vice reports , citing senior US officials and the Israeli military.
If that is true, i.e. that the Israeli forces are now stretched to the limit, then now, logically, would be the moment for Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, even Egypt, and those imprisoned in the West Bank territories, to strike. However, the Arabs and others in the region are disunited. The outcome remains uncertain.

As I know only too well, free speech is on the way out in the UK. I am (obviously) not a Muslim, let alone an “Islamist”, but I am not at all “offended” by some foreign person shouting about “Jihad” against Israel in the streets of London. I am not even very offended, or would not be, if the same foreign individual were to cry out for “Jihad” against the UK, or against me personally. After all, the most extreme Zionist Jews have been tweeting malevolently about me for about 13 years. The people of whom to be afraid are those not shouting in the streets.
If foreign (inc. foreign but born here) groups are a danger, then resettle them outside the UK.
As for Suella Braverman, she (like Jenrick, and Mark Harper, who was weaselling for Israel, as usual, on Sky News this morning) is just another doormat for the Jewish lobby. She has no idea of much, either politically or, I think, legally.

“On September 25, 2000, 19-year-old Kevin Hines attempted to end his own life by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. Plunging over 220 feet at a speed of 75 miles per hour, he hit the water below, shattering three of his vertebrae and narrowly missing severing his spine by two millimeters.
Despite the odds, he miraculously survived the impact. Upon realizing he was still alive, an intense will to live surged within him. Yet, the weight of his clothes continuously pulled him beneath the surface of San Francisco Bay. For what seemed like an eternity, he struggled to resurface briefly, gasping for air, just enough to hold on to life.
Suddenly, he felt an unusual force from below lifting him above the water’s surface, where he remained until the Coast Guard arrived. It was only later that he discovered the mysterious presence keeping him afloat: a sea lion had been supporting his body until the rescue boat arrived, as eyewitnesses had observed.
His story gained major media coverage and he has since become a motivational speaker and advocate for suicide prevention.“
Unsurprising. “They” have already destroyed free speech in the UK…

The death toll in Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip has exceeded 5 thousand, and more than 15 thousand people have been injured, the local Ministry of Health reported.
It is not impossible that there will eventually be a kind of sectarian/civil war across Israel/Palestine. The massive military advantages Israel possesses lie in nuclear weapons, tanks and other armour, air power, high-tech surveillance, much of which loses effectiveness or even utility in closely-packed areas (which describes much of Israel/Palestine).
There may be a war, eventually, in which infantry or guerrilla forces play a major part.
Impossible? Maybe, but my prediction, a few years ago, that the Palestinians might break out of their “open prisons” to attack Israeli civilians in Jewish areas has now come to pass in the recent attack on Southern Israel, so who knows?
Senior advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Mark Regev: We realize that the battle will be difficult in Gaza, and Hamas has built a formidable military machine.
As I blogged before, the Gaza situation, as it now is, is most similar, historically, to the Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943, but this time the Jews are not the ragged defenders but the heavily-armed and armoured army, with air support, attacking an urban enclave filled with mostly-unarmed civilians (in this case, mostly babies, young children, and young teenagers).

I notice that someone today (just one reader) looked at a blog post from the earliest days of this blog. It was written in November 2016, and was one of the first articles I posted after the blog was set up. It is also perhaps the least-read of all my blog posts, despite having, I think, stood up well over the intervening years.

Superficially positive, but I wonder to what extent that poll reflects the fact that the blacks and browns are breeding prolifically in the UK, but the real (white Northern European) British inhabitants of the UK are not even reproducing their numbers.
In other words, the population of 16-24 year-olds is simply less white, less European, than older generations. The proportion of (among others) Muslims in that age group may be (is) far higher. Demographic shift.
The question reminds me of the Brexit Referendum, when the Remain side was terribly proud of the (apparent) fact that “the more educated” voters favoured Remain. In reality, that was a mirage. A far higher proportion of younger people have attended some kind of supposed “Uni”, but the older generations simply had a smaller proportion of people attending universities, usually for financial reasons, and because universities were fewer in number. Many of the new “universities”, are “McUniversities”, conferring “McDegrees”…

Andrew Bridgen is considered very dangerous by the System, because he is an MP, not someone opining on Twitter/X or Facebook.

Looking also at the present political climate, and the great unpopularity of the present government, it may be that Bridgen has as much chance as a “Reclaim Party” candidate as he would have had as a “Conservative” Party one.
Reclaim Party is a dead duck, in my opinion, but Bridgen has a high public profile, and it is just about possible that, if the Conservative Party vote in the constituency collapses, or reduces by 40%-50%, and if the Labour Party vote only increases slightly, that Bridgen might just manage to come through the middle and win by a short head. A long-shot, but just about possible.

BREAKING: AL-AHLI BAPTIST HOSPITAL MASSACRE – BBC JOURNALIST STATES IT HAD TO BE ISRAEL
BBC's John Donnison: "It's hard to see what else this could be, really, given the size of the explosion, other than an Israeli air strike, or several air strikes" pic.twitter.com/Gxx4evC9DW
Israel is lying through its teeth to blame the hospital massacre in Gaza on Hamas. Neither Hamas has that powerful rocket nor has there been any second explosion of stored explosives to pass on the blame. Netanyahu's murderous hubris has brought this disgrace to Israel.
Most Israelis are not descended from ancient “Israelites” but from Khazars:
Much of the WW2 “holocaust” narrative, used to give legitimacy to the migration-invasion of Palestine by Jews in the mid/late 1940s, is not true, notably the “gas chambers” fable;
The migration-invasion of Palestine by Jews in the mid/late 1940s was neither necessary nor justified. Jews massacred large numbers of Palestinian Arabs, and buried the bodies in mass graves, afterwards stealing the land, houses, apartments etc of the murdered victims.
The “holocaust” narrative is still, 80 years on, being used as cover for the continuing Israeli/Jewish military and other crimes.
Anna Botting gives an outstanding and brave example of how genuine journalism can expose truth from questions.
The accuracy of the questions expose the truth to the lies of the answers.
Jew-Zionist loony and troublemaker pretends to fear “a worldwide pogrom“. I suppose that I should not comment.
Same loony seems to think that the inhuman destruction of the hospital in Gaza should not be noted or criticized because it is a so-called “blood libel” (the mediaeval belief that some Jews killed and/or ate European children).
In any case, even if we leave aside the hospital attack and the 500+ killed there, look at what the Israeli Jews are doing generally in Gaza. Massive destruction. Massive attacks on areas full of civilians, about half of which are children, and a quarter of which are young children under 11 or 12 years of age. Also, the cutting off of water supplies, food supplies, gas, electricity, medical supplies etc.
Meanwhile, in the UK, several people individually (including me) are being prosecuted under a law (Communications Act 2003, s.127) which is so open to abuse (mainly from Jewish/Zionist cabals) that the Law Commission has officially recommended its repeal.
I should add, belatedly, that my alleged sins are said to date from 2020 and 2021— nothing to do with the present Israel/Palestine situation.

Sounds like a fairly moronic individual. Director of an engineering company called GEFCO, formerly owned by Russian interests.

The medals appear to be (the photo is not very clear) the equivalent of “campaign” medals, one for Iraq and one for service of at least 30 days with the NATO force in Kosovo. I am not very well-informed about medals, so I may not be quite right about that.
I find the Tamworth by-election hard to call. I think that it must be between Con and Lab. I think that it may be close, but Labour has a pretty good chance here.
What interests me is the question “if both by-elections are lost, will Sunak resign, or at least face calls to resign?”

DOUBLE BY-ELECTION DEFEAT FOR TORIES
@SkyNews obtained a memo to Greg Hands outlining concerns that the party's vote share could halve in both Tamworth & Mid Beds by-elections tomorrow, ending in the loss of both seats.
I'm indeed very confident of a Lib Dem win. I've knocked on hundreds of doors where there are very disgruntled Tory voters who'll either stay at home, or vote Lib Dem. Only a handful would even consider voting Labour. The Tories are going to lose, and Labour can't win in Mid Beds
Well, who knows? With a day to go, there seems all to play for, not only for Lab and Con, but for the LibDems too.
At a guess, I too would have looked (pre-2020) at the Cons as the most likely choice by far (Nadine Dorries scored almost 60% in 2019), but people even in very “Conservative” areas are now mightily angry (mixed with apathy in view of the convergence of most Con/Lab policy). Not sure whether those former Con voters will vote Lab, though. I am inclined to think abstention or voting LibDem might be more popular.
The betting markets are often wrong on by-elections. Still, at present the betting exchanges have the Cons odds-on, Labour around 3/1 and LibDems around 5/1.
Sounds plausible, but that LibDem bet at 5/1 could be value.

More about Tamworth
Further research into the Conservative Party candidate seems to confirm my earlier comments about his medals (Iraq and Kosovo): he enlisted in the Staffordshire Regiment, and served for 6 years. His final rank was Lance Corporal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-cooper-38367816a/?originalSubdomain=uk, and it seems that his specialism was as a sniper.
Cooper himself self-describes as “Progressing from Sniper to Lance Corporal in the Staffordshire Regiment of the British Army. Completing tours such as Iraq, Kenya, Kosovo and Bosnia performing duties including surveillance, target acquisition and official duties in France for Queen Elizabeth II“; and
“Experienced, effective and diligent Railway Engineer with a strong track record in the sector following on from a distinguished military career. I specialise in railway maintenance and asset management but also have significant experience of railway engineering projects.”
Cooper having been a railway engineer for 17 years, I should think that he does a lot more good in that field than he might as an MP.
Well, there it is. We shall know the result late tomorrow, or early on Friday.
I think that Labour will win at Tamworth; not so sure about who will win in Mid-Beds. The bookmakers prefer Labour at Tamworth, and the Cons in Mid-Bedfordshire.

“FAZ: Russia is using the situation in Israel to discredit the United States and distract attention from Ukraine.
After the Hamas attack, the Russian President, on the one hand, spoke out for Israel’s right to defend itself, on the other hand, he condemned the blockade of Gaza, comparing it to Leningrad, and confirmed his commitment to the two-state principle.
Despite the fact that Russia has good contacts in the region and called for de-escalation of the conflict, Western countries in the UN Security Council rejected Moscow’s proposal. Frankfurter Allgemeine explains this by saying that Russia has intentions to use the new conflict to its advantage. The newspaper points out that the Russian president calls the situation in Israel “a striking example of the failure of US policy in the Middle East” and accuses Washington of not taking the “fundamental interests of the Palestinian people” into account.
In addition, according to the German newspaper, the Kremlin is using the conflict to divert attention from Ukraine. “The prospect that Israel will now receive Western weapons and ammunition that Kyiv might otherwise receive is emboldening the power apparatus and the media” in Russia.
Moscow also benefits from rising oil prices, which fill government finances.“

“America has been condoning Israeli war crimes for years, recalls Scott Ritter It is not unusual that the Israeli military bombed a hospital in Gaza, killing 500 people.
Such tactics are consistent with the IDF’s “Mowing the Grass” doctrine, which involves disproportionate violence against not only militants, but also civilians, including children, US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter said in an interview with the Judging Freedom YouTube channel.
At the same time, he said, Washington is in no hurry to introduce an embargo, stop or at least criticize Tel Aviv, whose army is actually committing war crimes with the help of American weapons. Moreover, the United States has been turning a blind eye to this fact for many years. “We know what Israel is doing. We support what Israel is doing, so any talk in the US about compassion for the Palestinian population is one hundred percent false. We have never sympathized with the Palestinians. We have always supported Israel’s perspective and strategic goals, even if they include the “Cut the Grass” policy,” Ritter emphasized.”
“Gaza has constant power cuts, dismal public services, dirty water and a crushing lack of jobs.
Most of its energy comes from Israel – but even the small contributions from Gaza’s single power plant, like all private generators, rely on imported diesel.
Much of the struggling health services depend on the United Nations and charities. Patients in need of more serious treatment require permission from Palestinian and Israeli officials to travel outside the Strip, which is ringed with 20ft fences, motion sensors, radar and cameras.
But the most critical shortage here is of hope. This is one of the world’s most densely populated places and has one of the youngest populations – yet more than two-thirds of young adults are unemployed, while eight in ten residents rely on external aid.
Although tens of thousands of Palestinians used to leave Gaza to work in Israel, the border was sealed after the Hamas takeover, so an entire generation has grown up never able to leave the Strip and never having met an Israeli.
This all makes it fertile ground for Hamas to find ‘martyrs’ for its twisted cause, especially amid the trauma of living under frequent attack and bombardment.
It is little wonder that past polls have found half of Gazans want to leave this blighted place – and no surprise that it was the source of the latest explosion of hatred to stain this turbulent region.“
[Daily Mail].
A 2018 account from Conservative Party-supporting journalist Ian Birrell (he wrote some speeches for David Cameron-Levita c.2012), but interesting, and worth reading the full version.
Gaza has been called “an open prison” but it is is probably more accurate to call it a large-scale guarded ghetto. In fact, to me it resembles from a distance— I have never been there, nor (obviously) Israel— the Warsaw Ghetto of the early 1940s: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Ghetto.
That Wikipedia account has been subject to the (((usual))) bias, but gives the overall background.
The state of the police and the Crown Prosecution Service! Read that Daily Mail report.
All commonsense seems to have fled from both police and CPS. Real crime goes unpunished or not even investigated, while the police wet themselves over trivial incidents and/or people posting “wrong” thoughts online.
Of course, casualties in Gaza will be given less prominence than those in Israel, because the Western mass media is —mostly— controlled, or at least heavily influenced, by Jew-Zionists.

The events in Israel/Palestine have resulted in an outpouring of System virtue-signalling.
Sunak, Starmer, and many others all falling over each other to pledge allegiance to Israel. Political con-man, and “controlled opposition” kingpin Nigel Farage, too. In a way, it is a good thing that those who are under that control have identified themselves.
On a different note, I wonder whether the “answer” to the otherwise intractable Gaza problem might be to establish a programme whereby Gazans can relocate to new towns across the Middle East, with co-operation of governments within the region. Instead of one very crowded city of 2 million inhabitants, 19-20 towns, each with 100,000 inhabitants. Gaza itself to be reduced to 100,000, or perhaps to be returned to sparsely-populated farmland.
The above “solution” might be acceptable both to the Gazans themselves (giving them greater freedom and better living conditions) and to the Israeli government (reducing the “security threat” to near-zero), if it could be organized.

She came from a rescue who could no longer keep her. Standing 15.2 HH she was formerly a good polo pony but after injury could no longer play. She is a dream to handle and groom, our vet is still assessing her injured knee 💜 pic.twitter.com/o0Gfo0BAv3

Anti-Russian sanctions not only failed, but also crippled the EU economy, says American economist
It is clear that Western restrictions designed to undermine the Russian economy have failed. Moreover, they hit Washington’s allies, American economist Richard Wolf said in an… pic.twitter.com/bSV0rmOpga
Labour’s “plan” to build on the Green Belt, to build unpleasant shacks or flats by the million— to whom will they be given? Migrant-invaders? I think so.
Stop the flow. Reverse the flow. Eliminate the flow.
Kirsty Wark is utterly depraved. A heartless monster. This is absolutely disgusting. https://t.co/76hhRFKQnk
This poor man has been doing the rounds for days now with the same inane questions being thrown at him in the hope of a gotcha moment. Kirsty Wark is a respected journalist but it’s clear she was under instruction to toe one line only pro Israel or else
A biased (in its tone) piece by a Jewish scribbler; nonetheless worth reading.
“An emboldened Iran will extend the export of its missile and drone technology, which is already playing an important role for Russia in its campaign against Ukraine.
Indeed Moscow, though it has had good relations with Israel, has much to gain from a new Middle Eastern conflict.
The U.S. is likely to feel pressure to strengthen Israel’s defences against Hamas rockets with weapons like the highly effective Patriot surface-to-air anti-missile system.
America does not have a big stockpile of these Patriots, and Israel will receive priority, meaning there will be far fewer for President Zelensky’s government.“
168 buildings, including 1,009 residential units, were completely destroyed, while 12,600 were partially damaged, according to the Palestinian Authority.

“Ukraine is forgotten: the largest American media after the start of the war in Israel closed their “online” coverage of events in Ukraine All major American media have curtailed their coverage of events in Ukraine in live short news mode. CNN, which reported “online” in Ukraine almost non-stop, stopped updating it on October 6. Since then, the link to the Ukrainian “online” has disappeared from the European version of the publication’s main page and has not appeared on it again. Almost simultaneously, The New York Times stopped online coverage of Ukraine. Its main page, like CNN’s, now covers events in Israel online.“
Ha.
Late thought
The stories coming out of Gaza and Southern Israel are more than merely unpleasant; terrible. As far as the Palestinian combatants are concerned, if they are sometimes monstrous, it is because they have been made monstrous, and made so mainly by the behaviour of the Israeli Jews.
