Well, this week I scored 5/10, the same as political journalist John Rentoul. Different questions, though. I got the answers to questions 4, 6, 7, 9, and 10.
The foul allegations of rape have been dropped by the Israeli government. The forty beheaded babies has been downscaled to one dead baby, not beheaded, and killed by persons unknown. Two thirds of Israelis killed on October 7 were military personnel. The killers of the remaining…
“The foul allegations of rape have been dropped by the Israeli government. The forty beheaded babies has been downscaled to one dead baby, not beheaded, and killed by persons unknown.
Two thirds of Israelis killed on October 7 were military personnel. The killers of the remaining one third are definitively revealed to have been in part the Israeli armed forces themselves.
Those with influence who spread the propaganda to the contrary stand exposed as War Criminals and now much blood stains their character for ever. It is a spot which will not out. #Gaza_War#GazaCeasefire#GazaHolocaust#GazaHospital.”
Send it to Douglas Murray.

You really have to be life-threateningly stupid to hang around with Tommy Robinson these days. Everyone knows what he is. It's possible his hangers-on don't care that he's an agent provocateur – they just want a fight.
Imagine an ethnic version of Covid that only infects Arabs or Chinese with a 50% fatality rate. Israel and the US Govt have been working on this for decades. China and Russia have recently raised the alarm that the US Govt is developing ethnic bio weapons. Hitler 2.0 ☣️ pic.twitter.com/UDSMSqVoLQ
Ha. While not endorsing that tweet particularly, the point about the uselessness of the “security and intelligence” bods echoes my blog over the years. Not just SIS and MI5, but also the armed forces. What are they for, now? They cannot even stop the cross-Channel migration-invasion, let alone the wider mass immigration influx. The prospect of war with France, Spain, Germany, Denmark has receded into history. So what are the Navy and other forces for? To ferry yet more invaders to our shores?
As for SIS, and MI5, they still seem largely stuck in the era of “burgling the War Office safe”, or that of the key spy or defector (Penkovsky, Lyalin, Gordievsky etc), the existence of which will change everything (but never does).
Irrelevant in a fast-changing world.

However, the United Nations has warned that the ‘spectre of death’ looms over Gaza as hundreds of thousands continue fleeing from the expected Israeli invasion.

Israel already carries a very heavy karmic burden of evil; the present slaughter and distress being visited on civilian victims in Gaza (half of the population is under-18, and about a quarter are babies or children under 12) can only increase that.
“Cartoonist Steve Bell claims he has been ‘sacked’ by The Guardian over accusations that some of his work is anti-Semitic.
The veteran artist, who has worked for the newspaper for more than 40 years, said it was no longer willing to publish his artwork after he submitted a controversial cartoon of Benjamin Netanyahu.
In the image the president of Israel was seen wearing boxing gloves and holding a scalpel over his own exposed belly, readying a cut in the shape of Gaza while the caption reads: ‘Residents of Gaza, get out now’. “

A sign of the times.
In 2023, the proper word for the UK is “occupied”…
I do not have much time for any sort of Arabs as a group, any more than I have much time for Israelis or Jews generally (i.e. as a group). Both groups have their positive and negative points. However, both what the Israeli state is doing to the civilians in Gaza, and how the Jews elsewhere in the world are justifying that, is just evil and, in a word, inhuman.
I am reminded of someone I knew slightly in the early 1980s, about 1984-1985, when I belonged to the (now long-defunct, I believe) Kensington Rifle and Pistol Club. I suppose that he was about 55-60. I cannot recall his name.
Born in Gaza (I think) and an odd (?) mixture, half-Palestinian Arab, half-Russian, he was a pretty good pistol shot, and worked as a civil servant. I remember that, one evening, at the Club bar, he invited me to go, on some unspecified future day, to meet his (I think English) wife, but he died unexpectedly not long after, and in an unusual way.
The individual of which I speak worked at a government office very close to Lambeth North Underground Station. Co-incidentally, I myself was also there quite often, because I took part-time (a couple of evenings per week) Russian and German at nearby Morley College in Westminster Bridge Road.
There are or were no escalators at that station, only a large and ancient lift. I sometimes ran up the (about 90-100) stairs to the top, for exercise. It seems that the Russian-Palestinian fellow had no choice but to climb the stairs one day when the lift was out of operation. He got to the top, but suffered a heart attack and died there. The Evening Standard had a small story about it. I regretted being unable to offer his wife my condolences, not knowing her address or telephone number, and never having met her.
That Russian-Palestinian man had told me over a drink at the Club bar about how, in the Palestinian refugee camps of the day (1980s), sanitation and water supply were very basic, probably more so even than today (until a week or two ago, anyway), and how if a child lived to age 2, he or she was almost invulnerable to disease caused via bacteria, because the immunity was so strong. He himself cannot have been born in such a camp, though, because he must have been born in the 1920s, maybe early 1930s, before the Nakba (the late 1940s ethnic cleansing carried out by the Jews).
Just a stray memory or two…

🔵 Liz Truss is to challenge Rishi Sunak’s government with a so-called alternative budget
👀 It will come a year after Truss delivered the “mini-budget” which preceded her downfall as prime ministerhttps://t.co/hMg0DJW43i
I have no idea whether Liz Truss has some kind of deluded “plan” in doing this. Does she not understand that she and Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng) lost what little credibility they ever had a year ago?
Actually, why is she doing this? Can it be that she thinks that after the quite likely wipeout this Government is probably going to experience in 2024, whatever is left of the Parliamentary Conservative Party (maybe as few as 50 MPs, maybe 100 or so) will turn to her?
That’s the Union Flag or “Jack”, not the Israeli flag. Anyone confusing the two (stand up Suella Braverman, Rishi Sunak, Starmer, Farage etc) should go to Specsavers (or, better still, get lost).
Kay Burley: "Whats the view on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza this morning?"
The Israeli ambassador to the UK: "There is no humanitarian crisis…"
As someone once said, “the simulacrum of the human“. There may soon be robots with more humanity than her. That Israeli bitch cannot interact (even with someone, Kay Burley, who is quite pro-Jewish) in anything approaching a civilized manner, let alone a diplomatic manner. Why is she polluting our English air?
