At some point in the future, the extreme weather events caused by climate change will lead to a decades long global recession.
It will be ‘degrowth’ by default.

When I think of Patrick Stewart, it's not Captain Picard or Professor X that springs to mind. It's this quote.
May he rest in peace.

A new mural of Irish goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu, who refused to play against Israel, has been created by Emmalene Blake in Harold’s Cross, Dublin.
“There are a few times when you get a chance in life to stand for something bigger, and I strongly believe that this is one of them.”

Israelis super proud of destroying orthodox Christian churches in Lebanon that they have to take selfies. They blocked the entrances with sand .

Amazing — Israeli actress Chelli Goldenberg accidentally tells the truth when she doesn’t realize she’s live on the air. (H/T @MintPressNews)

I can hardly imagine anyone who hasn’t seen this photograph. But it was taken on this day in 2000.
I cannot believe the photo is 26 years old now.
The boy in the photograph was Fares Odeh. He was just 14 years old.
Ten days after this image was captured, Fares went out again to throw stones at Israeli tanks, seeking to avenge the killing of his 17-year-old cousin.
An Israeli sniper shot him in the neck, killing him.
And there is another chilling detail to this photograph.
The photo changed Israeli tank doctrine. In August 2001, The Jerusalem Post quoted an anonymous tank doctrinist saying tank personnel were now instructed to fire upon rock-throwers.

“You are IGNORING the Palestinian people!”
This was me, on Sky News, in 2018.
In the following year I had a dossier written about me, written by Lab backbenchers, which cost me jobs & saw me black listed by BBC.
The Israel lobby is very real! youtu.be/Dv43zr2xQhg?is=hnG0…

The United States government bombed an elementary school FULL OF CHILDREN in Iran.
Once rescue operations began, they bombed it again.
Once people tried again to rescue the children, the United States bombed it again, a third time.
New Footage Shows U.S. DOUBLE-TAP STRIKE on Iran's Minab School During Rescue Operations
The Second Attack reportedly while RESCUE Workers and Civilians were searching rubble and helping the wounded.
WE NEED ANSWERS NOW. This video Confirms this was NOT an accident and it was intentionally hit. You do not DOUBLE TAP STRIKE on accident.

Israel is the only society to have actually voted for their government to commit genocide. Even Germany didn't do that.

We've waited patiently for a plan to end neoliberalism. We won't wait anymore.
We need rent controls
We need a wealth tax
We need *serious* cuts to energy bills
Instead it's a few pence off gherkins & a payout which the experts say won't touch the sides on energy bills.

20,000 and counting. It’s time to expose the full truth about Britain’s complicity in genocide.
Our petition for a public inquiry into Britain’s role in Gaza has hit 10,000 signatures.
Now, let’s get it to 100,000 to force a debate.
The public deserves to know the full scale of Britain’s complicity in genocide.

Who is Jake Wallis Simons cheering on here?
It's Moshe Feiglin.
He just got elected on the government ticket.
Last year he said:
"Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy."
Jake knows exactly who this man is, by the way.

56 individuals in the UK have as much wealth as the poorest 27 million (Oxfam), but they appear - for some reason - to be immune from government efforts to raise more cash
Monstrous and criminal

'The nearly 5 million Palestinians in Occupied West Bank + 2.3 million in Gaza do not vote in Israeli Elections. But the 1 million Israeli citizens living illegally in West Bank do vote in the elections'. And the EU calls this the only Democracy in the Region.? Total nonsense...
The Palestinian population in Israel is approx. 25%, at 2.5 million. They are classified as Arabs, not Palestinians, in order to deny them their identity, and sever their relations with Palestinians in the occupied territories. They vote in the Israeli elections, and expect about 19 seats in the 120-member Parliament in the current elections.
Nonetheless, they do not enjoy the same rights as the Israeli citizens. There are over 100 laws that discriminate against these Palestinian citizens in Israel. The country is codified in law as the national homeland of Jewish people. There is none in the Cabinet, but they have a judge in the Supreme Court. They serve in the army and police but at a deputy commander level at most.
The nearly 5 million Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, and 2.3 million in Gaza do not vote in Israeli elections. But the 1 million Israeli citizens living illegally in the West Bank do vote in the elections.
Historically, the Palestinian/ Arab parties in Israel stay out of Government. With 19 seats, and a tie in the two major coalitions, they will be the kingmakers if they opt to join the Jewish coalitions which in the campaigns have made it clear they would not want to form a coalition with Arab because of their conditions. In the above clip, Netanyahu rules out a coalition with them. But will the Arab Palestinians want to join his Government anyway?
