The only question anybody should ask is, why is Israel STILL in Gaza, STILL killing Palestinians.

When there is supposed to be a Ceasefire?

It is Israel breaking the Ceasefire and the War Criminals need to be evicted.

Can you imagine if this had been done by the Palestinians?
They would have been completely destroyed over our destruction.
Damn this injustice that doesn’t even respect the sanctity of death

Director of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Munir Al-Barsh:

Many of the bodies of Palestinians handed over by Israel in the exchange deal showed signs of torture, binding, and mutilation, and were stuffed with cotton from the inside.

The ‘ceasefire‘ is simply an exercise in laundering israel’s image across the west.

Wall to wall coverage on bodies not returned, with no mention of it being because israel have bombed their remains to pieces.

Not a word on the continued murder and kidnap of Palestinians and withholding of aid.

Globalise the intifada is a call to support Palestinian’s against apartheid, occupation, ethnic cleansing and genocide

Starmer’s comments fly in the face of international law, conflate israel and Jews and are anti-Palestinian racism

He does all this while legitimising far right hate speech at home

Starmer says 'intifada' chant is 'call to attack' Jewish people

They are also not allowed to speak to the press.

They do not want the world to know how they have been torturing them- physical, sexual and psychological abuse.

This is what occupation and dehumanisation looks like.

Palestinians celebrate, they deserve to breathe, to sleep a night not worrying it is their last.

We in the west cannot allow the norm of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, settler colonialism to continue.

A choice between genocide or apartheid and imperialism is not a choice, it does not free Palestine.
