The atrocities of 10/7 already long forgotten and now Israel is the sworn enemy. US students wearing keffiyehs and chanting “we are Hamas!”. Iran could not have planned this any better…and the Biden administration was foolish enough to help fund it.

My 1984 referencing Newspeak. Have you read it? 'Ministry of Peace' - 'Jewish' voice for Peace'...Absolute bollocks anti Zionism is not anti Semitic.
Yawn.
From the numerous Israelis that I have met on 8 trekking trips to Nepal only those on the left can I count as friends.
Your random 1984 question is lacking momentum as Corbyn was not controlling the masses.
Your support for a far right government killing and starving thousands is very disturbing. Are you Joe Biden in disguise?
Where did I mention supporting a govt?

World Central Kitchen to resume Food Aid in Gaza after 7 aid workers were killed on 1 April
"We have been forced to make a decision: Stop feeding altogether during one of the worst hunger crises ever...Or keep feeding knowing that aid, aid workers and civilians are being intimidated and killed …”
World Central Kitchen has been providing food aid to Palestinians since February when NGOs and the UN started warning of food crisis catastrophe. Gaza’s hunger crisis is thought by some UN experts to be the result of a deliberate attempt by Israel to weaponise hunger in the enclave:
“Intentionally depriving people of food is clearly a war crime. Israel has announced its intention to destroy the Palestinian people, in whole or in part, simply for being Palestinian. In my view as a UN human rights expert, this is now a situation of genocide. This means the state of Israel in its entirety is culpable and should be held accountable – not just individuals or this government or that person.”

That interview literally brought tears to my eyes. He reminded me so much of my father.
I urge anyone to watch that who thinks there can not be Jewish people like myself, who utterly condemn Netanyahu’s punishing war on the Palestine people and who are not being antisemitic when we criticise the Israeli government but humanitarian. An empathy with the victims of genocide and oppression for obvious reasons.

Interview with Israeli spokesman David Mencer by Norway Broadcasting Corporation’s Yama Wolasmal:
(Incidental and completely unrelated news snippet: David Mencer used to be a Director of Labour Friends of Israel)
Meanwhile, when some British journalists try to do their jobs with any kind of integrity - they are seemingly relieved of their positions. Odd that.

Absolutely shocking how easily and frequently Israeli officials spew lies to cover up their heinous crimes. The fact that David Mencer was director of Labour Friends of Israel tells you all you need to know about Labour and its warped relationship with Israel.
On your second point, there seems to be quite a few journalists being fired for asking inconvenient questions - other than the ones you mentioned, Mehdi Hasan was fired from MSNBC for seemingly 'inconvenient' reporting.
He set up his own media company https://www.youtube.com/@zeteo_news
Thank you for posting this. What a brave, eloquent fella. Hopefully that will put the couple of apologists for the extreme right-wing state of Israel back in their box.
You have, however, mentioned the "C word" so we can expect HWT along shortly for a rant
Might explain why Starmer refused to call for a ceasefire for so long. After the UN called for a ceasefire, he couldn't really hold off much longer could he?

You're aware that the last dozen plus ceasefire offers have been refused by Hamas?
Also that their leaders have declared that Oct 7th will continue "forever"
That there was a ceasefire in place on October 7th

Not likely. The poster you mentioned has me on ignore - I think I might have committed the unforgiveable offense of criticising Starmer.
The thing about offers is they need to be reasonable.
Can I have your house for £10?

Well, they were mostly brokered by Egypt and/or Qatar.
Have you had a look at any of them?
David Mencer needs a swift dispatch. How any decent human being can claim that, despite providing evidence, everything their enemy says is lies but we're meant to believe that the murderous Israeli government and genocidal IDF only speak the truth but have no need to provide any evidence is beyond me. The IDF are literally no better than Hamas.
No assault on Rafah seems a reasonable want from Hamas ( and ironically the US ) - and one Israel isn't prepared to give. You'd think they'd want the remaining hostages back but it seems not.
