‘What constitutes genocide is the Genocide Convention, not personal opinion’ – and her comments apply just as well to Lammy’s boss Starmer
United Nations legal expert Francesca Albanese has dismantled UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy’s wilful genocide denial, during an interview she gave to the ‘Thinking Muslim’ podcast. Her comments, though, apply just as well to Lammy’s boss Keir Starmer, who regularly makes a big deal of being a human rights lawyer but has shown complete contempt for human rights and international law and has engaged in as much genocide denial as his lackey Lammy:
Jewish anti-Zionists consider Albanese a hero for her fearless denunciation of Israel’s war crimes in Gaza. Starmer and Lammy are a sorry contrast: war-crimes colluders engaged in an all-out ‘lawfare’ assault, through the misuse of deeply-flawed ‘anti-terror’ legislation, on those who expose Israel’s actions and stand in solidarity with the Palestinians against mass murder and occupation.

Was leafletting Barclays today with PSC and an arrogant Zionist approached me and said Israel will do what it wants in the world and no-one stop us!
I said I sided with the ICJ & he said they were a load of rubbish!
He called me ignorant but I said I used to work in higher education, he said they are the most ignorant of all!
I suggested a list of books for him to read and the authors.
He said you are being selective.
He said have you ever been to Israel or Gaza?
I said I have met Palestinians and Jewish people plus Arafat in the cause of Peace (the latter with some colleague international including Jewish adult education tutors at a conference in Tunisia)..
Then I said you are land thieves and who the hell do you think you are?
Oh and when the Left stood in the streets face to face against Fascists, putting ourselves at personal risk as some of them were drunk, funny this bloke’s group & Right Wing Labour were nowhere to be seen!
But both called us racists behind our backs.
Trump has appointed many cultists like Mike Huckabee [Ambassador to Israel] and other Holy Rollers to his cabinet, Huckabee calls the West bank the Biblical Name of Judea and Sameria and insists there is no such thing as the Palestinian people, Trump has added many mentally ill religious millennium cultists to the highest positions of power. A Trump return could be more chaotic and devastating. A cabinet full of drooling apocalyptic believers eager for a return of the lord and prophecy fulfilment could easily turn Trump’s next 4 years into a disaster of biblical proportions. You have to wonder, is Trump mentally ill also?
Perhaps “Those the gods wish to destroy, first they send mad.”
Would hate to be a citizen in the US over the next few years though it’s bad enough here with Right Wing Labour Austerity and Labour laying prostrate at the feet of capital.
I don’t think you need wonder at all…..
WASHINGTON — When they promoted this Sunday’s pro-Israel rally in Washington D.C., the organizers knew they wouldn’t be able to match the turnout of last November’s March for Israel, which brought hundreds of thousands to Washington just over a month after Oct. 7.
So the marketing and press emails promised a smaller but still substantial number: One predicted “nearly 40,000.” Another said 30,000.
In the event they said fewer than 2,000 attended, [in the photo it looks like a mere 200 people]. Not surprising since Israel is the most despised nation on earth.

The following was posted on X (twitter) by Middle East Eye on October 29th (I just now came across it, posted by someone in the forum on Craig Murray’s website):
Belgian Workers Party Belgian MP Nabil Boukili confronted the Israeli ambassador to Belgium, Idit Rosenzweig Abu, in a heated exchange in the Belgian parliament on 22 October.

That is excellent and well worth EVERYONE watching. Hopefully, eventually, the truth will out, and those facilitating these crimes, including those in our own government, will be brought to account.
Two Jewish protestors Tony Greenstein and 79 year old cancer sufferer Professor Haim Bresheeth recently arrested have been informed that there will be no charges pursued. Tony Greenstein was alleged to have compared Zionist behavior in Gaza to that of the Nazis, he has an excellent letter to the police accusing them of .political policing. This article also condemns the IHRA definition as being not fit for purpose. A highly recommended article by Tony here…
