The British Empire is up to its neck in Palestinian blood.

The British Empire is up to its neck in Palestinian blood. Franck Magennis has said it out loud. He grew up under British helicopters in occupied Ireland. He knows an empire when it lectures the colonised on “civilised resistance.” He rejects the lecture. Britain did not stumble into Palestine. It issued Balfour. It ran the Mandate. It opened someone else’s land to a settler project. It still arms, still excuses, still criminalises solidarity, still pretends its hands are clean. Ireland remembers the method: partition, ban, collective punishment, polite law over a pile of bodies. Palestine is not abstract. It is the same empire. Name it. Stand with Palestine. From the river to the sea.

The Nazis hid their worst crimes in the fog of war.

Norman Finkelstein, son of Holocaust survivors: The Nazis hid their worst crimes in the fog of war. They used coded language, secret speeches, and the chaos of a world war to conceal what they were doing. Even they understood some things could not be done in the open. Israel has done the opposite. The starvation, the flattening of neighbourhoods, the mass displacement of a population that is half children — all of it has happened in daylight, on camera, with officials speaking plainly about making Gaza uninhabitable. One regime tried to hide it. The other has carried it out in front of the world and called it self-defence. That is the difference. Free Palestine.
