It’s telling that the Israel Foreign Ministry is saying Brad Lander, a proud and vocal Jewish person, traveled to a “foreign country.” When Israel wants the moral high ground of saying it speaks for all the Jews, it is all of our homeland. When we ask it to be better, it’s a foreign country to us.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry attacking Brad Lander - a self-described liberal Zionist - by name, simply for doing protective presence, should be the final sign that the Israeli government would gladly sacrifice every last Jew in Diaspora to dominate more Palestinians with impunity.

A year ago, you could perhaps explain this as cowardice. Fearing Farage was headed for 10 Downing St, they felt a need to suck up to him. But given this seems far less likely now, we just have to conclude that this is their politics.
Pretty extraordinary for the Jewish Chronicle to run an op ed & news story about Nigel Farage warning of antisemitism in the Greens without mentioning that he is the only serving major party leader to have been criticised by Jewish groups for using tropes linked to antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Would be fascinating for the Israeli Supreme Court to have to decide this issue. (In theory. In practice they would find a way not to). www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I guess Count Binface is the establishment is no dumber than the other lines Reform have had to push about Farage's shitshow
Fascinating how rattled Farage allies are by Count Binface. I doubt he can really marshal a serious challenge - perhaps they do. Or maybe they just need to build him up into more than a guy with a bin on his head so this contest doesn't look, well, silly
Alona has a stronger stomach than I do. Follow for whats going on today.
Have made it down to the antisemitism rally in London to see whether Reform uses the opportunity to politicise the real problem of racism against Jews. It hasn’t started yet. Mostly we had 2 musicians belting out Israeli classics, as if this were the best expression of British Jewishness… /1

Aviv Tatarsky. One of the most committed Jewish Israeli activists in defending Palestinians in the West Bank. Attacked by settlers viciously yesterday in Dir Istya where he was helping a Palestinian farmer. Israeli soldiers were there and did nothing. Every. Day. Photo: @nirhasson.bsky.social on X

This documented Sde Teman torture+abuse was the only major Gaza-related case pursued by the military prosecution. It led to the downfall of the military prosecutor herself - dismissed, charged, and tried to take her life. Her successor today closed the abuse case. apnews.com/article/isra...

Bedouin-Palestinian communities have nowhere to shelter from the missiles 🚨 We launched a campaign to raise funds to provide mobile bomb shelters to unprotected, unrecognized communities in southern Israel – because we can’t wait for government policy to change. Donate: standtog.org/Shelter

These were laughable extreme fringe positions within the Israeli right earlier this decade, and now Israel’s emptiest centrist suit is parroting them 🥴
The full Hebrew interview is a bit more nuanced, but Lapid explicitly asserts that Israel holds a "title deed" from the river to the sea, by virtue of a religious document. www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260226-isr...

Bezalel Smotrich: the next government must "encourage voluntary migration" of Palestinian from the West Bank - there is no other solution. "We must complete the revolution". This is what the Israeli right is working towards: not Apartheid, but mass expulsion. www.haaretz.co.il/news/politic...

Israeli media report that Israel had obtained *months ago* credible information on the location of the last remaining hostage's body - a cemetery *within Israeli "yellow line" area of control* - but the government did not allow the IDF to search it. www.ynet.co.il/news/article... 1/

@zeteo.com Compare and contrast Donald Trump's response to Rob Reiner's murder with Biden and Harris's responses to Charlie Kirk's murder. There is no 'both sides'. Just one side - Trump - that is cruel, sociopathic, unhinged.

The ban on foreign journalists entering Gaza was just extended today — almost two months into the ceasefire. International reporters still aren’t allowed to talk to Palestinians on the ground and report on what’s happening. (1/2)
