Israeli forces raided Palestinian human rights organisations in Ramallah yesterday, seizing equipment and files while also entering the courtyard of the Palestine Medical Complex. Among the organisations targeted were Addameer and the Union of Palestinian Women’s Committees.

Israeli blows up desalination plant as part of their plan to starve Palestinians to death or force them to leave Gaza. Israel and U.S. continue bombing Gaza tent cities.

Israel pours cement into wells and springs vital to Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank to make farming and even living impossible. Zionism is an evil as great as any in human history.

Thinking of those video clips of Jason Arday walking around Cambridge University in full regalia, picking a book off the library shelves etc. In my career, I never met a professor who allowed themselves to be portrayed in such a manner. What do they tell us,?

Just moments ago, the Israeli occupation bombed central Gaza City killing at least nine Palestinians and injuring at least 15. Yesterday, a targeted Israeli airstrike killed six Palestinians and injured at least 20 at a cafe near the port of Gaza City. Gaza continues to be exterminated.

Today, an Israeli strike in central Gaza killed a pregnant Palestinian woman with such force that her unborn baby was expelled from her body and found among the rubble. This is still happening. The Zionist death machine has not stopped.

4 more Palestinians have been murdered by Israelis in the occupied West Bank. As Nida' Ibrahim reports, since the beginning of this year 86 Palestinians have been killed in the occupied West Bank & Israeli settlers operate there with total impunity.

Footage obtained by Reuters showed the settlers attacking a Palestinian home, starting fires near the property and spraying graffiti on its walls. Eyewitnesses called it a coordinated attack.

I once had the honour of mightily upsetting the poet J H Prynne who has died aged 89. It was at the Sparty Lea Poetry Festival in 1967. Miles Davis was playing. I was sat next to Prynne who was happily beating time. Unhappily he was wildly out of synch and in my (our) drunken state, it got to me.

"Are you stone deaf?" I snapped. The slight, unfortunately, was enough for Prynne to hide himself away in the "Senior Common Room" ( the Cambridge University hut) to the great distress of his students and the bewilderment of everyone else. I am sorry Jeremy.

Consider the degree of dehumanization necessary in order for Western media to not even consider this news. We're up against people who have lost touch with their humanity. #EndZionism #GazaHolocaust #SanctionIsrael #FreePalestine

Israel dropped one of the largest and most powerful bombs since Hiroshima and Nagasaki on a village in Southern Lebanon; yet not a single American News Network mentions it. Had any other country dropped such a massive ordnance, the world would e been abuzz 24/7 with images and condemnations.

I suspect quite a few academics in 'safe' departments are enjoying sneaky feelings of schadenfreude at the spectacle of colleagues losing their jobs, since they have been repeatedly told that they have been subsidizing areas of low student recruitment.

I wish universities wouldn't make these dodgy claims of the vast sums they "contribute" to the local economy. What they mean is that these sums are spent locally. Rather different.

😡🇬🇧😡🇬🇧😡🇬🇧😡🇬🇧😡🇬🇧 From Threads. Every ‘principled’ Labour minister who fucks off in a huff is increasing the chances of this. You ‘hate’ SKS? You will hate this even more. And once the UK loses its NHS, etc it will NEVER return.

So Nigel Farage, was this the response you were looking for? It doesn’t take away from the fact that you’re a money laundering scum bag, it just adds to it. You despicable vile human being.

🚨 BREAKING: The genocidal state of Israel has attacked Gaza City killing at least 10 - including FOUR CHILDREN. 20 others were also wounded. Where is the international condemnation? Why does the UK still maintain arm and trade sales with a terrorist state?
