As the Genocide & Starvation Continues Starmer and Our War Criminal Leaders Supply Israel with More Weapons While Corrupt Arab Rulers Welcome Trump

Brighton Nakba & Gaza Children's March 18.5.25

On Sunday Brighton & Hove PSC held a silent march of about 1,500 people through the streets of Brighton with white ribbons  representing Gaza's murdered children. People in Brighton warmly welcomed the march and the only dissent was from about 10 pathetic Zionists near the rallying point.  

One idiot held a sign saying 'Stop the Lies - There is no Occupation'. There is no arguing with someone who denies a military occupation  in Gaza and the West Bank. Presumably the thousands of soldiers in the West Bank manning checkpoints are merely on  holiday.

Little Ms Hitler - aka Victorial Bhogal
Zionist genocide deniers are no different from neo-Nazi holocaust deniers. Both deny that which they support. Present among the handful of Christian and Jewish fascists was Little Miss Hitler, Victoria Bhogal who, when she saw me immediately complained to a nearby policeman. Presumably she objected to me calling her 'Miss' rather than  'Ms'. I shall take note in future!

In the past 19 months we have seen the collapse and impotence of International Law as Israel has been given a free hand to perpetrate every form of atrocity in Gaza.

Starmer supports cutting off food

In Britain Keir Starmer has lived up to the response he gave to LBC at the start of the Genocide that ‘Israel does have that right’ in response to a question as to whether Israel had the right to deprive the Palestinians in Gaza of food, water, and all the other essentials of life.

The fact that he later denied having said what everyone could see with their own eyes proves even more clearly that lies come second nature to a man without personality or principle. As Starmer says, he is a ‘(racist) Zionist without qualification.’

Starmer should be in the Hague for Complicity in Gaza's Genocide - Andrew Feinstein

We now learn that the embargo on weapons to Israel was yet another lie as Starmer’s government supplied more weapons to Israel in the last 3 months of 2024 than the Tory government supplied for the four year period 2020-23.

Starmer - The Murder of 8,000 Muslim Men and Boys in Srebenica Was A Genocide

The deceit and dishonesty of Starmer and Lammy is demonstrated by their denial that there is a genocide taking place in Gaza. Starmer, who even argued at the International Court of Justice that Vukovar in 1991, where 260 Croat men were killed was a genocide and who has repeatedly said Srebenica in 1995 was a genocide when 8,000 people were killed denies that Gaza constitutes a genocide. In Gaza, hundreds of thousands have almost certainly been murdered, including countless thousands of children, yet to Starmer it is not a genocide but an act of ‘self defence’.

Why?  Because the British government is actively complicit in the genocide, supplying both weapons and intelligence via RAF flights over Gaza. What this proves is that we are ruled by amoral war criminals and liars who are no better than their Nazi counterparts 80 years ago who were hanged in 1946 after the Nuremberg trials.

Those who deny the genocide in Gaza are the same as those who deny the Nazi holocaust. Article II of the Genocide Convention is quite clear.

genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

(a) Killing members of the group;

(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;

Israel’s attack on the people of Gaza is clearly aimed at destroying, in whole or in part, the Palestinian people. The pretext is that the aim is to destroy Hamas. If Israel was only concerned with destroying Hamas why would it attack every hospital, university, school, mosque, home and church even?

The idea that the  Command and Control centres are situated in hospitals for example doesn’t stand up to scrutiny. Why would Hamas place their HQs in indefensible hospitals rather than its tunnels? The fact that we haven’t seen one single photograph showing Hamas firing out of a hospital is proof that Israel’s allegations are lies.  Just like the lies about the murdered 15 Red Crescent workers.

Were the Hamas C&C centres placed in Gaza’s reservoirs? Even the BBC admits that Hundreds of Gaza's water and sanitation facilities have been damaged or destroyed’.

What is obvious is that if you intend to build settlements in Gaza and ethnically cleanse its population then you need to destroy all civilian structures, especially hospitals.

It’s not as if Israel’s leaders have been coy about their objectives. At the very start of the genocide Israeli President, Yitzhak Herzog was quite clear that 

It's an entire nation out there that is responsible. This rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved—it's not true. They could've risen up, fought against that evil regime

Herzog was the former leader of the Israeli Labor Party a party no less war-like than Prime Minister Netanyahu, who was equally clear when he invoked the ancient enemy Amalek. God had told the Hebrew tribes to

Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy[a] all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”

The Deputy Speaker of the Knesset, Nissim Vaturi called for Israel to ‘“wipe Gaza off the face of the earth,”.’ Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich complained that

We can’t, in the current global reality, manage a war. Nobody will let us cause 2 million civilians to die of hunger, even though it might be justified and moral, until our hostages are returned.

Smotrich was wrong. The leaders of the ‘free’ West have allowed genocide through the simple expedient of pretending it isn’t happening.

October 7th was the trigger, the pretext, to carry out the Zionists’ long planned ethnic cleansing of Palestine. What is happening now is the completion of the Nakba that took place in 1948.

Hamas mass rape a ‘hoax’ and ‘fake news’, says University of Sydney professor

After October 7 the Israeli government engaged in atrocity propaganda designed to justify the genocide that followed. We had the 40 beheaded babies hoax when only 1 baby died, shot accidentally shot. Then there was the mass rapes hoax which the New York Times did its best to propagate with its article Screams Without Words.. One of the main investigators, Anat Schwartz, was found, in February 2024 to have liked incendiary posts on social media, including one calling to "turn the strip into a slaughterhouse".

That too soon unravelled when the Intercept published on February 28 an exposé building on claims by Mondoweiss, Electronic Intifada and The Grayzone that there were inconsistencies in the story. The NYT itself was itself riven by doubts and its podcast The Daily withdrew an episode that was due to be shown.

It now turns out that there is not one case of alleged rape that will be  prosecuted. Southern District Prosecutor, Moran Gez, told YNet that:

Unfortunately, it will be very difficult to prove these crimes. In the end, we don’t have complainants. What was reported in the media compared to what will ultimately be established will look very different—either because the victims were murdered or because women who were raped are unwilling to come forward.

We reached out to women’s rights organizations and requested cooperation. They told us no one had contacted them. Some parents reached out to these organizations, asking what to do if something happened to their daughters, but they didn’t disclose the assaults.

In this area, I would temper expectations. I know the public is expecting action and understands the need to address the horrific sexual offenses and assaults that occurred, but the vast majority of these cases won’t meet the evidentiary threshold in court, and the criticism will ultimately fall on the prosecution—unjustly so.

Gez is a hard-line Zionist who advocates the death penalty for every Palestinian who participated in October 7th. She is convinced there were rapes yet by her own admission there were no complainants and no women’s rights organisation had been contacted by a woman claiming to have been raped. All she can do is speculate.

The allegations of mass rape, which were used to justify the genocide and the mass rape of Palestinians have, like the rest of Israel’s atrocity propaganda been shown to be bogus.

The claim that the 1,139 Israelis who died that day were the largest single massacre of Jews since the holocaust is also false. The largest killing of Jews took place between 1976 and 1982 in Argentina, a country that Israel supplied with weapons and military training. Up to 12% of the 30,000 who were murdered by the Junta were Jewish, despite Jews making up less than 1% of Argentina’s population. But because Israel was complicit in their murder this is not counted.

October 7th was indeed traumatic for Israel but not because it heralded a new holocaust. It was traumatic in the same way that slave and indigenous rebellions were traumatic. The trauma was not holocaust related but a consequence of the shock that was related to the settler colonial fear that the natives may one day rise up against them
