"What is the definition of a gang? I would generally argue that this word is a contrived label used by rich people to describe any group of poor people organized around using force to acquire wealth like rich people without a state to hide behind. However, an even better definition may ironically come from United More

It's probably appropriate for me to share my most recent book - collection of stories, verse and reflections that illustrate the type of writer I have developed into over the past 15 years. I regard it as the best entry point into my writing. It isn't a demanding collection but I hope it piques your interest in my work and leads you towards my other publications.

Protesters in The Hague read aloud the names of Palestinians killed in Gaza, emphasising their humanity beyond mere statistics, before marching to the Israeli embassy to deliver 18 volumes listing 64,000 victims.

The demonstration reflects growing outrage as the Netherlands escalates diplomatic tensions with Israel, summoning its ambassador and labelling the country a national security threat alongside Russia and Iran.

People around the world are in very different situations.

Some dont care, others are shocked, others are outraged. Something needs to be done. Join protests, boykott israely products.

Since your country wont declare them public enemy, declare them public enemy yourself.

I'm an enemy of the apartheit state of israel. I denounce it as a colonialist state. I hold it accountable for its crimes against humanity and I always will.



Violence continues in Gaza and the occupied West Bank as Israeli military operations and settler attacks escalate. More countries, including Canada, France and the UK, are recognising Palestine, while protests in support of Palestinians grow worldwide.

Meanwhile, Israel expands settlements and the US imposes sanctions on Palestinian representatives, heightening tensions and uncertainty in the region.

Exactly, Starmer loves the new definition of antisemitism too - loves to use it to bash Labour MPs with and expel them (and members) from the party.

Menachem Klein, a professor emeritus of political science at Bar-Ilan University in Israel, has said that countries recognising Palestinian statehood must elucidate what a modern two-state solution would actually look like.

“I think an Oslo-style two-state solution is dead. There’s no way to revive it,” he said, referring to the 1993 accords, based on the gradual withdrawal of Israel from the Palestinian territory.

Westerse landen, waaronder Nederland, veroordelen in een gezamenlijke verklaring de toenemende dreiging van de Iraanse inlichtingendiensten in hun landen. Nederland biedt onderdak aan politieke vluchtelingen, maar faalt erin hen te beschermen tegen buitenlandse intimidatie en bedreiging, liet De Groene in 2024 al zien. Vooral Iraanse mensenrechtenactivisten leven vaak in angst. Overheid en politie kunnen hun veiligheid onvoldoende waarborgen. groene.nl/artikel/we-weten-waa…




“They are playing Squid Game with you.” Palestinians are dodging Israeli snipers and stampedes to get food at the deadly Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites.

“Everyone is shooting at you. And for what? Just to get a little food,” says Ibrahim, a father of four who risked his life only to walk away with two bags of pasta and a bag of bulgur. “It’s anything but humane.”

Dr. Feroze Sidhwa and Dr. Mark Perlmutter, who worked in Gaza, talk about Israel’s campaign of mass starvation, explaining that Israel has deliberately restricted food and aid to Palestine for decades.

The doctors explain how they were forced to act as journalists themselves in order to shed light on atrocities that Western mainstream media covers up.
