There are lots of people on here drinking the security services Kool Aid over the sentencing of the Filton Four. They believe the judge was right to overturn the jury's decision to convict four anti-genocide activists of criminal damage and make it a terrorism offence instead, overturning centuries of legal precedent. Why? Because, they claim, the four activists broke / smashed / shattered a police woman's spine. But that obviously can't be the explanation because three of the activists had nothing to do with that incident and yet they were convicted as terrorists by the judge anyway. Even Samuel Corner, the activist who was convicted over this incident (which left the police woman with a minor fracture, according to the medical authorities who testified), shouldn't have been sentenced as a terrorist for it because that is not what the jury, which heard the actual evidence, decided. The jury convicted Samuel Corner of grievous bodily harm *without intent*. The prosecution had charged him with GBH *with intent* because they needed that as his conviction to build a public mood in support of the proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation. If Corner could be presented as having entered Israel's Elbit weapons factory with intent to commit violence, then the implication would be that the other activists were in on that plan – a conspiracy – and the government would be off the hook of violating fundamental legal norms by proscribing Palestine Action. By stripping out intent, the jury pulled the rug from under the government's feet. Judge Johnson's task was put the rug firmly back in place by riding roughshod over the jury's decision and sentencing them as terrorists anyway. The timing couldn't be more convenient. On Monday, the Appeal Court will be deciding on the government's appeal against the High Court declaring its proscription of Palestine Action unlawful. If you're peddling the "But they smashed the back of a police woman" line you've been fed by the Daily Mail and BBC, it's because that is exactly what the government needs you spouting as it upends our age-old rights to jury trials, as it stamps out an honourable tradition of direct action dating back to the Suffragettes and before, and as it gives itself cover for continuing complicity in a genocide. Stop being a cuck. Don't fall for this psy-op.

Sentenced and imprisoned on grounds of “terrorism” that no jury ever convicted them of. Meanwhile, the British government continues to aid and abet the greatest crime of our time. A historic miscarriage of justice — and a truly dark day for civil liberties in this country.
🚨BREAKING -- The Palestine Action defendants have been sentenced for a combined total of more than 25 years. Charlotte Head - 6 years Leona Kamio - 6 years Fatema Zainab - 5 years and 8 months Samuel Corner - 8 years and 8 months

Perhaps because Israel lied, tricked, threatened, terrorized, and even bombed MENA Jews into emigrating to Israel so you Eurotrash colonizers could treat them like second-class citizens.

The sentences handed to four young activists for taking direct action at an Israeli arms factory are completely disproportionate and wrong. They've been sentenced for a "terrorist connection" they were never charged with. A clear miscarriage of justice and dangerous precedent.

Forever grateful to the indefatigable @PeterBeinart and all others who have pushed back against these ridiculous attacks against me and other critics of the war!
More eloquently than almost anyone else in Washington, @tparsi warned that this war against Iran would be a catastrophe. His reward? The Trump administration is reportedly considering deporting him. This is how America makes itself both stupid and unfree. Anyone who cares about intelligent debate, freedom and basic decency must speak now.

One of the most common lies spread about the 20th century Palestine is that it was actually the Jews who called themselves, "Palestinians" or "the Palestinians." This is false. Some 170 references to the term "the Palestinians" can be found in Arabic sources from 1898-1914 to refer to the Arabs of Palestine academia.edu/49925414/The_Or… and a half dozen references to "Palestinian" or "Palestinians" can be found in European languages from 1870-1897 to refer to the Arabs of Palestine academia.edu/63693212/How_th… So where does this Zionist lie come from? Jews, like Christians and Muslims and other inanimate objects in Palestine (e.g. plants, journals) were modified with the adjective, "Palestinian," as in "Palestinian plants" or "Palestinian journals" or "Palestinian Jewry." This was often the case in English, although not Hebrew. In Hebrew, the Zionists rarely if ever used this used this verbiage. In other words, Palestinian was a qualifier in the English language to refer to things in Palestine. Then, in 1925, the British established the colonial state known as the Government of Palestine and introduced what they called “Palestinian citizenship” in 1925. They explicitly stated “all the residents of Palestine, whether Jewish or not Jewish,” were Palestinian citizens. Yet the term "The Palestinians" in English or even simply "Palestinians" was rarely, if ever, used in English to describe the Jews of Palestine. I challenge a Zionist apologist to find me even a single reference to "the Palestinians" in English that is obviously refering to the Zionist community of Palestine. Find me even a single reference. The only reason Zionists love this weird distortion of history is to undermine a Palestinian identity. That's it. it's identity genocide. They want to genocide the Palestinian identity and think they are doing this by falsely claiming Jews were "the Palestinians." a lie to genocide an identity. zionism in a nutshell.

In the 20th Century the nomenclature of "Palestinian" mostly referred to the Jews, and Arabs called themselves some version of Arab, such as Southern Syrian or Egyptian. Most Arabs are recent within the last 120 years or so. There was no country of Palestinians, of Arabs.

Mearsheimer warns the world: Israel may launch a nuclear strike against Iran if it loses the war. The only solution? Either disarm Israel.. or eliminate its existence entirely. The world cannot bear this burden.

Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel. Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it. A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

March 8, 2022: Senator (now Secretary) Rubio and then-Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland: Rubio: Does Ukraine have chemical or biological weapons? Nuland: Ukraine has biological research facilities, which in fact we are now quite concerned about Russian troops – Russian forces – seeking to gain control of. We are working with the Ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of Russian forces, should they approach. ...And this one year after a global pandemic. Nuts.

Overall and objectively speaking, former Russian Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov’s MoD briefing slides are supported by DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s declassified releases. DNI Gabbard’s declassification corroborates the existence, scale, locations, involvement, funding, and pathogen handling that Lt. Gen Kirillov’s MoD slides documented. They’re overall complimentary: the number of labs (40 Gabbard/46 Kirillov) and locations throughout Ukraine like Uzhgorod, Kherson, and Odessa; contractor involvement, DTRA/BTRP role and funding; and significant overlap of pathogens/agents handled. Before these declassification releases, Kirillov’s MoD briefing was labeled disinformation in Western reporting, UN discussions, and “fact-checks.” Victoria Nuland mislead then-Senator Marco Rubio before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on 08 MAR 2022. She and then-DNI Avril Haines obscured the scope of Ukraine’s vast network of biolabs, and handling of deadly pathogens. There is reason for significant concern of martial law president Zelensky’s lack of transparency and independent verification of pathogen destruction over the years, especially for high-risk select agents.

Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany needed compliant judges to provide a legal veneer to their darkest crimes. Judge Johnson joins their wretched company. He overturned a jury's conviction of four anti-genocide activists for criminal damage and sentenced them as terrorists instead. As one their barristers pointed out, the four defendants were initially arrested by police on suspicion of involvement in an act of terrorism. But the prosecution decided not to charge them with terrorism offences because it knew no jury would ever convict them based on the evidence. Instead the Crown held two trials: a sham one for the jury, and the real one conducted in secret by the judge. That is not justice. It is a show trial worthy of the worst tyrannical regimes.
Here’s injustice Jeremy Johnson handing down the sentences at today’s disgusting stitched up Palestine Action trial. Any faith I ever had in the fairness of the British justice system is completely is dead.

IMPORTANT! Empire of Deception. SpaceX vs Ukraine. During the SpaceX IPO launch, here are some figures that will shock you. Starlink, with its fleet of over 10,000 satellites, has earned up to $8 billion in operating profits since 2022. Ukrainian scammers earned $16 BILLION!!! According to a deputy Mikishi - specifically refer to the representative of Zelensky team - Ukraine’s manhunters extort around $2 BILLION in bribes per year. Another minimum $2 BILLION per year is profit of scam call centers. According to Europol, Ukrainian scammers cause €800 million in losses annually in Germany alone. Canadian police report CA$240 million, the U.S. FTC reports over $1 billion, and Russian sources claim $2 billion A YEAR stolen from Russian citizens These money don’t go public and aren’t covered by Western media. What kind of “peace” are we even talking about? One Ukrainian “man-catching corporation” earns more per year than Ferrari, Adidas, or eBay combined!!! Manhunters make more profit than Hilton and Boeing. Ukraine is often called a top grain exporter that “feeds the world.” In reality, the combined profit of Ukraine’s 10 largest agro-exporters is under $1 billion - including locals (Kernel, Nibulon) and global traders (Cargill, Louis Dreyfus, Bunge, Glencore). Manhunters and scam offices together earn 4 times more than the entire Ukrainian grain export sector!!! For many young Ukrainians today, the dream jobs are: - Scammer stealing money from pensioners, or Manhunter kidnapping people and demanding ransom. This is the reality almost nobody talks about. With these values and career aspirations among the youth, what future does the country really have? PLEASE SHARE! Nobody talks about the biggest scam corporation in history. Run by Zelensky.

Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted. odni.gov/index.php/newsroom/…

Every time I suggest equality under the law as the right principle for Israel-Palestine, many of my fellow Jews tell me it's dangerously unrealistic, that I don't understand the region etc. It's exactly what I heard from white South Africans as a kid. But I rarely heard a Black South African during apartheid say that legal equality was unrealistic, or would produce more violence, just as I rarely hear that from Palestinians today.
I believe states should treat people equally under the law, irrespective of ethnicity, religion or race. I support that principle in the US, India, Iran, Israel-Palestine, everywhere. I believe such states tend to be safer for everyone because when people have equal representation in government they're less likely to take up arms. @mdubowitz disagrees. I'd welcome discussing this with him. I'm sure I'd learn something. And if my views are as odious and nonsensical as he suggests, he should want to expose them as such for as wide an audience as possible.

For many years, I took barbs for refusing to call Israel's policy in East Jerusalem "ethnic cleansing". After all, there were 60,000 Palestinians in East Jerusalem in 1967, and 400,000 today. Occupation sucked, and included war crimes, but it wasn't ethnic cleansing. That has changed now. There are 3 Palestinian neighborhoods, all of whose residents are being or are about to be displaced: Batan al-Hawa and al-Bustan in Silwan, and Um Haroun in Sheik Jarrah. The latter two are being razed, or will be razed in the near future. And immediately to the east, the Bedouin hamlet of Khan al-Akmar, adjacent to E-1, is about to be expelled, part of an attempt to "cleanse" Area C between East Jerusalem and the Jordan River valley of its Palestinian residents. Regrettably, I can think of no other term to use other than "ethnic cleansing".
Amnesty International has accused Israel’s government of carrying out a campaign of “ethnic cleansing” of Palestinians from the occupied West Bank and annexing their territory. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/ja8wy2
