(I know this has been out for months but) it seems that stories of the worst things that Hamas did on 7th October 2023 were completely fabricated by Israel in order to dehumanise the Palestinians, and naturally they were all eagerly swallowed and repeated by the US and UK and the media. The discovery that they were in fact lies remains ignored by the mainstream press.

Half expecting Tony Blair to swoop in like the corporate Angel of Death and make a quick buck. How blatantly can a people be shat on?

Labour suspend 30 out of 350 arms licenses to Israel. Better than nothing. Is it enough? Impossible to judge without seeing the detail but it sounds like the bare minimum they felt they needed to defuse problems at the party conference.
