    To those questioning intent - the most difficult aspect of genocide to prove legally - there have been dozens of genocidal statements of intent. Its not just the Amalek one and "human animals". Along with the clear evidence of mass killing and the no food/water/fuel murder plan, this is why...

    It's already been accurate to describe gaza as a concentration camp for years, as Giora Eiland (former head of Israeli national security council and IDF operations chief) did in 2004, even before the siege But now it seems more accurate to describe it as a death camp.

    And the other crucial factor is the cutting off of food, water, electricity and fuel, while sealing the exits. because that alone is a genocidal plan for the entire population

    I hate how every single time the guardian mention the death toll, they say it's from the "Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry." As I think Ben Burgis pointed out, that's like referring to the NHS as the "Conservative-run NHS". As if people working in the health ministry have anything to do with...

    there was never any data to suggest levels of antisemitism were higher in the labour party than the conservative party. that's one of several reasons why the claim that there was a 'labour antisemitism crisis' i.e. a problem particular to labour, was false. with an organisation as big as labour...

    Definitely aware of that conspiracism strain. It does exist. But I don't think it's as prevalent as you do maybe. the kind that leads to antisemitism is still more likely to come from the right. If it was decided that the AS crisis campaign needed to be used to discredit any other political...

    Nope again thats not what im saying. He has plenty of faults. But not caring or acting against racism isnt one of them. You need to go through the details to disentangle all the lies and distortions, its a combination of many things, obv neither of us want to do that now. but 'bad news for...

    He wasnt weird and proud lol it was the opposite, he was weak and yielded to pressure when he should have stayed firm and called out the smears as smears you do see the same issue in the piers morgan thing though yes.

    Its the "crisis" part that was fake. of course you could find examples of antisemitism within labour. The crisis revolved around claims that labour had a particular problem with it, that corbyn himself was antisemitic, and that he neglected to address it properly, which was all ridiculous. It...

    Theres a good chance then because that's not what I mean. Yeah old ground but thats why you should just watch that video as it puts it to rest. Or the book. Deals with all the points quite definitively. The mistake he made was conceding points when he should have been strongly dismissing the...

    This guy didnt say its part of a cosmic conspiracy though did he. He said Novara "played a role in giving credence to the idea Corbyn allowed racism into the party" which is actually true, i remember their coverage at the time. They were soft on the fake antisemitism crisis. I happened to watch...

    He belligerently interrupts and shouts down most of his guests, but I've never seen him do it to the extent he did to Corbyn in the interview the other day. It was totally absurd, shouting a new question when Corbyn was only a couple of words into each answer. I wish Corbyn had managed to deal...
