This is it. This is the baseline assumption I think we should be working from. "we are up against an ideology that has given up not only on the premise and promise of liberal democracy but on the livability of our shared world [...] The forces we are up against have made peace with mass death.

The arrest of Greta Thunberg for peacefully opposing genocide and supporting those on hunger strike is wrongful and disturbing. This is yet another shocking example of the UK’s broad terrorism laws being used to target those exercising their right to freedom of expression and assembly rights.

I am not a lawyer, just a historian, but one fundamental problem with the political debate about the EU, especially in English publications is that the whole principle of the acquis communnitaire is not understood or taken seriously. The EU is a framework of rules, not an alliance.

Sitting with, not skimming over, the words compiled in the UN Commission's report makes you howl, once again, with rage www.ohchr.org/sites/defaul...
The Commission concludes that Palestinians who were physically and
mentally harmed by the Israeli security forces’ military operations will continue to
suffer from long-term harm of such a serious nature that they will no longer be able
to lead a normal and constructive life. For example, in relation to Palestinian
children, in June 2024, UNICEF stated that “almost all of Gaza’s 1.2 million children
need mental health and psychosocial support”, especially those who were exposed
to repeated traumatic events, maimed, have lost parents and close family members,
and children with disabilities.177 According to a report published by War Child in
November 2024, almost half of 504 surveyed caregivers stated that their children
think they (the children) would die during the current war, and other children have
expressed their wish to die.178 Many Palestinians from Gaza told the Commission
that they live in extreme and constant fear for their safety since 7 October 2023.
Some of them said that their children could not think of anything but ways to survive
from being attacked daily.
