1/7 By me: US capitalists are wallowing in previously unimaginable quantities of unearned wealth. Silicon Valley billionaires are triumphant in their seemingly unassailable power over the world’s nation states - its central bankers, govts & markets. annpettifor.substack.com/p/dont-be-fo...

If you weren’t at @lalehkhalili.bsky.social’s keynote on Palestine, watch. If you were one of those of us in the room, watch again. Including the final film short, Larissa Sansour’s 2008 Palestinian Space Exodus

So Netanyahu is ignoring international pressure to stop, he's going against UN law and has committed multiple war crimes. The apathy and shoulder-shrugging of the so-called 'civilised' leaders is utterly disgusting. When do we start rioting?
