The UK isn’t a dispassionate arbiter of justice in prosecuting anti-genocide activists. It has been aggressively colluding in Israeli crimes. That huge conflict of interest is the elephant in the room. Matthew Alford reads my latest: jonathancook.substack.com/p/listen-the...

This is an aid-drop off location. Every day people defend this.
For Benny, a Nahal Brigade sniper, changing roles is no longer enough. The wound he describes is already too big, it has penetrated very deep. "It started about two months ago," he testifies. "Every day we have the same mission: to secure the humanitarian aid in the northern Gaza Strip." His and his friends' day begins at 3:30 A.M. Accompanied by drones and armored forces, they set up a sniper position and wait. According to him, between 7:30 and 8:30 A.M., the trucks arrive and begin to unload their contents. Meanwhile, the residents try to move forward to get a good spot in line, but there's a line in front of them that they don't notice.

"A line that if they cross it, I can shoot them," Beni explains. "It's like a game of cat and mouse. They try to come from a different direction every time, and I'm there with the sniper rifle, and the officers are yelling at me, 'Take him down, take him down. I fire 50-60 bullets every day, I've stopped counting kills. I have no idea how many I've killed, a lot. Children."
