Folks, just a quick warning: If you’re against Israel’s genocide in Gaza, avoid mastodon.online.

They deleted two of Geri’s posts.

Geri is a wonderful activist and an inspiration from the UK who has braved arrest to shine a light on Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

Do give her a follow on her new account as she lost quite a few followers during the migration.

Also, to our friends in Gaza, please don’t create accounts on this server.

Congratulations to Jennifer Robinson for her Sydney Peace Prize 2026. It's not mentioned in the attached story, however in 2022, Robinson was a member of the legal team which filed a complaint against #Israel to the International Criminal Court on behalf of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh’s family. Abu Akleh was killed and two of her colleagues injured while they were reporting on an Israeli raid in the occupied West Bank. https://sydneypeacefoundation.org.au/jennifer-robinson-to-receive-2026-sydney-peace-prize/ #Palestine #auspol

Quoting Haaretz's editor on #Netanyahu's chief of staff Tzachi Braverman, who was appointed as Israel's next ambassador to London:

[...] If Israel doesn't cancel the appointment, Britain should refuse to accept his credentials.

Braverman is facing sexual assault allegations serious enough that police offered the accuser witness protection typically reserved for organized crime cases, on top of obstruction charges and a suspected leak of a classified security investigation.

#Haaretz editor says the government may be pushing the appointment precisely to remove him from #Israel and shield him from scrutiny.

"Israeli telecom infrastructure was used to track citizens in more than ten countries over the past three years, according to a report published recently by the digital research group Citizen Lab.

The findings, reviewed by Haaretz in recent weeks, expose how efforts to upgrade phone network infrastructures built in the 1970s for the smartphone era still leave even the most advanced devices exposed to surveillance.

The report describes two separate tracking operations, each likely run by a commercial firm selling surveillance technologies to governments around the world. One was also found to have exploited Israeli geolocation technology to track targets, using networks belonging to 019Mobile and Partner Communications, although both Israeli companies denied any involvement.

A second, more sophisticated operation is linked to a Swiss firm at the center of a 2023 Haaretz investigation for supplying Israeli surveillance companies, including Rayzone, which develops and sells cyber intelligence technologies to government agencies around the world."

FREEDOM FLOTILLA COALITION ET THOUSAND MADLEENS TO GAZA CONDAMNENT L'ATTAQUE AMÉRICAINE CONTRE LA FLOTTILLE MONDIALE SUMUD La récente déclaration des États-Unis menaçant la Flottille mondiale Sumud (GSF) n'est rien d'autre qu'une reprise honteuse de la propagande israélienne visant à criminaliser la résistance non violente face aux crimes d'Israël

Alt...

L'appareil de la politique étrangère américaine a une fois de plus démontré qu'il n'était qu'un porte-voix des discours israéliens. Après avoir laissé Israël l'entraîner dans une guerre illégale et coûteuse contre l'Iran, fondée sur des renseignements fabriqués de toutes pièces et une campagne de peur, les États-Unis emboîtent désormais le pas à Israël en s'attaquant à une initiative purement civile visant à mettre fin au siège, à l'occupation et au génocide en cours dont est victime le peuple palestinien. Cela s'inscrit dans un schéma de longue date où les États-Unis sacrifient les droits, la sécurité et même la vie de leurs propres citoyens au service de la politique israélienne.

Alt...

Au lieu de condamner Israël pour avoir violé les droits de 15 citoyens américains — parmi les quelque 170 civils enlevés et brutalisés par les forces israéliennes en haute mer —, les États-Unis ont choisi de saper et de mettre en danger ceux qui cherchent à défendre les droits de l’homme et à faire respecter le droit international. Les organisateurs de la flottille n’ont commis aucun crime — seulement un acte de principe consistant à contester l’apartheid brutal par le biais d’une action directe non violente.

So there aren't "international waters" anymore, it ALL belongs to IsraHell and NO "international law," instead we have whatever Israel Terrorist State wants 🤬

Thienminh Dinh, an emergency doctor for Doctors Without Borders working in Tyre, says the truce between Israel and Lebanon is “a ceasefire in name only” and it’s preventing medics from giving adequate care to people who need it.

Speaking to Al Jazeera, she said, “Civilians are still dying, children are still being bombed, medics and journalists are still being targeted.”

A screenshot of an article from The Guardian news website. The top of the page features The Guardian logo on a dark blue header with navigation links. he article is titled "Opinion Antisemitism" with the headline "A British minority faces a murderous threat on our streets. Where are the so-called anti-racists?" and the author name "Jonathan Freedland". To the right is a portrait of a person wearing glasses and a dark suit, alongside the subheadline, "As Jews face the deadly menace of antisemitism, they should not be alone. It's time for their fellow Britons to step up". The bottom of the image includes the timestamp "Fri 1 May 2026 17.55 BST".

#Starmer has a history of #BigLies about #Israel. He repeatedly says that "Israel has a right to exist". Wrong: no country has a right to exist. This is #hasbara. This "right" is only ever attributed to Israel.

In 2022, Starmer lied on #LBC that Israel had a "right to defend itself" and a right to cut water. Again, wrong on both counts. No country has a right to defend illegal occupation. Withholding water from civilians is a war crime. It took a week of uproar before he partly retracted.

In 2020, #Starmer said "I support #Zionism without qualification". https://archive.is/WwIJz

For once he was telling the truth. He has repeatedly supported #Israel even as it committed war crimes, ethnic cleansing, and genocide.

What’s that, #Israel committing an act of piracy by kidnapping 180 people in international waters over 600 miles from said state of Israel?

And what’s that silence?

Ah yes, that ‘sound’ we’ve all come to recognise from #Starmer when it comes to responding to Israel or USA committing international crimes that impact our citizens.

#Israel is a pirate regime.

"Volodymyr Zelensky has hit out at Israel amid a burgeoning row over the purchase of grain “stolen” by Russia from occupied Ukrainian territories.

The Ukrainian president said on Tuesday that Israel’s decision to buy from Russia “cannot be legitimate business” and that Kyiv was preparing sanctions against those attempting to profit from it.

A Ukrainian diplomatic source, speaking earlier on condition of anonymity, said that if Israel did not reject the latest cargo, Kyiv would “reserve the right to deploy a full suite of diplomatic and international legal responses”.

Ukraine’s foreign ministry said on Monday it had summoned Israel’s ambassador for not acting to stop Russian shipments of grain from entering the country. Kyiv confronted Israel earlier this month over another Russian ship allowed to dock in Israel with ‘stolen’ grain.

Israel’s foreign minister said that Ukraine had provided no evidence to support the claims that the grain was stolen, accusing him of conducting diplomacy through the media.

Kyiv considers all grain produced in the four regions Russia claimed as its own since invading Ukraine in 2022, and Crimea, annexed by Russia in 2014, to have been stolen by Moscow."

From Alon's mouth to God's ears, I say.

Quote: Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu share a lot of traits. They are both solipsistic, mendacious, narcissistic, and paranoid megalomaniacs who perceive themselves as victims of a cabal of elites. Now they share something else: They have lost a war together. Driven by vanity and hubris, the U.S. president and Israeli prime minister miscalculated Iran’s mettle, and now their mutually inflicted failure is causing them considerable political harm at home. What started as a Smith & Wesson partnership has degenerated into a Thelma & Louise ending.
