EU antisemitism tsar lobbied against Israel sanctions The high-level EU official was lobbying against Israel sanctions using bogus claims on antisemitism, according to a "sensitive" cable from Tel Aviv leaked to EUobserver.

EU officials are playing their part as loyal members of the Axis of Genocide (Israel, US & the EU). There are only a handful of EU countries that oppose this travesty of justice openly & with clarity: Spain & Ireland, plus Norway as a EEA member.

SIGN THE PETITION: SUSPEND THE EU-ISRAEL TRADE AGREEMENT. STOP THE GENOCIDE. Right now in Gaza, people are being bombed, starved, and killed. Over 54,000 people have died β€” most of them civilians. Children are dying from hunger. Families are being shot while trying to get food...

While the genocide of Palestinians continues, the EU also continues its trade deal with Israel at €16 billion a year. This is supposed to be based on respecting human rights, which are clearly being broken. Please sign the petition: sign.myvoice-mychoice.org/forms/stop_g...

This story on privatised ethnic cleansing in Gaza isn't getting the attention it deserves.

WATCH NOW: 'Gaza: Doctors Under Attack' – The Full Film They Didn't Want You To See Exclusive: The powerful film the BBC refused to air is out now, released globally by Zeteo. It documents Israel's destruction of Gaza's hospitals and the killing of Palestinian doctors.

Gaza Doctors Under Attack: documenting Israel's genocide of doctors and medical staff in Gaza. The documentary that BBC didn't show because of its Zionist board member Robbie Gibb, who has damaged the BBC and it's credibility as a news media.

The purportedly β€˜post-colonial’ (temporal shift) world organisation has forever been a cover for western colonial world order. The benefit collected by politicians, white supremacists, & white feminists alike.
Bombing of Iran is totally unwarranted & unprovoked.
US empire is a threat to the world.

Is Fordo really the most important thing about Iran’s nuclear program or is the focus on it designed to drag the US into the war? Since Fordo is the only target that needs US planes and bunker buster bombs.

Absolutely disgusting, but it illustrates that Merz is a fascist, but a more acceptable version than the AfD for the German public; fascist light.

There is no hoodwinking; this pretension of Western leaders being naive & gullible ignores the reality of their active & enabling involvement; in contrast to colonial & genocidal times of the 19th & 20th century, it is more strategic to perform indecisiveness and innocence.
