EU foreign ministers reject proposal to suspend association agreement with Israel
A part suspension was tabled by Ireland, Spain and Slovenia but did not receive enough backing from other member states

Yup, it's disgusting. Israel has too much dirt on people and/or is just too financially intertwined with governments around the world so no one will act to stop them. Israel needs cutting off and made a pariah or they simply will not stop, they'll keep pushing and pushing until sooner or later Muslims rally, form a massive Islamic army and roll over Israel.
Israel should be cut off from any and all arms supplies and have massive sanctions slapped on it.

Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur blocked from entering UK by Home Office
The US citizens and left-wing content creators with huge online followings were due to speak at the SXSW London festival and Oxford this week.

One side is criticising a genocidal state. One side wants a genocidal state.
Although to be fair, I don't really know what The Young Turks have said that's anti-semitic, I've tried to google it but it just comes up with anti-zionism, which in the world we live in is anti-semitic.
People from the far right that have been banned from the country call for 'remigration' which is genocide under current definitions (see Russia).

I think the point is that under Labour specifically we've seen a massive retrenchment of our long-held supposed freedoms.
How many people do we have to ban, how many people do we have to proscribe, how many people do we have to lock up in this country before we see this?

I don't know him either but if he's anything like that Hasan slimeball I can understand why he's banned. Another disgusting human being who in any other timeline would be utterly reviled. It's funny how all those bitching the loudest about being "anti-zionism, but not anti-isreal" tend to be narcissistic right-of-right-wing cunts and all around pieces of shit whose only concept of an intelligent, nuanced discussion is who can shout the loudest.

The UK recently raised its terror threat level so the folks making these calls probably a little on edge.
i assume the UK doesn’t publish official reasons for this kind of thing either which lets the folks affected control the narrative.

Death to the chief rabbi eh?
Not because he's the chief rabbi. Because he's a cunt. And we're surely able to say death to cunts eh?
And if so, then death to the idf seems logical. Because they're cunts.

Top comment of the video is kind of on point. At least somebody over there is saying it.

US to announce deal allowing Saudi Arabia a nuclear programme, reports say
The agreement would fulfil a long-held Saudi ambition but could attract concern in Israel and from some US lawmakers.

Probably belongs somewhere around here.

Just that America was all silent when the IRA was shutting down my local train station all the fucking time (amongst other things obvs) despite them being a major source of funding.

It really isn't. One was a bunch of twats in Boston with a huge dose of plastic-paddyism and the other is the entire US government subsidising an entire country's "defence" budget.

Yep. But I was actually referring to nobody speaking out.

Lots of people spoke out, surprisingly a lot of them Irish Americans. Ted Kennedy and Tip O'Neill (Speaker of the House) were vociferous critics of Noraid and the IRA. All of the major newspapers, including the Boston Globe ran exposes on them and the DOJ forced Noraid to register as "an agent of a foreign organization".
Just because we tended not to hear it doesn't mean it wasn't happening.
