Throughout the Israeli terrorist attack on Gaza, the question I have been asked repeatedly has been "What next for Palestine"? I have resisted committing to an answer or at least to expressing a view because it is a very complicated situation to understand, analyse and then gaze through a crystal ball and see beyond the …

Former Iraqi information Minister Mohammad Saeed Al-Sahhaf I watched Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today (20 August) at his press conference, which he held with his Defence Minister Ya'alon.

Berieved parents following attack on children at Shati camp This is not an attack to stop rocket fire from Gaza. That may have been the pretext but what we see is a war on the Palestinian civilian population to force it to surrender.

I wish British Prime Minister, David Cameron had joined the demonstrations in London or Birmingham on 11/7/2024. An estimated 10,000 protested outside the Israeli Embassy in London and a further 3,000 completely blocked the second city, Birmingham's centre. Both protests were called at short notice. I attended the Birmingham protest. You could feel the anger …

Alkaware family mourn victims of Israeli terror via @alrayps The coverage by the British media of the current situation in Palestine / Israel has been extremely biased.
