Students at Leeds University sprayed "Free Palestine" on the wall, as a protest against the University allowing the chaplain to return to work, after he took leave to fight with the IDF. The chaplain has described the genocide as "the most moral thing in the world". #FreePalestine#StopIsraeliGenocide#UKPolitics#ThisIsNotAntisemitism#NoCeasefireNoVote
Public hearings on legal consequences of Israeli State practices to be held 19-26th February. Fifty-two states and three international organisations will be taking part.
South Africa repeatedly made a distinction today at the #ICJ between the government of Israel and its military vs. Jewish people and Israeli citizens. Any claims of #antisemitism are completely unfounded:
