Ukraine’s incursion in to Kursk. Warren Thornton joins Tony and Martin online. Warren is ex military British Army and now runs his own podcast. Journalists just do what editor tells them. UK trained Ukraine troops going in to Kursk – The Times. UK trained Ukrainian soldiers ahead of Kursk attack – Times British instructors showed Kiev’s troops how to raid high-rise buildings, the paper has reported Ukrainian troops involved in the incursion by Kiev’s forces into Russia’s Kursk Region, were trained by British military specialists in the weeks before the surprise attack, The Times has reported. On August 6, Ukrainian forces launched their largest attack on Russian territory since the conflict escalated in February 2022. The advance into Kursk Region was swiftly halted by the Russian military, but Kiev’s troops still hold a number of settlements. Kiev “utilized some of Ukraine’s most battle-hardened fighters” taken from other parts of the front line during the incursion, the British paper claimed in an article on Friday.
A Ukrainian serviceman, who spoke to the Times from a hospital bed after being wounded in clashes in the Russian border town of Sudzha, said his unit had been defending Volchansk in Ukraine’s Kharkov Region when he was told that “today they were going to invade Russia.” According to the article, the members of this formation were already “specialists in street fighting,” having being involved in “some of the bloodiest battles” of the conflict, including the fight for the strategic settlement of Avdeevka in Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic, which Ukrainian troops relinquished in February. The Times reported that, “a month before they were dispatched into Kursk, some of the unit were sent to England where they underwent a few days of training alongside British soldiers.” The major focus of this training course was “raids on high-rise buildings,” it revealed. Western officials have celebrated and voiced support for the Ukrainian incursion into Kursk Region, but denied any prior knowledge of the operation or involvement in it. However, Mikhail Podoliak, the top adviser to Ukrainian leader, Vladimir Zelensky, claimed earlier this week that “there were discussions between partner forces, just not on the public level,” of the attack on Russian territory. Adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin and former Security Council secretary, Nikolay Patrushev, told Izvestia newspaper on Friday that Kiev’s incursion was “planned with the involvement of NATO and Western special services.” It was the US and its allies who “put the criminal junta at the head of Ukraine,” while “NATO countries have supplied Kiev with weapons, military instructors, and continuous intelligence while controlling the actions of neo-Nazis,” Patrushev added.
British Challenger 2 Tanks Being Used by Ukrainian Forces Inside Russia The UK says Ukraine can use British-provided weapons inside Ukraine Ukrainian troops have been using British Challenger 2 tanks inside Russia as part of the offensive in the Kursk Oblast, Sky News reported on Thursday. The report came a day after the UK Defense Ministry confirmed that Ukraine was allowed to use British weapons inside the Russian mainland. Former British Defense Minister Ben Wallace said that he gave Ukraine permission to use British-provided weapons inside Russia during his time in office. He said the only exception was for the Storm Shadow missiles, which have a range of about 155 miles. The use of British and other NATO-provided weapons inside Russia marks a significant escalation of the proxy war. Earlier this year, Moscow warned that Russian forces could target British military installations in response to British weapons being used in attacks on Russian territory. Military situation in Kursk on August 15, 2024 (SouthFront.press) “Any British military facilities and equipment on the territory of Ukraine and beyond could be a response to Ukrainian strikes with the use of British weapons on the territory of Russia,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in May. The US is also allowing Ukraine to use its weapons in the Kursk offensive. President Biden gave Ukraine the greenlight to strike Russian territory with US weapons at the end of May following Russia’s renewed assault on Kharkiv. The US maintains that Ukraine cannot use US weapons for “long-range” strikes, but it hasn’t defined a limit. Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Gen. Oleksandr Syrskyi claimed on Thursday that Ukrainian forces had penetrated 21 miles into Russian territory…
Ukraine trying to get nuclear reactor in Kirsk? Putin on the incursion in to Kursk. Pepe Escobar – Russians removed own mine fields on Kirsk border – trap? So what really happened in Kursk? Pepe Escobar An extremely serious debate is already raging among selected circles of power/intelligence in Moscow – and the heart of the matter could not be more incandescent. To cut to the chase: what really happened in Kursk? Was the Russian Ministry of Defense caught napping? Or did they see it coming and profited to set up a deadly trap for Kiev? Well-informed players willing to share a few nuggets on condition of anonymity all stress the extreme sensitivity of it all. An intel pro though has offered what may be interpreted as a precious clue: “It is rather surprising to see such a concentration of force was unnoticed by satellite and drone surveillance at Kursk, but I would not exaggerate its importance.” Another intel pro prefers to stress that “the foreign intel section is weak as it was very badly run.” This is a direct reference to the state of affairs after former security overseer Nikolai “Yoda” Patrushev, during Putin’s post-inauguration reshuffle, was transferred from his post as secretary of the Security Council to serve as a special presidential aide. The sources, cautiously, seem to converge on a very serious possibility: “There seems to have been a breakdown in intel; they do not seem to have noticed the accumulation of troops at the Kursk border”. Another analyst though has offered a way more specific scenario, according to which a hawkish military faction, spread across the Ministry of Defense and the intel apparatus – and antagonistic to the new Minister of Defense Belousov, an economist – let the Ukrainian invasion proceed with two objectives in mind: set a trap for Kiev’s top enemy commanders and troops, who were diverted from the – collapsing – Donbass front; and put extra pressure on Putin to finally go for the head of the snake and finish off the war. This hawkish faction, incidentally, regards Chief of the General Staff Gerasimov as “totally incompetent”, in the words of one intel pro. There’s no smoking gun, but Gerasimov allegedly ignored several warnings about a Ukrainian buildup near the Kursk border. A retired intel pro is even more controversial. He complains that “traitors of Russia” actually “stripped three regions from troops to surrender them to the Ukrainians.” Now, these “traitors of Russia” will be able “to ‘exchange’ the city of Suzha for leaving the fake country of Ukraine and promote it as an inevitable solution.” Incidentally, only this Thursday Belousov started chairing a series of meetings to improve security in the “three regions” – Kursk, Belgorod and Bryansk…..

Michael Hudson on the economy, debts and war. Imperialism. Kim Dotcom ..?.. web of debt in West affecting decisions. Human nature or politics? Buying US Debt Subsidizes Imperialism Michael Hudson | A piece of advice: Buying U.S. debt is to provide ammunition for U.S. military expansion The June 5 deadline referred by US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has fallen, and the US debt ceiling negotiations have entered the final congressional voting juncture. House Speaker McCarthy, who was eager to reach an agreement with President Biden, faced the threat of being kicked out because the far right of the Republican Party was dissatisfied with the negotiating plan with too many compromises. Michael Hudson : Republicans and many Democrats (including Biden) want to cut social welfare spending, such as cutting health insurance and benefits for single mothers, and they want to increase defense spending. On top of that, they want tax cuts for the financial sector, real estate and insurance, they just want to spend money for the financial sector and the rich one percent. Under Trump, the U.S. government has slashed taxes without cutting spending, and in fact increased military spending, so now the government has to borrow money to get by. All the arguments on TV are saying, look at these government deficits, we can no longer support the US government spending money like this, they just want to create a sense of fear so that they can cut social welfare spending on ordinary people and keep spending on the military . That’s what Republicans say. They kept discussing the China threat theory, saying that we should protect Taiwan from mainland China and help Taiwan fight against China. This is the focus of the bipartisan debate on the debt ceiling negotiations. The U.S. government pays its debts, and the Treasury always has the capacity to pay them. The U.S. government simply doesn’t care about Congress’s proposal to cut the debt because Congress already supports all of their spending programs. So, if Biden says, we have to agree with the Republicans on cutting social welfare spending, because Biden and the Democratic leadership have essentially become Republicans….
Bob Crow on why the BNP is thriving in Barking and working class areas. How the mood and trajectory of Britain changed under Thatcher. Exit Europe from the left Bob Crow Most Britons dislike the European Union. If trade unions don’t articulate their concerns, the hard right will For years the electorate has overwhelmingly opposed Britain’s membership of the European Union – particularly those who work for a living. Yet while movements in other countries that are critical of the EU are led by the left, in Britain they are dominated by the hard right, and working-class concerns are largely ignored. This is particularly strange when you consider that the EU is largely a Tory neoliberal project. Not only did the Conservative prime minister Edward Heath take Britain into the common market in 1973, but Margaret Thatcher campaigned to stay in it in the 1975 referendum, and was one of the architects of the Single European Act – which gave us the single market, EU militarisation and eventually the struggling euro. After the Tories dumped the born-again Eurosceptic Thatcher, John Major rammed through the Maastricht treaty and embarked on the disastrous privatisation of our railways using EU directives – a model now set to be rolled out across the continent. Even now, the majority of David Cameron’s Tories will campaign for staying in the EU if we do get the referendum the electorate so clearly wants. And most of the left seems to be lining up alongside them. My union stood in the last European elections under the No2EU-Yes to Democracy coalition, which set out to give working people a voice that had been denied them by the political establishment. We also set out to challenge the rancid politics of the racist British National party, yet the BNP received far more media coverage. Today it is Ukip that is enjoying the media spotlight. Its rightwing Thatcherite rhetoric and assorted cranky hobby horses are a gift to a political establishment that seeks to project a narrow agenda of continued EU membership.
Roger Leivers on the Nazi scientists in Farm Hall after WW2 – what they said about nuclear science. Atom split in Berlin before WW2. Lord Peter Rickets on the Kursk incursion. Farm Hall. The German scientists were there for just 6 months in 1945, but from the summer of 1942, three years before they arrived, Farm Hall operated as an agent transit point known as Station 61b. Requisitioned by the RAF it became a vital link between London HQ and RAF Tempsford. Agents from almost every occupied country passed through the property under the watchful eye of Wing Commander Cautley Nasmyth Shaw and his team. Find out about the people who ran the Hall, some of the agents who passed through (and what happened to them), Crommie the Golden Cocker Spaniel, the V1 attack, Wadim (one of Hitlers top 100 prisoners of war who came to Fam Hall to recover from his ordeal) and so much more. Requisitioned by the RAF it operated as a transit point for agents heading to occupied Europe…. 79 years ago today ten German Nuclear Scientists listened to the BBC News in this room at Farm Hall and were stunned to discover that America had dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Our towns connection to the nuclear arms race was sealed. With the success of Oppenheimer interest in Farm Hall and Operation Epsilon grew massively. ‘Farm Hall’, a dramatised version of the transcripts made its debut at the Jermyn Street theatre in central London a couple of years ago, followed by ‘Operation Epsilon’ at the Southwark Playhouse. This play was a re-boot of the original that toured the west coast of the USA over ten years ago. The Huntingdon Drama Club’s highly impressive recent run saw all time record attendances, and the fastest selling production in their history. AND if you missed it then ‘Farm Hall’ is back on the London stage at The Theatre Royal, Haymarket featuring the original cast
Kevin Cahill, author and journalist, on the Crown Estate, and how King Charles is the largest legal land owner in the World. King has power to appoint people in UK. Increase in offshore wind farms – King owns seabed. Offshore wind boom gives King Charles a 45% pay rise Public funding increase for UK royal family casts doubt on likelihood of paring back the institution Long before Charles III became King, people close to him were trailing the prospect of a “slimmed-down, modernised” British monarchy once he acceded to the throne. So it was something of an about-turn when the Treasury announced last month that, far from cutting the royal cloth to match the times, the monarchy would instead be getting a pay rise of about 45 per cent. The increase in public funding — from £86.3mn this year and next to £124.8mn in 2025-26 and £126mn in 2026-27 — is driven by one of the more contentious sources of royal income. The Crown Estate, which controls the monarchy’s legacy portfolio of assets, is set to earn more than £8bn up to 2031 from a boom in revenues from offshore wind projects. This is because since 1964 the estate owns the seabed up to 12 nautical miles from Britain’s coast. The royal household receives a percentage of the estate’s profits in an annual payment known as the sovereign grant. In January the King said that the monarchy would do without its share in the renewable energy bonanza for “the wider public good”, in what was widely seen as a smart move, heading off potential controversy at the start of his reign. Accordingly, trustees of the sovereign grant — prime minister Rishi Sunak, chancellor Jeremy Hunt and treasurer to the King Sir Michael Stevens — revised down the percentage of Crown Estate profits accruing to the monarchy from 25 to 12 per cent. But even after this, the King’s household income will shoot up in cash terms because of the overall increase in Crown Estate profits, the Treasury forecasts. This is the result of a radical change in the way the monarchy is funded that was introduced a decade ago by then-prime minister David Cameron. In 1760 George III surrendered hereditary revenues from the Crown Estate in return for a fixed annual payment. Between then and 2012, the monarchy was financed by a discretionary amount set by government and approved by MPs. But Cameron changed the formula so that public funding of the royal household came instead from 15 per cent of the profits of the Crown Estate, all of which previously accrued to the Treasury. The government also guaranteed that the grant would never be lower than the year before, by agreeing to make up the difference if the estate’s profits fell…
Republic group – MI5 swoop raid before they protest. Voting machine fixing US. Republic – why they want the Monarchy to go. Coronation: Met expresses ‘regret’ over arresting six anti-monarchy protesters The Metropolitan Police has expressed “regret” over the arrests of six anti-monarchy protesters on Coronation day. Republic chief executive Graham Smith, who was among the group, said he has now received a personal apology from police officers. He said he did not accept the apology and would take legal action after no charges were brought against him. The Met also confirmed, external it had used a controversial new law to detain the group. Mr Smith said a chief inspector and two other officers visited his Reading home on Monday evening to issue the apology. He told PA news agency: “They seemed rather embarrassed to be honest. “I said for the record I won’t accept the apology. We have a lot of questions to answer and we will be taking action.” Mr Smith, who is from Bristol, earlier said he wanted a “full inquiry” into the “disgraceful episode”. The Met said a review found there was no proof the six protesters, who were detained when their vehicle was stopped near the procession route, were planning to “lock on”, a protesting tactic which is now banned. Recent changes to the law, passed last week, make it illegal for protesters to use equipment to secure themselves to things like railings. The Met said the group of six were detained after items were found in a vehicle which officers “had reasonable grounds to believe could be used as lock on devices”. But the force said it was “unable to prove intent to use them to lock on and disrupt the event”.
The estimated total annual cost of the monarchy is £345m – The True Cost of the Royals The estimated total annual cost of the monarchy is £345m The monarchy is expensive, very expensive. Of course it wouldn’t matter if it were free – the cost to our democracy would still be too high – but when the palace tells you it’s “value-for-money”, don’t believe them. We could get much better for far less. A symptom of a bigger problem The huge waste and extravagance of the monarchy is a symptom of the main problem: the palace is totally unaccountable and is able to operate with a far greater degree of secrecy than any other part of the state. It also clearly has considerably lobbying clout within government, which explains why the government hasn’t cracked down on royal spending. How is the monarchy funded?The monarchy has never been funded like other public bodies, which are usually set an annual budget based on what they actually need to spend. Until 2013, the costs of the monarchy – that’s the King in his role as head of state and the other working royals – were funded by a civil list payment and a number of separate grants covering travel, property maintenance, communications and other expenses. All these costs have now been rolled into one single annual payment called the “Sovereign Grant”. This has been set at 25% of surplus revenue from the crown estate – a publicly-owned property portfolio – resulting in a payment of £76.1m for 2017/2018. However, the Sovereign Grant is just one part of the total cost of the monarchy. The royal family’s security bill is picked up by the metropolitan police, for example, while the costs of royal visits are borne by local councils. Meanwhile, income from the Duchy of Lancaster and the Duchy of Cornwall – despite belonging to the nation – goes directly to the King, depriving the treasury of tens of millions of pounds every year. When all this hidden expenditure is included, the real cost of the monarchy to British taxpayers is likely to be around £345m annually.
Activist King Charles will bring down monarchy – Campaign group Republic has branded Prince Charles ‘a gift’ to the republican cause today following fresh revelations about his political ambitions. Republic’s CEO, Graham Smith said today: “Charles seems hell-bent on breaking the Britih constitution and interfering in the democratic process. That will lead to conflict that can only end with the abolition of the monarchy.” “Charles is a real danger to British democracy, and a great advert for ending the monarchy and electing our next head of state.” “If Charles speaks up on controversial issues when King he will come into conflict with public opinion and the elected government. That’s an intolerable and untenable situation.” “We can avoid that scenario by moving to an election for the Queens successor. If Charles then wants to speak out he can stand for election.

John Birt, ex Director General of BBC, and a former Marine, on how Lady Diana was being spied on by MI5, GCHQ and British Intelligence which then Prince Charles controlled. Diana ‘No Regrets’ over Martin Bashir’s Interview 1995 BBC Director Generals testify in April 2022 ‘An embarrassing exercise as the BBC destroy one of their best reporters.’ Diana had ‘No Regrets’ over Bashir’s Panorama Interview. 1995 BBC Director Generals testifyTwo DGs Evidence Diana Had ‘No Regrets’ Over 1995 Martin Bashir Interview which began as Panorama Royal Surveillance investigation Princess Diana had ‘no regrets’ over Bashir interview and image of her as ‘foolish’ is offensive, her biographer claims Diana had “no regrets” over her interview with Martin Bashir – and the image of her as a “foolish” woman who was conned is offensive, her biographer claims. Tina Brown said Diana was no “vulnerable victim of the media” and felt “pleased” about the Panorama interview. In May, a bombshell report into the 1995 chat found that ex BBC journalist Bashir acted in “serious breach” of the broadcaster’s guidelines to secure the interview.Princes William and Harry both condemned the journalist in separate statements, while Diana’s brother Earl Spencer told of his fury and horror.Lord Dyson’s report revealed Bashir fabricated information to “deceive” Diana into agreeing to talk.He commissioned fake bank statements to persuade her that officials were being paid by MI5 and the media for information about her, before showing them to Earl Spencer to win his trust. The reporter also told Diana her phone was bugged and Prince Charles was having an affair with their sons’ nanny, Tiggy Legge-Bourke.Blameless Ms Legge-Bourke – who now goes by Tiggy Pettifer – has been paid “substantial” damages by the BBC for the smear.After being presented with the deceit, Diana granted Bashir an interview – famously revealing “there were three of us” in her marriage to Charles.But Ms Brown told the Telegraph the princess has been portrayed as a “foolish, duped child” in a way she finds “offensive”.“While strongly sympathetic to her sons’ pain, I find it offensive to present the canny, resourceful Diana as a woman of no agency, as either a foolish, duped child or the hapless casualty of malevolent muckrakers,” she said.Following Lord Dyson’s report, William issued a rare on-camera statement telling of his “indescribable sadness” and belief that the BBC’s failures “contributed significantly to her fear, paranoia and isolation”.And Harry said: “The ripple effect of a culture of exploitation and unethical practices ultimately took her life. However, Ms Brown said the princess “didn’t have a bad word to say about Martin Bashir” and the interview left her “with the public in the palm of her hand”.The Palace Papers: Inside the House of Windsor the Truth and the Turmoil, by Tina Brown, is published on April 26.
Kevin Cahill on his own lawsuits against mass surveillance in UK. Susan Wadjishi, who was censoring medical information on You Tube, has died aged 56 from cancer. UK mass surveillance found unlawful by Europe’s highest human rights court The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights today ruled that the UK’s mass interception programmes, disclosed by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, unlawfully breached citizens’ rights to privacy and free expression. Campaign groups Big Brother Watch, Open Rights Group, English PEN computer science expert Dr. Constanze Kurz brought the challenge following Mr Snowden’s revelations in 2013, joined by Amnesty International, Liberty, Privacy International, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism and others. The judgment confirms definitively that the UK’s bulk interception practices were unlawful for decades, a finding that vindicates Mr Snowden’s whistleblowing. Documents provided by Mr Snowden revealed that the UK intelligence agency GCHQ was conducting “population-scale” interception, capturing the communications of millions of innocent people. The mass spying programmes included: In September 2018, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that the UK’s mass interception programmes breached the European Convention on Human Rights as they lacked adequate safeguards. The landmark judgment marked the Court’s first ruling on UK mass surveillance since Mr Snowden’s revelations. However, the campaign groups argued that the judgment did not go far enough in declaring the mass surveillance practices unlawful, pushing the case up to the Grand Chamber. End to end safeguards Today, the Grand Chamber judgment upheld that the bulk interception had unlawfully breached citizens’ privacy and free expression rights and elaborated on the need for “end to end safeguards” throughout surveillance practices to respect fundamental rights. The judgment means that bulk surveillance in the UK and across Europe will require prior independent or judicial authorisation, checking for adequate “end to end safeguards”, from the initial collection of data to the selection of items for storage. In July 2019, the Grand Chamber heard Big Brother Watch & others’ case against mass surveillance practices by the UK government. The hearing saw Government lawyers defending bulk surveillance practices and automated processing to sift through billions of intercepted calls, texts, emails and internet records. The UK Government even admitted that the court’s confidential emails could be scooped up by UK intelligence agencies. The Government admitted that the purpose of bulk surveillance “is not to search for the communications of identified targets” but to gather mass data and decide “who should be a target”.

Ten Palestine Action campaigners charged after ramming Bristol Elbit building with a van. Demo to support them in Bristol Saturday lunchtime. Three more charged over ram raid attack on Elbit Systems in Bristol Seven have already been charged and a demonstration of support for what are now being called ‘the Filton 10’ is planned in Bristol on Saturday Three more people have been named and charged in connection with an incident which saw pro-Palestine activists smash their way into a Bristol factory owned by an Israeli arms company. The three have all been charged with criminal damage and aggravated burglary and one has also been charged with violent disorder in connection with the action at defence technology firm Elbit Systems in Filton, north of Bristol, earlier this month. The three join seven others who have been charged following the action on August 6. They were all arrested and detained under anti-terrorism legislation and the CPS said it will submit to Westminster Magistrates Court later today (Friday) that the offences they are charged with ‘have a terrorist connection’. A demonstration in support of those charged has been scheduled for Saturday lunchtime in Bristol city centre. The latest charges bring the total number of people charged in connection with the incident to ten. The incident earlier this month saw activists from Palestine Action force their way into the Elbit Systems building and began smashing up equipment inside. For years, demonstrators have staged protests which block the entrances to the Bristol base of the Israeli defence firm, and occasionally have accessed the building’s roof, but the August 6 action was the most serious so far. The three charged overnight with criminal damage and aggravated burglary are: Ian Sanders, 45, from Regent Place, Royal Leamington Spa in Warwickshire; William Plastow, 33, of High Croft Avenue in Manchester and Madeline Norman, 29, from Wester Drylaw Drive in Edinburgh – she has also been charged with violent disorder. Despite happening in Filton, the investigation into the attack on Elbit Systems is being lead by Counter Terrorism Policing South East. Their spokesperson said: “The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will be submitting to the court that these offences have a terrorist connection. “The charges are in connection with an incident which happened last Tuesday (6 August), where a group of people forced their way into the building of defence technology firm Elbit Systems UK, causing extensive damage. Employees of the company and two police officers were seriously assaulted,” they added.
The three join seven others charged with a range of offences including criminal damage and aggravated burglary, following the attack on Elbit Systems in the early hours of Tuesday, August 6. They are: Samuel Corner, 22, of Rock Hill, Georgeham in Devon, who is charged with violent disorder, GBH with intent and two counts of ABH; Leona Kamio, 28, from Clifden Road in Hackney, London, who is charged with violent disorder; Hannah Davidson, 51, from Calder Gardens in Edinburgh; Charlotte Head, 28, from White Ash Glade in Caerleon, near Newport, who is charged with violent disorder; Zoe Rogers, 20, from Selborne Road in Southgate, north London, who is charged with violent disorder; Jordan Devlin, 30, from Stoke Newington High Street in London, who is charged with violent disorder, and Fatama Rajwani, 20, from East Mitcham in South London, who is also charged with violent disorder. A woman from South Wales, who has not been named by police, was arrested in connection with the investigation, but has since been released with no further action taken by police. The seven already charged appeared in court earlier this week and have been remanded in custody. All those arrested following the action on August 6 were detained under the Terrorism Act, which gave police seven days to hold and question them before they had to be charged or released. There were demonstrations by pro-Palestine activists outside police stations across the country where those detained were being held in the past week. Within hours of the attack in Filton, Palestine Action released videos and photographs of the action they took at Elbit Systems. Afterwards, a photograph of the first six arrested and charged, calling them the ‘Filton 6’ earlier this week, as a fundraiser was launched to support their defence.
Al Tabin Massacre: 100 Palestinians killed by Israel while praying in Gaza school. Al Jazeera report – US sends £20bn worth of weapons to Israel. Anti-war.com – letter to Blinken from journalists asking US to stop sending weapons to Israel. Exclusive: Al-Tabin attack ‘deliberately timed to cause maximum casualties’ The Israeli attack on the school in Gaza City that killed more than 100 displaced Palestinians was ‘calculated’ to cause widespread loss of life, Al Jazeera probe finds. Gaza Al Jazeera’s Sanad verification agency has probed the details of Israel’s Saturday morning attack on Gaza City’s al-Tabin School, which killed more than 100 people, including women and children. The investigation determined the attack was “deliberately timed to cause maximum casualties”, with a “large number of displaced people deliberately targeted,” it said in a statement on Tuesday. To reach its findings, Sanad examined survivors’ testimonies, photos of the remnants of bombs used in the attack, images showing how the bombs penetrated the ceilings of the mosque attached to the school, and documentation of the explosion’s immediate aftermath. Based on the evidence, Sanad said Israel’s military fired the two guided missiles used in the attack to coincide with dawn prayers. The missiles “penetrated the mosque’s roof, passed through the first floor, where the women’s chapel is located, and exploded on the ground floor, where the men’s chapel is situated”, Sanad said in its report. The agency added that fragments of at least two shells used in this targeting were of the American GBU-39 SDB type, confirmed by weapons expert Trevor Ball. These type of shells are manufactured and exported to the Israeli army by the American company, Boeing. Regarding the location and time of impact of the two guided missiles, Sanad said, “It is clear that the choice was not random.” “The southern missile landed at the beginning of the chapel area as prayer was beginning, while the northern missile landed in the sleeping area and near the ablutions and bathrooms where the displaced people were preparing for prayer,” the agency said.
Another exclusive report from Wafa AlUdaini, journalist, from inside Gaza. Out of over 100 civilians that Israel cold-bloodedly killed, they singled out 19 and falsely claimed they were Hamas members. Four of them were from the Jaabari family, whom I personally know.They never engaged in any political or military activities. Another was an imam, one was my neighbour from the Habib family who had a serious dispute with Hamas, and a university professor from the Kahlout family who never participated in any political work. Israel lives on lies. So far, of the 19 names listed by the Israeli army as “eliminated terrorists” in the Tabi’een School massacre: – 3 were killed in prior incidents. – 3 are elderly civilians with no military ties: a school principal, a deputy mayor and a university professor. – 6 are civilians, some even opposed to Hamas. Israel is ‘falsely claiming’ victims in Tabin school are Hamas Chairman of the Geneva-based Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said Israel is falsely alleging that the 19 Palestinians, who were killed among more than 100 others killed in the bombing on Tabin school, were members of Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. On a post on X, the Palestinian national Ramy Abdul said that four of those 19 were from a family whom he knows, another one was an Imam at the mosque who “had a seroious dispute with Hamas”, and a third was a university professor, who never took part in politics.
Radio New Zealand – Geneva Conventions don’t work. Israel has achieved all they can in Gaza – NY Times. Gaza ceasefire talks in Qatar. David Lammy in Israel – attacks in West Bank. Marking the 75th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions On the 12 August 1949, fifty-eight countries, hoping to limit the kinds of horrors seen during the Second World War, signed the four Geneva Conventions. Waikato University’s International Law professor Alexander Gillespie joins us Gaza, Ukraine conflicts increasing Geneva Conventions violations: Red Cross International humanitarian law violations should not be normalised, ICRC warns, noting 120 global conflicts as it marks Geneva Conventions’ 75th anniversary. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has called on the world to respect the Geneva Conventions as the international treaties setting out the rules of war mark their 75th anniversary. The rule book for the conduct of war is under strain and often disregarded, ICRC President Mirjana Spoljaric said on Monday. Conduct in conflicts such as in Gaza, Ukraine, Syria and Myanmar illustrate that the conventions are being largely ignored and a new commitment to international humanitarian law is needed, advocates say.
Peter Ford, former Ambassador, on how the BBC never criticizes Israel. Youth Demand, pro Palestinian group, try to disrupt the King’s Speech Dozens of arrests at Youth Demand pro-Palestine protest ahead of King’s Speech Youth Demand had pledged to disrupt the State Opening of Parliament but appear to have been thwarted by Scotland Yard Dozens of members of the pro-Palestine protest group Youth Demand have been arrested by police as part of the Met’s policing of the King’s Speech. Metropolitan Police officers could be seen searching through the bags of activists in Victoria Embankment Gardens on Wednesday morning. Further officers rolled up Palestinian flags, packed away audio equipment including a microphone and speaker and dismantled a pro-Palestinian banner. City of London Police officers were also present at the park. In a statement on Wednesday morning, Scotland Yard said: “There’s a significant policing presence in central London ahead of the State Opening of Parliament. “Last week, Youth Demand said they planned to disrupt the event. “An hour ago, officers arrested 10 of them in Westminster on suspicion of conspiracy to cause public nuisance. “A further 20 to 25 have now gathered in Victoria Embankment Gardens and further arrests are being made.” Youth Demand drew heavy criticism for a protest outside Sir Keir Starmer’s home. In an email sent on Saturday evening, the group, boasted of plans to cause chaos. In an email, the group said: “Youth Demand will be disrupting the State Opening of Parliament. “We disrupt because it is our duty to fight back in every way we non-violently can and because we refuse to despair, but instead are full of hope that another way is possible.”

Thomas Suárez on Palestinian camps. Justifying Slaughter: How the Cult of Messianic Zionism Conquered the West | Thomas Suárez Acclaimed author and researcher Thomas Suárez, a former West-Bank resident and faculty member of Palestine’s National Conservatory of Music, appeared at UMass-Amherst on April 16 to talk about the historical roots of Israel’s ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestine, the complicity of Western governments in manufacturing consent to the continuing horrors unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank, and what it will take to fundamentally transform Israel’s current apartheid policies and liberate the Palestinian people. Suárez, who is also a professional concert violinist and world-renowned cartographer, is the author of four books based on exhaustive archival research into the history of Zionism, Zionist terror, and Israel’s formation. Thomas Suárez’s most recent book is Palestine Hijacked: How Zionism Forged an Apartheid State from River to Sea, which Noam Chomsky called “a damning story, heavily documented … far too revealing to be tolerated.” His previous book, State of Terror: How Terrorism Created Modern Israel, was praised by the eminent Israeli historian Ilan Pappe as “a tour de force that looks boldly at the impact of Zionism on Palestine and its people in the first part of the 20th century,” and “the first comprehensive and structured analysis of the violence and terror employed by the Zionist movement, and later the state of Israel, against the people of Palestine.”
Max Blumenthal interviews Ifan Pape ….. Since the Holocaust, it has been almost impossible to hide large-scale crimes against humanity. In our communicative world, few modern catastrophes are concealed from the public eye. And yet, Ilan Pappe unveils, one such crime has been erased from the global public memory: the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in 1948. But why is it denied, and by whom? The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine offers an investigation of this mystery. Ilan Pappé is a professor with the College of Social Sciences and International Studies at the University of Exeter in the UK, director of the university’s European Centre for Palestine Studies, co-director of the Exeter Centre for Ethno-Political Studies, and political activist. He was formerly a senior lecturer in political science at the University of Haifa (1984–2007) and chair of the Emil Touma Institute for Palestinian and Israeli Studies in Haifa (2000–2008). Pappé is one of Israel’s “New Historians” who, since the release of pertinent British and Israeli government documents in the early 1980s, have been rewriting the history of Israel’s creation in 1948, and the corresponding expulsion or flight of 700,000 Palestinians in the same year.
