Another Israeli-inspired smear attempt fails. People have learned a lot from the Corbyn antisemitism scam.

The ICC is now breathing down Netanyahu's neck, and Israel can expect little mercy from the ICJ given the ferocity of its genocidal attacks on the Palestinian population.

Tine for the law to take its course: I am not alone in feeling the USA and Israel need to be brought to heel. Given their unparallelled aggression this wont be easy.

In today's game of "silent bias" let's look at the language in a recent BBC News headline.

Firstly "Israel says," it "hit" something. So this is a report of a report, and the incident itself is already second hand, minimising the death, damage and destruction. Iran, unlike Israel, is credited with aggressive intent. The context, in which for example Israel has attacked eleven surrounding countries in the last year, is omitted.
