Schools were damaged, huge buildings were destroyed, homes were destroyed up on the heads of the residents while they slept. we speak about the destruction that israel is deliberately systematically bringing against palestinians, we are speaking about 50% of those victims massacred by israel being children and women and invalid people. we are speaking about israel targeting clinics where covid—i9 services are provided to palestinians who are plagued by the pandemic. israel is doing this and is...

Its targeting hamas, israel says that its retaliation for hundreds of rockets fired into israel. what do you say to that? of course israel is going to say that, and im sorry to say this, but the bbc itself is helping the israeli narrative. the way the reporting is being just framed, the discourse used as sectarian, the way your report has been about hate and how usually the israelis retaliate, the way israel retaliates — this is totally wrong.

In the room and put online. its outrageous, hearing the story of the 62—year—old woman who spent 22 years working for the state government, being denied her pension and being intimidated by the auditor—general and security personnel. fake or �*ghost�* pensioners are a real problem in nigeria. adding fictitious names to the payroll is one of the ways money is stolen from government funds. sometimes, there are more fake pensioners than real ones. the state that cannot have 3,000, 4,000 p...

Party in certain parts of england now, it did lend to hammering the image home. stephen, if i can ask you, i know you actually used the image in your early election write—up. there was obviously a taste for that image. do you think itjust spread like wildfire because it was a great image or do you think theres actually an issue here withjournalists and the press having a kind of groupthink? no i think to be honest it was a good image. one of the things we always struggle with injournalism is b...

Israelis retaliate, this is totally wrong. israel is targeting everybody, everybody is a target. it is not something that we feel, it is not something we have in mind. you can see this in the pictures and in the videos. this is not an israeli war on hamas or hamas members, this is a total war on each and every single child and woman and sick person here in the gaza strip. the issue here is not hamas, this is not an issue of rockets, this is an issue of brutal colonial occupation, massacring us, ...

Low—cost ikea nightmares. in each story we see a bourgeois family unit descending into some kind of feral chaos triggered by a crisis within the central white male character. the message may not be subtle but what the film lacks a new onset makes up for in terms of ambition. ——lacks in nuance. with arresting visuals and out their performances not least from that magnificent kate dickey who slips effortlessly between humour, pathos and weirdly smiling horror. you can find under guards in ci...

Still, israel is getting palestinians —— killing. there are no rockets in the west bank and injerusalem, you have seen the pick is how the racist are pied —— racist apartheid programme of israel is pushing people, to bomb us into surrender, into accepting to be occupied, we are humiliated, and never asking for our sick human rights, a right to freedom or rights for independence or rights to be treated as a human, as human beings, so this is not something between hamas or palestinian, the...
