The BBC found evidence Israeli forces deliberately sniped Palestinian children — over 60% shot in the head or chest.
Israel has killed about 21,000 children in two years, with a spike even before October 7.

The SILENCE of the politico-media elites over the 8 hunger-strikers in UK jails protesting about the GENOCIDE in Gaza and their own conditions, is SHAMEFUL and a betrayal of humane values and of basic journalism too
It took the BBC until around 7pm on 10 December – when some prisoners had gone 38 days without food – to report on the hunger strike for the first time.
As an NHS doctor revealed that the hunger strikers are on a "trajectory that ends with death", @JershCarroll explores why it took the BBC so long to cover it.

Sky News interviewed a Jewish protester about Netanyahu’s UN speech.
“The genocide supporters like to point to October 7… this didn’t start 2 years ago… this is 70+ years of occupation… Israel is an apartheid, ethnonationalist state…”
Conveniently, Sky News cut the feed.

The analysis is:
- They played it at Munster games in Limerick cause they loved the late Dolores from the Cranberries
- It's a banger of a song that lends itself well to being sung/chanted in a stadium
- Other rugby fans like the tune also

It's 108 pages long.
Wow. Pretty much eviscerates the Irish legal system and the 'unfair' tactics of lawyers in Ireland 🧐 😳
