There's no need to wait.  We're already seeing in live time exactly what the US is doing.

What was Sunak's speech about on friday night? He really is a cretin of a man tbh. I think he has no more scruples than Johnson. I didn't think that was even possible but the tories can keep finding them.

Galloway an interesting one that's thrown the cat amongst the pigeons. He has a very poor record of attendance in parliament. Second only to SF apparently. I hope he throws the cat amongst the pigeons in westminster but it looks like all anyone gets is one question to Sunak a week who doesn't even answer the question anyway so it's nothing more than a circus.

(Any right thinking person , unionist or nationalist, would in the interest of themselves want away from these guys because they are robbing everyone blind and then claiming the country is broke...)

Basically ,  don't listen to George Galloway ,  and we're going to  give police  more powers to deal with  pro-Palestine rallies.

The absolute state of this speech

The man is an absolute moron. He has no idea what he is at.

It' sickening and sickening to watch helplessly. Cannot for the life of me understand why other nations in the ME are standing doing nothing. Especially Egypt. Surely evacuating women and children would be an easy start.

In years to come people will look and ask why countries did nothing...

The Egyptian army is sponsored by the Americans under the terms of the 1979 Camp David peace treaty that Sadat negotiated. I think they get around $1.5bn a year for the army. The other part of the treaty was the establishment of a Palestinian State but Israel ignored it.
Egypt is fairly fragile. They cannot aford to take any refugees, not that they should in the first place. Everyone is waiting to see what the Yanks do.

The Egyptian Army run Egypt.

Just look to what happened post the Arab spring elections which led to the Muslim Brotherhood gaining power ever so briefly to be overthrown by the Egyptian Army...

Democracy you say!

The whole of Europe you mean?

The conspiracy theory suggestion that Mossad ran Jeffrey Epstein with the purpose of entrapping the movers and shakers in western society does not seem so unbelievable.

This tells you all you need to know.

The U.N. team asked the government of Israel to give access to other U.N. bodies, including the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the occupied Palestinian Territory, so they can conduct thorough independent investigations into these allegations.

The Foreign Ministry spokesman, Lior Haiat, said, "Israel rejects the report's call to investigate Palestinian claims regarding 'sexual violence by Israeli elements.'"

Palestine's women's national team will travel to Dublin in May to face Women's League of Ireland side Bohemians in a historic friendly match.

Bohemians will host the Palestinian women's team in a friendly on May 15, the Dublin side confirmed on Tuesday - with more games likely in the future.

An agreement between Bohs and the Palestinian Football Association will see the two teams face off in a match to mark the 76th anniversary of Nakba, with the Phibsborough side declaring their 'intention to shed light on the human rights situation in occupied Palestine'.

Funds raised through the match will be used to facilitate the visit of the Palestinian football team as well as provide funds for humanitarian relief efforts in Palestine.

The game was signed off yesterday after a meeting between the President of the Palestine Football Association (PFA), Lt. General Jibril Al-Rjoub, and Daniel Lambert, Chief Operations Officer of Bohs, and Seán McCabe, Head of Climate Justice and Sustainability from the Bohemian Football Club.




According to a statement released by the Irish side, the purpose of the meeting was to 'discuss collaboration opportunities'.

It read: "President Al-Rjoub also explored potential areas of collaboration between the Football Association and Bohemian FC and a possible signing of a MoU to strengthen the historical ties between Irish and Palestinian people."

"We hope that this game can highlight the positive power of football and raise significant funds to further support humanitarian efforts in Palestine, as well as covering costs for the women's team to travel to Ireland.

"We will be announcing a series of events around the game in due course, as well as ticketing information, and hope to see a sold out Dalymount Park in solidarity with the women of the Palestinian national team and their nation."

Bohs had previously raised funds for Sport for Life Palestine through sales of their 2023 away shirt, which helped provide access to sports for children in the city of Tulkarem in the West Bank.

Club President Matt Devaney welcomed the announcement of the May fixture.

He said: "I would like to thank Ambassador Abdalmajid for her efforts in enabling this fixture and look forward to welcoming her and officials from the Palestinian FA to Dalymount Park and to hopefully raise a substantial sum to assist people in a truly dire situation."

And Ken Kiernan, Bohs women's team manager, added: "I am delighted to have the opportunity to play this fixture.
