'Home truths' from Melanie Phillips convey one message: #Israel will always be at war
In a speech filled with #slamophobic vitriol, the British commentator has ripped away the last fig leaf concealing #Zionism's true purpose

Very much in the mode of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Phillips declared that there was no such thing as #Palestine or #Palestinians. In fact, the only indigenous people around were the #Jews, who were the only people with any historic, legal or moral entitlement to this land.
To say this while activists in Britain are being arrested for shouting “from the river to the sea” as an allegedly pro-#Hamas chant, hands their defence lawyers a get-out-of-jail card.
Because what Phillips is claiming is that all the land from the river to the sea is #Jewish. And as she knows...“from the river to the sea” has been Likud policy since 1977.
Gaza: Heavy rain floods camps as #UN warns of ‘bleak’ situation

Heavy rain submerged displacement tents in the #Gaza Strip on Tuesday, deepening the suffering of #Palestinians already struggling with the hardships of being uprooted.
The downpour turned camps in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis into pools of mud and water, making movement nearly impossible, local media reported.
Floodwater seeped into many tents, endangering families and their few remaining belongings.
Cold weather has compounded the misery of children and the elderly, amid severe shortages of blankets, winter clothing and heating.

B’Tselem: Settlers unpunished for 21 killings in West Bank ‘ethnic cleansing'
With West Bank death toll since October 2023 topping 1,000, Palestinians say ‘death is inevitable’

“We are witnessing the total abandonment of #Palestinian lives,” said Yuli Novak, #BTselem’s executive director.
“The situation in the #WestBank is deteriorating by the day and will only worsen, because there is no internal or external mechanism to restrain #Israel or stop its ongoing policy of #EthnicCleansing.”
On how locals prepare for imminent attacks, the resident said there are “no options” but to remain “unwavering and steadfast” on their land.
“In Palestinian terms, our feeling is that death is inevitable, and may God accept the martyrs and grant them peace,” she said. “For Palestinians, there are no options: to stay or to stay.”

Two Palestinian boys lie next to each other at al-Wafa medical rehabilitation hospital in #Gaza.
Their mother, Aya Abu Auda, speaks to them softly, but neither child reacts.
The brothers, Elias Abu al-Jibeen, 5, and Ismail Abu al-Jibeen, 8, were wounded during Israeli bombardment on their displacement camp in Gaza City’s Tel al-Hawa neighbourhood on 31 August.
The attack left Elias completely deaf and Ismail with severe hearing loss.
Just a year earlier, Abu Auda had fled her home in northern Gaza after Israeli missiles flattened it and killed her husband.

'I'll be cheering for him': Trump has 'great' meeting with NYC mayor-elect Mamdani
The two leaders, from opposite ends of the political spectrum, appeared to have a lot more in common than expected

It was, perhaps, the warmest reception by Donald #Trump yet for a political figure diametrically opposed to his policies. The #US president has called #NewYorkCity mayor-elect #ZohranMamdani a "communist," a "jihadist", and a "Jew-hater".
#Mamdani has called Trump a "despot" and a "fascist".
But at their highly anticipated meeting at the White House on Friday, Trump lavished unexpected praise on Mamdani after their first-ever face-to-face discussion, which lasted some 40 minutes.
"I'll be cheering for him," Trump told reporters gathered around his desk, where he sat with Mamdani standing to his right.

Israeli forces stormed Kafr Aqab overnight on Friday, deploying ground forces, according to local media. Snipers positioned on the rooftops of several buildings opened fire on civilian crowds, killing two and wounding several others.
"It was only a matter of time before this happened," the resident said, noting a drastic change in the behaviour of Israeli forces in recent months.
"They’re here almost every night," he added. "[The Israeli soldiers] usually just set up positions, wait for people to get angry, act aggressively and brazenly - and then shoot."

UG Solutions, a leading #US military subcontractor that provided security for the #GazaHumanitarianFoundation (GHF), is stepping up its recruitment efforts amid possible plans for several aid distribution sites to be set up in #Gaza by next month, Drop Site has learned.
A former army officer who applied for a position as an “International Humanitarian Security Officer” at UG Solutions told Drop Site that a company official told him in a job interview at the end of October that 12 to 15 sites were being planned to open in Gaza and that the company was “going to need a lot more guys.”

#Texas Governor #GregAbbott on Tuesday announced that he is designating the Muslim Brotherhood as well as the #CouncilOnAmericanIslamicRelations (#CAIR) - the largest civil liberties group for American #Muslims - as both foreign terrorist organisations and transnational criminal organisations.
As a result, both groups would be barred "from purchasing or acquiring land" in the state of Texas, Abbott said.
The proclamation gives the state's attorney general leeway to sue the groups accordingly.

Israeli settlers torch homes and fields in fresh West Bank attack
Palestinians recall violent assault in which dozens of settlers pelted them with rocks, burned cars and wreaked havoc

Israeli settlers set fire to Palestinian homes, vehicles and farmland in the latest attack in the occupied #WestBank on Monday.
The large-scale evening assault on the town of Jab'a, southwest of #Bethlehem, left three homes torched.
Mashaaleh told Middle East Eye that the attack began as his brother was helping their sister and her children into a car parked in the family garden.
A stone was thrown at the vehicle, and when he looked up he saw two men hurling rocks. Moments later, he realised there were around 50 assailants.

South African activists allege Israel used shadowy NGO to 'traffic' Palestinians from Gaza
Flight carrying 153 Palestinians to South Africa triggers accusations that #Israel, via Al-Majd Europe, engineered scheme to remove Palestinians from Gaza

On Thursday, a plane carrying 153 Palestinians from #Gaza landed at #SouthAfrica's OR Tambo International Airport, but the plane was held on the tarmac for around 12 hours, with passengers not allowed to disembark - triggering confusion and anger against local authorities.
Activists found that not only had the South African government been unaware of their arrival, but the evacuees themselves were not in possession of any documentation or paperwork to assist with their processing in the country.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has pledged to get to the bottom of a "mysterious" plane carrying 153 #Palestinians who he said had apparently been "flushed out" of #Gaza by Israel.
The 153 men, women and children who arrived in Johannesburg on board a flight from Nairobi were detained by border police on their plane for more than 12 hours because their passports lacked an exit stamp from #Israel.
The Department of Home Affairs eventually authorised the passengers' entry into #SouthAfrica that evening, after receiving assurances from NGO Gift of the Givers that they would be taken care of.

Thousands to defy UK ban on Palestine Action in ‘historic’ mass civil disobedience
Protests to take place in 18 towns and cities across the UK, while prisoners linked to Palestine Action prepare to launch hunger strike
from #MiddleEastEye #MEE

Published date: 28 October 2025 16:15 GMT
Campaigners challenging the #UK government’s ban of direct action group #Palestine Action have announced a series of "historic" actions which they are calling the "most widespread mass civil disobedience in modern British history".
Protests will take place in 18 towns and cities across the UK next month ahead of and during next month's judicial review of the direct action group's proscription.
The ban means #PalestineAction is akin to the Islamic State or al-Qaeda in British law, and expressing support or membership of the group is a criminal offence that could lead to a prison sentence of up to 14 years.
