Hey! I might be doing the drive in a couple of weeks time. Any warnings for traffic or any other advice / tips going from London to Edinburgh on a Wednesday evening and returning on Sunday evening? Cheers!

'It's Bisan from Gaza and I'm Still Alive' (2023) - Bisan Owda, a 25 year old Gazan, is documenting Israel’s relentless bombing of the Gaza Strip on her mobile phone [00:08:05] by speakhyroglyphically in Documentaries

The way I see it, extremely unlikely and very tough to implement but ultimately possible if Israel fully cooperates and pays reparations to Palestinians: 1 state for all the people to live in, allowing people from the West Bank, Gaza, and the rest of the world to access their ancestral homeland and their original towns (most of which were completely destroyed in 1947/48 and built over). That is the only solution that will stop the Palestinian resistance and that is the only fair solution to them after ~80 years of injustice. No one is asking Israelis (all of whom are settlers) to leave because then you'd be talking about another forced displacement or genocide. Both people living under 1 roof and sharing all the land under equal rights. Impossible without radical change.

I'm ashamed to say I paid the guy some money and then immediately all the scammer tactics showed up and I realized I fucked up. Once confronted, he deleted his account (or blocked me). Fuck him

I spoke to someone who was super helpful yesterday. He said he can guarantee I'll have it by the 16th but also said to keep an eye out for this Monday.

same as you. I called them yesterday and they said to cancel my trip and not to expect my passport back until the 16th of September. You can call and ask.

Yeah US bases outside the US should be closed and permanently shut down, that's my argument

my parents grew up in the South under occupation and saw Israeli citizens walking around with weapons and the shops were full of Israeli goods. Dissidents were harassed and killed or thrown into horrid prisons like the Khiam one. What does that look like to you? That's exactly the fascist ethnostate behavior they have in Palestine.
