The calculated insensitivity to Palestinian experience in @vonderleyen's statement implies that the EU does not care about Palestinians.

She does not represent us. Many many people in the EU stand in solidarity with Palestinians & condemn Israel's regime.

It's beyond disgraceful for an @EU_Commission President to allow the propaganda lie "Israel made the desert bloom" to come out of her mouth, denying the prior existence of Palestinians in their homeland. We must oppose apologism for the occupation in institutions.

A "tragedy" is a terrible event nobody is really responsible for. It is totally unacceptable for a German politician to use the @EU_Commission to minimise the historic crimes of the Nazi regime as a mere "tragedy," and in the same breath as she downplays the .

Today is . 75 years ago a catastrophe was visited on the Palestinian people - the violent beginnings of Israel's occupation. It continues today.

@vonderleyen recently described these events as a "dream." That is unacceptable, and must be condemned.

One thing to do to mark today is to have a read of the Annual Report on Conscientious Objection to Military Service 2023, published by @ebcobeoc on Friday. ebco-beoc.org/sites/ebco-beoc.

Today is International Conscientious Objectors' Day. We must uphold the right to refuse to kill. Solidarity with those bravely resisting war & conscription & all those doing the necessary work of supporting them. We must resist the return to militarism on the European continent.

MEPs talk about the disconnect in Europe, but media coverage of EU institutions is poor. The public is left in the dark. There should be a dedicated European Parliament TV channel available free on all nationalcarriers allowing citizens to see what actually goes on here every day

needs civilian government, yes, but not only. Sudan needs economic justice. It needs an end to militarised extractivism in rural communities, driven by circuits of Western capital. If we stopped paying the warlords wages, maybe then the people of Sudan would have a chance.

A @UN Working Group said recently that indefinite detention in Guantanamo Bay "may constitute crimes against humanity." Many remain there still, 20 years later, for no reason. It is time for EU countries to provide resettlement for those innocent men who've been so badly wronged.

No public consultation. No debate. A plan rushed through behind closed doors. A unilateral declaration by an unelected Commissioner that 🇪🇺 is now "a war economy," & the people of Europe have to pay for it! Well the corks must be popping in the arms industry boardrooms tonight.

Desperately disappointing to see ambition sucked out of an originally progressive report on the energy performance of buildings. We are in an emergency. Locking us into low standards and high emissions is an unforgiveable legacy to leave future generations.

Never too late to start insisting on the @UN Charter, but interesting he never comments on serial Charter-violator, the United States🇺🇸... Clearly the Tánaiste is less concerned with international law than he is about lining himself up for an EU job. irishtimes.com/politics/2023/0

I have to agree with @JoeBiden: "journalism is not a crime."

So why is his administration attempting - by continuing Trump's menacing espionage prosecution of - to criminalise journalism anywhere in the world that exposes US wrongdoing?

Make it make sense.

Absolutely brutal news Khader Adnan has now died in prison, after nearly 3 months' hunger strike, while Israeli prison authorities refused to allow him to be brought to a hospital. For as long as the EU pretends all is well with Israel, it is complicit in its abuses.

The government of Pedro Castillo was elected on the promise of radical change. He is now in jail and that change is a distant prospect, with the same old neoliberal exploitation and structural racism prevailing, and police repression for the poor and indigenous people of Peru.
