Thank you for covering Abed Abu Shhadeh‘s arrest. Unless I have missed the news, your Substack and Al Jazeera are the only two media outlets that have covered the Political analyst arrest . I had only just seen Abed Abu Shhadeh on Al Jazeera’s Inside Story. Adam Scott Bellos, another panelist member of the show and a columnist for The Jerusalem Post, was notably combative. Days later, Al Jazeera reported Abed Abu Shhadeh had been arrested. I just saw that he’s now been released. When will this end? Now we have this new chapter of the Israeli elections. I don’t think can bear to listen to our UK government and political commentators tell us “everything is ok now Netanyahu has gone”. Thank you for this piece. It’s good to have you back.

Oh, and who controls Holly-Dirt, Media, Education, the narrative?

This is not a document-film (Naza), nor a work that provides new evidence, but an ensemble account of the very same events we have learnt about from the courageous Palestinian reporters – many of whom are no longer alive – facts and truths that the Palestinians themselves have always sought to convey to us, in vain, now narrated in the first person and dispassionately by their tormentors, who are protected by anonymity. Protected out of fear of being prosecuted by the Israeli state for their revelations – certainly not for war crimes.

The funniest thing about all of this is that Azmi Bshara didn't say anything in that interview which was remotely visionary or earth-shattering. Pretty obvious stuff.

Thank you "israeli" gestapo for the advertisement, I guess. It's good for "israeli" Jews to tune into the interview, which was subtitled in Hebrew, and, due to the gestapo's stupidity, also posted in Haaretz.

Fascists are so fucking stupid.
