    > Raffi Berg may be fighting for damages, but it's really the #BBC in the dock – for being utterly wedded to an editor whose objectivity on Israel is so clearly in doubt

  2. The far right aren't even trying to play down thier bigotry. Andy Ogles thinks Muslims have no place in American society. Actually it is over privleged white conservatives who shouldn't have a place in any society, all they do is shit on society

    "NSW Premier Cancels Annual Iftar Following Deteriorating Relationship with the Muslim Community

    NSW Premier Chris Minns has cancelled the state government’s annual Iftar dinner for the second time in three years, citing “consultation with Muslim community leaders,” amid escalating tensions between the Minns government and sections of the Muslim community. Several leaders say the cancellation reflects a deeper breakdown in trust. Lebanese Muslim Association Secretary Gamel Kheir described the move as “heartbreaking,” adding that under the current climate “no Islamic leaders would have attended anyway.” Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun went further, accusing the Premier of having a “fetish” for attacking Muslims. The cancellation of what has traditionally been a symbolic gesture of inclusion during Ramadan has been interpreted by critics as a sign that relations have deteriorated beyond ceremonial repair.

    The strained relationship has been building for months, fuelled by the government’s handling of protests in Sydney, the fallout from Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to Australia, and the Premier’s refusal to apologise after police forcibly removed Muslim men praying outside Town Hall during a peaceful protest. Community advocates also point to newly introduced hate speech laws, which they argue disproportionately impact Muslim and pro-Palestine voices under the guise of maintaining public order. While the Minns government maintains its approach is focused on safety and social cohesion, critics say the pattern of rhetoric and policy decisions has created an atmosphere of alienation. As Ramadan unfolds without the state’s official Iftar gathering, many see the cancellation not as a logistical decision, but as a symbol of a relationship that has become increasingly fractured."

  4. BBC: This man was abused for appearing on a Welcome to Heathrow poster. Then he met his trolls. “Driven by what he describes as his “Islamic values” and the teachings instilled in him by his parents, [Syed Usman] Shah replied to some of the people who had sent him abusive comments. ‘I don’t judge you for them, I don’t hate you for them,’ he told them. ‘Rather I forgive you for them.’ Shah […]

  5. Curious to see that people are loudly sharing names of the alleged perpetrators, but I haven't seen anyone mention the name of the man who ran towards the danger and tackled one of the armed men.

    I wonder why. 🤔

    Ahmed al-Ahmed, I hope you have nothing but blessed days for the rest of your long and happy life!

  6. If you're posting about the Bondi shooting, please CW it.

    Also, please be aware that there's going to be a huge increase in Islamaphobia as anti-Islamic racists weaponise this to their own ends. Please report posts.

  7. I had to watch this again. It almost made me cry. I have more hope for not just Muslim Americans but the working class of the United States. I want all forms of discrimination to not be accepted in American society.

  8. It is sad that Islamaphobia is accepted in American society. It has been damaging to Muslim Americans for decades. There should be more motion to make Islamaphobia the same as other forms of discrimination like antisemitism.

  9. The unhinged acts of violence by the far right is a problem not just in my country, its a problem everywhere. But I do hope the authorities take swift action here. What is their fixation with Muslims? Bigots

  11. I have a fear that Islamaphobia and name recognition is propelling older voters to vote for Andrew Cuomo. I hope this is not the case.

    Record early voting numbers in NYC show a shift in who is turning out to vote:

  12. Sky News had a guy on who literally lay bacon rashers on his shoulders to insult Muslim people... and I just don't even know what to say about it.

    I didn't think that this would be the thing that would break me, but I'm done.

    All I can do is channel my Nanna:

    eh, ya fucking dumb dog

    We don’t have to just worry about the US. We need to worry about ourselves.

  14. Jonathan Cook: Piers Morgan Versus Palestinians
    consortiumnews.com/2025/06/05/
    The news host’s treatment of a Palestinian journalist reveals a lot about why the Western political and media class have been so comfortable watching Israel commit a genocide. By Jonathan Cook Jonathan-Cook.net I already had a very low opinion of…

  15. Here is a letter I sent to my Oklahoma state senator (and few other state senators) about why I oppose SB 942 and 991.

    The vote is supposed to happen this afternoon, so if you have a moment please consider calling or emailing your state senator today.

    =======================

    Dear Senator _________,

    I am writing you as an active member of the Jewish community here in Oklahoma, to urge you to vote no on SB 942 and 991 (both of which I understand are coming up for a vote this afternoon).

    I am asking this because I am deeply concerned with a key element of these two bills: the adoption of the IRHA definition of Antisemitism.

    Antisemitism is real and needs to be resisted, but the IHRA definition of #Antisemitism is not the way to do this, because it muddies the waters by equating political opposition to the state of Israel and its policies in Gaza and the West Bank with actual Antisemitism.

    Like many Jews (and other people of conscience), I seek to use my voice to call for peace and justice for ALL of the peoples of Israel and Palestine. Having such advocacy labeled by the state of Oklahoma as "antisemitic" is an insult to me as a Jew and a human being.

    Please vote no on this legislation, at least as long as it includes the IHRA definition of anti-semitism.

    Also, for further reading, I've attached a fact sheet about the IHRA definition of antisemitism.

    Sincerely,
    James M. Branum
