"UN rapporteur likens killing of Gaza children to Nazi Holocaust practices
UN Special Rapporteur on the human rights situation in the occupied Palestinian territories Francesca Albanese on Saturday compared Israel’s killing of thousands of children in the Gaza Strip to practices carried out by the Nazis during the Holocaust.
Albanese made the comment in a post on X in response to remarks by Israeli model Sarai Givaty to the Hebrew-language i24NEWS channel.
The UN rapporteur reposted part of Givaty’s interview, in which she asked: 'Is it possible for me not to feel sad about every child crying in the world?'
'I am sad. But I also realise that if we don’t act, this child will grow up to become a terrorist,' Givaty said.
Albanese responded: '(Children will grow up.) This was also the argument made by Nazi officials during the Nuremberg trials to justify why they killed children during the Holocaust.'
Throughout the war in Gaza, Albanese has taken strong positions in support of Palestinians and against Israel’s actions in the territory."

"[Blog] The ongoing ordeal of the Palestinians 'forcing them to flee!!!'
The Israelis have not only destroyed the lives of the Palestinians in Gaza but are also resorting to all sorts of nauseating strategies to get rid of the Palestinians in the West Bank.
The fascist government of Israel is encouraging Jews to settle in the West Bank. Most settlements are situated in areas in which 60% of the West Bank is controlled by the Israeli military.
Today, more than 470,000 Israeli settlers live in the West Bank, with over 700,000 living across the entire occupied territory, including East Jerusalem.
It is apposite to underline that most of the world — the United Nations, the African Union, and the International Court of Justice — view all those settlements as illegal under international law.
Under Israeli law, official settlements are approved and backed by the Israeli government. In fact, permits for settlements are given to Jews only. On the other hand, unofficial outposts are built without government permits and are 'officially' illegal under Israeli law. 'Officially' as in practice, the fascist state supports them in all circumstances, and those who contravene the laws are neither prosecuted.
(. . .)
Since the attack of October 7, Jewish settlers are feeling emboldened. The fascist government of Netanyahu is supporting the Jewish settlers fully. The Jewish settlers act with impunity and are daily enabled by Jewish security forces.
To be more clear, a settlement is an Israeli-built village, town, or city in the occupied Palestinian territory (either in the West Bank or East Jerusalem).
Since decades now, thousands of homes belonging to Palestinians have been demolished to build the illegal settlements in Jerusalem, while vast areas used for farmland (cultivation of olive trees) and grazing have been requisitioned without any form of notice.
The respectable Israeli human rights group B'Tselem (hats off to that organisation) have repeatedly said that 'more territory has been taken to build roads and checkpoints' that restrict Palestinians' movement in those areas and effectively lock out existing Palestinian landowners"

#EdSheeran #Gaza #OccupiedPalestine
PHILADELPHIA — Ed Sheeran opened a solo concert Saturday with comments about Gaza after controversy swirled around his tour and supporting acts withdrew in solidarity with opener Macklemore, who was dropped after making pro-Palestinian comments onstage.
Sheeran said he wants his music and shows to be about unity and humanity, not politics. But he said the attacks in Israel of Oct. 7, 2023, were horrific and what is happening in Gaza 'catastrophic and unjustifiable.'
'I don't want to disappoint fans, and I've never wanted to be an activist musician, but this has put me in the middle of an important and passionate argument about freedom of speech and the most complex political issue on the planet,' Sheeran said during his performance at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
The comments before a nearly full stadium came after a tumultuous week that began with rapper Macklemore, Sheeran's original U.S. opener, being dropped in response to exclaiming 'Free Palestine' during a Sept. 5 show in New Jersey.
(. . .)
Before Saturday's show, a small group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators congregated outside the stadium. Hillary Steinberg, 34, said she got concert tickets a year ago but wound up getting a refund and attended the demonstration instead, disappointed that Sheeran did not take a stand.
'I was, until this week, a big Ed Sheeran fan,' Steinberg said. 'I think all art is political, and all music is political, and so this choice — even though he was saying that he wasn't complicit — is a political choice.'"

"Macklemore Fans Ask Why 'Free Palestine' Led to Ban While Ye Remains on Stadium Bill
Macklemore’s removal from Ed Sheeran’s US tour after ‘Free Palestine’ remarks has prompted fresh criticism over Ye’s planned AT&T Stadium show
Macklemore fans are questioning why the rapper was removed from Ed Sheeran's US Loop Tour after making pro-Palestinian remarks, including calls for a 'Free Palestine,' during shows in New Jersey, while Ye remains scheduled to perform at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on November 7, 2026.
The dispute intensified after tour promoter Messina Touring Group said venues had told it they would not allow concerts with Macklemore on the lineup.
The promoter said retaining him would result in the cancellation of the tour and affect hundreds of thousands of fans.(. . .)
The comparison driving online anger is Ye's scheduled concert at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. The venue's official event page lists 'Ye Live in Dallas' for November 7, 2026, as part of the artist's stadium run.
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has faced extensive condemnation over antisemitic comments and posts, including statements in 2025 in which he praised Adolf Hitler and described himself as a Nazi. He later apologised for some of his past antisemitic remarks.
That history has made the contrast difficult for critics of Macklemore's removal to ignore, particularly because AT&T Stadium has been reported as one of the venues connected to the dispute over Macklemore's appearance on Sheeran's tour."https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/macklemore-removed-ed-sheeran-us-tour-1820169

"Ed Sheeran's tour in trouble after opening acts drop out in solidarity with rapper Macklemore
Ed Sheeran's tour of North and South America was plunged into chaos Tuesday when four of his supporting acts abruptly quit in solidarity with the rapper Macklemore, who was dropped for making pro-Palestinian comments onstage.
Hours after Sheeran posted on social media about Macklemore's ouster and attributed the decision to the tour's promoters, Irish acts Aaron Rowe and Beoga, the Danish band Lukas Graham, and Finneas posted on Instagram that they were leaving the tour.
Rowe and Lukas Graham would have been replacements for Macklemore on Sheeran's remaining U.S. dates, while Beoga had been performing several songs — including some the Irish folk band co-wrote — with Sheeran around the middle of each set. Finneas, who is Billie Eilish's brother and musical collaborator, was due to tour with Sheeran in South America later this year.
'Artists must not be silenced when they speak up for the oppressed,' Finneas said on Instagram. 'I have decided to withdraw from my upcoming tour dates with Ed Sheeran. I stand with Palestine and its people.'"

"Macklemore says he was dropped from Ed Sheeran tour after Patriots owner Robert Kraft organized boycott
The rapper performed his song 'Hind’s Hall' while opening for Sheeran at MetLife Stadium earlier this month, where he told the crowd, 'Free Palestine.'
Macklemore has been dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour after he says New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft organized a boycott among stadium owners over the rapper’s remarks in support of Palestinians.
The 'Thrift Shop' rapper posted a lengthy statement to his Instagram on Monday alleging that Sheeran was called by Kraft to inform the singer Macklemore was not welcome at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Sheeran’s tour was scheduled to play at the venue, which is owned by Kraft Entertainment + Sports Group.
'Ed also told me that Kraft had rallied some of the other stadium owners and collectively they gave him an ultimatum: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues,' Macklemore wrote.
The decision was reached after comments made by Macklemore at the tour’s New Jersey shows and 'a broader history of rhetoric and imagery that we believe has been deeply offensive and hurtful to the Jewish community,' Kraft said in a statement provided to NBC News on Monday.
Gillette Stadium seeks to create a welcoming environment for all guests,' he added.
'I would welcome the opportunity to sit down with Macklemore and discuss the facts, because ultimately our goal is the same — peace for all people, an end to suffering, and an end to all hate,' Kraft said.
He added that that the decision was not about trying to stifle Palestinian advocacy or diminishing the suffering of Palestinians. Kraft blamed Hamas, which the United States, Israel and the European Union have designated as a terrorist organization, for the actions that 'have caused immeasurable suffering for Palestinians and Israelis alike.'
'Much of my time and attention for the last decade has been focused on the fight against antisemitism and hate of all kinds, and I feel a responsibility to stand up when I believe that line has been crossed,' Kraft said.
Kraft, who is Jewish, created the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism in 2019 and is a longtime supporter of Israel. There is a page dedicated to his Israel-related philanthropic efforts on the Kraft Group’s site."

"War-damaged Gaza building collapses, killing 20 people sheltering inside
• Twenty people killed, including children, 14 injured
• About 100 people trapped in rubble of collapsed building
• Rescuers dig with bare hands due to lack of heavy machinery
• Some 2,000 damaged Gaza buildings house Palestinian families
Gaza rescuers on Wednesday searched through the wreckage of a bombed-out apartment building that collapsed overnight, killing at least 20 Palestinians including children and trapping dozens of others beneath the rubble.
Tens of thousands of Palestinians are living in some 2,000 buildings damaged by Israeli airstrikes across Gaza.
Rescue workers from Gaza's civil defence said at least 20 people, including six children, were killed and 14 others injured when the seven-storey building collapsed. Nearly 100 more people were believed to be under the rubble.
A video obtained by Reuters showed rescue workers trying to pull out two people from under a collapsed wall. Another video on social media showed Gaza's civil defence spokesperson Mahmoud Basal carrying a little girl, wrapped in a blood-stained scarf.
Raed Al-Dahshan, the director of Gaza City's civil defence service, said at least 10 families lived in the collapsed building and there was still hope of finding survivors.
'We are still hearing voices from under the rubble,' said Dahshan.Alessandro Mrakic, head of the U.N. Development Programme's Gaza office, said some U.N. agencies were taking part in the rescue efforts, which he described as difficult due to the lack of proper machinery. Egypt's relief agency was also helping.
'The situation, as you see, is tragic because we don't have the equipment and machinery that is needed. So there are actually people that are digging with their bare hands,'said Mrakic.
'There are approximately 400 buildings at risk of collapse. And we know that these buildings will collapse, especially now with the upcoming winter,' he added, referring to the potential impact of rain."

"U.K. accuses Israeli settlers of 'ethnic cleansing' in West Bank and bans their goods
British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband announced a ban on imports of goods produced in Jewish settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank on Tuesday. He called Israeli settlers 'terrorists' and accused them of carrying out 'ethnic cleansing' against Palestinians, in a strong escalation of British rhetoric.
The measures are intended to put pressure on Israel over settlement expansion, which the U.K. says is undermining prospects for establishing a Palestinian state alongside Israel, known as the two-state solution to the conflict.
In a joint statement Canada and France announced similar bans on goods from Israeli settlements, with France also pushing for a European Union-wide ban.
They added their names to Ireland, Spain, Norway, Belgium and the Netherlands who have already taken steps to restrict trade in settlement goods, or are in the process of doing so.
(. . .)
Israel has warned it will respond. Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar has threatened consequences, while far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has called for the British ambassador to Israel to be expelled.
Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has also called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to 'close the British consulate in East Jerusalem', accusing it of operating 'openly on behalf of the Palestinian Authority' and calling for a "resolute response" to what he described as British 'audacity.'"

"Qusra Under Siege
Another Palestinian village in the West Bank has been attacked by Israeli settlers. The lack of response by the army and police reveals how deeply corrupted they are by the colonialist agenda.
If you’d like to know who is sovereign in the State of Israel today, consider the fate of the village of Qusra in the central West Bank, close to Nablus. On August 9 dozens of crazed Israeli settlers began a siege of three Palestinian houses at the edge of the village, homes to the families of Yusuf Hasan, Riziq Hasan, and Qusay Abu Riddy. The settlers blocked all access roads and paths, invaded the courtyards of the houses, stoned doors and windows, cut the electricity lines and the water pipes, and prevented any supplies from entering. Inside the houses, food reserves were dwindling fast and there was very little water. Temperatures in August are over one hundred degrees Fahrenheit in Qusra. The death of the family members by thirst and starvation was definitely a possibility. One of the children was in acute need of medical care, but the settlers delayed the Palestinian ambulance coming to take her to the hospital.
All this is routine in the Palestinian West Bank. Equally routine is the response of the Israeli army and police. Soldiers arrived on August 10, fraternized with the settlers, prayed with them, and declared the area a Closed Military Zone. In theory a CMZ is supposed to exclude anyone who is not actually a resident, but the rules of CMZs never apply to settlers. They did apply to the Israeli activists who were trying to get through to the besieged families with food and water; first the settlers, then the soldiers, or both together, turned them back."

The death of the family members by thirst and starvation was definitely a possibility. One of the children was in acute need of medical care, but the settlers delayed the Palestinian ambulance coming to take her to the hospital.
All this is routine in the Palestinian West Bank. Equally routine is the response of the Israeli army and police. Soldiers arrived on August 10, fraternized with the settlers, prayed with them, and declared the area a Closed Military Zone. In theory a CMZ is supposed to exclude anyone who is not actually a resident, but the rules of CMZs never apply to settlers. They did apply to the Israeli activists who were trying to get through to the besieged families with food and water; first the settlers, then the soldiers, or both together, turned them back."

"Women's Affairs Ministry in Gaza: Extremist Ben Gafir's Abuse of Female Prisoners in Damon Prison Represents Pinnacle of Fascism and Moral Depravity
The Ministry of Women's Affairs in the Gaza Strip condemned in the strongest terms on Sunday the blatant raid and systematic abuse perpetrated by the extremist criminal Ben Gafir against Palestinian female prisoners in the Zionist Damon prison, in a scene that reflects the pinnacle of fascism and moral depravity of the enemy.
In a statement published by the Government Media Office in the Strip and reviewed by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the Ministry said that the passing of these criminal practices without deterrent international action is a disgrace that offends human conscience and international justice.
The Ministry confirmed, based on official statistics from the Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs Commission and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club, that approximately 99 female prisoners are suffering harsh conditions in detention centers. This includes about 88 female prisoners in Damon Prison (among them minors, mothers, students, medical personnel, and administrative detainees), in addition to dozens of female detainees in interrogation, isolation, and solitary confinement centers, who are facing enforced disappearance from the Gaza Strip.
Earlier, the extremist Zionist Ben-Gvir stormed the female prisoners' cells inside Damon Prison, threatening them and boasting on camera about the policies of abuse against them."
