The occupation slaughtered families as it bombed at least one residential building in Gaza City trying to murder a journalist last night, 27 May 2026. Israel perpetrated the attack as Muslim families marked Eid al-Adha, one of Islam’s two main annual festivals. The colonisers also murdered civilians in Lebanon. Warning — disturbing footage. One video is attached directly as Meta has disabled embedding. Omar al-Gedi entered the building as it burned after the night-time airstrike. He filmed hideously-wounded victims being removed as fire-fighters tried to extinguish the flames: https://www.thecanary.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/gaza-city-bombing-270526-omarelgedi.mp4 He also captured a rescue worker carrying a dead child from the…

The US government has dropped all federal charges against Ori Solomon, who is now free to leave the US and return to Israel. Solomon’s hidden, illegal biolab in a rental lock-up left neighbours and the police who entered it “deathly ill”. However, the only charges he now faces relate to illegal waste disposal. The official story now is that the lab was making unlicensed “medical testing kits”. Those, however, do not commonly make people “deathly ill”. US operates revolving door of impunity The US has a track record of turning a blind eye or dropping cases in order to allow Israelis…

MSM scrape barrel to attack Greens’ Makerfield candidate

Yesterday, Skwawkbox predicted that the ‘mainstream’ media (MSM) and Israel lobby would struggle to find anything to use against new Green party Makerfield by-election candidate Sarah Wakefield. It wasn’t a compliment. But Wakefield’s apparent silence on important issues like Gaza means that the ‘MSM’ is, as predicted, scraping right through the bottom of the barrel. So far, it’s had to pick on the blandest things imaginable — like wanting fairer farming. Their narrative of the Green Party is as dull as it is revealing. MSM panic at “decolonising” pledges The Murdoch Times has dedicated a whole, quite lengthy article and two…

Pro-Israel pressure group UKLFI demands UCU bins pro-Israel pressure motion

Zionist bully-group UKLFI is at it again, despite the referral of its senior lawyers to their regulator for its bullying. The pro-Israel pressure group is upset that the University and College Union (UCU) conference will debate a motion on… pro-Israel pressure. You couldn’t make it up, and you don’t need to. Motion 52 will call for academic freedom against “Zionist repression” and the “dangers posed by Zionist groups”. No one sensible who has been paying attention could possibly object, which of course means UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) is very offended indeed. So much so that it has resorted to its…

Scottish MSPs demand another chance to free Scotland from Westminster

Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs) have voted to demand powers to hold another Scottish independence referendum. First Minister John Swinney described independence as a “golden opportunity” that would “put Scotland’s future in Scotland’s hands”. Grasping Westminster running against Scottish interests MSPs agreed: the motion passed by 72-55, with the support of the Greens enough to see off an unholy London-centric Labour, Reform, Tory and LibDem alliance. Keir Starmer said he would not give Scots what they want. This is unsurprising. Starmer is an Establishment tool through and through, who has always treated Scottish Labour like a Westminster satellite branch. He…

“Vote in hope” – Greens announce Sarah Wakefield as new Makerfield candidate

The Green Party has announced Manchester councillor Sarah Wakefield as its new candidate for the Makerfield by-election. The announcement comes after the withdrawal of Chris Kennedy from the contest. Wakefield launched her campaign by calling on voters: Don’t vote in anger, vote in hope. There’s plenty to be angry about outside of Makerfield. From the sabotage of his own party by departing MP Josh Simons and his group, to the continued red-Tory policies of Labour under Starmer, to the racism of the Reform candidate. Voters have every right to be livid. But Wakefield is right that Makerfield needs hope. So does…

The foul racism of leading Israel mouthpieces in response to mosque shooting

Laura Loomer (screenshot). Laura Loomer is one of the best-known, most fanatical US Israel mouthpieces. She is also one of the closest to the Trump regime and has advocated feeding immigrants to alligators. She is also one of the most odious. And in response to the San Diego mosque shooting, she spewed out naked racism that would see her on trial had she — unthinkably — been a Muslim saying a quarter of the same about a synagogue attack. Two fascist gunmen murdered three Muslims in the attack. Many US ‘mainstream’ media outlets somehow managed to make it about a nearby…

Pro-Palestine Greens tell party: stop binning candidates to pander to Israel lobby

The Greens for Palestine group has issued a strong demand to its party functionaries: stop throwing our candidates under the bus to pander to the Israel lobby. The message comes after the Greens’ Makerfield by-election candidate stepped down – presumably pressured – for sharing a post about Golders Green. The group of party members wants to know – who is selecting Green candidates, party members or the Israel lobby, the Zionist Labour party and hostile press? Greens for Palestine call out cowardice dressed as pragmatism It reads: Yesterday, we witnessed yet another chilling example of the same press that has spent over…

“They have no soul but we’re stronger” – flotilla activist on Israel’s rape and violence

Australian anti-genocide activist Juliet Lamont has spoken of the horrors she and other volunteer flotilla crew members suffered after their abduction by Israel in international waters. The Global Sumud Flotilla ships were trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians under Israel’s illegal starvation blockade. Deported crew members show signs of torture and report numerous rapes and the deliberate breaking of bones. Israeli fascist minister Itamar Ben-Gvir himself posted video of the volunteers being beaten and humiliated. But after her own deportation, Lamont gave more detail on what was perpetrated on her and others. It’s truly horrific – but she and her…

The Trump regime has filed an emergency appeal to try to overturn a court ruling blocking its punitive sanctions on UN rights and international law expert Francesca Albanese. The US had targeted Albanese, as well as International Criminal Court judges and lawyers, with heavy sanctions because of their pronouncements on Israel’s genocide and other crimes in Gaza. For now, the US Treasury has been forced to lift the sanctions in response to the court order. However, the Trump administration is trying to overturn the ruling. Justice Department assistant attorney general Brett Shumate said on X that her department is applying for “emergency…

Kirklees council remains leaderless after councillors were unable to choose at a meeting yesterday; Reform are the biggest party, but short of a majority. Labour was wiped out in this month’s local elections. But the meeting saw some comedy as Reform UK’s would-be leader had to admit that neither she nor her 28 councillors understood what they were voting for. Or anything else, really: @kirkleesgreenparty Councillor Sarah Wood – Reform’s choice to lead Kirklees Council apparently doesn’t understand how the Council runs #huddersfield #westyorkshire ♬ original sound – Kirklees Green Party Reform farce Wood and her party objected that the votes…

Israeli military commander Meir Biderman has been “seriously wounded” by Hezbollah during Israel’s war of aggression on Lebanon: he commanded a unit during the Gaza genocide that murdered 6-year-old Hind Rajab, her family, and two paramedics sent to try to help them. Palestinian despatchers had agreed safe passage for the ambulance. The Hind Rajab Foundation have filed a case with the International Criminal Court over the brutal murder of Hind. Hind Rajab murderer now the one who is ‘severely weakened’ In April, Biderman announced on Israeli TV that he and his unit has “severely weakened” Lebanese resistance. Since then, Israel has…
