「There is precious little grief being expressed for the hundreds of Palestinian children so far slaughtered in Gaza, let alone the medics, journalists or UN officials.
There is almost no opposition to bloodcurdling official Israeli statements about reducing Gaza to rubble.」
「Collective punishment - depriving a civilian population of water, food and electricity - is being openly cheered on by commentators and politicians who know it will lead to mass civilian death.
This isn't just racism that's respectable - it's murderous racism.」
「Those politicians and commentators need to be challenged - do you really believe the life of a Palestinian child has equal worth to that of an Israeli or British or US child?
And if you do, what is the evidence for it?」
「The truth is, deep down, those politicians and commentators know that they do not believe Palestinian life has an equal worth.
They should be honest - they are not driven primarily by a desire to preserve the sanctity of human life. They are racists.」
