“The poll also found that nearly two thirds of Britons (65 percent) want the UK to implement the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he were to visit the UK.”

According to the NGOs, the findings show “growing public pressure for legal accountability and a decisive government response”.

You only need 52% for something to be the legally binding irreversible will of the people so clearly the government have no choice but to listen to us on this

The Israelis have killed so many people. I saw a video of a girl standing in a pool of blood in an ambulance screaming that her dad was dead.

I saw a man try to rescue a boy trapped in burning wreckage with terrible burns over his body.

I saw a boy hugging the body of his dead father who went to get food for them

I saw a two year old begging the bombs to stop. He couldn’t say Gaza yet so he said it “Gaja” he had blood on his face.

I saw a boy in tears because his donkey is starving to death.

I have trauma from seeing this horror non stop for almost two years. I have my own children and I feel a pain in my chest from what is being done to children. I see Zionists say the most heartless sociopathic things on the internet in response to images of this endless suffering. Things like “FAFO” and “if Hamas surrenders this will be over”.

I have never hated anyone or anything as much as I hate israel.

I look forward to Netanyahu making his case in court and watching every argument evaporate under the sheer gravity of reality. Smotrich and Ben-Gvir, standing beside him, defiant. Gallant gave up.

If you are British and live in the UK and condone anything Israel has done, you are part of the problem historically. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have allowed for Palestine to exist, but you contributed to this mess with the Balfour Declaration.

EDIT: I am blaming the UK government and those who support the actions which in turn support Israel in this conflict.
