How does the IDF’s video clip prove al-Shifa hospital was a Hamas headquarters?

Invasion of the liars: IDF troops in al-Shifa hospital.

Is anybody else struggling to believe Israeli propaganda saying that a video clip showing Hamas hostages being escorted into al-Shifa hospital in Gaza means that place was a terrorist HQ.

According to the BBC,

The video showed two hostages being brought into the hospital, Gaza’s largest and most modern.

Armed men can be seen in the CCTV video which is date-stamped 7 October. One of the hostages appears to be resisting – the other is shown on a stretcher.

Here’s part of it:

Hamas has expressed surprise at the allegation – saying the organisation had made it clear that many hostages had been referred to hospitals:

“BREAKING: HAMAS OFFICIAL STATEMENT EXPOSING ISRAEL ON AL- SHIFA HOSPITAL Izzat Al-Rishq; “Regarding what the spokesman for the terrorist enemy army said about the arrival of prisoners of the occupation to Al-Shifa Hospital, we said early on that the resistance transferred many prisoners of the occupation to hospitals to receive treatment and undergo surgical operations, especially after some of them were injured as a result of the occupation’s aircraft bombing them. We risked our fighters to guarantee the injured prisoners the best treatment. Possible in hospitals in the Gaza Strip. We have published many pictures about this; Now their army spokesman presents it as if they have discovered something great. What the spokesman for the occupation army says completely condemns them. These are points that are recorded for us and not [against] us. Taking care of the prisoners, treating them, and giving them possible medical care is a point for us and not [against] us.””

The line about some hostages being injured as a result of IDF airstrikes ties in with another Israeli claim – that Corporal Noa Marciano, 19, was killed after being taken into al-Shifa hospital with minor injuries.

From the BBC article:

“This morning we updated Noa’s family that according to our findings, she was kidnapped to a safe house near Shifa,” Rear Adm Daniel Hagari, IDF chief spokesperson told reporters.

“During IDF air strikes in the area, the Hamas terrorist who was holding Noa was killed and she was wounded in the air strike, but not a life-threatening injury. Noa was taken inside Shifa hospital, where she was murdered by another Hamas terrorist.”

Hamas has previously claimed Ms Marciano was killed in an Israeli air strike, which the IDF said occurred on 9 November.

Where is Israel’s proof that Cpl Marciano was killed by a Hamas terrorist?

And the IDF “released a video that it said showed a tunnel 10m (33ft) below ground that runs for 55m up to a closed and reinforced door. It said this was now part of the evidence that “clearly proves” numerous buildings in the hospital’s complex have been “used by Hamas as cover for terrorist infrastructure and activities”.”

But we knew tunnels under al-Shifa hospital were dug by the Israeli government itself, back in 1983 or thereabouts. Don’t we?

And yet, Israel’s outriders in the social media are crowing as if these unproven claims – the BBC has said it

has not been able to verify the video which was presented at a news briefing by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Sunday.

The latest video is not yet the evidence that’s been promised of the sort of vast and intricate operation depicted in a computer simulation which the IDF previously released showing what it believes any Hamas base underground at al-Shifa could look like.

Believe it or not, the BBC has been slammed by the Israel apologists for this reality check (apologies for the language from Sussex Friends of Israel; it is what it is):

The reservations expressed by the BBC interviewer and interviewee seem entirely reasonable to This Writer.

But many of – sadly – the usual suspects seem ready and willing to accept the flimsiest claim if it comes from the Israeli government and/or the IDF.

Here’s what Israel is saying:

And here come the apologists:

What? Irrefutable evidence that al-Shifa hospital was the Hamas HQ and execution dungeon?

Has anybody – trustworthy – seen this irrefutable – evidence?

Al-Shifa is the best-equipped hospital in the Gaza strip, though; that’s most likely the reason for any hostages being taken there for treatment.

Now here’s Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy:

He was followed by eager supporters:

But it gets worse:

What does it mean? It means this:

Let’s see what happens. Expect an unrestricted Israeli onslaught, with absolutely no quarter given for UN representatives, non-governmental organisations, members of the World Health Organisation or anything else.

Meanwhile, let’s remind ourselves of some genuine facts:

Regev was inadvertently confirming the plentiful evidence that it was Israeli missiles, fired indiscriminately at cars and homes, that burned alive both Hamas fighters and Israeli hostages. The atrocity of burned bodies – blamed by the entire western political and media class on Hamas, and cited as justification for the current genocidal rampage in Gaza – were, in fact, Israel’s doing. What proportion of the 1,200 Israelis who died on Oct 7 were killed by Israel’s actions? We can assume Israel will not be forthcoming with that information. Will the western media start changing its simple-minded, genocide-justifying narrative of Oct 7? Don’t bet on it. Ali Abunimah’s story here: electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abun My story, What the BBC fails to tell you about October 7, here: jonathan-cook.net/blog/2023-11-0

Sadly, while Israel’s lies may kill many, the facts can’t bring anybody back to life.

Something for the weekend: It’s the End of the Tories and they Know It (do you feel fine?)

Kudos to Politics Joe and Swedemason for putting this together.

In one of my other lives, I play a cover of the REM version of this song in a band; now I’m wondering if we can change the lyrics…

Vox Political reacts to Jeremy Hunt’s Tory conference speech [VIDEO]

Here’s a new thing for This Site: a video reaction to a politician’s speech.

I apologise in advance for the state of my face; I’m getting over an illness so I’m stubbly and spotty – and a bit croaky.

Here’s the clip:

Tory MP said ‘Judge us by our record’ so now I’ve made a VIDEO about it

Laura Trott: she wanted us to judge her party on its record. The video clip mentions just a few parts of it.

This is purely because the record of the Tory government’s failures is worth keeping in the public eye.

After yesterday’s article (read it here), I made a YouTube video, in order to keep the information about what the Tories have done as accessible as possible.

Here’s the clip:

This video shows everything that’s wrong with Tory money policies

The clip in the tweet below was made for an election – but it doesn’t matter which, because it is just as relevant now.

It’s an attack on “trickle-down” politics that demonstrates the difference between putting money into the economy where it is needed, and draining it out by giving it to the already-rich who will do nothing with it.

The “trickle-down” argument has long since been demolished but the Tories haven’t changed their policy; they just changed the argument so it now relies on dubious morality.

But if you spread this video around a bit, fewer people will be fooled.

Three million views for viral video of Liverpool woman confronting Keir Starmer. He then expelled her from Labour

His response: this image of Audrey White and the Labour letter expelling her, by Labour Heartlands, sums up Keir Starmer’s Stalinist response to any criticism he receives.

A video clip of a woman confronting Keir Starmer with accusations that he lied about uniting the Labour Party and instead witch-hunted members “in the most vicious way” has been viewed more than three million times.

This Writer can’t say that all the views were by people who approved of what Audrey White had to say – but at least they have all heard the heartfelt criticisms of a leader who has betrayed the Labour Party’s reason for being, which is to look after the best interests of people in the UK who have to work for a living.

Let’s push those viewing figures a little higher, shall we?

Speaking to him in July 2022, when Starmer had the cheek to visit Liverpool after writing an article in The Sun, which had insulted the people of that city by accusing them of causing the Hillsborough disaster, she said he had bought into Tory ideology of opposing strikes and privatising more of the NHS,

It was clearly too much for Starmer to handle as one of his flunkies tried to manhandle Ms White away (and then lied about touching her), and the so-called Labour leader made no response at all.

It’s possible that the clip made its impact because Ms White’s credentials as a political campaigner are far more impressive than Starmer’s; he has only been an elected politician since 2015, remember.

As for Ms White – here‘s Liverpool World:

White led a long campaign against sexual harassment to change employment law after she was sacked in the 1980s for complaining about the harassment of women at the Lord John clothes shop in Liverpool, where she was a manager.

A film, Business as Usual, was released in 1988, where White was played by Oscar-winner Glenda Jackson, who was a Labour MP for 23 years.

White acknowledged to Liverpool World that she had been suspended by Labour ‘at least twice and possibly three times for speaking out’ but maintained she had never been expelled by the Party.

Starmer’s apparatchiks retaliated four days after the confrontation by telling her she had been expelled in February that year… but they hadn’t bothered to notify her.

Ms White said her suspensions were

“for being interviewed by the [proscribed organisation] Socialist Appeal, the other was for tweets, which was because I was saying I had won a libel case against the Jewish Chronicle.”

In 2020, the Jewish Chronicle agreed to pay damages and issued a public apology to Ms White about articles published about her in 2019 which included details of alleged bullying and a plot to oust former Liverpool Riverside Labour MP Dame Louise Ellman.

The Socialist Appeal interview was given as the reason for expulsion.

But it seems clear that this heroine of the Labour movement was targeted by the party’s current figurehead for the heinous crime… of embarrassing him.

This is not leadership.

It is weakness.

Rather than even attempt to address the concerns of a party member with a far more impressive record of representing the people of the UK than his own, Starmer shunted her out of the organisation that he seems to think he owns.

We can only conclude that everything she said was right and he had no answers for her.

And I think that is why the video clip has had three million views – it shows him up for what he really is: a cuckoo in the Labour nest; a front-man for the Conservative Establishment.

Partygate video is just more evidence that Boris Johnson’s honours list should be binned

Shaun Bailey: at the time of his (failed) London Mayoral campaign he was labelled the Conservative candidate for Islamophobia, sexism and misogyny. Why should he be permitted to join the House of Lords after that, and after we found out a lockdown-busting party was held for him while we were all following his government’s rules?

I’m only writing about this to get it out of the way.

The appropriate time for this video to have become public knowledge was December 15, 2020 – the day after it was shot.

Now it is just a distraction from current misuses of power by the Conservatives in government – and their Opposition counterparts. You’ll have to read other articles on This Site for details of those, though.

Here’s the video to which I refer, which has been obtained and released by the Mirror:

Then-London Mayoral candidate Shaun Bailey, for whom the party was thrown, has been ennobled in Boris Johnson’s resignation honours list and will now sit in the House of Lords, having failed to be elected into any position of power democratically. This is cronyism – he simply has not done anything to deserve it.

And Ben Mallet, Bailey’s campaign manager who appears in the clip wearing white braces with red patterning, was given an OBE as a reward for his failure. He’s now running a campaign for Moz Hossain, who wants to be the Conservative candidate in next year’s London Mayoral election.

Earlier on December 14, 2020, then-Health Secretary Matt Hancock had given a speech at a Covid-19-related press conference, saying social distancing was the way to stop the disease from spreading:

You can read the speech and see a full video of it here, on the government’s website.

Levelling-Up Secretary Michael Gove, reacting to the video clip on Sky‘s Sophie Ridge show, has apologised for it (although This Writer isn’t clear whether he’s sorry that the event happened or that the clip has become public knowledge), saying “the fact that this party went ahead is indefensible”.

He said, “I want to apologise to everyone who, looking at that, will think these people are flouting the rules designed to protect us all.” Notice the phrasing; he apologised to those of us who “will think” these people were flouting the rules. So he made no admission that any such flouting actually happened, even though it is right there in vivid colour.

But he doesn’t seem to think the Metropolitan Police should reopen investigations into such events.

And he certainly won’t support calls for Bailey and Mallet to be stripped of their honours, despite the facts: not only did they do nothing to earn such awards but they disgraced themselves by rubbing our faces in the fact that they could ignore the rules by which were were being forced to live – and get away with it.

“The decision to confer honours on people was one that was made by Boris Johnson as an outgoing prime minister. Outgoing prime ministers have that right,” said Gove.

Do they? Do they have the right to confer honours on lawbreakers? To put one of them into Parliament where he will be able to corrupt the law-making process? This party was a criminal act at the time, remember.

And these are just two of the questionable names on Boris Johnson’s honours list. It seems clear that the whole thing should be withdrawn and investigations launched into whether it is appropriate for any of the people he named to receive anything at all.

Saying outgoing prime ministers have the right to honour anybody they want is not an acceptable justification.

Now that I have made that clear, please return to Vox Political later in the day, when I’ll be publishing articles about events happening now, that this story may be an attempt to obscure.

Will Clive Lewis be arrested for this?

Clive Lewis: his points about the monarchy are well-argued – but why isn’t he being arrested for them?

So: lots of people have been arrested for wanting to protest against the coronation today (May 6, 2023).

If you think there’s no need for them to have bothered, take a look at this, from Clive Lewis:

So the King has exempted himself from 160 laws, in order to amass billions of pounds of wealth – while three million kids are in poverty and struggling to find enough food to eat.

The argument that the monarchy is (at least partly) here to make huge disparities of wealth and power seem normal is, in This Writer’s opinion, persuasive.

That’s especially telling when you realise the UK Establishment is so frightened of opposition to the huge privilege it represents, that it will have people who want to demonstrate against it arrested without them even having committed a crime – as we have seen today.

So here’s the big question: why hasn’t Mr Lewis been arrested for making his video clip? It will have reached – and swayed – far more people than would have witnessed a street protest that news cameras could avoid.

I’m not arguing that he should be arrested – he’s one of the few remaining MPs that gives the Labour Party brand any validity at all.

But the fact that it hasn’t happened shows how ridiculous the arrests that actually took place really were.
