#RachelCorrie died 23 years ago today, on 16 March 2003. She was crushed by an #Israeli army bulldozer, when trying to prevent the demolition of a house in #Rafah, #Gaza, owned by a #Palestinian doctor and his family. Rachel was 23-years-old. See http://rachelcorriefoundation.org#JimPage's song "I'd rather be dancing" is based on letters Rachel wrote home to her parents before Israelis murdered her: https://youtu.be/QxazIsQE1XERachel placed her body between civilians and killers. That's what a war hero is.

You don’t get to be racist and Irish.You don’t get to be proud of your heritage,Plights and fights for freedom,While kneeling on the neck of another.You’re not entitled to sing songsOf heroes and martyrs,Mothers and fathers who criedAs they starved in a famine.Or of brave-hearted,Soft-spokenPoets and artists,Lined up in a yard,Blindfolded and bound,Waiting for Godot,And point-blank to sound.>>

We emigrated.We immigrated.We took refuge,So cannot refuseWhen it’s our timeTo return the favour.Land stolen,Spirits broken,Bodies crushed and swollen,Unholy tokens of Christ,Nailed to a tree,That you hang around your neckLike a noose of the free.Our colour pasty,Our accents thick,Hands like shovelsFrom mortar and brick,Laying foundations of citiesYou now stand upon.>>

Our suffering seeps from every stoneYour opportunities arise from,Outstanding on the shouldersOf our forefathers and foremothersWho bore your mother’s mother.Our music is for the righteous.Our joys have been earned,Well deserved and serveTo remind us to remember:More Blacks.More Dogs.More Irish.Still labelled leprechauns, Micks, Paddies, loutsWe’re shouting to tell you:>>

Our land, our lawsAre progressively out there.We’re in a chrysalis,State of emergingInto a new and more beautiful Éire.40 Shades Better.Unanimous in our rainbow vote,We’ve found our stereotypical pot of gold,And my God, it’s good.So join us…’Cause you don’t get to be racist and Irish.A poem by #ImeldaMay ❤️

Actually, @lauren, Trump is a long way back from the front of the queue to hell.#Trump didnt create the nukes, the bombers, the missiles, or the rest of the horrors that the #USA's imperialist military threatens #Iran with. Americans repeatedly vote for creating such horrors and for serving the imperial army.#Trump is just the current evil driver. But without the killing machine America made for 250 years, Trump would just be a sweary oaf.Other Americans: go get a mirror. You made this.

I am staggered by the sheer hugeness of this.The #WelshGovernment has a policy of bilingualism. All meetings include translators, so that speakers of English or Welsh can participate equally. But every member of the Welsh Cabinet is a native speaker of #Cymraeg, so the Cabinet meetings will be held in their native lsnguage.#PlaidCymru #Wales Imposing the #EnglishLanguage was a key component of the imperial project of Britishness. But the tide has turned. 💚 🏴

The Lord Moylan is not happy about this. The Tory bankster from Kensington is shocked that a bunch of Welsh speakers in Wales, comprising the #WelshGovernment, speak in their shared native language! 🏴Couldn't they at least speak English, out of deference to some posh twat in London who likes to control the celts? 😅🤣#Cymraeg #WelshLanguage

80 years ago, a bomb blew up the HQ of the British Mandate in #Palestine, at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. 91 people were killed.It was planted by the Irgun, a right-wing #Zionist group. UK Prime Minister Clement Attlee called it an "insane act of terrorism" .Winston Churchill was similarly outraged.In 2006, on the 60th anniversary, 64 MPs signed an #EDM denouncing the attack. The proposer & 17 others were Tories.#KemIBadenoch wouldn't allow that.https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/31213/sixtieth-anniversary-of-bombing-of-king-david-hotel#ukpol
