Three children among 9 killed after Israel conducts airstrikes in retaliation for Hamas rocket attacks, Gaza officials say https://t.co/04F3SENko1

The violence in Jerusalem – especially against children – is unbearable. This long conflict has cost many children their lives and their futures. Leaders must act immediately – there is no peace when children and civilians are not safe. #AlAqsa https://t.co/bLv3XyA1OV

A few quick thoughts on the ongoing escalation right now. First, Hamas surprised everyone. In hindsight the way they piggybacked on events in Jerusalem to grasp the leadership, now that elections are postponed makes sense. But no-one in Israel truly expected them to do it now.>

Israel warns Biden: Stay out of our business…but keep sending $3.8 Bil in military aid, & defend Israel’s apartheid statutes…even as Jewish extremists aim to blow up holy sites, provoke a religious war, as 🇮🇱 lobbies Congress against a deal with Iran. https://t.co/nnRwOm2ZHy

As this makes clear, evictions of families in East Jerusalem would violate international law. If the Biden Administration puts the rule of law and human rights at the heart of its foreign policy, this is not a moment for tepid statements.

This is wrong.

The forced displacement of Palestinian communities in East Jerusalem is illegal and unacceptable.

The Biden administration must stand up for the rights of the Palestinian families in #SheikhJarrah and urge the Israeli government to stop these evictions. https://t.co/0GX0QWG8tf

Here's the letter @GOPLeader has sent to members telling them to anticipate a vote to remove @Liz_Cheney from leadership on Wednesday.

So @GOPLeader hired Brian Jack – who helped recruit speakers for the 1/6 Stop The Steal rally – to be a top political aide.

No wonder he is fighting a 1/6 commission and trying to purge Cheney. His team was in on it. @SykesCharlie connects the dots.https://t.co/P4cPltMXUL

If, as Boris Johnson suggested at the presser, the new voter ID rules only apply to first-time voters, it’s going to be increasingly hard to argue it isn’t voter suppression aimed at Labour voters. pic.twitter.com/BXLY78GHVM

Great question from @AdamBienkov to Boris Johnson about new voter ID law. Given there was only *one* instance of voter fraud in 2019 what problem does mandatory photo ID at the polling station actually solve?

— Matthew Garrahan (@MattGarrahan) May 10, 2021

It is an abuse of power to change the rules in this way for your own political advantage. It is possible to check if anyone voting has had their vote wrongly claimed. But Boris Johnson’s Government does not want people to know how rare this is @LibDemPeers https://t.co/lTf6Iz5xmQ
