This is why the United States, the United Kingdom and other Western countries are rejecting and abandoning international law.
To take Armenia & Palestine together; 3 decades before arrival of Exodus 1947, Armenians came, fleeing massacre Turks insist today was 'part of wider WW1'. With time those housed by Palestinians found homes of their own. After WW2, Jewish refugees stole homes they took refuge in.

The Parting Glass
And of all the money that air I spent
I spent it in good company.
And of all the harm that air I've done
alas it was to none but me.
And for all I've done for want of wit
to memory now I can't recall.
So fill to me the parting glass.
Good night and joy be with you all.
And to all the comrades that air I had
who would be sorry for my going away.
And to all the sweethearts that air I've loved
who would bid me one more day to stay.
And as it falls upon my lot
that I should rise and you should not.
So fill to me the parting glass.
Good night and joy be with you all.
And if I had money enough to spare
and leisure time to sit a while.
There is a girl in this fair land
who surely has my heart beguiled.
With her long dark hair and ruby lips,
she surely has my heart enthralled.
So raise to me the parting glass.
Good night and joy be with you all.
So raise to me the parting glass.
Good night and joy be with you all.

U.S. Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. A federal judge ordered the U.S. Department of Justice to produce the unredacted documents. The DOJ has refused to hand over Epstein files after a judge's order. The deadline was July 2, 2026.
As someone works in human rights, I’ve never seen anything like the Epstein files in my 15-year career. There are 3 million files of documented evidence about powerful men who
Raped
Cannibalized
Trafficked
Filmed
Terrorized
Tortured
Murdered
13, 14, 15 year children!
Remember: this is a minority of the files. This's just what they were willing to release.
Not a single arrest or investigation. ZERO.
We called on the U.S. Department of Justice to hand over the full Epstein files to the UN Special Rapporteurs and UN independent committees for investigations, as this is an international case of crimes against humanity. But the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the UN's top human rights official didn't even care to open an investigation or listen to our call for the DoJ, nor utter a single word regarding the largest human trafficking network in modern history.
Epstein pedophiles are investigating Epstein files. We wonder why nobody arrested. Jeffery Epstein has every major politicians and billionaires on video doing something terrible to a child or to multiple people.
THOUSANDS have been arrested for criticizing Zionism. THOUSANDS have been arrested for social media posts. ZERO have been arrested for raping children.
The Epstein files is never really about just a "list." It is about children raped by powerful men, and a system that let them get away with it.
The bottom line here is the world system has become so corrupt that the time has come I think to clean the crap out of the stables and start over.
The Epstein files is about protecting children. There's no greater cause. If people can't unite over children being raped and abused there's no hope for humanity.
I don't understand how we're not having a global revolution right now.
O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae mony a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion:
What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us,
An' ev'n devotion!

Britain’s past is extraordinary, no question. We’ve earned our place in the history books many times over, from Newton to Fleming to Turing, and half the modern world runs on ideas that first sparked on this little island. But the mistake some people make is thinking our best chapters are behind us. They aren’t. They’re being written quietly every day.
Walk through any of our universities or research centres and you’ll see breakthroughs in medicine, quantum computing, energy storage, genetics, materials science and AI happening at a pace our Victorian inventors could barely imagine. British engineers are designing fusion reactors, our scientists are mapping disease in ways that will save millions of lives, and our creatives are shaping global culture from film to fashion to gaming. That’s not decline, that’s evolution.
The UK hasn’t stopped producing brilliance, it’s just moved from the front page to the lab bench. The trouble is, doom-mongers get more clicks than nuance. It is always easier to shout that Britain has “fallen” than to look at the real data and admit the foundations are still strong, still innovative and still respected across the world.
If people want to downplay us, that’s their choice. I’d rather celebrate the countless researchers, apprentices, nurses, engineers, coders and entrepreneurs who are improving lives quietly, without fanfare. The modern Great Britons aren’t all carved in statue form yet, but they’re here, working bloody hard and pushing boundaries just like their predecessors.
The story of Britain didn’t end with the names taught in school textbooks. It’s still being written, and the next chapter could be one of our finest if we stop talking ourselves down and start backing the talent we already have.
Since Heysel in 1985 British politicians have attempted to distance themselves from hooligans, even those at their own club. Why defend those from another country? Because they're Jewish? Do you see Brian Epstein & Jeffrey Epstein as the same?

The way raw video evidence debunked the "Amsterdam pogrom" narrative in real time in full view of the entire world is exactly why Israel hates journalists. It's why it won't let the western press visit Gaza, and it's why it murders Palestinian journalists at every opportunity.
