As it resorts to ever more fascistic and heavy-handed policing against journalists, political figures and health workers in particular, we are seeing not its strength but signs of the regime’s weakness and the system’s decay. Why is the General Medical Council being weaponised? Why is the government doubling down and continuing to insist on its promotion of a concept of ‘antisemitism’ that has been thoroughly exposed in the eyes of all thinking people? Why does it continue to insist that support for Palestinian resistance = terrorism? We talked about the case of Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, cleared by one tribunal of any activity that should prevent her from practising medicine, and then immediately called to a new hearing despite no new ‘offence’ having been committed – essentially in response to the health minister Wes Streeting kicking up a stink about the verdict. What is the role of the official Palestine solidarity and trade union movement leadership in all this? Why is Dr Aladwan being vilified in the media and used as a test case by the ruling class? Why is Wes Streeting so desperate to make sure that the (zionist) IHRA’s ‘definition of antisemitism’ is rolled out across the entire NHS? What it it about medics speaking up for Palestine that has the ruling class so jumpy? And, as the detaining of our comrade and RT journalist Steve Sweeney shows us: how long before this entire machinery of islamophobic and genocide-enabling repression is aimed at the beating heart of the anti-imperialist movement – the communists?
