Moazzam Begg: the British activist protesting genocide

Held and tortured in Guantanamo for three years, Begg was released in 2005 without any charge. He sued the UK for complicity, and years after his release, he continues to advocate for the oppressed.

Once shrugged off, Al Aqsa violations now irk more Israelis

There is a growing awareness in Israeli society, deeply divided by the war in Gaza, that such provocations by far-right Jewish zealots do nothing but fan the flames of violence
