The Daily Blog Open Mic – 10th October 2025
Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.
The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog, 3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.
All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird Bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.
Israeli spokesperson after spokesperson come on our TV screens to claim that the reason Israel prevents foreign investigative journalists and war crimes investigators, entering Gaza is because it is an active war zone, and it is for their own safety that Israel prevents them from entering Gaza.
Now that the ceasefire has taken hold, this excuse is no longer a valid.
Western civil society must raise two demands
The first demand, food, medicine, fuel;
Egypt must open the Rafah crossing to allow the 3 kilometre long line of stalled aid trucks to enter Gaza.
The second demand, Justice;
Egypt must open the Rafah crossing to facilitate the passage foreign investigative reporters and war crimes investigators into Gaza, to begin recording and uncovering the mass graves, interview witnesses, to provide the world with the vitally needed accurate and objective account of the scale of the genocide.

How liberals end up supporting genocide
The Electronic Intifada have published credible statistics showing that the tens of thousands of Palestinians are still remaining in Gaza City, this despite being threatened by the IDF that anyone who remained would be considered a combatant, and presumably shot on sight.
But according to the scumbags at The Standard this is not genocide because they were warned to get out.
I dared to point out to them that the Jewish people of Europe were also warned to get out.

You are watching and listening to the electronic itifada. I am John Elmer. This is the resistance report for day 734 of Israel’s genocide. I am reporting this on the 9th of October.
Talk of a ceasefire will apparently be implemented sometime within the next 24 hours. We will continue to follow those events very closely…..
Beginning @0:35 minutes:
…..This is the map from the International Organization of Migration, and the United Nations migration cluster….
[Video shows map giving the UN figures for the number of people who have fled Gaza City and with arrows showing the routes they have taken]
….It’s a map showing the neighborhoods in Gaza City with arrows down to the middle camps and to the south and Al-Mawasi. You can see the numbers correlate to each neighborhood, and the number of people leaving. And overall the number uh is – 467,523 have been driven out of Gaza City,
Those numbers do not match with what the Israeli military has been putting out. The Israeli military wants to say that people have left Gaza City. For their military purposes, ethnic cleansing being their goal.
The [IDF] military’s assessments, according to Army Radio – 900,000 of the estimated 1 million Palestinians who are residing in Gaza City have moved south. But as we see this migration cluster, which includes all the organizations that are involved in the migration portfolio, and they have trackers at each position on the way down the road to the evacuation sites and their number is clearly barely over half of the number that the Israelis said……
