On a Friday afternoon in mid-February 2024, Ben Jamal got an unexpected call from the police. Could he push tomorrow’s march back by two hours? His stomach sank. The director of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign was not unused to having police place conditions on the protests that had taken place in the capital almost fortnightly since 7 October 2023 – in fact, they had done so every time – but this, he told Novara Media, was “an impossible sort of injunction”.

It’s important to say that Trump may not get everyone on his wish list.

Complexity is often the first port of call for liberals seeking to derail conversations on what should be straightforward questions of principle. Nowhere is this truer than of Israel and Palestine, a century-long conflict to which a seemingly infinite number of critical lenses can be applied. One might narrate Israeli apartheid in terms of the history of western imperialism or Jewish persecution, as a linchpin of the military-industrial complex or of climate breakdown.
