Last Tuesday, the European Commission proposed to partially suspend Israel from its €80bn Horizon science research programme, citing the “severe” humanitarian crisis in Gaza. But this proposal comes late, after years of funding military-linked research with minimal transparency or accountability. As the death toll mounts and Gazans face man-made famine, the EU’s role in bankrolling violence is under scrutiny.

    there’s some kind of rule where if there headline is a yes/no question, the answer is always “no”.

      Yes, but lately I’ve found that to be insufficient. The full form is: If a headline is a question, the answer is always the one where people who need to act morally don’t. Will the EU stop financing Israel’s genocide? No. Will climate change kill us all? Yes. Will the Supreme Court stop Trump from doing a bad thing? No. Is free speech in Britain dead? Yes.
