This is crazy, and so sad, in Lebanon. Israel is specifically targeting journalists.
Zionists Israel target a journalist who knew his fate was sealed when he heard the rocket. He died on his feet.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The journalists in this video (Al-Manar correspondent Ali Shabib/Chbib and cameraman) were injured by a nearby strike in southern Lebanon but survived and were released from hospital. aljazeera.com/video/newsfeed… cpj.org/2026/09/journa… timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…

Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write. This is the article: volkskrant.nl/kijkverder/v/2…

"Para que los judíos se fueran a Israel, los sionistas se disfrazaron de musulmanes y atacaron a mujeres judías, hicieron atentados terroristas contra judíos en sinagogas de Irak, Egipcio, Marruecos... para aterrorizarlos y que se fueran a buscar refugio a Israel". Yakov Rabkin, profesor emérito de Historia en la Universidad de Montreal, denuncia el papel del sionismo contra los judíos para crear el apartheid de "Israel", como incluso los sionistas hicieron atentados terroristas contra los judíos (culpando a los musulmanes) para conseguir que se marcharan de sus paises. Durante el genocidio nazi, los sionistas igualmente llegaron a acuerdos con Hitler para fomentar la expulsión de judíos de Alemania, siempre y cuando esos judios fuesen expulsados hacia Palestina.

Richie Sadlier👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 "It's baffling to me, how...it is controversial or contentious or objectionable that someone suggests...do you know what maybe let's not play football against them. Maybe instead of playing a match against them, maybe let's not play a match."

Everyday.
This is what I woke up to today. The Israeli army has been relentlessly bombing the hills across from us for hours.

The journalist who recorded the video of decomposing babies at Al-Nasr Children's Hospital, Mohammed Baalousha, was shot by Israeli terrorists just two weeks later, and survived. On 14 December 2024, the IDF assassinated him in an airstrike that targeted his home.
In Nov 2023, the IDF besieged & bombarded Al-Nasr Children's Hospital in Gaza, expelling all staff & patients. Five babies could not be safely evacuated without ambulances or specialized equipment. As a result, they died cold and alone in the ICU, next to their diapers & milk.

There is no universe where this is not an evil act - cold blooded murder of innocents
In a heartbreaking and tragic scene, my friend's father was trying to help one of the injured when Israel bombed the area, killing him and everyone else there. He died trying to save others.

🚨Trigger warning: This video contains distressing footage of restraint. The moment Yves Sakila, a 35-year-old Congolese man, was restrained in Dublin by several men for a number of minutes before becoming unresponsive and later dying. His family are now calling for justice.

Don’t like people wearing watermelon pins at your shitty medical conference? Don’t care. “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” makes you feel scared? Don’t care. Seeing Palestinian flags on university campuses upsets you? Don’t care. A student calling Israel an apartheid state hurts your little feelings? Don’t care. A doctor speaking publicly about Palestinian children being massacred feels “divisive” to you? Fuck you. People refusing to condemn Palestinian resistance makes you uneasy? Don’t care. Hearing the word “genocide” feels inflammatory to you? Don’t care. A keffiyeh in a workplace gives you a panic attack? Don’t care. “Globalise the intifada” sounds genocidal to you? Don’t care. People interrupting politicians feels disrespectful to you? Don’t care. You no longer being able to monopolise victimhood makes you angry? Truly could not care less. What I care about are the Palestinian children being burned alive. The doctors being tortured. The families erased under rubble. The starvation. The concentration camps. The destruction of Gaza’s hospitals and universities and refugee camps and entire civilian infrastructure. But for the nearly last 1,000 days and decades prior, Western institutions have demanded everyone stop and carefully tend to Jewish emotional discomfort instead. Not Palestinian lives. Not Palestinian suffering. Not Palestinian speech. Zionist discomfort. Zionist fragility. Zionist political sensitivity—elevated, enforced, and institutionalised across universities, hospitals, media outlets, professional associations, politicians, donors, and advocacy groups. All working in sync to transform Zionist discomfort into institutional emergency. While Palestinian suffering is rendered invisible. While Palestinian speech is disciplined. While Palestinian humanity is treated as negotiable. That is the function of the Jewish Feelings Industrial Complex. Not safety. Not care. Not protection. Institutionalised Zionist emotional management at scale. Fuck every single institution that constantly weaponizes “Jewish safety,” “Jewish discomfort,” and “Jewish feelings” to justify censorship, repression, career destruction, anti-Palestinian racism, and silence in the face of mass atrocity. If a watermelon pin destabilises you more than the annihilation of Gaza, the problem is not the watermelon pin. The problem is you. -- from "The Anti-Zionist" patreon.com/posts/awww-your-…

do you understand what just happened to your computer.. Google Chrome secretly downloaded a 4GB AI model onto your device. Without asking.. Without telling you.. It's called weights.bin. It lives deep in your system folders. It powers Gemini Nano - Google's on-device AI. And if you delete it? Chrome re-downloads it automatically. Like nothing happened. Just Google deciding your hard drive is their storage unit. At 1 billion Chrome users - that's 4 BILLION gigabytes of data pushed silently across the internet. The carbon footprint alone equals tens of thousands of cars running for a year. Check your disk right now: 📁 %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\OptGuideOnDeviceModel To stop it: chrome://flags → disable Optimization Guide On Device Model → restart Chrome → delete the folder. Reshare so people know what's sitting on their computers.
Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent. The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel. It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted. While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification. The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event. To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.
