Yesterday Israel kidnapped dozens of Syrian boys and men.
Their families have no idea where they are.
Why do they get to do this all over the region?
Israeli forces have detained dozens of Syrians from the country’s south, some of them teenage boys taken from farms and family homes. Their families still don’t know where they are being held or why, reports @subhash_anagha for @newlinesmag. newlinesmag.com/reportage/th…

We really moved on too quickly from Donald Trump Jr. marrying Jeffrey Epstein’s personal bankers’ daughter, and a Russian oligarch paid for the whole thing in a blatant bribery scheme.

A voter was interviewed on Israeli news, along with two first-time voters, about what led them to choose who to vote for. One of them said that his main issue was that "I don't want there to be Arabs here in the country." The reporter nodded enthusiastically. Say hello to the next generation of Israeli voter.

A message to those who still believe that it all started on October 7. No, it didn't. A 'managed genocide', to keep 1.5 million Palestinians "on the edge of life" was in force years before. Read the latest report by Eyal Weizman:
"A military document called ‘Red Lines’ set the minimum number of calories required to sustain Gaza’s population at a level just above the UN definition of hunger (2100 calories a day for men, 1700 for women and a varying amount for children depending on gender and age). The total number of calories was translated into the tonnage required to feed Gaza’s then population of 1.5 million and thus the number of aid trucks allowed into the territory. The same went for megawatts of electricity and litres of fuel and water. What was seen as good behaviour was rewarded by an increase in the amounts coming in, any acts of resistance by the tightening of the siege, like a population-scale version of a Milgram experiment."

Kushner financed Erik Prince’s international terrorism with MBZ’s money. It’s everything we thought but even worse.

Merits a thorough investigation to say the least.

During the January 6th attack on the nation's Capitol, Daniel Rodriguez drove a stun gun into the neck of Officer Mike Fanone. He was knocked unconscious, had a heart attack and suffered a traumatic brain injury. It ended his career.
Rodriguez got over 12 years in prison for his assault on police. On day one, Donald Trump gave him a "full, complete and unconditional pardon" and sent him home.
This is far and away the most corrupt White House in American history.

Don't fall for the theater they are putting on with the elections in Israel. They will try to pin all the blame on Netanyahu, but the truth is that the entire nation is involved in this genocide.

BREAKING: Journalists investigating corruption in Ukraine will face 5 years in prison.
Zelensky wants me and my journalist colleagues to stay silent about how he’s stealing your billions.
He’s taking the last thing left - freedom of speech.
We bring you the truth.

This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

One month ago, I pointed out I would record Secretary Scott Bessent’s claim that the Iranian regime would collapse within two weeks.
It was a farce then, and I think it’s important that we pull up their statements from the past to expose why we should give them no credibility now.
This mockery of a declaration last month is in the same category of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth telling us numerous times in the beginning of the Iran war that we had already won. Or President Trump routinely telling us that Iran is “begging for a deal.”
None of it has been true, and virtually every word they tell us is either hideously bad analysis or intentional deception. I’m not sure which is worse, but I know it’s all bad for the United States of America.
It is terrifying to realize that the ppl in charge of our government at the highest levels, have this low of leadership capacity — and quality and lack of morals — and are the ones that will decide whether we’re about to plunge into an even worse phase of this war.
I will record and remember this. Two weeks… Iran survived eight years of war w Iraq, all the years of Trump’s “maximum pressure” and now eight months of war — but yeah, they’re going to collapse in two weeks.
Shows how disconnected from reality the U.S. Administration is.
This is the same guy who’s not worried about $40 trillion in debt and claims we can “grow our way out of it” no problem.

Kushner gave up Khashoggi’s location and MBS listened to his cries as he was dismembered while still alive. Jared received $2 billion from MBS

In this picture, you see a Palestinian woman named Hadeel Al-Dahdouh. Her home was raided while she was safe with her husband and her child, who was only two years old.
They removed her hijab, placed her among men wearing only their underwear, and subjected them to severe beatings. They then dug a large pit and began burying the men alive.
When the sand reached her husband's face and he began to suffocate, she tried to remove the sand from his face to save him. They beat her so brutally that even men would struggle to endure such violence.
After that, they fired shots into the air, told her that her husband had been killed, and then released her. Today, she lives in Gaza, suffering from severe psychological trauma as a result of what she endured.
As for her husband, he was released after three months, having endured a journey of torment inside the prisons. Throughout that entire period, Hadeel lived with the agonizing belief that her husband had been killed, unaware that he was still alive.
Israel has committed filthy and savage crimes against Palestinians unlike anything the world has ever witnessed in the entire history of humanity.

This is so pathetic. President Trump deceiving his own followers, playing to their base instincts of wanting to hammer our opponents, fooling them into believing we have beat Iran. But the reality is clear that we have suffered far greater than we should ever have suffered, and for whatever genuine damage we have done to Iran, it is far less than the economic and military damage we have suffered ourselves.
It’s of course also a flat out lie that Iran was two weeks from having a nuclear weapon. Trump very well knows they didn’t have a weapons program — which his intelligence director told him. Also, multiple administration officials have since outright confirmed that Iran was not developing a nuclear weapon, and therefore Trump did not prevent them from getting one.
The entire war was based on a lie, and if he returns to fighting again — in a new violation of the Constitution in the 1973 War Powers Act — he will again be putting American lives at risk to cover his lie.
In my view, that is a profound impeachable offense, and he should be removed from office according to the US Constitution and any morality that may still be left in the US Congress.
🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump says Iran was 2 weeks away from a NUCLEAR missile when he launched the war
"I don't feel we had a choice.
They were 2 weeks away from having a nuclear missile."
He then pivoted to Operation Midnight Hammer, the June 2025 B-2 strikes on Fordow and Natanz that he says "obliterated" Iran's program, eight months before this war began.
That leaves a hard question hanging... If the program was obliterated in June, how was Iran two weeks from a nuclear missile by February?
