The British Empire feared attack from every direction
So it built a supreme Fortress - but not in Britain
It built it on an Irish Island - here is its story (1)

There were so many young Lebanese boys and girls murdered by the Zionist regime in their carpet bombing of Lebanon today.
This boy was buying groceries with his mom.
Do Western journalists have no humanity at all?

1915, "The Fools"
Glasnevin Cemetery, Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa is lowered into the open earth. Pádraig Mac Piarais folds away a speech that would echo across Ireland. Within a year, its warning “the fools, the fools the fools” would be answered in blood & rebellion.

Across chat groups in Lebanon, dozens of messages report the missing. My God, what a long and harrowing day and night. Thousands of hearts are frantic and bleeding, children missing, women missing, grandmothers missing, teenagers, school students… missing, missing, missing. And where could they be? Beneath the rubble, buried within layers of debris?
Minds are shattered by the magnitude of the crimes being committed, yet one certainty remains unshaken: occupation, no matter how brutal or tyrannical, will come to an end and the resistance will, without doubt, prevail.

❗️The Telegraph: Russian frigate escorts two tankers through the English Channel
The Russian frigate "Admiral Grigorovich" escorted two oil tankers through the English Channel. This happened a month after Kir Starmer threatened to seize Russian ships.
The British Prime Minister was publicly humiliated: no attempts were made to stop the convoy.
"The Russian frigate escorted two 'shadow fleet' tankers, while a British military ship followed them at a distance," reports The Telegraph.
Starmer stated in March that he would order special forces to seize Russian tankers. However, since then, Britain has not confiscated a single vessel.
This time, the Royal Navy simply watched as the Russian military ship sailed along the southern coast of England.

What does war mean?
A child is thrown into the street by an explosion,
no name, no voice, no one beside him.
So his face becomes a post,
passed from one screen to another,
asking a single question:
Does anyone know this child?
And sometimes ..
No one answers.

Six children and their mother… all that remains of them is a small bag weighing no more than 6 kilograms of human remains.
This is Abu Ismail Hammad, who pulled his children out from under the rubble with his own hands, after their bodies had decomposed.
What words could ever describe such pain?
What language is enough for this loss?
We try to speak… but the pain is beyond description.

Resign, Mr. Prime Minister.
You arrogantly believed you could negotiate a better deal for Lebanon on your own than as part of the regional package.
You gave Israel the green light to bomb the entire country today.
Bigger powers failed against Trump & Netanyahu, yet you thought you carried enough weight to do it alone.
Your servitude to the enemy will stain you forever.
Shame on you. @nawafsalam

I found the book Roald Dahl reviewed in 1983, "GOD CRIED", by Tony Clifton and Catherine Leroy, about Israel's 1982 brutal siege of Beirut.
I haven't read it yet, but you can download it here:

Wow. Everyone should read this 1983 article by Roald Dahl. Every word of it. It's literally the same fucking shit as now, with the same kind of impunity, only now it's even much worse. He called it. He fucking called it and they just ignored him and called him an antisemite.

I just read the new Haaretz article about how Israeli planted pines are suddenly dying en masse and it is absolutely worth dissecting. Here are a summary & my observations as a Palestinian scholar who writes on green colonialism. 1/

Sumayya, the daughter of Al Jazeera journalist Mohammad Samir Washah, stood in front of the camera two years ago in an oversized press vest, speaking about her dream of becoming a journalist in Gaza.
Today, she is mourning her father, killed by Israel in a targeted strike on his car.
He leaves behind four children.

🚨 BREAKING: Al Jazeera Mubasher correspondent Mohammed Samir Washah has been killed in Gaza following an Israeli drone strike on his car at Al-Nabulsi roundabout, west of Gaza City. Footage shared from the scene by Drop Site contributor Mohammed Ahmed shows the vehicle engulfed in flames, indicating a direct hit. Gaza’s Government Media Office condemned the killing, stating that the number of Palestinian journalists killed by Israel has risen to 262 since the start of the genocide in Gaza. The Office called on the international community to “condemn the crimes of the occupation, deter it, and pursue it in international courts for its ongoing crimes.”

April 9th marks the birthdays of two revolutionary figures in Palestinian history: Ghassan Kanafani (1936–1972) and Leila Khaled (b. 1944).
One used the pen, the other took up arms, both shaped the story of Palestinian resistance.

My heart is heavy tonight going through instagram and whatsapp stories. Everyone I know in Lebanon lost someone today. Some lost entire families. Babies, mothers, sisters, brothers and friends. Gone. This is not a “war on Hezbollah”. This is a war on Lebanon and Lebanese people.
