🚨 Israeli attacks have killed 1953 people and wounded 6,303 more across Lebanon since March 2, the Lebanese Ministry of Health announced today.

Al-Mawasi, Rafah | Newly obtained footage show Israeli troops bombing tents sheltering displaced people on the beach in al-Mawasi in recent weeks. Media reports suggest the incident may have occurred on 25 March 2025 and resulted in four injuries, three of them were children.

@traumasponge @davidsirota Ah yes I see it there now.

@GraingerMarcos @davidsirota The diopter line is hidden in the column, but you can kind of see it in the space lower in the frame.

I imagine many in media today can’t even comprehend this scene — the idea of picking up a phone and accumulating new info is simply unfathomable & probably seems weird in an industry that now sees media work as screaming a hot take into a webcam.

40 days ago today, 168 schoolchildren in Minab were killed in a double-tap American strike. Their lives were taken, but they will not be forgotten. May their memories be cherished with their families, and may those responsible live a life of misery for the massacre they conducted.

@davidsirota Not from the Sting @X

Shameful.

@cosmepolitics Got a 4/10 on IGN

oof.

Meanwhile, Israeli war crimes in Lebanon continue. A reminder that Lebanon really must be part of any ceasefire and end to this illegal regional conflict.

Israel will do everything it can to plunge the entire world into war. No country should be arming them

💢🇱🇧 BREAKING | Israel launched 100 strikes across Lebanon in 10 minutes Wednesday afternoon, targeting Beirut, the south, and the Bekaa Valley — hours after a ceasefire was announced and declared “effective immediately” by Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Sounds of ambulances filled the streets of Beirut from 3 PM local time. The Lebanese Red Cross head Georges Kettaneh told LBCI: “The wounded and casualties are numerous. We are doing everything we can to save them.” Several Beirut hospitals issued urgent blood donation appeals. Neighborhoods struck in Beirut without prior warning included Salim Slem, Borj Abi Haidar, Corniche al-Mazraa, Bashoura, and the southern suburbs. Kaifoun and Bshamoun, east of Beirut, were also hit, according to L’Orient Today. Across southern Lebanon, the cities of Tyre, Sidon, and Nabatieh were struck alongside villages including Adloun, Bazourieh, al-Abbassieh, Zefta, Sir al-Gharbieh, Ansar, and Ain Baal. In Sidon, a strike on the al-Zahraa complex wounded Al Manar correspondent Amin Shumer. In the eastern Bekaa Valley, strikes hit Baalbek and villages including Hermel, Shemstar, al-Karak, al-Ferzel, Boudai, and Sohmor. Several people were wounded in Hermel. Two people were killed when a truck was struck between Hasbaya and Maymas. The Amal Movement confirmed six people killed in an earlier strike on Srifa, a village in southern Lebanon near the coastal city of Tyre. In Mansouri — another southern village along the Mediterranean coast — 13 residents, including the village mukhtar, lost contact after returning home following the ceasefire announcement, as the town came under repeated shelling. Netanyahu has stated the ceasefire does not cover Lebanon, even as Hezbollah halted fire on northern Israel and invading ground troops, according to Reuters. Drop Site correspondent Lylla Younes reported warplanes back in the sky over Beirut at 8 AM local time, with ambulances running nonstop and people screaming in the streets.

Hasan Piker's full speech for senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed at Michigan State University "Foreign policy is directly related to domestic policy. Because every single dollar that is spent on a bomb that blows up a school overseas is a dollar that is stolen from you."

Tucker, sadly, will win over many disenchanted voters with this. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders and donors have spent two weeks blasting Hasan Piker and Abdul El-Sayed, and before that, they did everything to destroy Mamdani. Oh, they also support Israel's genocide. Awesome.

Millions of football fans attending the 2026 FIFA Men’s #WorldCup in Canada, Mexico and the USA risk coming face to face with troubling attacks on human rights, not least those stemming from abusive and deadly US immigration policies.

“The kids don’t know shit, Bill? Or is that you? Time for a debunking.” @mehdirhasan corrects Bill Maher’s lies about Israel’s long history of aggressive wars, with evidence of their imperialist intentions over decades.

🚨 Israeli warships have bombed several civilian vehicles in the Jnah area south of Beirut, according to local reports. Blasts hit near Al-Zahraa Hospital in the densely populated area.

We are excited to announce our first federal endorsement for 2026! @OliverALarkin is taking on one of the most war-mongering democrats in Congress, and DSA is proud to endorse him.

Professor John Mearsheimer : "if there were Nuremberg trials right where the Israelis and the Americans were brought before the court, President Trump along with President Netanyahu and many of their advisors would be hanged"

I think it's important to understand the *KIND* of pressure that worked here. This is the result of organizing on our part of our NYC-DSA FSIO, who sought engagement with her instead of only "accountability". Important to do both!
