Australian chef Zomi Frankcom left everything behind to feed starving children in Gaza. The IDF killed her. Photos of her body and a bloodied passport were then shared on Telegram channels, celebrated by 125,000 followers. Remember her name.

🇨🇳🤝🇪🇸🚨BREAKING: China moves to crown Sánchez as Europe’s chief representative, bypassing Brussels entirely. Beijing confirms its 4th high-level visit in 4 years, handpicking Spain’s PM as the EU’s de facto voice. Trump’s “nemesis in Europe” (FT) and axis of resistance mogger-in-chief, who called for Netanyahu’s arrest, is reopening Spain’s embassy in Tehran, and is pivoting toward Algeria against Morocco, is done playing by the old rules.

This is what Israel does to Beirut and Lebanon during a ceasefire...

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 The inside story of how the war started is more damning than anyone imagined The New York Times just published the most detailed account yet of Trump's decision to attack Iran. Every American should read it. February 11th. Netanyahu arrives at the White House for a classified Situation Room briefing. Mossad on the screens behind him. He plays Trump a video montage of potential new Iranian leaders, including the exiled son of the Shah. He tells Trump regime change is within reach. The missile program can be destroyed in weeks. Iran won't be able to close Hormuz. Retaliation against U.S. interests would be "minimal." Trump's response: "Sounds good to me." Every single one of those assurances turned out to be wrong. Iran closed Hormuz. Retaliation hit six countries. The missile program survived underground. The regime consolidated power instead of collapsing. And 44 days later, Trump accepted a ceasefire on Iranian terms. February 26th. The final Situation Room meeting. Trump goes around the table. Vance: "You know I think this is a bad idea, but if you want to do it, I'll support you." Rubio: "If the goal is regime change, we shouldn't do it." Cheung, the comms director, warned it contradicted everything they'd said for eight months about Iranian nuclear facilities being destroyed. The CIA director said regime change was possible "if we just mean killing the supreme leader." Nobody said no. Everyone deferred to the president's instincts. The Treasury Secretary and Energy Secretary, the two people who would need to manage the largest oil supply disruption in history, weren't even in the room. Neither was the Director of National Intelligence. The next day, aboard Air Force One, 22 minutes before the military deadline, Trump sent six words: "Operation Epic Fury is approved. No aborts. Good luck." Source: New York Times

One of the darkest days in Lebanon’s recent history! 100 Israeli strikes in 10 minutes across different regions. More than 250 have been killed and 1,200 wounded, with the toll expected to rise as civilians remain trapped under the rubble. My heart is aching. I’m still in shock.

Reality will follow soon, inshaAllah
