IDF soldier puts cigarette in Mother Mary’s mouth in Lebanon. Israel’s disrespect towards Christians continue. Why is the world silent?

Whatever was left of the "West's" moral standing and credibility was destroyed here, in Gaza. Gaza will be rebuilt, but it will take a Herculean effort to rebuild the standing of the West.

🇮🇷 Iran's newly created Persian Gulf Strait Authority has reportedly emailed shipping companies with stranded vessels in the Gulf, laying out its instructions for passing through the Strait of Hormuz: 1. Payment of tolls in Iranian Rials 2. Guarantees issued within the Iranian banking system 3. Countries that caused or contributed to damages during the war must pay reparations before obtaining a permit. Countries that sanctioned Iran or blocked its assets abroad are banned entirely 4. All documents must use the name "Persian Gulf" 5. Non-compliance results in vessel seizure and a fine of 20% of cargo value 6. All vessels must follow designated corridors and comply with Iranian Armed Forces instructions 7. Israeli-flagged vessels and any ship going to or from Israeli ports are banned Simple enough, right?

🇺🇸BREAKING: Someone placed a $920 million crude oil short at 3:40 AM. 70 minutes later Axios reported the US and Iran were close to a deal. Oil dropped 12%. The trade made $125 million in profit. Minutes after that Iran launched the “Persian Gulf Strait Authority” and oil surged 8%. $760 million placed before Trump’s last announcement. $920 million placed before this one. Every major announcement in this war has been front-run by someone who knew it was coming. What kind of war is this? This is more like a trading desk with an army. Never stop connecting the dots.

In 49 seats in Bengal, under-adjudication voters exceeded win margins. This assume significance in view of Justice Joymalya Bagchi's observation that if no. of deleted voters was higher than margins, the court would have to apply its mind. @OishaniB_ altnews.in/bengal-results…

Meet the late Rajie, the Palestinian designer:

I have not met a single bjp supporter who is a decent human being. Not one.

🚨🚨UAE media are saying that it was Saudi Arabia that carried out the attack to disrupt oil exports, not Iran. Iran also denied today that it had struck any sites in the UAE."

Imagine... their mothers might have met over a cup of tea. Or bought ribbons from the same shop

While you were busy fretting over Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and other states' futures, the people of Dharavi in Mumbai were hitting the streets against Adani—fighting for their own survival! Two MLAs, two MPs, and hundreds of residents protested in Dharavi, but not a single mainstream media outlet covered it. When one party dominates a state, who really benefits—the people or the industrialists? Dharavi is the brutal, living proof. This ground report exposes the residents' fears, Adani's draconian rules, and the homelessness dread haunting hundreds of families. If I'd released it on May 4, you wouldn't have seen it. Now watch how the double-engine government truly operates! youtu.be/oJf36O09fP0?si…

US now wants UN to "solve" the Hormuz Strait problem created by its war.

This is how BJP has created factories to control the media and narrative. This looks like a robot warehouse not a party office. Each one of them has a salary beyond your imagination.

An article that shocked Jews today The article is from Haaretz It predicts the end of Israel, the article's title: Netanyahu will leave, but the state will die with him Article summary: Netanyahu didn't just destroy the state, he destroyed everything. Society is divided, the country is eroding, the army is weak, the judiciary is fearful, the media is superficial and the Knesset is unbalanced. There is no solution to the Palestinian issue. The Zionist parties are ruling. Netanyahu caused unprecedented global hatred for Israel. There is no longer sympathy for us. Jews have become hated by the world. Netanyahu's exit from power means the fall of Israel.

If you're Jewish or non-Jewish, please, let the world know: Video from last night in Monroe NY, The message was unmistakable: “We oppose and have no part in Zionism and State of israel” Not fringe. Not small.

NO KEBABS OR KULCHA NAHARI!!! Food historian Pushpesh Pant says it best, “I find this exercise laughable and not worthy of serious comment… the word ‘cuisine’ was being fundamentally misunderstood.”

Yesterday I wrote that Reza Pahlavi is a U.S. citizen, and published the document, many Iranians were stunned. But this is not a technicality. It cuts straight to the core of his entire political claim. Think about it: the man who presents himself as the leader of an Iranian nationalist movement is a citizen of the very country that, together with Israel, has been bombing Iran. That is not a small contradiction. It is the contradiction. In Maryland, only U.S. citizens can vote. Reza Pahlavi's U.S. citizenship is not a rumor. But after looking further, I realized this is bigger than political hypocrisy. It is a case of two oaths that cannot both be true. The first oath: October 31, 1980, Qubba Palace, Cairo. On his 20th birthday, after the 1979 revolution had driven the Pahlavi family into exile, Reza Pahlavi declared himself "Reza Shah II" and took an oath as king. Under Iran's lion-and-sun flag, he pledged to devote his life to Iran, defend its independence and sovereignty, protect the rights of Iranians, and work for national unity. That oath is the foundation of the royal claim he has repeated for more than four decades. The second oath: years later, on American soil. Under 8 U.S.C. § 1448(b), any naturalization applicant who has held a hereditary title or foreign order of nobility must expressly renounce it under oath, with the renunciation entered into the record. That is not symbolism. It is a legal requirement. And the U.S. naturalization oath says: "I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty…" It also says the applicant will "support and defend" the U.S. Constitution and laws, "bear true faith and allegiance to the same," and, if required by law, "bear arms on behalf of the United States." Now place the two oaths side by side. In one, he pledges to defend Iran's sovereignty and independence. In the other, he renounces all allegiance to any foreign sovereignty, which for the United States includes Iran, and pledges allegiance to America. These two oaths collide head-on. You cannot claim to be the guardian of Iranian sovereignty while having sworn, in legal language, to renounce allegiance to it. So one of the two oaths was false. There is no third option. If the 1980 royal oath was sincere, then the U.S. citizenship oath was not. If the U.S. oath was sincere, then the royal oath was already dead. If the royal oath was true, then he lied to become an American citizen. If the American oath was true, then the "rightful heir to the Peacock Throne" has already renounced the very claim he keeps selling to Iranians. Either way, the myth collapses. Now his official condolences for the three American soldiers killed at the start of the 2026 U.S.-Israeli war on Iran make perfect sense. That was not a diplomatic gesture. It was the second oath speaking. While Iran was being bombed, while hundreds of Iranian civilians were being killed in the first days of the war, including schoolchildren in Minab, the man who claims to lead an Iranian nationalist movement publicly mourned soldiers of the attacking power and thanked them for their service. That is not patriotism. That is not nationalism. That is allegiance. Royal traditions understand this very well. A claimant to a throne does not owe sovereign allegiance to a foreign power. Dual loyalty may be tolerable for private citizens. It is fatal for someone claiming national leadership. So the question is simple: Which Reza Pahlavi is real? The man who swore to defend Iran's sovereignty? Or the man who swore true faith and allegiance to the United States? A nation that has paid such a brutal price for independence should not be asked to hand its future to a man whose own signatures sit under two incompatible oaths. One of them was a lie. Iranians deserve to know which one. x.com/i/status/20514…

The scandal currently rocking Iranian twitter: Reza Pahlavi appears to be registered as a voter in the United States. Which would mean he's a US citizen. Which by law means he renounced any claims to a foreign throne. Which renders moot his campaign to be Iran's next Shah

Fantastic response.

Mamta Banerjee has done crime by not listening to Rahul Gandhi. If she had sat with Rahul Gandhi and discussed the issue, she would have been in better position. Rahul Gandhi has vision, he is a far-sighted leader, whatever he says, becomes true. — Sanjay Raut
