***Documented Thread*** Israeli deaths during war with Iran are at least 50% higher than the death toll currently quoted by major media in the U.S. ▪️21 Killed in strikes by Hezbollah and Iran (military + civilian, excluding 4 Palestinians) ▪️4500+ Hospitalized

In a leaked video of Netanyahu, he says: “We are working to bring Iran to places it has never been before. They will understand that they are below, and jews are above.” This is exactly what they mean by goyim.

“The Lavon Affair (1954), or "Operation Susannah," was a failed Israeli covert "false-flag" operation aimed at bombing American and British-owned targets in Egypt to frame local militants. It sought to block the British withdrawal from the Suez Canal zone, but resulted in the capture of an Egyptian Jewish spy ring and political scandal.”

Famously doing crimes with all official documents just about to slide out of a pocket.

She's was Stanford Law School's ethicist.

Will Stancil—fresh off a week calling anyone publicizing Israeli lobby superpac donations antisemitic—says that your (and the international community’s) use of the word Genocide is a little *too* harsh, needs to see way more dead Palestinians before he’ll revisit this matter

In China, Seven dogs stolen from their owners have gone viral after escaping from an illegal transport truck and making their way home. They traveled 10.5 miles/17 km together, led by a corgi across highways and fields, now safely back with their respective owners.

ICE in airports sounds great, I often find myself wishing someone would shoot me in the head when I'm waiting in line at security.

Curiosities of scientific research: If you think your work is useless — remember the Swedish Navy. In the 1980s, Swedish naval hydroacoustic systems were picking up suspicious signals that were identified as the noise of Soviet submarines. Search teams spent months trying to find evidence of an intrusion, but without success. After the collapse of the USSR and the end of the Cold War, the mysterious signals continued. So the Swedish authorities sent a research team to investigate what was going on. In 1996, Professor Magnus Wahlberg conducted a study and discovered that the sound was produced by herring — when their swim bladder compresses, excess gas is released through the anal canal in the form of air bubbles. This acoustic pattern is unique and found only in herring. For 15 years, Swedish naval forces were, well… listening to herring farting.

The US has now sanctioned at least 12 judges, prosecutors, and legal experts linked to the ICC and the UN. Their “offense” was pursuing accountability for war crimes and violations of international law. Take a moment to think about the insanity of this.

The late Robert Mueller was a Bill of Rights Executioner while he was FBI chief. The precedents he set on the Patriot Act & total surveillance continue to ravish Americans' privacy. My piece: libertarianinstitute.org/articles/the-l…

We’ve reached the “Trump throws every last item of food in the kitchen at the narrative wall to see if anything at all sticks” stage of denial that US is losing another middle eastern war, this one on a much faster time scale

Fuck off with this "do not reflect the majority of Israeli society" horseshit. This IS Israeli society.

The “goal” of the Iran war is now reportedly to open the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war began

If you buy what Centcom is selling, this is the most accident-prone the US military has been in its entire history. The F-15 entered service 60 years ago and its never been downed during a war. Now 5 of them have been downed by "malfunction" and "friendly fire" in 2 weeks.

Israel has bombed over 100 ambulances in Gaza and the West Bank since October 2023.

Growing up in Gaza, I spent the early years of my childhood at the Latin Patriarchate School, Gaza’s Catholic school. There, my Christian teacher taught me the Quran as part of my Arabic language classes. Our headmaster, Father Manuel Musallam, instilled the values of patriotism, love of the homeland, and pride in Palestine’s Christian and Islamic history in an entire generation of students. In fact, if Father Musallam were to be part of any other struggle for liberation, he would have been honored and remembered for his resistance and anti-oppression theology.

now in @jadaliyya "The seventh Israeli invasion of #Lebanon is being waged in both the shadow of genocide in Gaza and within the world that Israel’s permission to commit genocide has created. This is a world where international law has become a punchline, where there are no..."

Words that describe what Israel is doing in Lebanon: War crime, occupation, ethnic cleansing, threat… Words @nytimes uses: “military-controlled buffer zone”

@SkyYaldaHakim I guess no talks happened. Just to save the Market crash

When Trump says the U.S. has had "very good and productive" conversations with Iran, and Iran says "there are no negotiations," one of them is lying. This is not a gray area. This is not a matter of different perspectives or competing interpretations or the natural ambiguity of diplomatic language. Either talks are happening or they are not. Either progress is being made or it is not. Iran has said, in clear language, through official channels, for the record: There are no talks. We have not agreed to negotiate. No intermediary has brought us a proposal we have accepted. Nothing the American administration has announced reflects any actual diplomatic contact. That is a factual claim. It is either true or false. If it is false, Iran is lying to its own people and to the world about the existence of negotiations, which would be an extraordinary diplomatic gambit with no obvious strategic benefit. If it is true, Trump is lying to the American people and to the markets about negotiations that don't exist, which is consistent with a documented pattern of Trump making announcements that bear no relationship to underlying reality. The press covers it as "dueling claims." It is not dueling claims. One side is lying. The evidence about which side that is has been accumulating for years.
