Marc Lamont Hill interviews Chris Hedges about the decline of American democracy. Hedges: "But the Democratic Party is part of the problem. It is the Democratic Party that gave us Trump by betraying the working class and selling their soul to corporate donors." youtu.be/rjz0VKAGARo?si…

If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, please consider attending one of firebrand socialist Kshama Sawant's upcoming rallies in the Bay Area. Sawant was a Seattle City Council member for ten years achieving significant gains for social justice ion the City, often against entrenched centrist Democratic Party council members. She has built the Workers Strike Back movement which has expanded onto the national stage. Workers Strike Back allied with the Green Party in 2024 during Jill Stein's Presidential campaign. Now, Kshama Sawant is running for Congress as an independent against the incumbent Adam Smith who is probably the most hawkish and warmongering Democrat in Congress. I believe Sawant has a good chance of defeating Smith in November. More info here: kshamasawant.org/events/342/

@IndianConserva5 @SweeneySteve That's a joke right? You cannot be serious. After Israel obliterated several hundred thousand Palestinian civilians in Gaza together with almost every building, are you so delusional as to think that?

@SweeneySteve You were not supposed to be there. Israel does not target civilians on purpose. FAFO!

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

@designed_future @SweeneySteve Israel has deliberately targeted and killed hundreds of journalists just in the last three years. If you can't see the pattern then you are delusional (and likely paranoid and psychotic like most Zionists).

Bro thinks he's on the same level as Khamenei and Laridjani. But actually he just decided to stand next to a place he knew was going to be targeted, so he could bitch and moan about it later, and pretend that Israel is going to use a multi-million-dollar jet, risk a highly trained pilot, and use up like $ 100 grand in fuel and ammo, just to mildly scare him. Because that totally makes sense to idiot antisemites.

Let's see how many Western media outlets cover this story as is, if at all they cover it? I bet some serious use of passive voice in their headlines and stories are incoming, sprinkled with some scare quotes and at times skipping the name of the perpetrator as if there was a devine intervention.

Trump, in a cringeworthy 'joke', referred to Pearl Harbor in the presence of the Japanese Prime Minister. He's an embarrassment, and an ignorant jerk. youtu.be/6JkVUN1j7TQ?si…

Max Blumenthal (@MaxBlumenthal ) is brilliant here as he explores and elucidates what motivates Trump to go to war with Iran, and yes of course Israel has manipulated Trump throughout with concocted assassination threats. youtu.be/XQGnWJ8lVT8?si…

@Lowkey0nline Yesterday, he condemned the assassination of a Lebanese journalist with his family and called it a war crime, so they tracked him and tried to assassinate him too.

Our correspondent Steve Sweeney has been wounded by an Israeli strike in Lebanon. He says an IDF plane fired upon the car carrying Steve and his cameraman, as they were crossing a bridge in the south of the country. Both men are conscious in hospital, doctors are diagnosing extent of shrapnel damage. War journalists are not legitimate targets. We pray for them.

This is what limitless immunity looks like. i§rael has already killed more than 250 journalists in Gaza. In many cases i§rael specifically announced its targeting of Palestinian journalists and then went ahead and killed them. This is all because the world stayed silent on i§rael's savagery for decades. This world created this monster.

@Lowkey0nline I am waiting for @BBCBreaking to explain this ...

@Lowkey0nline @earthygirl011 KEIR STARMER WHERE IS CONDEMNATION? NO? CAUSE NOT

Horrifying. This British journalist the day before was reporting on journalists killed by the Zionist regime. The next day this happened while he was on air.

We're protesting outside a massive war profiteer convention here in Seattle downtown. Washington's Democratic Governor Bob Ferguson said he's "proud to welcome" over 700 war companies. NO WAR ON IRAN NOT ONE DOLLAR MORE FOR IMPERIALIST WAR x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Classic Keir Starmer - condemns Iran while ignoring Israel’s strike on the world’s largest gas field at South Pars, which triggered the escalation. What a pathetic excuse of a Prime Minister.

This is probably the most important article of the month: an op-ed by Oman's Foreign Minister, who mediated the talks between the U.S. and Iran, in which he writes that the U.S. "has lost control of its foreign policy" to Israel. He repeats that a deal was possible as an outcome of the talks (something confirmed by the UK's National Security Advisor, who also attended: x.com/i/status/20341…) and that the military strike by the U.S. and Israel was "a shock." Interestingly, given he is one of Iran's neighbors and given that Oman has been struck multiple times by Iran since the war began (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran…), he writes that "Iran’s retaliation against what it claims are American targets on the territory of its neighbours was an inevitable result" of the U.S.-Israeli attack. He describes it as "probably the only rational option available to the Iranian leadership." He says the war "endangers" the region's entire "economic model in which global sport, tourism, aviation and technology were to play an important role." He adds that "if this had not been anticipated by the architects of this war, that was surely a grave miscalculation." But, he adds, the "greatest miscalculation" of all for the U.S. "was allowing itself to be drawn into this war in the first place." In his view this was the doing of "Israel’s leadership" who "persuaded America that Iran had been so weakened by sanctions, internal divisions and the American-Israeli bombings of its nuclear sites last June, that an unconditional surrender would swiftly follow the initial assault and the assassination of the supreme leader." Obviously, this proved completely wrong, and the U.S. is now in a quagmire. He says that, given this, "America’s friends have a responsibility to tell the truth," which is that "there are two parties to this war who have nothing to gain from it," namely "Iran and America." He says that all of the U.S. interests in the region (end to nuclear proliferation, secure energy supply chains, investment opportunities) are "best achieved with Iran at peace." As he writes, "this is an uncomfortable truth to tell, because it involves indicating the extent to which America has lost control of its own foreign policy. But it must be told." He then proposes a couple of paths to get back to the negotiating table, although he recognizes how difficult it would be for Iran "to return to dialogue with an administration that twice switched abruptly from talks to bombing and assassination." That's perhaps the most profound damage Trump did during this entire episode: the complete discrediting of diplomacy. If Iran was taught anything, it is: don't negotiate with the U.S., it's a trap that will literally kill you. The great irony of the man who sold himself as a dealmaker is that he taught the world one thing: don't make deals with my country. Link to the article: economist.com/by-invitation/…

Jeremy Corbyn’s painstaking Gaza Tribunal report found the UK government was an “active participant” in the Gaza genocide BBC has not published a single word about it Into the memory hole - with rest of information revealing the truth about how British power really operates

The fucking @TheDemocrats do not deserve to win the midterms just by sitting by and letting Trump commit war crimes and drag the entire world into the abyss. Do something, you absolutely useless and worthless cowards.

Israel must be wiped off the map. If that is not apparent to you now as a necessity for humanity, it will be eventually.

Just to kill Larijani at his daughter's house, the Epstein Syndicate bombed AN ENTIRE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD near Teheran. At least one hundred CIVILIANS were murdered with him. Murdered by barbarians who proud themselves of not reading anything - like neo-Caligula. Larijani wrote books on mathematics and Kantian philosophy. Functionally illiterate Barbaria can only excel when it comes to killing sprees.
