These are Auschwitz-level pictures. Any comparison of Israel to Nazis, or of the genocide they’re carrying out in Gaza to the Holocaust, are entirely appropriate. And only someone who is a liar or willfully ignorant could fail to acknowledge the complicity of the West in this.

It was a war crime when Russian military commanders attacked Ukrainian power plants, as the International Criminal Court charged them. It will be a war crime if Trump attacks Iranian power plans. trib.al/rniTham

This is Hermanos Ameijeiras Clinical-Surgical Hospital. Conceived to be the National Bank of Cuba before the Revolution in 1959. Instead, it was turned into a hospital. It treated 9/11 survivor firefighters. It has been plunged into darkness by a fuel blockade by the U.S.
James🔻@GoodVibePolitik

There’s something supremely saddening and enraging about seeing a hospital running on bare minimum power. Thinking about dialysis patients, babies in NICU, and others tonight in Cuba. This is a blockade of death.

Paul Begala is a Democrat pundit on CNN, & was the chief strategist for the Clinton-Gore campaign. He is as “centrist” or mainstream as Democrat as it comes. Here he is simultaneously advocating an act of war against Russia & genocide against Cuba. Vote Democrat? No, thank you.

HBO (3/20/2026): @PaulBegala on Russia sending 970,000 barrels of oil to Cuba "(Trump) needs to confront Putin in the ocean with that tanker and stop it and turn it around or sink it to the bottom of the ocean"

🇵🇸🚨Settlers torch 15 Palestinian villages across West Bank in seemingly coordinated retaliation Dozens of Israeli settlers carried out coordinated raids across many Palestinian villages, setting homes and vehicles on fire and assaulting residents, according to The Times of Israel. ➤ Attacks were recorded in Jalud, Fandaqumiya, Silat ad-Dhahr, and Qaryut, with footage showing buildings on fire as residents rushed to evacuate ➤ At least 9 Palestinians have been confirmed injured in a preliminary toll, including 3 in Jalud and 6 in the Jenin area, after being beaten by settlers. Many more are feared to have been come under attack. ➤ No arrests have been reported, consistent with a pattern of impunity in settler violence cases ➤ The raids come amid near-daily attacks in recent weeks and rising fears of retaliation after a settler was killed in a separate incident under investigation
Wally Rashid@wallyrashid

Right now, 1:45am local time, settler militias are raiding more than 9 Palestinian villages in the occupied West Bank. From Bethlehem all the way to Nablus, settler pograms are happening everywhere. This began at 12am local time and has not yet stopped 1:45am 3/22/26.

The Israelis thought that they could cast themselves as victims 3 weeks into a vicious and illegal war of aggression they started on Iran. People aren’t dumb. Israel is an expansionist supremacist settler colony incinerating everything around it with glee. Predictably, they are getting punched back due to the conditions their government created. It’s not pretty, but this is to be expected. It’s the ugly barbaric world Israel created, one of kill or be killed. The actual victims of this insane rogue state have been subjected to Israel’s nonstop penchant for destruction and are firing back for their survival. Now that they’re causing pain inside Israel, some Israeli hasbarists are whining that everyone is firing on us, we are the real victims, what are we supposed to do? This would be like asking why everyone is attacking poor Germany in 1943. Truly incredible, this regime bombs babies around the clock, displaces millions, rapes as a matter of policy, openly carries out land theft and genocide, brags about impunity and then wonders why they’re so despised and subject to retaliation.

Trump in Iran is threatening to commit the same war crime -- attacking civilian power plants -- that the International Criminal Court has charged four of Putin's military commanders with committing in Ukraine. trib.al/X2bAnhT

Correct, this is the way the game goes. In the run up to the Iraq war one FAIR study found that of 393 on-air sources, only 3 (less than 1%) were from the antiwar left, meanwhile Pat Buchanan was interviewed a half dozen times, and was THE primary “anti war voice” for US media.
Chase Madar@ChaseMadar

Would Zanny Minton Beddoes have granted an interview to a progressive non- or anti-Zionist like Ta-Nehisi Coates or @YousefMunayyer? I don’t see it. And a network star like Tapper, Cooper or Welker challenging her talking points is unimaginable. Alas that’s left us with Tucker

¡Leyanis, otra vez! Muchas felicidades pinareña por revalidar tu corona mundial bajo techo en Torun con un salto de 14.95 metros, igualando la mejor marca del año. Y nada menos que frente a Yulimar Rojas, que volvió a pisar fuerte con 14.86. No es casualidad: es constancia y talento, por tercera ocasión la reina mundial del triple es cubana.

Iran's new and latest missile hit Israel and caused 59 casualties so far and destroyed 20 buildings in an entire neighbourhood. Many were still under the debris. This is the biggest missile explosion ever in Israel and the most destructive one.

🗞️ The Trump administration has reportedly begun “initial discussions” on what potential peace talks with Iran could look like, according to Axios, with officials still expecting another 2–3 weeks of fighting, 🔸U.S. officials said Washington would seek several commitments from Iran in any deal, namely: 1. No missile program for five years 2. Zero uranium enrichment 3. Decommission Natanz, Isfahan, Fordow 4. Strict monitoring of centrifuges 5. Regional missile cap of 1,000 6. End support for groups like Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas 7. Reopen the Strait of Hormuz 8. Any deal would also reportedly need to address Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium. 🔸Trump envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are reportedly involved in shaping the framework. 🔸There has been no direct U.S.-Iran contact, with messages Axios says passed through Egypt, Qatar, and the U.K. instead. 🔸Iran has not confirmed specific mediation channels, but Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi hinted at involvement of other countries, when he told Japan’s Kyodo News on Saturday morning that Tehran is open to initiatives that would fully end the war: “We are ready to listen and consider. But right now, although some countries are trying to find a solution, the U.S. does not seem ready to stop its aggression. So we will continue to defend ourselves.” 🔸He also rejects a ceasefire without guarantees and compensation: “The war must be completely and permanently ended, and there must be guarantees that this situation will not be repeated. Additionally, the damages that have been inflicted on Iran must be compensated,” Araghchi told Kyodo News.

🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡️– Ali Alizadeh on the assassination of Ali Larijani: “Israel is selling these attacks as form of artificially intelligent oriented smart wars. The way they assassinated Ali Larijani, it had nothing to do with smart wars. In order to detect where he is, they come up with six or seven places and they bomb all of them in a blind way. In order to assassinate Ali Larijani, Israeli terrorist regime killed more than 500 people. And that’s what they call a smart wars.” Footage: Danny Haiphong

The Israeli military has been deploying in Lebanon the techniques of healthcare destruction it developed in Gaza. In less than three weeks, 128 medical facilities and ambulances bombarded, 40 healthcare workers killed and 107 wounded. Medicide.

🚨 NOBODY IS TELLING YOU HOW FUCKED REGULAR AMERICANS ARE RIGHT NOW. Not the news. Not your politicians. Not Trump. So I will. Three weeks ago — February 28, 2026 — Trump launched a war on Iran. That same day, your wallet started bleeding out. Here's every price that's gone up on you since then: ⛽ GAS Before war: $2.93/gallon Today: $3.91/gallon That's +$0.98 per gallon. +33%. In 20 DAYS. ⚠️ 🛒 GROCERIES Perishables going up first — dairy, fruits, vegetables, fish Beef already at multi-year highs (smallest herd in 75 years) Food transport costs rising DAILY as diesel spikes 💀 🏠 RENT & HOUSING Mortgage rates JUMPED the week war started "Undoing progress in housing affordability" — CNN Average rent in a mid-tier city: $2,000+/month ⚠️ ✈️ FLIGHTS Airlines will raise fares as jet fuel costs explode 💀 🏥 HEALTHCARE Interest rates frozen — no Fed relief coming ⚠️ 🌊 THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ 25% of all global seaborne oil trade passes through it. It's effectively closed. The IEA called it the LARGEST OIL SUPPLY SHOCK IN HISTORY. 💀 ⚠️ For context — the 1973 oil crisis caused a recession, fuel rationing, and ended a presidency. That impacted roughly 7% of global oil supply. This impacts 25%. Now. They're showing you maps of Iran. They're NOT showing you the math. $300 million. That's what American families are paying EXTRA every single day just to fill their tanks. Not to fund missiles. Just to drive to work. Drive their kids to school. Exist. First week of the war? $11 BILLION. Out of American pockets. Gone. $220 million a day goes to Operation Epic Fury. Every second of that spending = 577 school lunches. But there's "no money" for school lunches. There's "no money" for healthcare. There's "no money" for student debt. There's "no money" for veterans. They found $200 BILLION overnight for bombs. Meanwhile: 💀 – Lockheed Martin stock: UP 34% in 2026 – Northrop Grumman: UP 25.8% – Raytheon (RTX): UP 9.7% – Huntington Ingalls: UP 26.7% – Defense giants total profit surge: $30 BILLION while bombs were falling Your gas went up 33% so Lockheed could gain 34%. You're getting robbed in real time and CNN is showing you drone footage. 66% of Americans were already living paycheck to paycheck before February 28. Consumer confidence just hit its LOWEST point of 2026. The Fed won't cut rates. Inflation is about to spike. Groceries are about to get worse. JD Vance told you to "find comfort" that our allies are "suffering more than we are." That's the plan. You suffer. They profit. In 6 months, if the Strait stays closed, economists say food and fuel inflation could hit double digits. Your paycheck will not keep up. This is not a foreign policy disagreement. This is the most expensive wealth transfer in American history. And nobody is talking about it. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨
