In many cases the children urinate in their pants during their last moments alive, confused and unable to process what is happening to them. God have mercy on all the innocent.

Why is Donald Trump trying to kneecap Ukraine right now and force them to accept a terrible deal?
Because Russia is offering business deals to Trumpâs crowd, and Trump knows a corrupt peace deal will be harder to do if Democrats are in charge of Congress.

"You wanna go after Islam, I understand where you are trying to go. What I don't understand is saying half a billion people haven't produced anything."
I can't imagine a CNN host casually, as an aside, saying "You wanna go after Judaism, I understand where you are trying to go."
To be clear, I'm glad the host was defending Arabs from RFK Jr's anti-Arab bigotry. But just casually accepting anti-Islam rhetoric as somehow understandable is a reminder of how normalized Islamophobia has become in our mainstream media. Sadly.

"Every baby in Gaza is an enemy," says a newly elected Israeli government politician.
"There are no innocents in Gaza," says an opposition leader.
In which other country on earth does this happen?

According to the Wall Street Journal, the US military has taken our Patriot Missile Defense System out of Texas and sent it to Israel in preparation for a new round of combat operations against Iran after the midterms.
At the same time, the Intercept reports that "top defense officials are expressing increasing worry about the vulnerability of U.S. bases around the world and even within the United States..."

Hi @GovMikeHuckabee what are you doing about this? A foreign country's citizens and military assaulting and wrongfully detaining a US journalist? What happened to 'America First'?
Hi, I'm free.
Beat up but fine. Police stole my phone. Settlers punched me in the face several times, likely broke @AdeleShoko's wrist and gave @the_andrey_x a concussion. They threatened to shoot us with an assault rifle over and over.
Will tell the full story later, but for now, I just want to be clear about what happened. We witnessed two settlers locking a military gate in Umm al-Khair, blocking the only way to more than twenty Palestinian communities: trapping families inside, preventing students from reaching school and workers from their jobs, blocking delivery of food and access to ambulances, etc.
It's a crime that the military has this ability at all--but last night, we discovered that random settler terrorists also have the key. We confronted them and began asking questions on camera, and they nearly murdered us for it. When the police finally arrived, they arrested Andrey and me and charged us with assault.
The gate is still locked.

Kentucky residents played a loud recording of the noise pollution from data centers to show its disruptive impact.
Within seconds, county officials grew irritated and told them to âact like adultsâ and turn it off.
The corrupt politicians who vote for and push these data centers onto our communities couldnât handle the piercing sound for a few seconds, yet expect residents to live with it every day.
Welcome to the USA, where politicians prioritize the bottom line of the corporations and billionaires that fund their campaigns over the needs of our people and communities.

Investigation finds American company Axon still supplies Israel with Taser weapons despite evidence they have been used to torture prisoners
In November 2025, the UNâs Committee Against Torture reported on allegations of torture, including the use of electric shocks, within Israeli detention facilities and noted that âtorture and ill-treatment had escalated sharply since 7 October 2023â.
The committee also expressed its âserious concern over widespread allegations of sexual abuse of Palestinian detainees ⊠including allegations of rape ⊠sexualised forms of torture ⊠electrocution of the genitals and anusâ.
Despite such concerns, Axon appears to have continued to sign contracts with Israeli entities to supply either the Taser gun or its accessories. As recently as June 2025, the company was showcasing the latest models of its electroshock weapons to Israeli security agencies at a conference in Israel.

Everyone still supporting Israel is a disgusting bigot. They're saying we should be ok with the fact that they killed 75,000 people, 22,000 children and destroyed all of Gaza because Muslim lives are no big deal. They prefer their fascist, ethno-state to lives of Muslim children.

Israel is the only country in the world that can bomb 9 countries and invade 3 neighboring countries in one year; kill 100,000 peopleâincluding 25,000 childrenâin 1,000 days; displace nearly 6 million people in 3 countries; starve 2 million people in Gaza; violate Geneva and Vienna Conventions, international law, human rights, and state sovereignty; kidnap, rape and torture children and women; shoot, imprison and murdering; and still be perceived as the victim.

Un 29 de octubre de 1948, soldados sionistas perpetraban una brutal masacre contra la aldea palestina de Safsaf, donde fusilaron a mås de 70 palestinos que izaban una bandera blanca y violaron a decenas de mujeres, incluida una niña de 14 años.
Entonces no existĂa Hamas ni el 7 de octubre e igualmente el sionismo destruĂa Palestina y asesinaba a civiles palestinos en limpiezas Ă©tnicas masivas para robarles sus tierras.
Yosef Nachmani, un alto oficial de la Haganå sionista, escribió lo siguiente en su diario después de la masacre de Safsaf:
"En Safsaf, después de que los habitantes izaran una bandera blanca, los soldados reunieron y separaron a hombres y mujeres, ataron las manos de 50 o 60 campesinos, los fusilaron y los enterraron en una fosa. Ademås, violaron a varias mujeres... ¿De dónde sacaron semejante grado de crueldad, como los nazis?".
SegĂșn el historiador Nafez Hazzal, quien entrevistĂł a los sobrevivientes de la masacre varias dĂ©cadas despuĂ©s, un campesino que sufriĂł la masacre de Safsaf le dijo:
"Mientras formĂĄbamos filas, unos soldados judĂos ordenaron a cuatro muchachas que los acompañaran para llevar agua a los soldados. En lugar de eso, las llevaron a nuestras casas vacĂas y las violaron. Unos 70 de nuestros hombres fueron vendados y fusilados, uno tras otro, delante de nosotros. Los soldados recogieron sus cuerpos y los arrojaron sobre el cemento que cubrĂa el manantial del pueblo, y les echaron arena encima".
En el video, soldados sionistas que participaron en masacres contra las aldeas palestinas como Safsaf o Tantura en 1948, admiten sus crĂmenes contra inocentes palestinos.

There are many uniquely bizarre aspects to the US/Israel relationship but the most bizarre is how relfexively pro-Israel Americans will side with that *foreign country* even when they attack, beat, persecute or kill their own fellow Americans.
It's extra surreal, and disgusting, watching politicians who call themselves "America First" -- like Mike Huckabee -- do this.
Ambassador Huckabee, this is unreleased video of an American who was beaten almost to death last week by Israeli settlers. You know his name because he came to you for help, but you blew him off. Thatâs disgraceful. Do your job.
