Yikes: Exodus 19:4-6 cited above. Now I will take a hot and disinfecting shower!

Here, comments I made on some dude’s Substack, but in a nutshell: My god, these people still cut comments on their fucking Substack if they smell a whiff of parsing out the reality that New York and New Jersey are states with most of the Jews in the USA, and that the NJ governor is certainly influenced by Jew York and Jew Jersey.

Here, from Wolfnotes, first:

Shame On Sherrill – For Silent Support Of Trump’s Illegal War

The Gov. did not even call Trump’s war a War (passive voice “attacks”). She did not name Iran (“Middle East”). It sounds like the Gov. is concerned about Iranian self-defense retaliation on their US attackers.

She did not mention the fact that the war is illegal and not authorized by Congress, ratified Treaty, or the UN/International Law, which are high crimes and grounds for impeachment.

The Gov. did not mention the fact that Trump attempted to justify this war based on BIG LIES, which she surely knows as a former member of the House Armed Services Committee, an experience Sherrill touts.

Sherrill also brags about her experience as “a former Naval officer”, so surely she knows that members of the military pledge an Oath to the Constitution and that members of the military have an affirmative duty to disobey illegal orders and can be prosecuted for murder and war crimes for following illegal orders that kill people.

The entire US military chain of command – from Hegseth down to the drone operators – are now war criminals.

Nor did she condemn Trump for waging an illegal and immoral, unprovoked war of choice.

Sherrill stated that there is no known threat to NJ? What about NJ’s enlisted folks in harm’s way?

So, my first comment was:

Oh, no, what is antisemitic?

The most significant attack — and one with far-reaching consequences — Feb. 28 was on Beit-e-Rahbari, the residence of Ayatollah Khamenei, in a decapitation strike. It was successful. The Judeo-American alliance killed Khamenei along with several of his family members, including his daughter and granddaughter. Regime change in Iran has been at the top of the Israeli-American agenda, and the possibility of killing Khamenei was openly floated by the aggressors during the June war as well. They went ahead with it this time and did finish off the head of the Iranian state.

As the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei was not just a political head of Iran, he was also the preeminent spiritual leader of Shia Muslims. Deriving their theology and culture heavily from the Prophet’s grandson Hussein’s last stand against a numerically much-superior army of the tyrant Yazid in the Battle of Karbala in 680, in which he ascended as a martyr, martyrdom is seen as the highest ideal in Shia Islam. For good reason, the news of Khamenei’s martyrdom has brought millions of Iranian Shias into the streets pledging their support for the Islamic Republic. This same sentiment has poured into the streets of other countries with Shia populations, from the neighbouring Iraq to the much farther Pakistan and even in the intensively-surveilled police state of the Indian occupied Kashmir.

+–+

Dang . . . This is antisemitic?

My new comment.

When families were finally directed to a gathering point to receive the bodies of their children, he slowly moved forward. When asked if he needed help, he shook his head silently and waited for his daughter’s body to be brought out.

“I cannot understand how a place where innocent children learn can be bombed like this,” Shariatmadar told Drop Site. “We are talking about small children who knew nothing of politics or wars. And yet they are the ones paying the highest price.”

Some 170 students were inside the building attending morning classes when the missile struck. At least 108 people were killed, according to the public prosecutor’s office in Minab, many of them schoolgirls between seven and 12 years old.

It was unclear if it was a U.S. or Israeli strike. On Saturday, CENTCOM’s spokesperson said they were “looking into” the reports.

“My heart is broken,” Shariatmadar said. “For Sara and for all the children we lost today. I want the world to know that the children are the real victims. Every day that passes without a solution increases the pain and the suffering for the families and for the children alike.”

Minab sits far from Tehran, but the school was adjacent to a naval base belonging to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. Hormozgan province, where the small city of Minab is located, borders the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most strategically sensitive waterways.

A resident of Minab, who spoke to Drop Site on the condition of anonymity, said explosions shook the city Saturday morning, sending residents into an immediate panic. Then reports started emerging that the school had been hit.

My next comment:

Oh, the power of an armchair and American exceptional BULLSHIT art.

The former and recently assassinated Supreme Leader of Iran, Khomeini, was anything but an evil man

Paulo Kirk

Mar 1

Read full story

The former and recently assassinated Supreme Leader of Iran, Khomeini, was anything but an evil man.

Evil is a term better reserved for those who murder dozens and dozens of elementary schoolgirls, or who murder people in small boats without evidence and without any kind of due process.

Evil is a term better reserved for those who blockade entire countries even unto death; or for those who steal the wealth of formerly sovereign nations; or for those who call for a return to colonization of the global majority; or for those who aid and abet their allies’ genocides and their seizure of the territory of their victims; or for those who assassinate the leaders of other countries with whom they pretend to be negotiating; or those who would block evidence of crime and corruption on the part of elites; or for those who kill US citizens merely because they are protesting these and comparable evils.

New York and New Jersey hold the highest concentrations of Jewish people in the U.S. As of 2022–2024 data, New York State is home to approximately 1.67 million to 1.79 million Jews, while New Jersey has a population of roughly 581,000 to 626,000. Together, these states contain over 25% of the total U.S. Jewish population.

Yikes, that’s AI Google. Now, there are tons of Jewish organizations and obbying groups who are applauding the Murder Incorporated of the Jewish State of Murdering and Raping and Maiming and Starving Occupied Palestine.

I doubt your governor is going to be humane and justice-driven enough to speak out on that Trump Murder Boy and his Cap’n Crunch and his Department of War Crimes.

Please do not remove this comment. Israel is a terrorist state, called Nazis by Jews like Finkelstein and Pappe.

bill wolfe

You seem to misunderstand what I wrote: (and Zionism is not the jewish religion – it is a racist imperial ideology)

“After years of US funding and support of an Israeli genocide in Gaza, I won’t even pretend that US government officials give a rats ass about the people of Iran and have any objections to US military murders of Iranian civilians, including women and children, and slaughtering Iranian troops (a la “turkey shoots” in Iraq).”

Paul Haeder

Crazy, after four college degrees and world travel and working in unions and as a real newspaper journalist to be now lectured on what real Judaism is and what it isn’t! Whew, I just turned 69 and now I see. Well, not really. 19 million Jews worldwide and hands down they go to synagogues and listen to rabbis and most believe in the apartheid State of Jewish Israel to have a right to exist. Oh, is that pre- 1969 nakba boundaries. Is that a better mowing of the lawn?

Gilad Atzmon, yep, listen to his jazz and his take on his former birthplace and religion.

Cheers….

All that education and you fail to understand the difference between religious belief and political ideology and power.

A large fraction of the MAGA base call themselves Christian Nationalists. Are they practicing the tenets of Christianity or power politics?

Perhaps you need one of those multiple-choice fake IQ/logic tests:

Christian Nationalism is to Christianity like Zionism is to:

You win the prize today (and it is pathetic to open a communication with a claim to some college education).

Paulo Kirk

Whatever, and in today’s world, yep, let’s look at what Christianity’s history is and Judaism’s history is. Let’s look at their books, the Torah and Old Testament.

MAGA? The average person in MAGA goes to the churches, dude, the tens of thousands of churches of many denominations, and alas, they are following the tenets of their religion, what their pastors and ministers spew out.

Religion is not in some silver-lined box. Religion is what it is as people practicing it see it, embrace it and “develop”/”Devolve” it.

Read, dude:

Judaism and Zionism Are Inseparable by Ammiel Hirsch

Judaism absent Jewish peoplehood is not Judaism; it is something else. Whenever Jews abandoned their ideological — or practical — commitment to Am Yisrael, they eventually drifted away. This was precisely the accusation leveled by Reform Zionist Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver toward his anti-Zionist colleagues in the pre-war years. By continuing to insist that the Jews are “no longer a nation, but a religious community” (Pittsburgh Platform, 1885), Reform rabbis were, Silver contended, reconstituting “Paul’s insistence upon a religious creed entirely divorced from nation and land.” In a scathing critique, he noted that this declaration of Reform rabbis “was the first of its kind ever made by an assembly of Jewish religious leaders,” implying that had the Reform movement continued down this path, we, too, like the early Christians, would have eventually drifted away from Jewish civilization.

These two foundational principles of Judaism — nationhood in the Land of Israel — accompanied us throughout the centuries of dispersion. Unlike every nation of antiquity that lived by our side, we did not disappear when our national sovereignty was dissolved. Miraculously and unprecedentedly, we learned to adapt and survive. But at no time was separation from the Land of Israel considered permanent. At no time did we abandon the dream of return. At no time did we consider dispersion to be a blessing. At no time did the rabbis sever Torah from Israel, or God from the people. At no time was tikkun olam — the universal demand to do what is just and right — ripped from the moorings of klal yisrael — the centrality of Jewish peoplehood. It was never one or the other. One without the other diminished both. It was all part of a unified whole. Loyalty to the Jewish people absent concern for all the families of the earth is a distortion of Judaism. And tikkun olam divorced from Jewish peoplehood is not Jewish universalism; it is just universalism. To contend that the Hebrew prophets cared only about repairing the world, and not about the well-being of the Jewish people as a people, is to misunderstand and disfigure the entire prophetic tradition.

+–+

Your war mongering guv? Yep, another Jewish-influenced believer in genocide.

Mikie has spent her time in Congress voting to send billions of American taxpayer dollars overseas to fund Israeli war crimes and genocide. She even voted for AIPAC’s main censorship bill in an attempt to CRIMINALIZE criticism of the Israeli government!

+–+

Oh, another Jewish rabbi quoted here:

Even as Jewish anti-Zionism seems to be intensifying, in particular among the younger generations in America, anti-Zionist Jews constitute a small minority of our people. On the Right, this minority is composed largely of Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) Jews, whose lifestyles and values are outside the mainstream of world Jewry. On the Left, they are largely so-called progressive Jews, who, whether by word or deed, are regurgitating the old, discarded Classical Reform rejection of Jewish peoplehood. In truth, Jewish anti-Zionism is an anachronism. The majority of the world’s Jews already — or will soon — live in Israel. With every passing year, Israel becomes stronger, and its influence on world Jewry increases. Israel is here to stay. Anti-Zionism is a luxury of secure Jews, those who do not feel threatened by widespread Jew-hatred. It is hard to find any anti-Zionist Ukrainian Jews. To the contrary, Israel is preparing to absorb tens of thousands of immigrants from Russia and Ukraine in years to come.

“Zionism is the return to Judaism even before the return to the Land of Israel,” Herzl said to the delegates of the First Zionist Congress. It was an astonishing insight, a prophecy we now know to be true: By reviving the Jewish nation, Zionism revived Judaism itself. It is impossible to envision Judaism today without the State of Israel. Zionism restored the Jewish people to history, propelling us back to the future.

On my first glance at the Tel Aviv skyline in final descent above Ben Gurion Airport, the white city slowly emerging from the azure sea, I often recite to myself these words from Amos 9:14:

I will restore My people, Israel. They shall rebuild ruined cities and inhabit them. They shall plant vineyards and drink their wine. They shall till gardens and eat their fruits. And I will plant them on their own soil, nevermore to be uprooted from the soil I have given them.

Ruined cities are rebuilt, the people restored, nevermore to be uprooted from the soil of the Promised Land.

Tracking Power update

War with Iran is coming

Why have Western governments been waging an economic warfare against Iran for almost five decades?

The Islamic Republic of Iran was subject to a focused Mossad-inspired attack on the 8th and 9th of January.

The Islamic Republic has never wavered in its support for the Palestinian people’s struggle against Zionist oppression and has been a bulwark against the Greater Israel project.

That’s why Benjamin Netanyahu’s desperately trying to persuade the United States to mount a full-scale war against Iran.

So, in our first report, Latifa Abouchakra explains how the West’s economic warfare campaign provides a backdrop to the riots that have recently been in the news.

Our next report looks at why the United States pulled back from the brink of a full-scale war with Iran at the eleventh hour.

Judaism and Zionism Are Inseparable by Ammiel Hirsch

The Jewish story begins in Genesis chapter 12:

And God said to Abram: “Go forth from your native land . . . to a land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation . . . and you shall be a blessing . . . and all the families of the earth shall bless themselves through you.” And Abram passed through the land . . . and God said, “I will assign this land to your offspring.”

From this point forward, and forevermore, the Torah establishes two foundational principles of what became Judaism:

Nationhood and national territory.

The people of the world who are confused about ZIonism, Israel, Judaism, well, they ARE the enemy: Here, some good writing.

The West did not save Iranian women. It buried their daughters.

Liz Loh-Taylor Mar 02, 2026

The Woman the Empire Invented

The United States and Israel keep inventing women they claim to save.

These women are always far away. Always flattened. Always spoken about, never listened to. They exist as justification, not as people.

Iranian women are the latest version.

We are told they are uniformly oppressed. Permanently silenced. Frozen in submission. The people telling this story have never walked Iranian streets. They have never sat in Iranian cafés. They are afraid to go. Fear does the work for them.

A friend of mine has just returned from Iran.

Women in crop tops and leggings.
Women fully veiled.
Women working.
Women not.

It looked no different to Lebanon. Complexity. Contradiction. Choice mixed with constraint. Real life.

I have spoken to countless women myself. Muslim women. Hijab. No hijab. Across borders and contexts the West collapses into caricature. They argue politics. They work. They study. They love. They disagree with their governments and with each other. They defy the flat image painted for them by people who have never listened long enough to hear them speak.

That reality is inconvenient.

So Washington and Tel Aviv erase it. They reduce Iranian women to a single helpless image. A woman who needs saving. A woman who gives moral cover to pressure, sanctions, and war.

This is an old trick.

Afghanistan was bombed to save women. Then abandoned.
Iraq was invaded to free women. Then left in ruin.
Libya was destroyed in the name of protection.
Syrian women became refugees in a proxy war sold as concern.

The script never changes.

Women are turned into symbols.
Symbols are weaponised.
Real women pay the price.

I have seen what this looks like on the ground.

In Tyre, Lebanon, I met a Shia woman. She did not ask to be saved. She spoke about women sending their sons to the front line. Not because they love war, but because they refuse a future lived in fear. She said they will keep sending them so the next generation does not grow up looking over their shoulders. So they can live with liberty on their own land.

This is what Israeli–US power leaves behind when it speaks the language of protection. Women are not rescued. They are left to carry the cost.

Then there was Iman. I met her in Egypt. A Palestinian in exile.

She did not ask to be saved either.

She holds a university degree. Another course is already lined up. She translated for me from Arabic to English with precision. Not serviceable. Perfect. She is opinionated. Clear. Unafraid of argument.

She does not need saving from her culture.
She does not need saving from her people.

She only needs saving because the West destroyed the conditions of her life.

First, the empire invents the woman who needs saving.
Then it destroys the women who do not.

Which brings us to Iran. And to a girls’ school.

You Do Not Save Women by Killing Girls

An Israeli–US bomb hit a girls’ elementary school in Iran.

Girls aged seven to twelve.
In class.
At their desks.

This is not rhetoric. It is fact.

The same United States and Israel that claim they must attack Iran to save women have killed girls in a school.

Read that again.

This is not a tragic contradiction. It is the truth breaking through the lie.

When Washington and Tel Aviv talk about women’s rights, this is what it produces. Not safety. Not futures. Rubble.

These girls were not threats.
They were not symbols.
They were children.

And they were expendable.

The response will be familiar. Investigations. Statements. Language designed to manage outrage rather than confront what happened.

But no statement resurrects a child.

You do not save women by killing girls.
You do not liberate societies by bombing schools.
You do not claim feminism while practising empire.

We have seen this ledger before.

Gaza.
Afghanistan.
Iraq.
Libya.

Iran is not an exception. It is confirmation.

The United States and Israel do not act to protect women. They act to preserve power. Women’s suffering is invoked when useful and discarded when inconvenient.

Iranian women do not need missiles.
They do not need myths.
They do not need empire speaking in their name.

The myth survives.
The girls do not.

The West did not save Iranian women.
It buried their daughters.

For the record,
Liz

Inside Texas A&M’s Scramble to Censor Its Curriculum

By Jasper Smith and Megan Zahneis

The policy, passed by the system’s Board of Regents in December, marked an expansion of a November rule that prohibited “advocacy” of the same subjects. It came as a “gut punch,” as one administrator described it to another in an email, to representatives of the university’s College of Arts and Sciences, who now had weeks to “mitigate” the relevant material in their syllabi and apply for limited exemptions, or face canceling classes students had already enrolled in.

While the policy was originally drafted to head off one academic-freedom controversy — in which an instructor was fired after a student secretly recorded her teaching about gender — it quickly sparked another. A philosophy professor, Martin Peterson, was told to remove readings from Plato from his syllabus, a move that drew criticism from across higher ed.

Back to the Navy Pilot Cunt: She even voted for AIPAC’s main censorship bill in an attempt to CRIMINALIZE criticism of the Israeli government!

Whoops, insert AOC for Mikie . . . . another fucking Talmudist Cunt: Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez voted for a resolution on Wednesday which endorses a bogus Israel lobby definition of anti-Semitism.

In backing the measure, she broke with several other members of the so-called Squad, the dwindling group of progressive Democrats in Congress, and sided with the Anti-Defamation League, a powerful Israel lobby group that welcomed the resolution’s passage.

Fucking Jews, dudes, these are JEWS pushing this, not some fucking fabricated rice paper shield called “zionist”:

In the United States, where the First Amendment protects free speech, criticism of Israel cannot be outlawed outright.

But the EU has called for the IHRA definition to be used by law enforcement agencies as a tool to “better recognize anti-Semitism and anti-Semitic crimes” and to “assess security threats.”

Israel and its lobby have also pushed for the IHRA definition to be adopted by private institutions, including schools and universities in the United States, where it has become increasingly common to use the pretext of combating anti-Semitism to crush student protests against institutional complicity in Israel’s genocide.

A number of college campuses across the US have already adopted the IHRA definition. Its further normalization and embrace by public officials, especially self-identified progressives such as Ocasio-Cortez, lends it further credence.

Even without it being codified as the law of the land, the IHRA definition is already a danger to free speech and advocacy for Palestinian rights, which is why Casca’s assurance that Ocasio-Cortez opposes its “codification” is a deflection.

They, the Jews and their Jew Wannabe Christian Zionists, are coming for us:

Does any discussion of white privilege violate policy, even if the instructor is explicit that the goal of discussing privilege is not to assign guilt or blame, or to tell any individual student that they are an ‘oppressor’?” Would a reading that describes a privilege walk “violate policy even if the reading is criticizing that approach?

Reflecting on the flooding of the timeline with Bafta’s N-word coverage Kehinde opens by saying that we’ve missed the point. We focus on the spectacle and not the real issue. Of course, the BBC shouldn’t have aired the N-word and the Bafta’s should have shown more care… but we expect too much from a racist system.

Speaking of a racist system, Kehinde addresses the Green Party’s win in the Gorton and Denton by election. Thankfully, Reform’s less than mediocre White male candidate Matthew Goodwin lost out but the far right party remains a threat, particularly if they make a coalition with the next Prime Minister of the UK….Kemi Badenoch

He is then joined by Dr. Wandia Njoya, a prominent Kenyan scholar, public intellectual, and social commentator known for her critical analysis of education, culture, and politics in Africa. She is an Associate Professor of Literature at Daystar University in Kenya, where she has also served as the Head of the Department of Language and Performing Arts. Wandia holds a PhD in French from Pennsylvania State University. Her scholarly work focuses on French and African literature, film, gender issues, and the interrogation of “what it means to be human” in the modern world.

Dr. Njoya is one of the most vocal critics of Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). She argues that the system prioritizes “practicality” and neoliberal productivity over genuine critical thinking and the arts. She frequently writes about decolonising the African mind and the academy, drawing inspiration from figures like Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o, Thomas Sankara, and Malcolm X. Her blog, Wandia Njoya, has won multiple awards from the Bloggers Association of Kenya (BAKE) for its commentary on social issues. She is a regular contributor to The Elephant, where she publishes analyses on political elite culture, gender, and education.

… fucking Iranians in Portland are celebrating the murder of the Supreme Leader of Iran . . .

Paulo Kirk

Mar 01, 2026

Listen to Michael at the end of this:

Dozens of teenage girls were attending their regular training sessions of volleyball, basketball, and gymnastics in the main sports hall in Lamerd, a city near the Persian coast, when a missile slammed into the building at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Additional strikes hit two nearby residential areas and a hall adjacent to a school, as the U.S. and Israel pounded targets across Iran on the first day of what President Donald Trump declared as a regime change war. According to local officials cited in Iranian state media, the strikes on Lamerd killed at least 18 civilians and wounded scores more.

“Within seconds of the missile strike, the windows shattered into thousands of fragments. Sports equipment, balls, tables, and barriers flew through the air. Black smoke filled the space. The smell of gunpowder made breathing almost impossible. The screaming began immediately, layered with the sound of debris collapsing and concrete falling from the ceiling,” Mohammed Saed Khorshedy, a 29-year-old worker at the gym who witnessed the attack.

The bombing of the sports hall in Lamerd came hours after a strike on a girls’ elementary school in Minab, another small city on the Persian Gulf, further east near the Strait of Hormuz, that, according to the state-run IRNA news agency, killed 165 people, many of them schoolgirls. Neither the U.S. nor Israel claimed that strike. The Israeli military said it was not aware of strikes in the area of Minab; CENTCOM’s spokesperson said they were “looking into” reports. Another strike hit an adjacent IRGC naval base and the USS Abraham Lincoln is stationed nearby.

The governor of Lamerd said

“The United States and the Zionist regime fired missiles at the sports hall while female students were playing inside,” according to the Fars news agency.

As of Sunday morning, the Iranian Red Crescent and state-linked media have reported preliminary casualty figures of over 200 people killed and more than 740 injured across Iran. Iran launched retaliatory strikes across nine countries in the region: Israel, Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, with a total of 18 killed.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi condemns the targeted killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei, calling it a despicable act by So-called democratic powers.

May these fucking Portlandians all be taken out in the woods, heads chopped off, and fed to slugs.

Hundreds of Iranian-Americans met at Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse Square on Sunday to celebrate this weekend’s military strikes against the Iranian government, which they say has been the source of brutal repression for decades.

For weeks, the group of Iranian Americans of Portland has gathered at Pioneer Courthouse Square to dance, sing, and ask for the federal government’s help in toppling the Iranian government headed by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the country’s supreme leader for nearly 40 years.

They got their wish Saturday morning, when the U.S. and Israel fired missiles into Iran, killing Khamenei and many other senior Iranian officials.

And for Iranians protesting in Portland, it was a party atmosphere.

Hundreds of people dance in downtown Portland, Ore., on March 1, 2026, to celebrate the recent military strikes in Iran, which killed Ayatollah Ali Khameini.

These people are so human stain, man, this is what AmeriKKKa is to these fascists.

Mir Dehdasht, an administrative officer at Azad university whose 15-year-old daughter Rabab Dehdasht was training at the sports hall, was at home when a neighbor knocked on his door to tell him the facility had been attacked.

“I ran immediately toward the place, and when I arrived, I found burning cars and rubble scattered everywhere,” Dehdasht told Drop Site. “The injured were bleeding heavily, some had lost consciousness on the ground, others were screaming without stopping. Their voices were deafening.”

He continued:

“Blood and dust covered everything, and the rubble blocked quick access to the building. Rescue teams were working with extreme care to bring out the injured athletes and the bodies of the victims. The screaming filled everything,” he said. “Robab did not survive the force of the explosion, while others survived but with life-threatening injuries. I felt complete helplessness.”

Prof. Seyed Mohammad Marandi, of the University of Tehran, noted that the people of Iran are united in the aftermath of the U.S.-Israeli murder of Iranian Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and that: “For Iranians, this is a war of survival. For Americans, this is a war of choice.”

During a speech to the Israeli Knesset Trump boasted,

“Miriam and Sheldon would come into the office. They’d call me, he’d call me. I think they had more trips to the White House than anybody else I can think of … she loves Israel. But she loves it, and they would come in, and her husband was a very aggressive man, but I loved him. He was a very aggressive, very supportive of me. And, he’d call up, ‘Can I come over and see you?’ I’d say, ‘Sheldon, I’m the President of the United States, it doesn’t work that way.’ He’d come in”.

Trump similarly boasted on the campaign trail in 2024 that,

“Miriam and Sheldon would come into the White House probably almost more than anybody outside of people that work there. And they were always after — and as soon as I’d give them something — always for Israel. As soon as I’d give them something, they’d want something else”, and last year boasted , “Sheldon was an amazing guy, and he’d come up to the office, and there was nobody more aggressive than Sheldon. he’d always say 10 minutes, it turned out to be about an hour-and-a-half, and what he did is he fought for Israel. He just wanted to take care of Israel”.

He boasted that Miriam and Sheldon Adelson were “responsible for so much” during his fist term including when he “terminated the disastrous Iran nuclear deal”, the deal negotiated in 2015 that limited Iran’s nuclear enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief, which Benjamin Netanyahu attempted to stop by giving a speech in front of the U.S. congress urging them to block the deal.

In 2017, after Trump “opted not to push for steps that could undo the nuclear agreement,” he added a line in his speech saying he “could still cancel the deal ‘at any time.’” Politico reported that, “The line was added to Trump’s speech after (John) Bolton, … reached the president by phone on Thursday afternoon from Las Vegas, where Bolton was visiting with Republican megadonor Sheldon Adelson. Bolton urged Trump to include a line in his remarks noting that he reserved the right to scrap the agreement entirely”.

Bolton, an Iran hawk who later became Trump’s national security adviser in 2018, was also deeply connected to the Adelsons.

RE: Laura.

There were wild celebrations in bunkers across Tel Aviv—and even a Florida congressional office—as exciting news updates rolled in. The European colonisers stopped cowering for a moment as they heard the death toll of Iranian schoolgirls had risen to 148. Most of the victims were aged 7 to 12—a lucky few were pulled screaming from the rubble, but many more remain buried beneath.

“This is why we’re winning, baby!” one settler boasted on Larry Ellison’s TikTok. “They haven’t touched a single one of our schoolgirls. Fucking losers!”

Israel’s latest success came after a precision-guided missile struck a high-value military target: the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school in Minab. US Rep. Randy Fine set off seismometers as he jumped with joy, shrieking “Bombs away!”

Dirty fucking AmeriKKKans: Anousha Sedighi, a professor at Portland State University, said while she understands those concerns of further U.S. military involvement in the region, she would like other protesters to understand the experiences of Iranian people.

“We know you’re tired of the U.S. getting involved in other countries,” Sedighi said. “But there is nothing like the lived experience of a people. I hope you never know the sheer desperation of a people praying to be bombed only to be free.”

US crude rose about $5 a barrel, or 8%, to around $72 as futures trading opened Sunday evening. Brent crude, the international benchmark, initially rocketed more than 12% higher to about $82 a barrel but fell just below $80 a few minutes into trading. Brent settled at just over $73 a barrel on Friday.

Meanwhile, stock futures fell. Futures for the S&P 500, the Nasdaq and the Dow were all down about 1%. But futures for Exxon, Chevron and many other oil companies rose about 2% each. Defense stocks, like Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin, were up marginally.

Fucking VP of Venezuela.

The Foreign Affairs Ministry of Venezuela issued a statement Saturday condemning and deeply regretting that a “military route” was chosen through attacks against Iran, triggering a dangerous and unpredictable escalation. However, the communiqué surprisingly questioned Iran’s right to self-defense, drawing strong criticisms from the country’s Chavista base.

Venezuelan authorities described the military response by Iran against targets in various countries as “undue and condemnable,” questioning the right to self-defense, despite the fact that the Iranian response targeted US military assets throughout West Asia, not civilian installations.

Orinoco Tribune attempted to find the statement on Foreign Minister Yván Gil’s Instagram, Telegram, and Foreign accounts, but failed to do so as the previously uploaded posts appear to have been deleted. A digital screenshot of the document, however, was posted by Telesur English’s X account.

“The reports and images of attacks on civilian facilities within Iranian territory, which led to the innocent civilian casualties of young girls and other underage students at a primary school, caused deep dismay,” the communiqué reads. This is in reference to the joint Israeli-US missile strike on an all-girls school in Minab, Iran, killing more than 100 students.

The document concludes by reiterating “unwavering commitment to peace, peaceful settlement of disputes, and respect for sovereignty and international law,” meanwhile, urging the international community to return to negotiations.

According to analysts, the tone of the statement contradicts the strategic relationship built between Venezuela and Iran since the founding of the Bolivarian Revolution. Some suggest this may hint at Zionist influence within the Venezuelan government following the January 3 US military bombing of Venezuela and kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro. Many Venezuelans, however, made a distinction between Chavismo and the current government, arguing that Chavismo represents a movement larger than the current authorities.

María Corina Machado will return to Venezuela within a few weeks, she announced Sunday, as the Venezuelan opposition leader seeks a role in her country’s democratic transition.

Machado made her first public appearance in nearly a year in December, emerging from hiding to accept her Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. She later presented President Donald Trump with the prize during a meeting at the White House in January as a token of her appreciation for his support, despite the Nobel committee saying the prize could not be transferred.

MAGA MAGA MAGA: The Yale School of Management gathering reported 66% of executives surveyed plan to cut jobs or freeze hiring this year, with only one-third expected to hire at all. So, what’s driving this hiring freeze, and what does it mean for new graduates looking for entry-level positions?

This image, taken 35 years ago, shows Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of Iran, and Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, the Libyan leader—two prominent symbols of resistance against colonialism, two great martyrs.

RICHARD MEDHURST, back, even though the law is still after him!

Ali Khamenei built his life resisting empire. As a young revolutionary, he was arrested multiple times and tortured by the Shah’s US-backed SAVAK police. He survived an assassination attempt, and spent the Iran-Iraq War on the front, fighting a then US-armed Saddam Hussein.

Under his leadership Iran became the backbone of resistance to Western dominance in West Asia. He was one of the most consistent global advocates & material supporters of the resistance in Palestine, crucially framing it not as a sectarian struggle, but as the epicenter of resistance against occupation and settler-colonialism. He extended solidarity to anti-apartheid movements in South Africa, liberation struggles in Latin America, and any nation fighting to break from the orbit of imperial control.

He championed an economics which pursued both the expansion of national wealth and the administration of social justice through a “Resistance Economy” designed to achieve self-sufficiency & break free from Western capitalist domination.

Those who wish to criticize him from the western secular left ought recognize that Khamenei’s authority was rooted in a lifetime of Islamic revolutionary scholarship, producing a vast theological corpus. Aside from his role as a state leader, he was above all a Marja Al-Taqlid (source of emulation), a high position of leadership in the Jafari/12er school of Shia Islam, and served hundreds of millions of followers. His conservative social positions were not arbitrary edicts, but rather deeply consistent with the mainstream interpretations and beliefs of his Shia tradition.

To frame Khamenei as anything but a hero in the history of anti-imperialist struggle is to do the enemy’s work.

Going to War, Again, for Israel

Chris Hedges

Once again, America is going to war for Israel. Once again, many will die for the Zionist state, including American service members. Once again, we will stumble blindly into a military fiasco. Once again, we will do the bidding of a foreign power whose interests are not our interests, but whose lobbyists have bought up our political class, including Donald Trump. Once again, we will violate the U.N. charter by attacking a country that does not pose an imminent threat.

This is not our war. This is part of Israel’s demented vision of Greater Israel, of dominating the Middle East. But Israel needs our military, our taxpayer dollars, our weapons to do it. And we have handed them the keys to our formidable arsenal.

The architects of the war with Iran, which the administration feels no need to justify to the American public or the international community, admit it will not be quick.

Sen. Tom Cotton, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told CBS News on Saturday that the goal is not only to curb Iran’s nuclear program, but “dismantle their terror support network.”

“To do all that is going to take longer than the strikes on their nuclear program last summer,” Cotton said. “We’re probably looking at weeks, not days, of joint efforts by the United States, Israel and our Arab partners, who have also been attacked this morning.”

Israel’s lackeys in the political class, along with their courtiers in the media, including former American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) employee Wolf Blitzer, as well as academia, are shining examples of Israel’s transparent and often illegal meddling in the American political system. Forget Russia. Forget China. No foreign government comes close to exerting Israel’s influence.

Democratic Party leaders are not opposed to attacking Iran — they are opposed to attacking Iran without being consulted. Two dozen Democrats lept to their feet and applauded every time Trump threatened Iran, or lauded Israel, in his State of the Union address. The Biden administration and Democratic Party leadership made no effort to reinstate Barack Obama’s Iran nuclear agreement. It focused instead on sustaining the genocide in Gaza. It cheered Israel’s decapitation of Iranian proxies in Lebanon, Syria and Yemen. Kamala Harris in her feckless and tone deaf presidential campaign promised to continue funding the genocide, which alienated many voters, and labeled Iran our most dangerous enemy.

Endless war is a bipartisan project.

The flagrant interference by Israel in the American political system is documented in the Al-Jazeera four-part series “The Lobby,” which Israel and its supporters blocked from being broadcast. Pirated copies can be watched on the website Electronic Intifada. In the documentary, the leaders of the Israel lobby are captured on a reporter’s hidden camera explaining how, backed by the intelligence services in Israel, they discredit and silence American critics and use huge cash donations to control the American electoral process and political system.

Israel’s death grip on our political system is also documented in “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy” by John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt.

“If you wander off the reservation and become critical of Israel, you not only will not get money, AIPAC will go to great lengths to find someone who will run against you,” Mearsheimer, professor of political science at the University of Chicago, says in the documentary. “And they support that person very generously. The end result is you’re likely to lose your seat in Congress.”

Israel flies hundreds of members of Congress, often with their families, to Israel for lavish junkets at seaside resorts. These Congress members run up individual bills that frequently exceed $20,000. The Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007 attempted to restrict lobbyists from offering paid trips lasting more than one day to members of Congress. But AIPAC, which has never been forced to register as a foreign agent, used its clout to insert a clause in the act to exclude so-called educational trips organized by charities that do not hire lobbyists. The AIPAC-affiliated charity utilized to navigate this loophole is called the American Israel Education Foundation.

The investment by Israel is worth it. The United States Congress in 2016 authorized a $38 billion per year defense aid package from 2019-2028 for Israel. We squandered $ 4 to $ 6 trillion on the futile wars Israel and its lobby pushed for in the Middle East. Congress has, as well, authorized $ 21.7 billion in military aid to Israel to sustain the genocide.

God knows the cost of this war, but it will likely be in the billions of dollars.

We are back to where we were in 2003 with a war whose utopian goal is regime-change. It didn’t work then. It won’t work now.

The same fatuous lies have been dredged up to justify this war, with U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff telling Fox News that Iran is “probably a week away” from having the materials necessary to make a nuclear bomb.

This has been Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israel lobby’s mantra for three decades.

I’m not sure how we are supposed to swallow this after Trump announced last July, following U.S. air strikes, that “All three nuclear sites in Iran were completely destroyed and/or OBLITERATED. It would take years to bring them back into service…”

One lie supersedes the next.

Once again, we promise to bomb a country to liberate it, with Trump saying all he wants is “freedom for the people” of Iran.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s compound was bombed and, according to Israeli officials, he has been killed. Iran insists he remains alive.

The Israeli prime minister, like Trump, is calling on the Iranians to seize the “once-in-a-generation opportunity” to “take to the streets en masse, to complete the task of overthrowing the regime that is making your lives miserable.”

“This is your time to join forces to overthrow the regime, to secure your future,” Netanyahu said.

That every other attempt at regime-change in the Middle East resulted in disaster eludes them. This time, they promise, it will work.

We may not have assembled a ground force, as Bush did in 2003 for the Iraq war, but once you open the Pandora’s box of war, war controls you. You don’t control it.

American troops will likely be killed as Iran targets U.S. bases in the region. The Iranian navy has announced it is shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, the world’s most important oil chokepoint that facilitates the passage of 20 percent of the world’s oil supply. This will potentially double or triple the price of oil and devastate the global economy. Oil installations along with U.S. ships and military bases in the region will be hit.

Iran has already fired missiles at Al Udeid airbase in Qatar, Al-Salem airbase in Kuwait, Al-Dhafra airbase in the United Arab Emirates, the U.S. Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain and U.S. bases in Jordan. Explosions have been reported in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Thousands of innocents will die. Israel hit an elementary girls’ school on Saturday in Minab, a city in the Hormozgan province of southern Iran. Iran’s Tasnim News Agency cited the Judiciary of Minab as saying that the death toll had risen to 108.

The steady losses, and a huge spike in oil prices, will compound the frustrations of Trump and his Israeli allies. These frustrations, like those during the two decades of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, will ignite a protracted regional war.

Iran, under sustained attack, could eventually fragment and splinter, sending millions of refugees over its border and igniting the chaos we engineered in Libya. But Israel, whose goal is to degrade the military capabilities of its neighbors, will get what it wants.

We will be left with the mess.

Evil is a term better reserved for those who murder dozens and dozens of elementary schoolgirls, or who murder people in small boats without evidence and without any kind of due process.

Hmm, very skewed:

J Street: Stated it was “appalled” by the decision to launch a “war of choice” and emphasized that diplomacy remains the most sustainable path to regional security.
Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA): While supporting the goal of a nuclear-free Iran, the group expressed concern over the lack of prior congressional approval and urged a return to an enforceable diplomatic agreement.
Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP): Denounced the military action as an “immoral and illegal war” and expressed solidarity with the Iranian people against “warmongering”.
IfNotNow: Called the strikes a “reckless attack” motivated by political interests and warned of a broader regional conflict.

No, Khomeini was not evil. He was an extremely brave and moral man whose sense of morality wrongly if understandably led him to stand in the way of Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon, which it is now bound to do. Although erudite and clever he also led a government that has exhibited signs of extreme incompetence – as in its failure to properly defend itself against the very surprise attacks that have annihilated much of its leadership and their families; its failure in a timely fashion to accept the support of Russia and China before the very last minute; or to resist the US 2025 sabotage of Iran’s economy by arranging prior financial defense; and both to weed out treasonous pro-Western intelligence collaborators while liberalizing the culture and putting yet more blue water between it and the US supported and created feudal monarchies and prison states of the Gulf and of the region generally.

Netanyahu’s son is living in a luxury apartment in Miami with $680,000/year in state-funded personal security.

Meanwhile, Americans are dying for Israel in the Middle East.

They told us in school when we were young that he was a geographical explorer.

The butcher Magellan

The butcher known as Explorer Magellan the Crusader, and on his way to India in 1502 AD, he stopped a ship carrying 700 Muslims—pilgrims on their way to Mecca in the Gulf of Oman to perform the Hajj rituals—so he burned them alive on board!!!!
And he demolished nearly 300 mosques during one of his Crusader campaigns against Muslim East Africa.

When his fleet arrived in Mozambique, East Africa, he said:

“Now we have besieged the Muslims, and all that’s left is to tighten the noose around their necks.”

He encountered a ship returning with pilgrims from Mecca and looted all its goods, then crammed all the passengers—totalling 380—inside the ship and set it ablaze.
Magellan reached the Indian city of Calicut and destroyed it with his cannons.

He staged a display of war prisoners in the middle of the city after their hands, noses, and ears were cut off, their teeth broken, they were tied inside a ship, and then it was burned.

They taught us that Magellan was an explorer

But they never told us he was a criminal butcher in every sense of the word, harboring hatred for Islam.

(Magellan) was killed at the hands of a man named “Lapulapu,” a Filipino Muslim hero, after he learned of what he had done to the Muslims, and not killed by savage tribes, as they claim.

And the Filipinos still consider Lapulapu a national hero. Unfortunately, a fabricated history written by the enemies of Islam, forcing Muslims to read it through the lens of the Western Crusader!!!!!!

The new crusades’ ships.

The boss:

Africa needs nuclear deterrence. NOW! The leaders of the AES need to get that red button by ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

Burkina announces the closure of the United States embassy and labels Israel and Washington as terrorist states. With the dispatch to Tehran of two infantry battalions.

Khamenei was a moderate and had a fatwa against nuclear weapons. The reckless, brainless Epstein regimes have no fucking idea what they’ve unleashed.

The BBC gives a leading headline to nine people killed in Israel, while the 148 children killed in Iran remain what they were yesterday, a second-order story lower down the page.

THE LAST ENTRY: Iraq. Syria. Lebanon. Libya. Somalia. Sudan. Iran.

At 2:30 in the morning February 28, Washington time, a president who once promised to end the forever wars posted an eight-minute video to Truth Social and announced the beginning of a new one. Operation Epic Fury, they called it. Epic. Fury. The marketing department of imperial collapse has never worked harder.

B-2 bombers. Carrier-launched strikes. Explosions across Tehran, Isfahan, Qom, Karaj, Kermanshah, Tabriz. A girls’ school in southern Minab struck — the death toll now confirmed at eighty-five children and counting, their bodies still warm as the Pentagon prepared its briefings on strategic objectives. And the stated goal, delivered by the most powerful man on earth from behind a podium in a white USA baseball cap at Mar-a-Lago — regime change. “When we are finished, take over your government.” Spoken to ninety million Iranians as their cities burned, as though revolution can be airdropped like a leaflet.

Then, within hours, two things happened simultaneously that told you everything about what this day actually was.

Trump reportedly asked Iran for a ceasefire. The same man who promised to “destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground,” who told the IRGC to “lay down your weapons or face certain death,” who called this a “noble mission” — was reaching, through back channels, for an exit. Hours in. Not days. Hours. He has never looked weaker in his life, and given the competition, that is quite a statement.

And by evening, Netanyahu — the architect of this illegal and mad war, the man who called it Israel’s greatest existential opportunity, who on a Purim morning told the Israeli people that “the lion has roared, who will not fear” — boarded his official state aircraft, the Wing of Zion, which had spent four hours circling off the Israeli coast to avoid Iranian targeting, and flew west. Over Greece. On to Berlin. Away from the missiles he had launched. Away from the Israelis, he left to absorb the consequences.

Between those two datapoints — Trump’s panicked back-channel and Netanyahu’s flight to Germany — is the entire story of this war. One man ordered it from a resort in Florida. The other ordered it and then departed the country it was supposedly fought to protect. The Israelis sheltering in bomb shelters from Haifa to Tel Aviv, the enormous damage across both cities, the sirens, the predictable interceptor failures — they are the ones paying for a decision made between a man monitoring his social media metrics at Mar-a-Lago and a man indicted for corruption who needed a war to survive his own electorate.

Meanwhile, Iran announced it is preparing to deploy weapons “the world has never seen.” Trump announced — on Truth Social, naturally — that Khamenei is dead. For hours, Iran’s state media called him “steadfast and firm, commanding the field.” Then, by evening, Iranian state media confirmed it. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — Supreme Leader for thirty-five years, the man who outlasted eight American presidents, survived sanctions, assassinations, a brutal war with Saddam’s Iraq, the twelve-day war — is dead. The decapitation strike succeeded. Iran’s security council secretary promised an “unforgettable lesson.” Patriot systems failed to intercept the majority of the latest Iranian missile wave. China announced an immediate halt to all rare earth exports to the United States — triggered the moment the attack began. Beijing “closely monitoring.” The Iraqi resistance has officially entered the conflict. And the missiles kept flying.

What happened in the hours before the bombs fell will damn this administration in the judgment of history. The timing.

On February 26, in Geneva, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi sat across from Oman’s mediators and reached what Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr Al-Busaidi described publicly as a breakthrough. Iran had agreed to never stockpile enriched uranium above civilian levels. To full IAEA verification. To irreversibly downgrade its current stockpiles to “the lowest level possible.” Al-Busaidi said peace was “within reach.” These were not diplomatic pleasantries — these were the actual terms of an agreement taking shape in real time. What followed was aggression and perfidy in the technical sense of both words: attacking a country during active negotiations in which that country was demonstrably willing to make significant and lasting concessions.

Forty-eight hours later, the bombs fell.

And this is the second time. In June 2025, Operation Midnight Hammer struck three Iranian nuclear facilities — Natanz, Isfahan, Fordo — while negotiations were simultaneously underway. The sites were empty. Centrifuges relocated days earlier. The United States fired thirty Tomahawk cruise missiles at a mountain full of evacuated tunnels and declared it a strategic success. Trump announced he had obliterated Iran’s nuclear program. Then used that same obliterated nuclear program — the one he already destroyed — as the pretext for launching a larger war eight months later. An Israeli defence official confirmed to Reuters today that the date for today’s strikes was decided “weeks ago” — while those negotiations were still ongoing. The date was already circled on a calendar in Tel Aviv before the Geneva talks began.

You cannot make this up. You can only remember the day and wonder at the incompetence, the arrogance.

On the eve of Operation Epic Fury, Trump told reporters he was “not happy” with the negotiations. Iran wouldn’t “say the key words.” He was “not happy” — while Oman’s mediator was on television describing a breakthrough. While Araghchi was shaking hands. While technical committees were scheduling follow-on meetings.

Diplomacy, in the hands of this administration, is not a path to peace. It is reconnaissance and bad theater. A mechanism to identify what Iran values most, catalogue its concessions, then bomb the table while the ink is still wet. Twice. Same play, same script, same morning-after declaration of victory over rubble. If you needed proof that the goal was never nuclear disarmament, it arrived this morning in cruise missiles and burning schools and a ceasefire request that came before lunchtime.

Twenty-three years ago, a retired four-star NATO general named Wesley Clark walked into the Pentagon weeks after September 11th and was shown a classified memo from the Secretary of Defense’s office. Seven countries in five years, it said. Iraq. Syria. Lebanon. Libya. Somalia. Sudan. And finishing off — Iran. Clark went public in 2007. He was largely dismissed. Look at the scorecard now.

Iraq: shattered, the state dissolved, conditions created for ISIS that haunt the region still. Libya: warlord-fractured catastrophe. Syria: collapsed. Lebanon: gutted. Sudan: civil war. Somalia: perpetual catastrophe. And now, at the bottom of the list, exactly where it was always written — Iran.

The plan was never a response to September 11th. It predates it. Paul Wolfowitz told Clark in 1991 that the lesson of the Gulf War was blunt: the Soviets won’t stop us anymore. “We’ve got five, maybe ten years to clean up these old Soviet surrogate regimes.” Clean up. Like history is a mess to be tidied, and the tidying happens to require carriers and munitions priced at twelve million dollars each.

Iran was last on the list not because it was least threatening. Because it was most difficult. Because you needed the others dismantled first — Hezbollah degraded, Syria fallen, the regional architecture cleared — before striking the cornerstone. The cornerstone is now being struck, not because Iran built a nuclear weapon, not because Iran threatened the American homeland, but because the blueprint said so. And blueprints in Washington outlive every administration that claims to oppose them.

Trump didn’t write this plan. He signed it. The deep state doesn’t need loyalty. It just needs access to the launch codes and a puppet that is too incompetent, too weak to say no.

And then it truly went off

Iran launched dozens of ballistic missiles along with Shahed drones simultaneously at Israel and at US military bases across the Gulf — Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria. No warning. No choreography. The US Navy’s Fifth Fleet command centre in Bahrain was struck directly. Al-Udeid in Qatar — the same base Iran surgically grazed in June 2025 as polite face-saving theatre — hit again, without the politeness. Explosions in Dubai. Jebel Ali port — the largest port in the Middle East — struck by a missile. Eighteen explosions in the city by early evening, including debris from Iranian drones falling on the Burj Al Arab hotel. Long lines at petrol stations across Beirut within hours. Fourteen thousand flights cancelled. Etihad suspended all services in and out of Abu Dhabi.

Enormous damage in Haifa after two Iranian missiles. Thirty-five confirmed strikes on Israeli territory by evening, with Israeli emergency services reporting ninety-four wounded. The Iraqi resistance officially entered the conflict. The Houthis are resuming Red Sea operations. And Iran announcing weapons “the world has never seen” — brief, unspecified, delivered with the composure of a command that doesn’t need elaboration.

What made Iran’s current response different from June 2025 was not the scale. It was the discipline. Before bringing a single air defence battery online, Iran cleared its airspace of all civilian aircraft. Every commercial flight out. Then, and only then, did the military activate its integrated air defence network and begin the retaliatory launch sequence — roughly an hour after the first strikes landed. This detail, small and unreported in most Western outlets, says everything. Iran’s military took deliberate, methodical steps to ensure that would not happen again. This is not the behaviour of a regime in panic. This is the behaviour of a military that rehearsed this, lived through one version of it already, and came back eight months later with the lessons learned and the procedures corrected.

Now the man who started it and then fled.

Netanyahu addressed Israel this morning in full Purim biblical register — invoking Aman and Esther, the lion’s roar, the eternity of Israel. “The lot was cast,” he told his people. “We will stand as one person with one heart.” He told them there would be costs, “perhaps even heavy costs,” and that he knew they had the resilience to bear them.

Then he got on a plane.

The man who invoked Purim and the lion’s roar and the eternity of Israel was in Germany when the missiles hit Haifa. He will have his cowardly explanations — security protocols, command continuity, the Wing of Zion always evacuates during escalations. None of it changes what the image says about the distance between the man who asks his people for “heavy costs” and the man who decided not to be present for them.

Credible reporting suggests Trump was not so much the architect of this war as its willing dope of a hostage. The analysis holds that Netanyahu threatened to strike Iran unilaterally if Trump did not join him, making that threat precisely after Washington’s coercive task force was fully assembled in the Gulf — knowing the carriers and the munitions were in position, and that a unilateral Israeli strike would put American forces in the blast radius of Iranian retaliation regardless of whether Trump had ordered a shot.

The deepest irony: Israel is less safe than it was on Friday. The Strait of Hormuz is closed. Iranian missiles are hitting Haifa. Patriot batteries are being depleted. The Houthis have resumed Red Sea operations. The Iraqi resistance has entered. Iran has announced weapons nobody has seen.

How does this end? On whose terms?

Trump wants this short. He is watching the markets, the oil price, the approval numbers. Americans will not tolerate weeks of this with oil heading toward $150 a barrel, and Trump knows it. The back-channel ceasefire feelers before the first day was out confirm he knows it.

Iran was in Geneva on Thursday. The deal existed. The deal was bombed. And the terms available today — with the Strait closed, Patriot batteries depleted, Coalition sortie generation constrained by standoff distances and a Chinese rare earth embargo already running — are worse than the terms bombed forty-eight hours ago. The bargaining position has not improved. It has deteriorated. And a man is in Berlin.

The “protests” that preceded all this were marginally were manipulated theater. The economic collapse was genuine. The rial at 1.4 million to the dollar. Inflation at forty-two percent. Food prices up seventy-two percent. Visceral rage — all of it the consequence of sanctions designed in Washington to produce precisely this kind of social fracture. Let nobody diminish the legitimate fury of ordinary Iranians ground down by mismanagement and clerical arrogance and an economic siege that Western press invariably forgets to mention when discussing why Iranians are angry.

But into that genuine rage, other hands reached.

On December 29, (2025), as economic pain spread from Tehran’s Grand Bazaar, Mossad’s official Farsi X account posted: “Come out together into the streets. The time has come. We are with you. Not just from a distance and verbally. We are with you in the field.” One point one five million views. Former CIA director Mike Pompeo responded: “Happy New Year to every Iranian in the streets. Also to every Mossad agent walking beside them.” He said this publicly. The former head of American intelligence broadcast to the world that Israeli operatives were embedded in Iranian protests. Nobody in the Western media blinked.

Iranian security arrested a confirmed Mossad operative in Tehran in early January — filmed, confessing, detailing remote recruitment via social media, handlers in Germany, instructions to photograph targets, attend protests, relay footage abroad. Safe houses raided: weapons, ammunition, bomb-making materials. Israel’s Channel 13 had reported Mossad deployed approximately one hundred agents inside Iran before the June 2025 war to sabotage missile launchers and blind air defences. Electronic jamming equipment seized in Mashhad and Rasht, designed to hijack GPS signals on tactical drone systems. Israeli Unit 8200 hacked Iranian state television on June 18, 2025, cutting to footage of women’s rights protests with a direct Farsi instruction: “take to the streets and finish the job.”

This is not Iranian propaganda. The evidence is documented, much of it from Israeli sources who felt confident no consequence would follow. They were right. Until today, when all of it was confirmed dismembered. The network that was supposed to activate inside Iran during today’s strikes activated nothing — not because the agents lacked courage, but because they were identified, arrested, turned, or killed in the preceding nine months. Iran read the lesson of June 2025 and acted on it.

The 1953 CIA-backed overthrow of democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh — removed for nationalising Iranian oil — is not ancient history to Iranians. It is the operating framework through which every subsequent Western gesture toward Iranian dissent is correctly read. Pompeo confirmed the network was real on January 2, and too few filed it under evidence.

The regime change fantasy deserves not dismissal but demolition. Last night, history has provided the demolition in real time.

The Assembly of Experts convened within the hour after the Supreme Leader’s death. The command council activated. The IRGC issued a statement not of surrender but of escalation — “the martyrdom of the Supreme Leader obliges us to respond with maximum force.” The Basij mobilised. The judiciary, the parallel command structures, the bureaucracy — every instrument of state authority continued without interruption and, if anything, hardened in resolve. Iran’s constitution was written by people who survived the Shah, who understood what decapitation looks like, who engineered succession mechanisms for exactly this scenario. The successor process is now underway with the kind of orderliness that should terrify every architect of this operation. Not chaos. Definately not fracture. But procedure.

Khamenei’s death has done something the bombs couldn’t: it has handed every Iranian — religious or secular, reformist or hardliner, pro-government or not — a martyr. Not a politician. Not a general. The Supreme Leader himself. The emotional unifying power of that fact inside Iran tonight cannot be overstated and should not be underestimated. The demonstrations that have run through Tehran and Isfahan and Mashhad today were already pro-government. After last night’s confirmation they will be something else entirely. Something older. Something that doesn’t negotiate.

Washington’s theory of victory was always: kill the leadership, the population rises, the regime collapses, the MEK walks into the vacuum. What is unfolding tonight is the refutation of every part of that sentence simultaneously. The leadership has been killed. The population has unified. The regime has not collapsed. And the MEK — Washington’s preferred government-in-exile, the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, regarded inside Iran with the affection most populations reserve for collaborators — has no domestic base, no credibility, and no meaningful presence inside the country it claims to represent. A punchline with a Washington lobby budget.

Where this is heading…

The seismic implication of Khamenei’s confirmed death is not what Tel Aviv and Washington predicted. It is the opposite. The Islamic Republic has now demonstrated, in the most extreme test conceivable, that it can absorb the assassination of its supreme leader and continue fighting. Every movement in the Global South, every government that has quietly wondered whether resistance to American power is sustainable, every adversary calculating whether the United States can be deterred — they watched Iran’s command structure hold the line after its supreme leader was killed, watched the missiles keep flying, watched the succession activate without a single visible fracture. That demonstration, broadcast in real time, is worth more to the cause of multipolar resistance than any diplomatic communiques issued in the last decade.

Washington wanted to prove that American power can decapitate a government and trigger its collapse. It proved the opposite. And it did so in front of the entire world.

Even the Atlantic Council concluded this week that regime change from outside, without large-scale military intervention or internal elite rupture, “is not a credible near-term proposition.” They wrote that before the supreme leader was killed and the missiles kept flying. The architects know. They proceed anyway, because the goal was never the stated goal. It was the geography, the energy reserves, the dollar-bypassing trade flows, and the strategic buffer a sovereign Iran provides to the Eurasian architecture Washington finds intolerable.

Consider what this war costs America’s putative allies — the ones who privately begged Washington not to do this.

Trump’s May 2025 Riyadh trip produced two trillion dollars in investment commitments. The UAE has positioned itself as the global financial hub for capital flight from every uncertain corner of the world. Bahrain hosts the US Fifth Fleet. Qatar houses CENTCOM’s regional headquarters. All of them are under Iranian missile fire tonight. Kuwait condemned the attack on its soil as a “flagrant violation of sovereignty.” Oman’s Foreign Minister, who called the breakthrough forty-eight hours before the bombs fell, told Washington bluntly: “This is not your war.” Jebel Ali port — the economic engine of Dubai — hit by Iranian missiles this afternoon. Dubai International Airport concourse damaged. Residential areas struck. The US ambassador to Jerusalem today told American staff: if you want to leave Israel, “do so today.”

The Gulf monarchies understood though in the end still cowed, whatever their private feelings about Tehran, that a regional conflagration destroys the economic transformation projects that are their futures. NEOM. Dubai’s financial architecture. The post-oil diversification on which they’ve bet their national existence. All of it collateral in a war they did not vote for and cannot escape.

The Strait of Hormuz is closed. Confirmed by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, confirmed by the UKMTO, confirmed by tanker tracking services. Twenty million barrels per day. Thirty-one percent of global seaborne crude. Twenty percent of global LNG. The sole export route for Qatar and the UAE’s gas to China, India, South Korea.

The dollar’s share of global foreign exchange reserves has fallen to 57.8% — a multi-decade low, down from 71% at the century’s turn. China’s Cross-Border Interbank Payment System handles trillions in daily settlement. The mBridge platform — a central bank digital currency corridor connecting China, Hong Kong, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Thailand — is fully operational. Iran has been selling its oil to China in yuan for years. Russia dumped its dollar holdings from 41% to under 10%. The architecture for post-dollar energy trade exists. It was built in anticipation of exactly this moment.

China has now announced an immediate halt to all rare earth exports to the United States and we’ll see how it plays out. China controls ninety percent of global refined rare earth output — the materials required for guidance systems, missile components, jet engine coatings, permanent magnets in every advanced weapons platform the US military operates. Yttrium prices were already sixty percent higher this week, seventy times their year-ago level. Two North American coating manufacturers had already paused production. Now the tap is entirely off. The United States is attempting to prosecute a multi-day air campaign against a country whose most powerful strategic partner has simultaneously cut off the material supply chain for the weapons future campaigns require.

A sustained Hormuz closure triggers a decision cascade in every energy-importing nation not already NATO-committed. Do you accumulate dollar reserves to buy oil no longer reliably flowing through dollar-denominated channels? Or do you accelerate into the parallel infrastructure Beijing has been laying since 2018? Saudi Arabia — Vision 2030 dependent on stability, largest trade partner already China — has been offered yuan settlement for years. The moment the Strait becomes a war zone under American management, Riyadh’s calculation changes. Directionally. Irreversibly.

The pattern is not subtle. Saddam priced oil in euros. He was removed and Iraqi oil reverted to dollars within months. Gaddafi proposed a gold dinar. He ended face-down in a ditch in 2011. Iran settled in yuan. It is being bombed today. Every finance ministry in the Global South is drawing the same conclusion: dollar dependency is a liability, and the infrastructure to reduce it now exists.

The petrodollar system — the arrangement by which global oil was priced in dollars, forcing every importing nation to accumulate dollars, recycling into US Treasuries, funding the carriers now launching strikes on Tehran — is not a law of physics. It is a political arrangement sustained by trust in American management of the global commons. Every time Washington bombs a country that was negotiating in good faith, every time a breakthrough is torched from the air, every time the dollar is weaponized and another finance ministry updates its exit spreadsheet — the trust erodes.

Israel is the only state in the Middle East with nuclear weapons. Dozens of them at the Negev Nuclear Research Centre near Dimona — never declared, never inspected, never subject to IAEA cameras, snapback mechanisms, maximum pressure campaigns, or Operation Epic Furies. The state whose nuclear secrecy is protected by an American UN veto stands as the co-architect of a war fought in the name of nuclear non-proliferation. Its defence minister called the June 2025 strikes the “promo.” Its prime minister launched the main event and flew to Berlin when the response arrived.

The nuclear program was never the point. It was always the pretext.

Araghchi named it: “Trump has turned ‘America First’ into ‘Israel First’ — which always means ‘America Last.’” You may dispute the framing. You cannot dispute the observable fact that American sailors are ducking Iranian missiles at Bahrain’s Fifth Fleet headquarters while one leader watches from Mar-a-Lago and another watches from Berlin.

MAGA voters who showed up because they were promised an end to forever wars were right that America had been betrayed by elites who put foreign (Israel’s) interests above theirs. They had the wrong villain.

Fifty-three percent of Trump voters, polled before June 2025, said the US should not get involved in the Iran-Israel conflict. Forty-five percent of all Americans opposed US military action against Iran. The war proceeded. The base was ignored. The uniparty consensus — forged in think tanks funded by defence contractors who profit from every sortie, guided by lobbying infrastructure ensuring no American politician rises without pledging fealty to Israeli security interests — delivered the war the electorate couldn’t vote against and will now pay for in blood, treasure, rare earth supply chains, and the monetary arrangement that has subsidised the American standard of living for fifty years.

Final thoughts

Bismarck described preventive war as committing suicide for fear of death. He was right then. He is right now.

History will note that a deal was on the table, that the strike date was set in Tel Aviv while the deal was being negotiated, that eighty-five children died in a school in Minab, that the Strait closed by afternoon, that the ceasefire request came by evening. It will note the man at Mar-a-Lago and the man in Berlin. It will note that the supreme leader was killed and the missiles kept flying. And it will note that China turned off the rare earth supply to the military prosecuting the war within hours of it starting.

Iraq. Syria. Lebanon. Libya. Somalia. Sudan. Iran.

The list is complete. The twenty-five-year project has reached its final entry, and in doing so may have written the epitaph not of the Iranian republic but of the American one. The petrodollar that funded the carriers. The carriers that launched the missiles. The missiles that closed the Strait. The Strait whose closure accelerates the de-dollarisation that makes the next war impossible to finance. The rare earth ban that grounds the planes before the next forever war can be carried out.

The empire is eating itself. And it called that epic fury.

Latest

Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, age 86, was killed in a major attack by Israel and the US, Iranian state media confirmed early on Sunday. Supreme leader’s daughter, son-in-law, granddaughter also killed, as well as Iran’s top defense officials (read about the Ayatollah’s life here).
US-Israeli strikes hit over 20 cities across Iran on Saturday, says Iranian Red Crescent
IDF says dozens of top Iranians killed within seconds of Khamenei as CIA role emerges: Report says US spy agency tracked supreme leader’s location and handed intel to IDF; deaths of military chief of staff, defense minister and top IRGC commander also confirmed.
‘The most bitter news’: Iran reels as more than 100 children reportedly killed in school bombing: At least 100 children between 7 and 12 years old were reportedly killed in a strike on Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ school in Minab, southern Iran, with dozens more unaccounted for. The school appears to be adjacent to a Revolutionary Guards barracks (UPDATE: death toll at the girls’ school has reached at least 148).
IDF has dropped 1,200 bombs on Iranian targets since start of the war: On Saturday night, the IDF had said that over 200 aircraft had struck 500 Iranian targets.
Timing of US-Israel attack on Iran bears symbolic meaning in Judaism as Netanyahu references holiday of Purim: “Twenty five hundred years ago, in ancient Persia, a tyrant rose against us with the very same goal, to utterly destroy our people. Today as well, on Purim, the lot has fallen, and in the end this evil regime will fall too.” The passage from the book of Deuteronomy commands the ancient Israelites to remember an unprovoked attack by the nation of Amalek, and to eradicate the memory of Amalek once the Israelites are settled in their land (see commentary on this statement here).
Push from Saudis, Israel helped move Trump to attack Iran: U.S. intelligence assessments saw no imminent threat, but regional allies argued now was the time to strike.

Jews: Israelis unite across political divides in support of ‘justified’ war against Iran

Jews: Major American Jewish groups quickly backed the U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran Saturday morning, while urging heightened security at Jewish institutions amid fears of retaliation.

The strikes, which were billed by both President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as an effort to topple the Islamic Republic regime that has long targeted Israel, follow weeks of stalled diplomacy between the United States and Iran over its nuclear program that failed to produce an agreement.

The American Jewish Committee quickly threw its support behind the United States and Israel Saturday morning, writing in a statement that the “responsibility for this crisis lies entirely with Tehran.”

“The world will be a safer place when the threat of the Iranian regime’s illicit nuclear and missile programs, along with the IRGC, is dismantled once and for all,” the AJC said. “We hope today’s military action is a decisive step toward fulfilling that vital mission.”

In a post on X, the Anti-Defamation League wrote that it “stands with the United States, Israel and the Iranian people, who deserve dignity and freedom from a regime that murders its own citizens.”

. . . while children are gutted by Jewish-American missiles . . .

Paulo Kirk

Mar 01, 2026

Below is a commentary for the newspaper I have been publishing my “long-form” commentaries in on a monthly basis, and that newspaper, the Newport News Times, now the Lincoln County Leader, is on the proverbial chopping block.

Here, these people who are buying up what they call “struggling newspapers,” including the Leader:

News Media Corporation sells Oregon cluster to Country Media ...

Country Media, Inc., an Oregon-based company, has acquired numerous, often struggling, local newspapers, resulting in some closures and mergers. The firm, led by Steve and Carol Hungerford, has merged publications like The Chronicle and The Chief, while reducing print frequency for others, such as The World in Coos Bay, due to financial pressures.

Key Actions and Closures

The Umpqua Post: Ceased operations in June 2020 following its acquisition by Country Media.
Bandon Western World: Printed its final issue in July 2020.
The World (Coos Bay): Reduced print days from five to two in 2020.
Mergers: The Chronicle (St. Helens) and The Chief (Clatskanie) merged into The Columbia County Chronicle & Chief. The Lincoln City News Guard and Newport News-Times merged in January 2024.

I had a difficult time getting up the energy to go to this listening session and then the following film screening of the flick:

There were eight student journalists there to assist the listening session, students from the U of Oregon journalism program. I just can’t understand why their faculty mentor, Andrew DeVigal, could not start any session off with a moment of silence for fellow truth seekers:

“Israel has now killed more journalists than any other government since CPJ began collecting records in 1992,” it said in a statement.

It cautioned that the true number of journalists targeted and killed by Israel could be much higher because some of the killings could be potentially concealed by press restrictions and humanitarian difficulties that complicate conducting investigations during Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.

“With much contemporaneous evidence now destroyed, the true number of Palestinian journalists in Gaza who were deliberately targeted by Israel may never be known,” the CPJ said.

Here’s a small talk in Washington State around local journalism:

Local journalists and supporters of local news gathered at the Edmonds Theater in Edmonds, Wash., on Oct. 25, 2025, for a panel discussion and audience Q&A following the screening of the documentary “Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink.” The screening was co-sponsored by the League of Women Voters Snohomish County and the My Neighborhood News Network, which includes My Edmonds News, MLTnews, and Lynnwood Today.

+—+

You know, when it comes to “educated” people, those people in the League of Women Voters, and there were mostly retired folk at this Newport, Oregon event, and there were a few “city/county” officials, it’s if there is a bipolar collective psychosis going on. It was noon, Saturday, and I was the only fucker talking about the murdering spree by the Jews of Israel and the Jewish Kosher Nostra in the USA.

Mohammed Shariatmadar stood outside the wreckage of the Shajareh Tayyiba girls’ elementary school in Minab, in southern Iran on Saturday morning, unable to process what he was seeing. His six-year-old daughter, Sara, a second-grade student, was among dozens of girls killed when the school was bombed in the first few hours of the war launched by the U.S. and Israel against Iran.

In the immediate aftermath of the strike, he remained standing in the shade of a cracked wall, staring at the ground and ignoring the commotion around him. He didn’t approach the building, which had been sealed off, but he didn’t move away either. His hands knotted together, then separated, then knotted again, in a repeated motion. Every time a paramedic emerged or an ambulance moved, he quickly raised his head, then returned to staring at the ground. He asked no one a direct question. He was only waiting for his daughter’s name to be called.

“I cannot unde, rstand how a place where innocent children learn can be bombed like this,” Shariatmadar told Drop Site. “We are talking about small children who knew nothing of politics or wars. And yet they are the ones paying the highest price.”

Some 170 students were inside the building, attending morning classes when the missile struck. At least 108 people were killed, according to the public prosecutor’s office in Minab, many of them schoolgirls between seven and 12 years old.

It was unclear if it was a U.S. or Israeli strike. On Saturday, CENTCOM’s spokesperson said they were “looking into” the reports.

The students, college ones, mind you, were given a quick rundown of alternative (sic) sources of news:

Drop Site Newsl Counterpunch, Dissident Voice, Monthly Review, Intercept, Palestine Chronicle, Electronic Intifada, Lowkey, Covert Action Magazine, Consortium News, Empire Files, Break Through News, and a few dozen more suggestions to get these J students out of the morass of legacy media, and the manure pile of traditional news gathering and reporting.

They hadn’t been exposed to the Hulk Hogan-Peter Thiel-Adelson documentary:

It was diheartening, man, being around the middling crowd, the Democrats, man, so quick to attack Trump, but then, what about . . . .?

There currently exists one legislative vehicle in each chamber through which members can express their position. This month, six new Democratic House members have signed onto a War Powers Resolution aimed at constraining President Trump’s ability to deploy U.S. forces without congressional approval, bringing the total to 82. The legislation, led by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), was first introduced prior to the Trump administration’s unauthorized strikes against Iranian nuclear targets last June. The GOP appears to be largely unified behind a possible war, with Massie being the only Republican House member signed on to the House legislation. Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) have introduced a similar effort in the Senate.

Yet despite the resolution’s growing support, Democratic leadership has not clearly rallied behind it. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) has issued public concerns about Trump’s rush to war, but has not said whether or not he supports the Khanna-Massie bill.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y) statement did not oppose a war, but instead noted the “risks” involved and called for confronting Iran’s “ruthless campaign of terror, nuclear ambitions, regional aggression, and horrific oppression” with “strength, resolve, regional coordination, and strategic clarity” and urged the administration “to consult with Congress and explain to the American people the objectives and exactly why he is risking more American lives.” Following the Trump administration’s Tuesday briefing to the Gang of 8, Schumer added, “This is serious. The administration has to make its case to the American people,” fueling criticism that he was prepared to accept the president’s justifications.

“Leader Schumer’s statements are insufficient. Democratic voters want leadership that’s willing to take a clear stand and oppose the president on major issues like this,” Dylan Williams, Vice President for Government Affairs at the Center for International Policy, told RS.

Two recent reports suggest that this lack of pushback could be intentional. A Tuesday story from journalist Aida Chavez’s substack Capital and Empire says top Democrats have worked to block consideration of legislation that would force members to go on record regarding potential military action against Iran.

“The evidence, so far, is that leadership is trying to discourage that vote,” one activist and former congressional staffer familiar with dynamics on the Hill told RS. “And the primary people that serve are the few dozen Democrats whose donors are hawks, but whose voters don’t want regime change war. That’s who the party is trying to protect from having to take a vote, because it’s painful for those members to vote against their donors.”

Drop Site News reported last week that some Democrats on the Hill might support pursuing a military intervention in Iran but, understanding a war would likely be politically catastrophic, would rather not go on the record and instead let Trump and the Republicans bear the responsibility and the costs.

“Cynically, Schumer may also have the midterms in mind,” the Drop Site report says. “If Trump manages to topple the Iranian government, the ensuing chaos could prove a drag on Trump as the country heads into the November elections.”

As a result, party leaders may choose to stand by or tepidly oppose military action as opposed to forcefully weighing in one way or the other. (The Schumer aide who laid out this calculus in the Drop Site story said that the minority leader himself does not subscribe to that logic.)

Alternatives to the dying newspapers?

I’ll be interviewing John Washington on my radio show, and his pieces in Luminaria, well, way beyond what the U of O students are being exposed to:

This three-part series chronicles a Tucson family’s harrowing journey from Venezuela through the heart of the anti-immigrant policies of México and the U.S. The first chapter traces Yesenia’s journey with her kids from Venezuela to the United States and then back to México. The second chapter focuses on her husband Mariano’s escape from authorities. The third chapter focuses on the family’s desperate search for safety in México after being deported from Tucson.

The stories are based on more than a dozen hours of interviews by Arizona Luminaria and La Silla Rota reporters with Yesenia and Mariano in a town outside Mexico City, as well as interviews with their family and friends, public records, audio files and messages exchanged between Yesenia and Mariano over seven months.

Everyone Likes to Complain about the Weather and the News

by Paul Haeder

This could be a requiem for this dwindling newspaper, owned now by Country Media. But the real big boys are called vulture capitalists, and at the end of February, eight U of O journalism students and their mentor, Andrew DeVigal, director of Agora Journalism Center, came to Newport to inculcate a listening and talking session at the Atonement Lutheran Church.

There were about 25 Lincoln County residents engaging in a mini-town hall on the future of local journalism, and the power of printed or digital news to embrace a community’s trust and envelop a deep understanding of the issues that make a city or county work or not work.

The famous Bill Moyers puts us at the 35,000-foot perspective:

“It’s up to you to tell the truth about what’s happening to this country we love. It’s up to you to tell the truth about the struggle of ordinary people. It’s up to you to remind us that democracy only works when citizens claim it as their own. It’s up to you to write the story of America that leaves no one out.”

DeVigal has had 30 years in the trenches at various newspapers like the Contra Costa Times, New York Times, and with the Poynter Institute. He’s now working with aspiring journalists, and these students, representing half his current class, Engaged Journalism, helped participants in facilitated conversations on just what makes a good and vibrant informed citizenry “engage” with news.

We are at a crisis point, that is, crises, in terms of education, participation in governance, political literacy, and finding the news that a community needs to become better citizens.

Andrew’s classes have learned the power of Generative Dialogue Framework – a tool that could “help reimagine the future of engaged journalism.”

We know about food deserts and healthcare deserts, but who reading this knows about news deserts? Go to the website, usnewsdeserts.com, and you will find more than 350 interactive maps allowing the user to drill down to the county level to understand the state of local media in communities throughout the United States.

The number of news desert counties rose to 213 in 2025. Research shows that 1,524 counties have one remaining news source. That’s more than 50 million Americans having limited to no access to local news. The rise in news deserts was accompanied by an increase in newspaper closures, which ticked up to 136 this past year, a rate of more than two per week.

Here’s a pivotal point Andrew made in a recent editorial:

“To do better, we must first understand journalism not simply as an industry, but as a form of civic infrastructure that helps communities navigate crises of misinformation, disinformation and democratic instability.”

This listening session stressed the need for businesses to up the ante to strengthen civic health. Holding institutions accountable is one pathway that an engaged citizenry can build trust in news and information ecosystems.

There are four pillars to assessing a community’s civic health, according to the Press Forward organization:

• News and Information: Availability and accessibility of local news outlets.

• Civic Participation Ecosystem: Metrics like volunteer rates and voter turnout.

• Equity and Justice: Structural determinants, including historical racial and economic discrimination.

• Health and Opportunity: Social determinants such as medical debt, housing insecurity, and health insurance coverage.

Andrew stresses that more actors in the business and non-profit communities “can co-invest in community information hubs, local media collaboratives, libraries, nonprofits and cultural organizations that gather, share and contextualize trusted news and expert resources for their communities. They can also sponsor coverage that meets public needs and partner with universities to grow a diverse pipeline of civic media makers and journalists.”

The three-hour event in the early afternoon was centered around a survey that went out to Lincoln County, the same survey that has been conducted in other Oregon communities: Harriston, Salem, Oakridge, La Pine, Rogue Valley and Florence.

The second part of Saturday’s civic engagement was a showing of a 2024 documentary, “Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink.”

The film lays bare the crimes of hedge funds, those so-called vulture capitalists buying up newspapers for the real estate they encompass. There have been billions of dollars stripped from some of the more well-known newspapers. Alden is the second-largest newspaper owner in the United States, controlling approximately 200 newspapers through its subsidiaries, MediaNews Group (also known as Digital First Media) and Tribune Publishing.

Imagine 75 percent staff reductions, taking us into a new phase of the “ghost newspaper” – no regular beat reports, just papers running syndicated “news.”

Staffing Levels: An estimated 1,000 to 1,500 of the 7,200 newspapers in the U.S. have lost more than half of their newsroom staff since 2004.
Content Shift: A 2024 study of 500 papers owned by the largest chains found that over one-third of front-page content originated from non-local sources.
Ownership Trends: Many ghost papers are owned by large newspaper chains or hedge funds that implement aggressive cost-cutting measures to maintain profit margins.
Impact on Democracy: The loss of local “watchdog” reporting is linked to diminished voter engagement and higher local government costs due to a lack of oversight.

A third of the 1,800 papers – 600 – that were lost over the past decade slowly faded away. Most were suburban weeklies. Like the frog in slowly boiling water, few people in the community noticed anything different at first. There was no abrupt closure that grabbed headlines. Often, there was merely an announcement that the paper had been purchased by the owner of a nearby, larger daily.

Initially, the paper continued to be published under the same name, and the reporters who worked for the paper continued to aggressively cover local government. However, as circulation declined, the once stand-alone paper became a zoned edition of the larger paper. Over time, the building where the paper had been published for decades – often a landmark in the community – was sold and staffing was dramatically reduced. Increasingly, news coverage focused on noncontroversial topics – lifestyle features on people and events in the community. In the final stage, management at the larger daily paper announced that the zoned edition would become a weekly specialty publication, advertising supplement in the main paper or a TMC (total market coverage) product or shopper, distributed free to all residents in the community.

[Despite being published 20 miles apart, the front pages of Gannett’s papers in Scituate and Plymouth, Mass., are identical. These pages from Dec. 5 carry no stories local to the communities they serve.]

RE: Haunted By Ghost Papers — Can Massachusetts hyperlocal startups reconnect communities to the news–and each other?

In 2024, Alden closed eight weekly newspapers in Minnesota, including the Shakopee Valley News (160 years old) and the Jordan Independent (140 years old).

When I started in the newspaper arena, first in college 1974-79, the writing was on the wall: “Don’t expect to get a full-time job with a daily that has a Sunday edition. You’ll have to go to small towns and work for a daily, twice-a-week, or weekly newspaper.” The loss of over 2,100 newspapers between 2004 and 2020 is one reason we have such an uninformed public.

The digital landscape is still evolving. We have the Lincoln Chronicle, a non-profit on-line news outlet. But my contention is we have to support as many hardcopy newspapers in a mid-to-large city. Newport needs at least two newspapers, and this once-a-week Leader just doesn’t cut it.

Cutting jobs, gutting newsrooms, and believing in this so-called creative destruction are the death knell of America.

“Whatever they say about us, they can’t control us. We’re out to serve the public. That’s a red-blooded, virile statement, and by God, it’s true,” stated Harry Grant, Milwaukee Journal, 1963

More wise proof from 238 years ago why newspapers count? “Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.” — Thomas Jefferson, 1787

And so, 300,000 murdered in Palestine since Oct. 7 2023, and now the next Muslims….

This is the faggotry of a lobotomized cunt=tree:

You want real news?

According to intelligence reports from the Peña Nieto administration obtained by El Universal, Israeli mafias had been active in Mexico since at least 2000, primarily involved in money laundering and the sale of high-powered weapons. Between 2000 and 2010, Israeli organized crime groups collaborated directly with the Beltrán Leyva Cartel, supplying the organization with weapons and laundering its money. Mexican authorities learned about the scope of Israeli mafia operations in the country by around 2013, primarily in Mexico City, though the Israeli individuals involved had entered the country legally. Separately, the now-defunct PGR (Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office) had intelligence on the presence of Israeli mafia members inside Los Zetas training camps in the states of Tamaulipas, Veracruz, and Hidalgo. And since 2012, Mexican authorities had launched investigations into the smuggling and sale of weapons by former Mossad agents operating within the country.

[Founders of the Zetas drug gang learned special forces techniques at Ft. Bragg before waging a campaign of carnage.]

The connection between Israeli military expertise and Mexican cartel violence has roots that stretch back decades. Los Zetas, the cartel that terrorized Mexico throughout the 2000s and 2010s, were founded by more than 30 defectors from GAFE (Grupo Aeromóvil de Fuerzas Especiales), Mexico’s most elite special forces unit. According to a 2010 Al Jazeera investigation, some of these soldiers had been trained in the early 1990s by America’s 7th Special Forces Group at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Craig Deare, a former U.S. special operations commander who later became a professor at the National Defence University, confirmed to Al Jazeera that GAFE members “were given map reading courses, communications, standard special forces training, light to heavy weapons, machine guns and automatic weapons.”

Separately, the Foreign Policy Research Institute documented that “foreign specialists, including Americans, French, and Israelis, instructed members of this elite unit in rapid deployment, aerial assaults, marksmanship, ambushes, intelligence collection, counter-surveillance techniques, prisoner rescues, sophisticated communications, and the art of intimidation.” When these soldiers defected to the Gulf Cartel beginning in 1997 to form Los Zetas, they carried this expertise directly into cartel operations, building what analysts described as a paramilitary-grade criminal organization. The cartel also recruited Guatemalan Kaibiles (special forces) and corrupt police officers, compounding the foundational foreign military training.

Following El Mencho’s death in February 2026, renewed scrutiny fell on whether the CJNG had tapped into similar foreign training pipelines. A TRT World investigation cited a former DEA agent who reportedly described hearing about Israeli nationals meeting with CJNG members to provide sniper training and tactical instruction, noting methods that appeared “more technically advanced than typical Mexican cartel tactics.”

Oh, those rabbis and synagogues and Schumer’s.

Democratic leadership slow-walked the Iran war powers resolution long enough for Trump to start the war. Top Democrats support war with Iran – they just want Trump to be the one to absorb the political fallout

You violator of young girls

You honorless wretch

Jewish Values: Washington’s pro-Israel think tanks, like the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, are pumping out articles groveling over the prospect of controlling the nation’s oil.

Not only is the pro-regime change Venezuelan opposition allied with the Israeli Likud Party, but toppling the government in Caracas directly serves Israel’s regional agenda. This is why pro-Israeli commentators are adamant that the US military intervene and put American lives on the line.

I stand in solidarity with my Iranian friends and people for this fascist aggression they are enduring

The Israeli-American state terrorism must be condemned

The rhetoric of the liberal order, also endorsed in this tragic moment by #CarlBildt the liberal and emblem of progressives, by the European socialists, by the Trumpian right-wing, according to which even if it is a violation of international law it is directed against an “indefensible regime,” must not be tolerated, must be attacked, disproven.

We defend the law, diplomacy, the prevention of conflicts.

The demonization of Russia, of China, of Iran or of Venezuela and Cuba is yet another manipulation of the new fascism in power

The victims are silenced everywhere. In Gaza, in #Cisgiordania, in Iran, in #Cuba. A narrow elite acts outside the law and is untouchable

The #Epstein files are the tip of an iceberg. The violence is public and private.

They are ALL targets, these fucking psychotic WHITES:

Albanese’s backing of Israeli and US attacks on Iran shows that we are completely devoid of acting independently from Trump and Netanyahu.

There was a time when Labor pursued peace not war. That time is long gone.

Leadership needed not sycophantic capitulation to militarism.

For Gaddafi.
For Bashar Al-Assad.
For the Christians persecuted in the Holy Land.
For the Shiite Muslims persecuted in the Holy Land.
For Palestine.

This man today is the Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ali Khamenei. He puts his body on the line when he has to, and that’s what sets him apart from the Western pen-pushers. With a leadership capable of being in the trenches, a people becomes invincible; a grave, lamentable, and dangerous mistake by the West.

Circumcision at a post-adult age:

Translated from German

What hypocrisy! While Trump attacks Iran in the midst of ongoing negotiations, Merz, Macron, and#Starmer condemn the Iranian counterattacks but have not a word to say about the US bombardment that violates international law. Those who, like the Europeans, apply such double standards should not be surprised to find themselves playing no role internationally anymore and being seen merely as an appendage of US imperialism.

THEY ARE ALL TARGETS. Body bags are too good for these EuroTrashLandians!

Gulf countries are paying the price of betrayal..

This image is from Abu Dhabi..the home of the betrayal from which conspiracies emerged that destroyed Yemen, Sudan, and Libya..the home of money laundering, Colombian mercenaries, and hordes of American forces..this is Abu Dhabi after it was pounded by Iranian Armed Forces..and it’s not alone..but Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain too..these countries together had all the necessary resources..they have oil and gas and sovereign funds whose combined wealth is estimated at five trillion dollars, and they didn’t have to side with the Americans and the occupation entity..but they rented out their lands to wipe out a neighboring country..the height of baseness..

This is the first time the Gulf countries have been subjected to such massive targeting..Dubai alone has witnessed six massive explosions just minutes ago..Ali Al-Salem base in Kuwait and the Jafra area in Bahrain..and imagine that the Arabs came out to condemn Iran, even though it was from their lands that missiles launched to pound the Iranian President, the Supreme Leader, the IRGC commander, and the Defense Minister..Kuwait’s skies have truly turned into an operations theater..a missile overhead every five minutes..The UAE’s buildings were pounded..and the Qatari Al Udeid base, from which planes have long taken off to bomb Iraq and Afghanistan, was also struck by Sejjil and Khorramshahr missiles..The countries built on suspicious wealth and money piled up on the shoulders of millions of laborers who get less than a quarter of what they deserve are receiving their punishment..and this is the least of what they deserve..

Try feeling what 51 Iranian children felt when they met their end in a girls’ school..Experience the meaning of the fear now striking the hearts of millions of Iranians, who have done nothing wrong in the world except that American and Zionist evil heads refuse to let them possess their weapons..Know, even if just once, the meaning of stagnation and recession, you who helped the Americans besiege a neighboring country for fifteen years, depriving it of oil revenues and pushing 80% of its people below the poverty line..

Betrayal after betrayal, we’ve paid the price for them over decades..and I hope you pay the price for them at the hands of the Iranians..Trillions you didn’t use to build armies that make you independent and free..Millions of barrels of oil daily, and you didn’t create science or build a civilization..We’ve seen nothing from you but betrayal..and now your flaming skies bear witness to the first of its prices..For the first time, you’re being struck by missiles all together, just as you betrayed your brothers all together..You wish Iran would be erased because if it survives, God willing, your thrones won’t survive after its steadfastness..And with God’s help, the Islamic Republic will triumph..and you will perish.

The brakes on his cab will be going out soon, thanks to Jews.

Congratulations, MAGA. This is what happens when you elect a compromised, degenerate fucking pedophile, not once, but twice as your President. Your soldiers will die fighting a war on behalf of Israel, and none of you lifted a finger to stop it.

Good job, fucknuts,

Denmark officially bans all Israeli tourists from entering the country.

Anyone following the conflict from the start will find that Iranian technology has evolved significantly, and the targeting has become astonishingly precise—something I don’t think even the Americans and Zionists anticipated. The image shows an American AN/FPS-132 radar in Bahrain, costing over a billion dollars, completely destroyed by an Iranian drone right in the middle.

I don’t claim that Iran can withstand a raging torrent of American weaponry and international support, but what I admire is that dignity doesn’t keep score of power and doesn’t care for an arrogant, insolent braggart hiding behind Western hubris. We strike first with equal measure, then ask about the results afterward. O God, Arab dignity like Iranian dignity.

“We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world. A nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts.” – Hunter S. Thompson

Here we are, the fucking trash of the world:

While Russia and Pakistan issued direct condemnations, China expressed concern, and European leaders urged restraint, Western allies such as Australia signaled support for the US-Israeli war.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also voiced support for the strikes, citing Iran’s military cooperation with Russia.

And it’s hard not to conclude that a vast portion of British military activity is focused not so much on keeping the British people safe, but on defending big oil.

Ya gotta give it to the Mossd and Unit 8200 and…………….

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) recently underwent a major technological reorganization, consolidating and forming several high-level divisions to lead their cyber and artificial intelligence (AI) operations. These units are primarily housed within the C4I and Cyber Defense Directorate and the Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman).

C4I and Cyber Defense Directorate

This directorate is responsible for building and operating the IDF’s digital, multi-domain, and strategic capabilities.

Information and Artificial Intelligence Division (Bina): Formed in late 2024, this division (Hebrew for “intelligence”) consolidates nearly all existing AI units under a single command. It includes:
- Mamram: The Center of Computing and Information Systems.
- Shahar: The unit responsible for data science and software development.
- Matzpen: A software unit focused on operational systems.
- AI Center of Excellence: A hub for advanced algorithmic research.
- Software and Information School: The training arm for these technical roles.
Cyber Defense Division: Led by a Brigadier General, this division is responsible for protecting IDF networks and maintaining cyber resilience.
Spectrum and Communications Division: A new division created to manage the electromagnetic spectrum and strategic communications, including satellite and space-based networking.
Digital Transformation Division: Formed in 2019 to integrate civilian tech innovation into military infrastructure.
AIDF (Artificial Intelligence Reserve Unit): A specialized reserve unit that recruits experts from Israel’s high-tech industry to assist in military decision-making.

AI has enabled the Israeli regime’s genocidal logic to be carried out with machine-driven efficiency—reducing Palestinians, their families, and their homes to what the military chillingly calls ‘garbage targets’

Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman)

Aman manages the “collection” and analysis of intelligence through several elite technical units.

Unit 8200: Israel’s primary signal intelligence (SIGINT) and cyber warfare unit, often compared to the U.S. NSA. It has been instrumental in developing AI-powered target recommendation systems like Lavender and The Gospel.
Unit 81: A secretive technological unit that develops advanced hardware and software for special operations.
Unit 9900: Focused on visual intelligence (VISINT), utilizing satellites and mapping technologies often enhanced by AI for terrain analysis.
Unit 504: The human intelligence (HUMINT) unit, which increasingly uses digital tools to manage field data.

Specialized & Joint Units

Unit 888 (Refaim): A multi-dimensional unit that integrates AI and advanced sensors directly into combat operations.
Cyber Innovation Unit: Focuses on developing new cyber tools in collaboration with the private sector.
Center for Consciousness Operations: A unit within the Operations Directorate that manages psychological warfare and information operations.

Last year, Meta, Apple, and other big tech platforms began mass removing content and apps related to ICE. They deleted Facebook groups whose members criticized ICE agents, and forced the removal of apps from the app store that allowed citizens to report ICE in their neighborhood. Overall, it’s becoming harder and harder to criticize ICE online.

The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), is suing the government to fight back against these efforts. Today, Colin McDonnell, an attorney at FIRE joins me to break down FIRE’s lawsuit representing a Chicago-based Facebook group owner and an anti-ICE app founder against the government.

DOJ and DHS officials, including Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem, successfully pressured Apple and Facebook to remove an ICE-tracking app and a Chicago-based Facebook group with nearly 100,000 members. Colin breaks down why FIRE is suing the government , whether recording law enforcement in public is protected speech or dangerous “doxing,” the threats of a secret ICE protester database, and more!!

Oh, the lies, the worthless polls and Jewish poles up our asses.

GALLUP POLL: Forty-one percent of Americans now say they sympathize more with the Palestinians in the Middle East situation, while 36% sympathize more with the Israelis. The five-percentage-point difference is not statistically significant, but it contrasts with a clear lead for the Israelis only a year ago (46% vs. 33%) and larger leads over the prior 24 years.¹

Petro-Glyphosate Masculinity:

Stephanie Seneff PhD Interview – Glyphosate & The Engineered Sick Care System

Joining me once again is Stephanie Seneff PhD, here today to discuss Donald Trump’s recent Executive Order regarding glyphosate. Stephanie is an expert on the topic of glyphosate and has been on the cutting edge of its research for well over a decade. Today we discuss the many and varied dangers that this chemical poses, the illusion of higher crop yiel…

Have you heard the term ‘Cancer Microbiome’?

That’s the mechanism for Roundup-induced cancer, including via tryptophan metabolism.

Glyphosate’s ominous mechanism of action is putting a monkey wrench into a weed’s ability to synthesize aromatic amino acids, most famously tryptophan.

This kills the plant.

Thwarted is the shikimate pathway, and may be considered one of the biggest “oops moments” in scientific history.

Monsanto and regulators were in complete disregard of gut microbial production of aromatic amino acids including tryptophan. It wasn’t known how crucial our microbiota are to health.

“Glyphosate may have an impact on half of the species in the core human gut microbiome.”

‘Classification of the glyphosate target enzyme (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) for assessing sensitivity of organisms to the herbicide’ (2021)

“Our findings show for the first time that glyphosate-mediated perturbation of the bee gut microbiota, especially the effects on Snodgrassella abundance, is dose dependent and that a similar pattern of perturbation occurs regardless of the age of the bee and duration of exposure.”

“Colonization by Snodgrassella and other species able to synthesize all amino acids may foster the establishment of Lactobacillus species from Firm-4 and Firm-5 clades, which cannot synthesize some essential amino acids (19). Thus, inhibition of the shikimate pathway may deplete essential nutrients required by the hindgut community as a whole, culminating in bacterial death.”

Indeed, the globe is suffering a Lactobacillus crisis, key players of tryptophan metabolism via AhR activation. We now have dying diabetic bees suffering dementia.

But this Jew stain is the news: What The Paramount-Warner Bros. Merger Means For Larry Ellison’s Fortune

By Forbes estimates, the elder Ellison, who is also Oracle’s largest shareholder, doesn’t have enough cash on hand to fulfill his part of Paramount’s $111 billion offer for Warner Bros. Discovery. Here’s how it could play out.

[Paramount CEO David Ellison arrives with Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., before President Donald Trump delivers the State of the Union in the House chamber at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2026.]

Centuries-old wells restored to provide drinking water as parts of the country head towards “day zero” when no water will be available.

Aloud cheer and sounds of clapping reverberated around Bansilalpet, a neighbourhood in Hyderabad, when the first trickle of clean water dribbled out of the ground. After an 18-month effort to clear out 3,000 tonnes of rubbish and restore the stone walls and adjacent area, the 17th-century Bansilalpet stepwell had become a source of clean drinking water for the first time in four decades.

“It was such a joyous moment to see water collecting into the stepwell after clearing 40 years of garbage,” says Hajira Adeeb, a 45-year-old resident of Bansilalpet, who grew up seeing the well become transformed from the community’s water source to a dumping ground. “I visit almost every day. The area is clean and lit up in the evenings. I enjoy sitting there.”

India is famed for its stepwells – multi-storey structures built to provide access to groundwater, with steps and platforms descending to the water level. Thousands were built across the country near natural aquifers – underground porous rock saturated with water – mostly between the 11th and 18th centuries

Jew Power, Zeldin:

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) moved to fire 22 more of its staffers, a union representing agency employees said Thursday.

Justin Chen, president of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) Council 238, which represents EPA staff, said that the agency issued reduction in force (RIF) notices to 22 people who work on “environmental justice,” meaning they tackle pollution in overburdened or underserved communities.

“AFGE Council 238 is outraged by the EPA’s decision to issue RIF notices to 22 environmental justice employees whose work ensures that communities disproportionately burdened by environmental hazards receive the protections they are entitled to,” Chen said in a written statement.

“The gutting of our workforce, which has already been reduced by an estimated 30 percent, has stretched remaining staff to the breaking point and weakened our ability to respond to mounting environmental and public health threats. There is no justification for further cuts: funding levels have remained steady and these are needed, well qualified workers, and the agency should be strengthening our workforce, not shrinking it,” he added.

He urged the EPA to “immediately withdraw these notices.”

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on Feb. 26 announced the Pentagon will conditionally continue to provide support to Scouting America following the youth organization’s “commitment to pull all diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives from its program.”

In a video, Hegseth said he had been weighing ending “all support” of Scouting America, the nonprofit formerly called the Boy Scouts of America, after “DEI crept in.”

Scouting America has signed a memorandum of understanding stating that it will comply with an executive order from President Donald Trump that aimed to bar DEI efforts in the public and private sectors, Hegseth said.

Changes include the removal of DEI-focused language from Scouting America’s programs and publications, and the elimination of a “citizenship in society” merit badge that required Scouts to “realize the benefits of diversity, equity, inclusion and ethical leadership.” A new military service merit badge will be introduced, according to the Pentagon.

May be a black-and-white image of child and text that says '4 CHILDREN FOR SALE INQUIRE WITHIN'

Inside the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas, the only detention facility in the United States for immigrant families, children have been having their crayons, colored pencils, and drawings confiscated by guards.

Former detainees, lawyers, and advocates describe a pattern of escalating restrictions that began in late January, after children inside Dilley started writing letters and drawing pictures about their experiences.

The crackdown intensified. Former detainees describe room searches carried out by eight to ten guards at a time. Drawings were taken off walls. Art supplies were placed in plastic bags and removed. One mother described watching through a window as guards swept her children’s room, taking colored pencils the family had purchased themselves at the commissary.

After the search, she said, the children just “cried and cried and cried.”

Among the letters that made it out: “I’m writing this letter so that you can hear my story. I need you to help us. I cry a lot. I want to get out of here and go back to my school.” That was written by a 7-year-old.

One woman, detained for four months with her 13-year-old son, smuggled the letters out by hiding them inside her jacket on cool days. She walked out of Dilley carrying 34 pages of drawings and letters. Stick figures behind wire fences. A pet cat named Willi. Faces, mostly frowning.

And Sawant on this show . . . Bad/Good FAITH?

**The USS Gerald R. Ford is not parked near Iran. It is parked off Israel. And nobody is asking the only question that matters: why.

The $13.3 billion crown jewel of the US Navy, the largest warship ever constructed, just positioned itself off Haifa. Not in the Arabian Sea where the Lincoln sits 850 kilometers from Iranian shores loaded for offensive operations. Not in the Gulf where strike range is optimal. Off Israel. Defending Israel.

This is not redundancy. This is architecture.

Two carriers. Two missions. Two entirely different strategic functions. The Lincoln is the sword, positioned to launch strike packages into Iranian airspace within hours of an order. The Ford is the shield, its Aegis missile defense systems creating an umbrella over Israeli population centers against the retaliation that follows the first Tomahawk.

America just split its carrier doctrine into offense and defense simultaneously. That has not happened since the Pacific theater in 1945.

But the positioning reveals something deeper than tactics. When Iran retaliates, and every wargame says Iran retaliates, its missiles and drones fly toward Israel. They will fly through the same airspace where a US carrier strike group is now stationed. Every Iranian missile aimed at Tel Aviv or Haifa must traverse the Ford’s defensive envelope. Shooting at Israel means shooting at, around, and through an American carrier group.

Iran cannot retaliate against Israel without engaging American naval assets. The Ford’s position makes that physically impossible. The carrier is not defending Israel as a favor. It is positioned so that any Iranian response to American strikes automatically becomes an attack on American forces, triggering the full unrestrained weight of US military response without a single additional political decision required.

This is escalation insurance written in steel and seawater. If the campaign goes longer than planned, if munitions run thin in 7 to 10 days, if allies hesitate, the Ford’s position ensures that Iranian retaliation does the political work Washington cannot do alone: it transforms a limited American strike into an act of self-defense that no ally can refuse to support.

You do not park a $13.3 billion carrier where the enemy’s return fire will hit it unless you want the enemy’s return fire to hit it.

The Ford is not there to prevent escalation. The Ford is there to guarantee that if escalation comes, it comes on terms that make American restraint politically impossible and allied participation politically unavoidable.

Do not be confused by these Substacks — mine or anyone else’s. I am ranting, scrolling through the Syphillitic “news” and sometimes just cutting and pasting (with a whole lotta cool images) just to find my own proof of life.

Funny thing is, I am almost 100 percent RIGHT, 100 percent of the time, that is, for me, that is, and alas, if you see rant and antisemitism as somehow part and parcel of the undertones here or in any of these Substacks, then, well, look at yourself in the fucking mirror . . . then you need to fucking go to Palestine, to Tel Aviv, or NYC, and talk to Jews, man, rabbis or another other type.

Elitist, supremacist, transactional, patronizing, domineering, unfeeling, soulless? This might not be right for you, but it is for ME.

Do you see the hasbara and reverse ju jitsu here? The “Two Minutes Hate” in George Orwell’s 1984 is a daily, mandatory ritual where Party members watch propaganda films of Emmanuel Goldstein and enemy soldiers, prompting frenzied shouting and rage. It serves to unify citizens through fear, divert frustration away from the Party, and reinforce loyalty to Big Brother.

You haven’t seen this from Jews in New York (Jew York) City, or with cunts like Lindsey Graham or Huckabee? NO?

It was a Klan meeting with the Semen Drip Pedophile and Rapist Trump. Pure fucking Klan meeting:

Oh those ACLU Jews:

Yesterday, the American Civil Liberties Union of Eastern Missouri filed a federal lawsuit against the City of Cape Girardeau on behalf of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (TAK). TAK members had planned to place handbills on the windshields of parked cars on Sept. 28, until they discovered this is considered a crime by the City of Cape Girardeau.

“Our clients describe themselves as “a White Patriotic Christian organization’ that ‘believes in the preservation of the White race and the United States Constitution as it was originally written’,” says Tony Rothert, legal director of the ACLU-EM. “They’ve found that distributing leaflets is an effective way to recruit new members.”

“Defending the rights of groups that the government tries to censor because of their viewpoints is at the heart of what the First Amendment and the ACLU stand for, even when the viewpoints are not popular,” says Brenda L. Jones, executive director of the ACLU-EM. “If we don’t protect the free speech rights of all, we risk having the government arbitrarily decide what is, or is not, acceptable speech.”

In 1977 the American Civil Liberties Union defended the “right” of neo-nazis to intimidate Holocaust survivors in Skokie, IL. In response, the community established the Illinois Holocaust musuem & education center.

Russ brings in this psychosis of looking at the wall. He looked at the fucking Carter-Ford-Reagan-Clinuton, Bush BUSH Trump Obama TRUMP wall.

“Wall disease” (Mauerkrankheit) was a 1970s diagnosis for severe psychological distress—including psychosis, depression, and rage—experienced by East Berliners living immediately adjacent to the Berlin Wall. Psychiatrist Dietfried Müller-Hegemann observed that the forced isolation, confinement, and constant surveillance caused patients to exhibit paranoia, delusions of persecution, and suicidal tendencies.

The Epstein files reveal not only sexual crimes but also a tightly interconnected social world where capital, prestige, influence and dependency circulate freely.

The idea of the “Epstein class” can make this social structure visible, but it also risks personalizing the problem, reducing it to the story of a single manipulative individual. This carries a significant analytical risk: it obscures the deeper structural dynamics of class power. The Epstein case is not about an unusual individual; it is about the normalization of a social order where extreme wealth and male dominance are closely linked.

A book cover in green and taupe tones. — The author’s book on the uber-wealthy. (Lux Publisher)

In my book La société de provocation: essai sur l’obscénité des riches (The Society of Provocation: An Essay on the Obscenity of the Rich), I argue that this social order is anchored in a long-lasting alliance between economic and political elites, whose interests converge around the preservation of their privileges.

This alliance manifests in an economy of excess and overabundance — the so-called “wealthporn” or “pornopulence” — created for the ostentatious enjoyment of a small, protected elite. The Epstein case is only the tip of the iceberg. It reveals a global system that treats bodies, land and resources as things to exploit and discard for profit.

Now now, here it is — Jews are LIARS, period. Look at this fucking headline: Education Ministry to cancel school if Iran attacks, transition later to remote learning

Knesset members raised concerns about the pedagogical effectiveness of distance learning and the fact that many students lack reliable access to computers at home.

The patient: A 64-year-old woman in New South Wales, Australia

The symptoms: The woman was admitted to the hospital after experiencing abdominal pain and diarrhea for three weeks. She also had a persistent dry cough and night sweats.

A CT scan of her lungs showed opaque areas where the tissue had thickened, likely due to inflammation or an infection that caused the air spaces in the lungs to fill with fluid, pus or a buildup of white blood cells. The woman also had lesions, or areas of damaged tissue, in her liver and spleen.

A red, parasitic worm turned out to be behind the woman’s wide array of symptoms.

Now now now, you do not think DARPA and Plum Island and the bioweapons labs in Ukraine and Georgia and elsewhere, especially Tel Aviv, are not working on this worm to weaponize it for hmm Africa, China?

So, the news is on the Klan Meeting with the State of the Confederacy with Trump, and we have this?

Severe winter storms in California have crippled Tuolumne County’s primary water supply, leaving tens of thousands of residents at risk of running out of drinking water if timely repairs aren’t made.

The Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s (PG&E) Main Tuolumne Canal—responsible for supplying 95 percent of the Tuolumne Utilities District’s (TUD) drinking water—sustained catastrophic damage after more than 200 trees collapsed onto the 14‑mile system, destroying multiple wooden flumes and forcing officials to halt the canal’s flow. The damage occurred during a series of significant winter storms that lashed the Golden State earlier this month, dumping as much as 8 feet of snow in some high-elevation areas.

Oh, it is a Cunt-Tree: Maduro’s lawyer says US is blocking Venezuela government from paying deposed leader’s drug defense.

The Trump administration is blocking Venezuela’s government from paying for the cost of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro’s defense against drug trafficking charges in New York, a move that potentially interferes with his constitutional right to counsel, his lawyer says.

Attorney Barry Pollack told a Manhattan federal judge in an email last week that the U.S. Treasury Department had blocked the authorization of legal fees that the government of Venezuela is required to pay for Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores under its law and custom. The email was entered into the public court record on Wednesday.

Maduro and his wife have been jailed in New York without bail since they were seized from their Venezuelan home Jan. 3 in a stealth nighttime raid by U.S. military forces. They have both pleaded not guilty.

The stunning capture following a monthslong military buildup in the Caribbean has paved the way for the Trump administration to assert enormous influence over Maduro’s replacement, his vice president and now acting President Delcy Rodriguez. Under pressure from the U.S., Rodriguez has moved swiftly to open up Venezuela’s oil industry to American investment, free political prisoners and reestablish direct communications with Washington — something unseen since the first Trump administration shuttered the U.S. embassy in Caracas in 2019.

More fucking ant=people: Anthropic rejects Pentagon terms for lethal use of its chatbot Claude

CEO Dario Amodei said Anthropic could not permit its technology to be applied to domestic mass surveillance or fully autonomous weapons.

The Pentagon says it has never considered autonomous weapons or mass surveillance in the scope of its use of artificial intelligence, but it has not been willing to prohibit them in its contract with Anthropic. (Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post)

Anthropic said late Thursday that it will not concede to the Pentagon’s ultimatum for full access to its artificial intelligence tool Claude, saying it cannot loosen its restrictions against use in fully autonomous weapons or mass domestic surveillance. Anthropic’s announcement comes hours before a Pentagon-imposed Friday deadline to comply — setting the stage for the AI firm to either win a last-minute concession by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth or face the possibility of being cut from future military work.

Petromasculinity: Petro-masculinity, coined by Dr. Cara Daggett in 2018, describes the close link between fossil fuel consumption, climate change denial, and the reinforcement of patriarchal gender roles. It posits that fossil fuel use (e.g., driving large trucks) is used as a symbolic, sometimes violent, assertion of masculine power and identity, often in response to perceived threats to traditional gender hierarchies.

A North Dakota judge has said he will order Greenpeace to pay damages expected to total $345m in connection with protests against the Dakota Access oil pipeline from nearly a decade ago, a figure the environmental group contends it cannot pay.

In court papers filed on Tuesday, Judge James Gion said he would sign an order requiring several Greenpeace entities to pay the judgment to pipeline company Energy Transfer. He set that amount at $345m last year in a decision that reduced a jury’s damages by about half, but his latest filing did not specify a final amount.

The long-awaited order is expected to launch an appeal process in the North Dakota supreme court from both sides.

people protest at a construction site, one person holding a sign saying 'you can't eat money' — Greenpeace verdict is ‘weaponization of legal system’, advocacy groups say

Last year, a nine-person jury found Netherlands-based Greenpeace International, Greenpeace USA and funding arm Greenpeace Fund Inc liable for defamation and other claims brought by Dallas-based Energy Transfer and subsidiary Dakota Access.

The jury found Greenpeace USA liable on all counts, including conspiracy, trespass, nuisance and tortious interference. The other two entities were found liable for some of the claims.

The lawsuit stems from the pipeline protests in 2016 and 2017, when thousands of people demonstrated and camped near the project’s Missouri River crossing upstream of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s reservation. The tribe has long opposed the pipeline as a threat to its water supply.

Zero fucking battery engineers and AI cunts and Military Madmen and BUsiness Men, all of them, have zero respect for real science: Forests are great and all, but in one way, they don’t come close to the raw power of peatlands. Sprawling in the Arctic and elsewhere, like tropical regions, these soils are loaded with plant matter that’s resisting decay, turning into ultra-concentrated carbon. Though they comprise just 3 percent of Earth’s area, peatlands store 600 billion metric tons of the stuff — more than all the planet’s forests combined — making them critical tools for preventing even more global warming.

On the face of it, then, we might welcome the findings of a new study that shows these carbon sinks are indeed expanding in the Arctic, as scientists have suspected. The region is warming four times faster than the rest of the planet, encouraging the growth of plants, just as precipitation up there is also increasing, creating waterlogged conditions that slow decomposition. But the carbon stored in all that new vegetation could still one day return to the atmosphere as a sort of carbon burp, and the degradation of peatlands threatens to release loads of planet-warming gas sooner than that.

Just as the Arctic and boreal regions are warming, extreme heat is periodically drying them out. That’s driving massive wildfires that are chewing through shrubs and trees, but also burning up dried peat. These extraordinarily persistent fires smolder for weeks or even months, releasing carbon all the while. They’re so relentless, in fact, that they’ll burn underground as snow covers them through the winter, only to pop up again in the spring. Hence their nickname “zombie fires.”

We’ve got an elemental tug of war, then: As the far north rapidly and radically changes, how much carbon will these expanding peatlands sequester in the Earth, but how quickly will that carbon return to the atmosphere if these new peatlands dry out and catch fire? Only time — and scientists traipsing through the Arctic — will tell.

Nazis: Germany’s coalition government has been accused of abandoning its climate targets after agreeing to scrap parts of a contentious heating law mandating the use of renewables in favour of a draft law allowing homeowners to rely on fossil fuels.

While the previous law required most newly installed heating systems to use at least 65% renewable energy, often with a heat pump, the amended legislation will allow households to keep using oil and gas.

It also removes a mandate for expert consultation when installing a new heating system.

The previous legislation, drawn up by the Greens and passed in 2023, was seen as one of the party’s boldest policy goals in the previous centre-left-led government under Olaf Scholz.

More fucking ant torture for MAGA maggots:

In a rare meeting amid a partial government shutdown affecting her agency, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem met with Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., on Wednesday afternoon as the Chicago congresswoman pushed for a shift in tactics from immigration agents, according to Ramirez’s office.

Federal immigration authorities arrested a Columbia University student early Thursday, triggering protests on campus and allegations that agents gained entry to the university-owned residence by posing as police officers searching for a missing child.

Just hours after detaining student Ellie Aghayeva, though, the federal government abruptly reversed course, permitting her to walk free after an apparent intervention by President Donald Trump.

In a social media post Thursday afternoon, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he expressed concerns about the arrest during an unrelated meeting with Trump, who then agreed to release her immediately.

“I am safe and okay,” Aghayeva wrote on Instagram, minutes after Mamdani’s post, adding she was in “complete shock” from the experience.

All MAGA, man, this sort of treatment the Aussie got?

A QUEENSLAND man was locked in an Esky [ice box] and had honey poured on his genitals to attract ants before he died, a Brisbane court has heard.

The remains of Shaun Barker, 33, were found in Toolara State Forest near Gympie five months after he was allegedly tortured for days in December 2013.

Police have charged Matthew Leslie Armitage, 23, his 46-year-old father Stephen John Armitage and William Francis Dean, 38 — all of whom who had a drug connection to Mr Barker — with murder, torture, deprivation of liberty and interfering with a corpse.

Police believe the motive for the murder was drug-related and it has emerged the key witness in the murder case was high on ice when the alleged crime occurred.

This photo is the PERFECT definition of a “narco government”:

Elite gringo soldiers guarding the poppy fields in Afghanistan in 2012, right at the peak of opioid production backed by the puppet government of Hamid Karzai, installed by Washington.

Karzai was a CIA agent, like all the big drug traffickers, and under his government (that is, during the occupation) Afghanistan produced more heroin than the entire planet could consume.

54 years ago, in February 1972, the imperialist U.S. army assaulted the village of Bac Lieu, searching for members of the Vietnamese resistance.

In the village they found Nguyen Thi Tu, wife of a Vietnamese leader; they tortured her but she refused to reveal her husband’s whereabouts, so the Yankee genocidaires decided to shoot her and mutilate her ears.

Nguyen nursed her 10-month-old baby for the last time and then the Yankees shot her in the back; this photo was captured just before she was executed.

This is the true face of the USA, the imperialist genocidaires who portray themselves as saviors in their Hollywood movies.

On January 12, 1962, the U.S. military began its 11-year chemical warfare campaign against the people of Vietnam and Laos, dropping 19 million gallons harmful Chemicals on 20% of both countries, poisoning more than 3 million people n causing over 1 million birth defects.

JAPAN?

When the Japanese Army passed through the gates of Nanking in December 1937, the world did not hear gunshots: it heard a city scream.

For about six weeks, the then capital of China became a place where humanity collapsed.

Soldiers flooded the streets like a tide of steel, and what came after was not just war…
but something much darker.

In a matter of days, thousands of civilians were forcibly gathered.

Many men were taken to the riverbanks, lined up and executed, until the bodies piled up.

Others were systematically killed in groups so large that the horror seemed endless.

And the slaughter did not stop.

The cruelty did not pause.

And for the women—for mothers, daughters, sisters—the nightmare had no words strong enough to contain it.

It is estimated that between 20,000 and 80,000 women and girls were raped.

Many were tortured.

Many were killed afterward.

Entire families vanished in minutes.

Homes looted, businesses destroyed, entire neighborhoods burned.

When the smoke cleared, between 200,000 and 300,000 lives had been extinguished.

This was not a battle.

It was brutality, unleashed on a scale the world could scarcely comprehend.

For decades, the Nanking Massacre—the so-called Rape of Nanking—was shrouded in a painful silence.

Some denied it.

Others tried to erase it.

But the survivors remembered everything:
the faces.
the flames.
the footsteps in the night.
the families that never returned.

Today, the massacre is recognized as one of the most horrific atrocities of the 20th century: a wound that still aches in China’s memory, and a shadow that still strains its relationship with Japan.

But remembering is not just history.

It is a warning.

Because what happened in Nanking was not inevitable.

It was the result of power without restraint.
of violence without check.
of hatred without limit.

And when those forces go unanswered,
entire cities can vanish.

The Nanking Massacre is more than a chapter in a book.

It is a plea written in blood:
let us not forget what human beings are capable of…
so that it may never happen again.

MAGA MAGA MAGA: KKK lynches Union Army vet who started school for Black students in NC.

#OnThisDay

In 1870, Wyatt Outlaw, a Union veteran and the first Black town commissioner of Graham, North Carolina, was seized from his home and lynched by members of the Ku Klux Klan known as the White Brotherhood, which controlled the county.

Outlaw served as president of the Alamance County Union League of America, which opposed the White Brotherhood and had advocated establishing a school for Black students — something Klansmen had vowed to burn down.

When the Klan tried to terrorize the town’s Black citizens, Outlaw and two other Black constables opened fire on the hooded men. Sometime later, more than 60 hooded Klansmen invaded his home with torches, swords and pistols. They beat down Outlaw’s door with axes.

When his 73-year-old mother confronted them, they knocked her down and kicked and stomped her. As the mob dragged Outlaw away, his 6-year-old son screamed, “Oh, Daddy! Oh, Daddy!”

The Klansmen walked Outlaw bare-chested and barefoot to the Alamance County Courthouse, where they lynched him and placed a note on his chest: “Beware! Ye guilty parties — both white and black.”

Eighteen Klansmen were indicted for Outlaw’s murder, but charges were later dropped. Other Klan violence led to other deaths and injuries. Outlaw’s lynching, followed by the assassination of state Sen. John W. Stephens at the Caswell County Courthouse, prompted Gov. William Woods Holden to declare martial law in the area. As a result of his stand, the governor was impeached.

Decades later, in 1914, officials gathered to commemorate a new Confederate monument. Jacob Long, a longtime lawmaker, praised “the achievements of the great and good of our own race and blood” just steps from where he and other Klansmen reportedly lynched Outlaw. The monument still stands.

There is no monument to honor Outlaw. A play telling his story debuted in nearby Burlington in 2016.

1870: KKK lynched Wyatt Outlaw in North Carolina

Nah, the Western Mind is one fucking maze of walled-in repression, walled-in humanity, walled-in empathy, walled-in being with earth, walled-in love:

Sure enough, in 1990, another East German psychotherapist named Hans Joachim Maaz described the “emotional liberation” felt on the November night the Wall finally fell. Thousands of jubilant Germans climbed the Wall, wept, and embraced each other atop the concrete, and proceeded to tear the Wall down with joyful abandon. “The wall’s fall was the emotional climax of the unloading, the cathartic breaking-through of the unconscious,” Maaz wrote. “The emotional blockage unclogged, the repressed came to the surface, and the parts that had been split apart, united.”

The ‘Berlin strain’ of the Wall disease may have been cured 25 years ago, but as I describe in Walls: Travels Along the Barricades, wall-disease remains a global pandemic. I witnessed the sufferers of the disease in Palestine, Cyprus, Belfast, and along the US-Mexico border. Our contemporary walls and barriers continue to inflict psychic pain on those who live in their shadows. They still await their own emotional liberation and cathartic breaking through. As we celebrate the anniversary of Berlin’s cure, let us also remember those who remain afflicted.

Endless and Endless lecturing.

Sorry, Jews:

Ignoring laws, too, in the context of a declining empire and economy, only exacerbates uncertainties. They will produce policy failures and reversals in 2026 similar to those the Trump regime suffered in 2025. Already well underway, the decline sweeps away the few obstacles still in its path. Its economic, political, and cultural power already reduced, a desperate US turns on its erstwhile allies, semi-colonies, and remaining trading partners seeking tribute to offset its decline. Only its global military power seems still formidable. Yet there too, the Russian-Chinese alliance and its BRICS allies are catching up quickly.

Not sure which Netflix flick Richard Wolff is watching: The Jewish American Empire is expanding, morphing, transitioning…

Elizabeth Warren came onto social media to feed her dumb liberal followers this pleasant-sounding cliché about “No war with Iran,” then, a couple of hours later, gave Trump a standing ovation during the most militant part of his speech about war with Iran. Classic Democrat.

Never forget Warren’s standing ovation for Trump when he said “America will never be a socialist country” in 2019.

Fleas dream of buying themselves a dog, and nobodies dream of escaping poverty: that one magical day good luck will suddenly rain down on them–will rain down in buckets. But good luck doesn’t rain down yesterday, today, tomorrow, or ever. Good luck doesn’t even fall in a fine drizzle, no matter how hard the nobodies summon it, even if their left hand is tickling, or if they begin the new day with their right foot, or start the new year with a change of brooms.

The nobodies: nobody’s children, owners of nothing. The nobodies: the no ones, the nobodied, running like rabbits, dying through life, screwed every which way.

Who are not, but could be.
Who don’t speak languages, but dialects.
Who don’t have religions, but superstitions.
Who don’t create art, but handicrafts.
Who don’t have culture, but folklore.
Who are not human beings, but human resources.
Who do not have faces, but arms.
Who do not have names, but numbers.
Who do not appear in the history of the world, but in the police blotter of the local paper.

There they go again, trying to out militarize Trump.

Today, the Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) announced its endorsement of Rep. Abigail Spanberger for Governor of Virginia. This endorsement follows JDCA’s successful efforts to mobilize voters in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race earlier this month.

Rep. Abigail Spanberger, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Virginia, responded:

“At a time when we are seeing a rise in hate – and violence – directed at our Jewish neighbors across our Commonwealth and the United States, we must continue to stand with and defend Jewish communities to combat hatred and antisemitism in all forms. As governor, I will always work to ensure that Virginia is a place where all families can feel safe and thrive,” said Spanberger. “I’m grateful for the Jewish Democratic Council of America’s work to combat antisemitism, defend Virginians’ civil liberties, and protect our democracy. I am thankful to have their support to serve as the next Governor of Virginia.”

JDCA CEO Halie Soifer said the following:

“We are thrilled to endorse Abigail Spanberger to be the next Governor of Virginia. JDCA previously endorsed Congresswoman Spanberger three times in her House elections because she is a champion for the issues of importance to Jewish voters. As governor, she will stand up for working families, defend democracy, fight against antisemitism and extremism, and make Virginia safer for Jews and all Virginians. The Jewish vote can shape the outcome of this election, and we plan to mobilize voters to elect Rep. Spanberger this November.

“This race will be among the most important of 2025, and we see Americans increasingly rejecting Donald Trump and Republicans’ attacks on our democracy, freedoms, rights, and economic opportunities. From the next six months, JDCA will engage Jewish voters across Virginia in support of Abigail Spanberger to ensure she wins in November.”

If 53 purposely deleted pages of Epstein files alleging Trump physically & sexually abused a 13-year-old aren’t enough for his immediate resignation, I don’t know what is.

Archaeologists in the Holy Land just uncovered a 3,000-year-old Israelite tablet…

It reads: “Iran is only weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon.”

The Mexican Defense Minister, General Ricardo Trevilla Trejo, stated that 80% of the 23,000 weapons seized from criminal cartels during the current government’s term in power came from the USA, and the remaining 20% came from Israel.

On Tuesday evening, Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind, seriously ill Rohingya refugee from Burma who does not speak English, was found dead in Buffalo—five days after Border Patrol dropped him off on a street corner without notifying his family, who had moved away from the area. He was 56.

The story of Shah Alam’s arrest in February of last year, as reported by the Investigative Post, reads as a situation all too familiar for disabled people who interact with the police—particularly disabled people of color. His original violent arrest, by police who apparently saw his walking stick as a weapon—and who, like the Border Patrol officers who dumped him, apparently made no attempt to reckon with his disability, his inability to speak English, or his mental state—set off a chain of events that ended in his death.

In need of a walking stick, he managed to find his way down the block to a shop that sold curtain rods, where he purchased one. Curtain rod in hand, Shah Alam strolled his Black Rock neighborhood until the weather turned colder, [his attorney Benjamin] Macaluso said. He attempted to walk home, but, confused, ended up at a stranger’s house instead.

He found himself on a woman’s porch just as she was letting her dog out, Macaluso said.

“He comes from a place where people don’t keep dogs,” Macaluso said. “The dog’s freaking out. He’s freaking out. She calls the police and says there’s an unidentified Black man in my driveway.”

When Buffalo police arrived, Macaluso said, they ordered him to drop his curtain rod. But Shah Alam was not able to understand them—or even see them clearly. After not complying with repeated orders, the two officers Tasered him, tackled and beat him, Macaluso said.

Jonah Kaplan hung a large Israeli flag from his cubicle in the Minnesota CBS office, CHABAD Broadcasting System. Come on, RIchard.

Yeah, well, NO, Richard, Trump and Jewish Minyan are going strong.

Lastly, there are the self-inflicted wounds of mass disaffection. The ICEcapades in Minneapolis strengthened animosity toward Trump’s government around the immigration issue and how to deal with it. Trump’s transparent efforts to keep the public from knowing the full extent of his (and his friends’ and colleagues’) involvement with Jeffrey Epstein’s horrors are crumpling support. Least recognized but perhaps most important is the growing awareness among all employees – but especially at all government levels – that Trump’s policies threaten jobs. Their unions are striking, and the total US unionized labor force grew by 500,000 in 2025. When several unions joined the people of Minneapolis in organizing effective, mass opposition to ICE, a coalition undertook a renewal that can change US politics.

I.c.e. scream series

Marka27’s I.C.E. Scream series is a visual protest turning something as familiar as a paleta into a powerful symbol of systemic oppression. At first glance, the brightly colored frozen treats evoke nostalgia, but a closer look reveals a chilling reality. Made from resin as well as acrylic, these paletas contain etched images and encapsulated objects ranging from handcuffs to flowers and rosaries—celebrating the strength and resilience of indigenous communities while representing the struggles of immigrant families caught in the U.S. immigration system.

The series plays on the contrast between childhood innocence and the brutality of detention, deportation, and family separation. The name I.C.E. Scream itself is a haunting wordplay—what should be a moment of joy instead becomes a cry of anguish. Each piece captures the tension between the American Dream’s promise and the harsh realities many immigrants face.

Marka27 draws from his heritage and lived experiences, using his signature “Neo Indigenous” style to highlight stories often silenced. I.C.E. Scream isn’t just art—it’s a call to action, forcing viewers to confront the human cost of immigration policies, compelling its audience to question, to feel, and ultimately, engage in the fight for justice. Through vibrant hues and subversive storytelling, Marka27 transforms the act of looking into an act of witnessing. In a time when immigrant voices are often silenced, I.C.E. Scream ensures they are not just heard, but felt.

Nope, Richard, things are NOT looking up:

“Ni De Aquí, Ni De Allá” invokes the color-saturated textiles, architecture and food of Mexico and Mexican American communities in the U.S. And the exhibit, which was scheduled to open in the CVAD Gallery this month, explores Mexican and Mexican American identity and expression.

Quiñonez’s art looks at the culture and community that is at once braided through the fabric of North America but trapped politically in a kind of no-man’s-land. He drenches paleta carts in gold, repurposing them as nichos mexicanos, or shadow boxes that contain religious and cultural icons — a Virgen de Guadalupe framed with gilded calla lilies, a whisper from Diego Rivera’s famous Cargador de Flores. The exhibit recreates a bodega shelf full of multi-colored novena candles, a nod to historical Catholicism and colonization as well as the religious bonds that connect both immigrant and Latinos in America.

Some of the work is a pointed criticism of ICE, which has provoked protests all over the country since the Trump administration’s pointed increase in deportations and immigration enforcement. After several high-profile killings of protesters in Minneapolis, criticism of U.S. immigration policy and anger at ICE officers and the Trump administration surged.

Quiñonez created giant, melting paletas — confrontational pieces that contain handcuffs or revolvers, like a fossilized dragonfly suspended in amber. Another piece brings the hustle of immigrant street food vendors into plain view — a clear paleta cart shaded by an umbrella printed with quiet American flags. Happy tassels are on the cart’s handle. But the broad side that patrons can see? It’s emblazoned with a message: “I.C.E. SCREAM.”

The front of the cart has an official seal, but this one reads “U.S. Department of Stolen Land Security.” Inside the shield on this seal? A masked face.

The exhibit also included art inspired by Marka27’s murals — brown-skinned people surrounded by a riot of color.

Quiñonez said the gallery was open to the public, and he thinks that a few people saw the exhibit for the short time that it was open.

The removal of the exhibit comes nearly one year after Republican state lawmakers demanded the college remove a student exhibit. Critics and some Jewish students said the show, in which two student artists, who were Muslim women, explored the war in Gaza and the fate of Palestinians. University officials didn’t remove the show, but at least one piece was removed from the gallery.

The removal of the work appears to violate the university’s policy governing art exhibits.

The university policy states: “Decisions regarding works of art exhibited in UNT facilities shall be consistent with the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the State of Texas Constitution, the principles of academic freedom and academic responsibility, and applicable UNT System Regents Rules, UNT System Regulations, and campus policies.”

The policy says that art doesn’t infringe on the constitutional rights of the viewer “solely because a viewer is offended by the idea or opinion portrayed in a work of art.” However, the policy doesn’t protect art that “is likely to incite or produce imminent lawless action,” or uses “fighting words” or is obscene.

Quiñonez is also currently listed as the juror of the Paul Voertman Juried Student Exhibition last fall, a long-running and esteemed annual student exhibit at UNT. That exhibit is running through the end of the month in the Cora Stafford Gallery.

A Klan Meeting in the White Man’s House as the Penguins on the Other Side of the Aisle Clap Clap Clap

the definition of clap — minds so soaked through with VD (or JD, soon) that they quack like a fascist and act like a democrat and do ovation after ovation while the Grand Wizard Shits in their brains

Remember this anniversary!

May be an image of ‎text that says '‎AARON BUSHNELL 1999-2024 "I will be no longer complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it is not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal. Free Palestine. Free Palestine. Free Palestine." PALESTINIAN MOVEMENT حرجة الشياب افسباي لقلصطيني‎'‎

Can we get back to the olden days? Little is said about all the women who died in the Civil War fighting for freedom. Just one of them had more courage and love for Spain than five fascists of today put together.

May they not be forgotten!

THese poor swine are going to market to be tortured and used for bacon soaked beer and triple Whoopers.

But they have more humanity in their curly tail than: who is running the Klan Conference!

Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, was ejected from President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night — the second straight year he has been removed from the House chamber while Trump addressed Congress.

[Do you see all his fellow democrats encircling him, his advocates, fighting against his removal? Nah, me neither.]

Green was seen on the House floor waving a sign that read “Black People Aren’t Apes.” The gesture was an apparent reference to a video Trump posted on social media this month that depicted former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama as apes.

Elizabeth Warren applauds Trump’s comment during the State of the Union

Oh no, the autopsy of the speech?

It wasn’t a State of the Union address, not really. It was a fascist rally peppered with flop-sweat one-liners, ring-led by a man who often sounded bored by his own teleprompted script. The energy was through the floor, yes. And there was so much implicit begging for the American people not to hate him as much as they do that the elderly grandpa in a bright red tie standing on Capitol Hill might as well have been President Gil Gunderson, if that ‘Simpsons’ character were also an adulterous Falangist.

But the onrush of pathetic begging and Trump’s soporific rhythm risked masking a graver truth: This was the most openly racist State of the Union in modern history, where President Trump spent protracted portions of the nationally televised address spewing his hatred of Somali Americans with all the dignity and panache of banned 4chan content. It was also the longest State of the Union address ever – and certainly one of the worst – and Republicans’ constant agreement and laughing along with Trump came across like the sound of one hand clapping.

A group of people, many in light-colored clothing, smile while posing closely together. One person wears a white jacket with hand-drawn text.

Our country is winning again. In fact, we’re winning so much that we really don’t know what to do about it. People are asking me: “please, please, please Mr President, we’re winning too much, we can’t take it anymore! We’re not used to winning in our country, until you came along we were just always losing, but now we’re winning too much.” And I say no, no, no, you’re going to win again. You’re going to win big, you’re going to win bigger than ever.

This is it? Costume party?

The message might be different, but the color was once again white for some Democratic women in the House on Tuesday night.

Nearly a decade after they first wore white to President’s Trump address to a joint session of Congress in 2017, a clutch of Democratic congresswomen donned the same color for the president’s State of the Union address, while dozens of other Democrats boycotted the event.

In 2017, the choice of white was made to support women’s rights, an echo of suffragists. This time around, it was meant, in part, to signal opposition to the SAVE America Act, a strict voter identification bill that would mandate proof of citizenship from people when they register to vote.

Critics of the bill, which has passed the Republican-led House, say such a law could disenfranchise millions of voters, including women whose married names don’t match their passports or birth certificates.

Richard T. Ford, the author of “Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Made History,” said that “although it’s always useful to make any collective show of opposition,” such symbolism can become “less effective when used repeatedly.”

“Unless,” he added, “it is meant to convey the same objection.”

That same objection, of course, could be to the president himself, who has a long and well-documented history of disparaging remarks toward women.

The chair of the Democratic Women’s Caucus, Representative Teresa Leger Fernández, a New Mexico Democrat, told CBS News that the color choice for the State of the Union address “depends on where we’re at in the moment.”

On Tuesday, however, Ms. Fernández — who wore white to an event for survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse — didn’t attend to see the display from her caucus at the president’s address. She, like many other Democrats, said she’d be skipping it altogether.

DO you feel like your life is empty because you missed the elementary school student elections?

It is still possible to cross the aisle in America. Together with Rep ThomasMassie at the State of the Union for justice for Epstein survivors and no war in Iran.

This is it?

Donald Trump’s spiritual leader, Robert Morris, was sentenced to only six months in prison for sexually abusing a 12 year old girl.

This is what “justice” looks like when you’re connected to power,

Forget about these worthless Substacks: Fact Check: Trump’s State of the Union Narrative vs Proven Reality

They have zero idea about ground-truthing. Gasoline is $3.39 here, in Oregon, and inflation is 300 percent on many many many items. Services. Plus, you have to start any fucking story with:

“Rapist and Pedophile in Chief Trump, with his Minyan in the shadows, and not so much in the shadows deat 130 Jewish Billionaires and millions of Jewish millionaires, is both a 3rd grade debater (sic) and serial criminal, that to write about his on-the-stage mental drag show is like giving Sam, that Sam, two hours on CBS.”

[Berkowitz’s biological father was Joseph Kleinman, a married businessman who, like Berkowitz’s mother, was Jewish.]

A comprehensive review of Donald Trump’s longest-ever address exposes a pattern of exaggeration, fabricated claims, and recycled propaganda—particularly on Iran, Gaza, and the US economy.

Whores, one and all.

Did you know that Melania Trump knew John Casablancas, Jean Luc Brunel, Joseph Mifsud, and Paolo Zampolli for years before she formally met Trump. Epstein also slept with her a year before Trump did. There is not enough attention on Melania’s complicity. There is so much more.
