Hard to come to any other conclusion except that nuclear parity is a necessary component to counterbalancing the most irrational regional hegemon on the planet which has the backing of the most irrational world superpower. If you are Egypt, Turkey, Saudi, and yes Iran, you should get the bomb.

do you know how much more I'd trust a Honda rocket than an American one www.theverge.com/news/689183/...

"Not for you." Palestinian citizens of Israel--21% of the population--are being excluded from bomb shelters on the basis of their ethnicity. This is the society the West will defend at all costs. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/...

Israel bombs Isfahan, Iran's largest Jewish community. Is this still to keep Jews safe?

You can't trust Americans. I hope the world has learned that by now.

Never has it been clearer that “no one is free until Palestine is free” is not a chant but a warning, as we all stare into the abyss of another world war.

Commander of the IDF’s West Bank Division announces the continuation of the Israeli war on joy

Imagine colonizing a place in the Middle East where every family has to be provided with a bunker because of how reviled you are by your neighbors for your violent land theft...and then telling the world that your stolen State is the only safe place for Jews

"Palestinian citizens of Israel are at fault for having fewer bomb shelters in areas where they live than in Israeli Jewish communities, because they choose where to build, and it has nothing to do with the federal government of Israel" is a new one, I have to say.

I don’t think I’ve ever read two more infuriating sentences in my life.

What's incredible about the pro-Palestine mass awakening is that Zionists have done everything in their power to suppress it. *Every* major social media platform has been captured by Zionist interests and suppresses pro-Palestine speech, but the raw torrent of righteous anger defies censorship.

Another red line for Gaza on the way in The Hague 🖤🖤🖤🖤

A large group of Dutch legal experts is calling on Prime Minister Schoof of the Netherlands to hold Israel accountable for war crimes in Gaza. www.trouw.nl/binnenland/h...

“We’re in a very difficult situation because the hospital is overwhelmed. No ICU beds. Israeli army is very close. We cannot evacuate all the people that [are] here. So that’s it—civilians being mutilated by the Israeli army. Constantly. One after another.”

Photo from Israel last night showing IDF militants using tunnels under a hospital 👇🏻

There's a "let them have nukes" narrative that really says a lot. You don't "let" a foreign country you have no business in do anything. You either accept a nation is sovereign or you do not.

Each THAAD battery has 48 missiles, and each missile costs about $13 million. How many do you think America has fired to protect israel from the consequences of its actions in the past 24 hours?

Seen this going around but I’m Reposting it with the full alt text bc everyone deserves to read this glorious reply from Boy George

Footage documenting the massive destruction in Rishon LeZion, south of Tel Aviv following a missile barrage carried out by the Iranian armed forces this morning. Two settlers were killed and several others were wounded, including six sustaining critical injuries.

New revelations that spyware made by a U.S-backed Israeli company was used against at least three European journalists have raised concerns about abuse of commercial spyware even in democratic countries.

Genuinely inspired by this campaign ad. I almost wish I still lived in NYC so I could rank these two (and only these two!, don't rank Cuomo!).

BREAKING: Gaza’s Health Ministry warns Israel is trying to shut down Nasser Hospital The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza says Israel has notified residents near Nasser Medical Complex that the area is now an “evacuation and operations zone,” triggering panic among patients and civilians.

Gaza plunged into a complete internet blackout on Thursday after the last main fibre optic cable connecting the enclave was severed during Israeli bombardment.

Another day has passed, which means we have helped murder another several dozen starving people trying to get a morsel of food for themselves or their children.

Dozens of people are shot dead *every day* in "Gaza Humanitarian Fund" aid distribution centres. People desperate to feed their families, shot dead in the chaos and panic that inevitably surrounds these sites. Israel has created a real version of "the hunger games". 1/

Israel's security establishment has "been operating an armed militia in Gaza, whose personnel are affiliated with ISIS." When confronted with this information, Netanyahu responded: "What's wrong with that?" Pretty much says it all. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

I am deciding to take time off from my work as a family doctor, to join the global march to Gaza, because Gaza deserves it.
