Since the unprovoked Israeli attack on Iran, there has been speculation in the West on if, or on how, the Russians and Chinese might intervene. Unlike the idiot Trump, they keep their intentions and strategies a secret. ...Until they do what they need to do. www.youtube.com/live/I82QO-g...

Today's must-hear interview. Col. Larry Wilkerson tells us what he really thinks about the Trumpanyahu administration, and the fall of America's empire. www.youtube.com/live/yiYieN3...

To the surprise of absolutely no one.... [Sarcasm] "Why Israel's attacks are backfiring as Iranians rally around the flag. "Tel Aviv's belligerent approach is stoking widespread nationalism, even among those who oppose the regime in Tehran." www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/isra...

"Donald Trump’s actions with respect to Israel and Iran date to decisions made by the permanent government of the US in the 1990s – early 2000s... "Should Trump use nukes in Iran, no human will get a good night’s sleep for the remainder of human existence." www.nakedcapitalism.com/2025/06/rob-...

Is Trump ill? I ask, not because I have sympathy for him, but because in Alberta, he seemed less concerned about Israel's attack on Iran, than about his own urge to attack Democratic cities in the USA. Come on, man, focus on this global disaster! Your own personal mess back home can wait.

Remember: as Israel's Tinfoil Dome falls apart in tatters, Trump wants to waste billions and billions of dollars on a Tinfoil Dome of his own.

Jeffrey D. Sachs: "Stop Netanyahu Before He Gets Us All Killed. "We could soon see several nuclear powers pitted against each other and dragging the world closer to nuclear annihilation." www.commondreams.org/opinion/neta...

A good analysis of how Israelis have dug themselves into a tight box, and of how stupid Trump would be to leap in. The Russians, the Chinese, and now, the Iranians, have learned that American diplomacy cannot be trusted, and this awareness will spread. www.youtube.com/live/Bsm7aMD...

As pretty much everyone foresaw, Israel is losing this fight; Trump is under pressure to sacrifice Americans for the cause of Israel's genocide and war. Yet Trump is also under pressure to back away. Here's a look at the people and forces that tug at him. www.nakedcapitalism.com/2025/06/does...

The way things are going Israel could invade Australia today and the first thing the govt will say is Israel has a right to defend itself. The next thing they’ll say is that they urge restraint but abstain in a UN vote on the call for a ceasefire.

More than 100,000 demonstrators from across the Netherlands rallied for the second time in the past month, wearing red and marching through The Hague to symbolically create a line they say the Dutch government has failed to draw to halt Israel’s bombardment of Gaza.

"Israel’s war with Iran is proving far less decisive than President Trump initially believed. What now appears to be an escalating, inconclusive conflict with no clear end in sight will force Trump into a challenging decision: end the war -- or enter it." responsiblestatecraft.org/israel-iran-...

The Israelis obviously knew that Iran would use hypersonic missiles, so why did they attack Iran in the first place? Did they expect Donald Trump to intervene on Day One? Talk about trust!

"Israelis do not understand... that they are the reason bombs are falling now. As long as they fall on innocent Palestinians, that's fine with them (82% of them anyway), but when they start falling on them it's an entirely different matter." www.youtube.com/live/0oGP6bj...

The "No Kings" protests were a good start, but more is needed, because Trump is likely to drag the American people into Israel's war -- yet another war the United States cannot win, and in which innocent Americans will die. Where is the anger...?

All of these "No Kings" rally photos remind me that there is indeed life in America. Stay alive!

The people supporting ICE and the current police state are the same people who would have supported or looked the other way from what Hitler did as he pushed his agenda. Humans can always acclimate to a new normal, especially if it doesn't directly affect them, and it shows.

This "information" reveals a few kinks in your moral compass. Anyone who might use it to justify an unprovoked attack on Iran today would most likely seek to justify the starvation and slaughter of Gazan children because they are "Hamas." No wonder you disabled comments.

As the West falls apart, I repeat to myself this message from Orson Welles every day, but I cannot accept this affirmation of life merely for the sake of life right now, for the sake of life this minute. And so I replay this clip, again. youtu.be/p67d9F9nW2Y?...

In part, yes: it is Biden's fault. Biden could have stopped the genocide in Gaza, the attack on Beirut, and this current assault on Iran, just as Trump could right now, by blocking weapon sales and political support to Israel. In that sense, Biden and Trump might as well be the same president.

Now, now, let's be fair: perhaps they mistook Senator Padilla for an anti-genocide university student.

Don't be distracted: this conflict is not about immigration. This conflict is about the radical increase of presidential powers during a time of imperial decay and social collapse. Trump is dangerous, but the conditions that gave rise to Trump will be fatal for America. youtu.be/DD_Spb_o2m8?...

Well, uh... look on the bright side. Trump is less likely to invade Iran, now that he's preparing to attack the United States.

Spineless grovellers in Europe and the UK! "UK and France abandon plans to recognise Palestinian state at conference. "Diplomats say the conference's aims downgraded to establishing a pathway to recognition." www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-and-...

And all of this to defend a genocide...! "Professors Express Outrage Over UMich's Use of Investigators to Surveil Gaza Student Protestors. "'My university has no business doing this,'" wrote one professor at the University of Michigan Law School." www.commondreams.org/news/michiga...

Don't be distracted by a Musktrumpet fight. While Gazans are slaughtered, the proxy war against Russia continues, anti-genocide protestors are punished, Americans lose their freedoms, the neocons of the USA, the UK, and Europe pant for World War Three, we have no time for celebrity media circuses.

The issue, here, is not a matter of definition, but of complicit and cowardly governments. We must make them pay for their crimes against humanity. "'I Call it Genocide Because IT IS Genocide' Says UN Palestine Expert Francesca Albanese. www.commondreams.org/news/frances...

If we had any respect at all for teaching and for learning, we would ban AI from our schools, colleges, and universities. But we don't care: we're morons, and we are determined to create a new generation of morons. www.404media.co/teachers-are...

"The [GOP Bill] provision would force those challenging Trump 'to pay up in the form of a posted bond -- something many people can't afford to do. That means only the wealthy will be able to even attempt to challenge the most powerful man in the country.'" www.commondreams.org/news/trump-b...

"Gaza Freedom Flotilla Begins Voyage to Break Israel's Illegal Blockade. "The ship is a symbol of the unyielding spirit of Palestinian resilience and the growing global resistance to Israel's use of collective punishment and deliberate starvation policies." www.commondreams.org/opinion/gaza...

Remember Lysenko? You will. Oh, you will! "Trump’s new ‘gold standard’ rule will destroy American science as we know it. "The new executive order allows political appointees to undermine research they oppose, paving the way for state-controlled science." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The Democrats do exactly what they're paid to do: nothing! "The extraordinary national crisis Trump has created is made even more severe by Democratic leaders, including top congressional lawmakers and DNC brass, who refuse to acknowledge its magnitude." www.commondreams.org/opinion/dnc-...

How does Bluesky resemble the Trump administration? Here's how: "Bluesky urged to review punitive policies towards Palestine content. "Social media users say Gaza accounts and pro-Palestinian voices are disproportionately censored by the platform." www.middleeasteye.net/trending/blu...

Sorry if this is antisemitic but I think it’s wrong to burn children alive.

Israel's claim that 'Hamas is stealing aid' is patently a lie. My latest article explains why: jonathancook.substack.com/p/israels-cl...

Must protect genocide at all costs, even if that means wrecking the American economy: "Trump Administration Orders Pause on All New Student Visa Interviews. "...The administration plans to expand social media vetting for all noncitizen student applicants." www.commondreams.org/news/us-visa...

Why are we such cowards? Why are we so paralytically spineless? At the very least, we could stand up and say NO to genocide. To his credit, and for a long time, now, Dr Gabor Mate has been one of the people who stands up and speaks out. Please hear him. youtu.be/hLPYt9UuSdQ?...

staging a show-and-tell about a fake genocide during a real genocide to the government that has done the most to seek justice for that real genocide is designed to break our brains. They know what they are doing. www.cnn.com/2025/05/21/w...

After all, given that Israelis are happy to kill women, children, doctors, aid workers, and reporters, then why NOT kill diplomats? "Outrage After Israeli Occupation Forces Shoot Live Rounds at Foreign Diplomats in West Bank." www.commondreams.org/news/israel-...

"Oh, Mr Hitler, please allow food into the death camps!" Talk talk talk talk talk. Until we cut off all trade with Israel, expel ambassadors, hit Israelis with sanctions, and threaten to send in troops, we haven't done a goddamned thing to help the Palestinians. Our "leaders" are cowards.
