The media has been doing a bad job of covering Israel and America’s bombings of Iran…and the genocide in Gaza. Like, really bad. I know this because @smohyeddin.bsky.social is an award-winning Iranian-Canadian journalist, and she’s this week’s guest on Bubble Pop! Here’s a sneak peek:

"Gaza doesn't interest anyone anymore...It's become a place with its own set of rules. The loss of human life means nothing. It's not even an 'unfortunate incident,' like they used to say." www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

The amount of propaganda being levelled at Iranians right now is mindblowing. Even Benjamin Netanyahu’s wife Sara is getting in on the action.

Some people get into journalism because they’re skeptical of power, and others do so because they’re impressed by it. Moments like this are clarifying with respect to who’s who.

What Israel did to Iran was an unprovoked act of war and totally against international law. Iran has a right to defend itself.

Israeli sport psychologists have published a paper comparing the trauma experienced by ISRAELI athletes during the genocide to the experience of Covid. The focus of their 'intervention' is to mitigate "the impact of the current conflict on sports and athletes" in Israel. I kid you not.

It’s hard, at this point, to imagine a more egregious assertion coming from a journalist, than saying it’s hard to tell if there’s a humanitarian crisis in Gaza because “there are so few independent voices that exist within Gaza.”

The rebrand of the Conservatives as working class champions, which paid off in this election, was years in the making. In an excerpt from his new book, Martin Lukacs writes that it was a cynical but compelling charade—and took advantage of a vacuum left by the NDP. breachmedia.ca/how-pierre-p...

No fun city. Councillor (& former cop) is pushing a plan that Toronto dance communities worried & organizing. Never say the NDP isn’t as puritanical as any perceived “conservative.” (NDP has been running this guy for 25 years trying to get him in somewhere).

Absolutely terrifying. “Legal experts agree that sending American citizens to prison in El Salvador would be flagrantly illegal under both U.S. and international law — and that the idea itself is shockingly authoritarian, with few parallels in our nation’s history.”

They had gone to help rescue people and became victims of Israel themselves. Some still wearing their gloves & helmets. Israel killed 15 paramedics & a UN worker & buried them with bulldozers in a mass grave along with their trucks and ambulances. Read that again slowly.
