“Seven Lies about Israel’s Attack on Iran: I was a US intelligence analyst. Trump and Netanyahu are lying to you.”

a 21 year old drove an SUV intentionally into a crowd of protesters at a No Kings rally in Virginia www.fox5dc.com/news/man-dri...

"Unvetted" is another word imported by the Far Right. As if they had been somehow "vetted." Worrying to hear a young black guy on The Nolan Show @5Live use it. He's from London but living in the north of Ireland and experiencing racism. No amount of "vetting" will satisfy the racists.

If you're taking selfies at a protest, you either aren't at an actual protest, or you're a massive liability. One of the most dangerous things that you can possibly do is post photos of yourself and others at a protest on social media.

Egypt's Crackdown on the Global March to Gaza Instead of receiving permission from Egyptian authorities to march to the Rafah border crossing, participants have been subject to hotel raids, harassment, arrests, and deportations open.substack.com/pub/dropsite...

Starting a war in order to divert political and diplomatic attention away from a genocide. Doesn't get much worse than this. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

..."fact that, on top of everything else - Palantir's NHS offer is just not very good does make one wonder about the source of Wes Streeting's enthusiasm for it. And why the hapless Keir Starmer was dragged along to endorse them by Peter Mandelson" - Jo Maugham open.substack.com/pub/democrac...

Israeli firing and airstrikes have killed at least 45 Palestinians across Gaza, many of them near an aid distribution site operated by the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, local health authorities have said.

US Christian Right, though antisemitic but big supporters of Genocide Israel, cheering on the attack on Iran and now killing elected Democratic Party representatives.

BREAKING: Suspect in shooting of Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota had a hit list with nearly 70 names, including abortion providers, pro-choice advocates and lawmakers - CNN

8 years later and not a single person has been put on trial for Grenfell, even though a report a year ago listed all the people involved, and what they did or didn't do. They don't want to convict them, because they are rich.

Israel has openly assassinated nuclear scientists. No trial, no evidence, no protest. Just names on a list, lives ended by missile. And the world cheers. If Iran had done this, it would be called terrorism. But empire makes murder look ok. #War #Iran #Politics

West Bank under siege as Gazan internet access is severed While the world is preoccupied with its war with Iran, Israel has surrounded the West Bank, and Gaza has lost access to communications ✍️ Jennie Kermode @kentandsurreybylines.co.uk

🚨The Minnesota shooter was an anti-abortion extremist who had a list of nearly 70 names including abortion providers, pro-choice advocates and lawmakers such as Tim Walz, Ilhan Omar, Tina Smith and Keith Ellison.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

BREAKING: Iran’s state TV is reporting that “heavy and destructive” retaliatory attacks by Iran against Israel are expected within hours. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/lmcup

The Netherlands just now ❤️❤️❤️🇵🇸 "If you're in the West Bank or Gaza in Iran or Syria or Lebanon and you see this...FREE FREE" This is what the world thinks - turn off your tv and news station it's all propaganda. The people want to stop the monstrous actions of Israel.

Today marks 8 years since the Grenfell Tower fire, when 72 people needlessly died because of corporate greed and deceit. Every year, I am moved by the resolve, kindness and humanity of the community. 8 years on, we are still fighting for justice.

If the Right attack, "self defence is no offence"..

"This was an act of targeted political violence," Gov. Tim Walz said. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The terrorist leader who has access to nuclear weapons hid in in tunnels then fled to a penthouse in Greece while he uses civilians as human shields and makes them suffer the violence of his religious extremism, bigotry, and racism.

BREAKING: Fires have broken out after Israel bombed infrastructure at the South Pars gas field in Iran's southern Bushehr province, report the semi-official news agency Mehr and other Iranian media outlets. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/8z2o3

A man impersonating a police officer assassinated a Democratic state legislator in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz said on Saturday, and killed the lawmaker’s husband. The assailant also shot and injured another Democratic lawmaker and his wife, officials said. nyti.ms/4jRTrvw

MINNESOTA: “Shelter in place order in a 3 mile radius… white male, black body armor…” The 2 Democratic lawmakers’ spouses were also shot.

Totally stable country. Dressed as a cop shooting politicians. Amazing.

Can someone show me where the UK Parliament was given a vote to go to war with Iran?

Iran is a theocracy. Israel is "the Jewish National state" (Netanyahu). What is the difference?

anyway, all this talk of south africa has reminded me of one of the greatest quotes in showbiz history

#OtD 14 Jun 1983 hundreds of thousands took to the streets in Chile demanding an end to the US-backed Pinochet dictatorship. Authorities arrested over 1000 people and shot 15, killing three, but the crackdown failed to stop working-class resistance stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8587...

Video shows a young man carrying his dead father on a bicycle after he was shot while trying to secure food parcels at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid site in Gaza. Israeli forces have killed more than 220 Palestinians at GHF aid distribution sites since they opened.

Israel's attacks on the Madleen aid mission to Gaza and the repression of the anti-deportation protests in Los Angeles represent the same imperial logic: any challenge to injustice will be met with state violence. mondoweiss.net/2025/06/figh...

Israel literally committed an act of war. A preemptive, unprovoked attack on a sovereign country is not the same as a retaliatory response to Zionist aggression. This is the equivalent of the US invading Iraq under a false pretext and trying to blame both sides.

You have got to be f**king kidding me
