Pretty sure if Iran had attacked Israel without warning or justification, our media wouldn't present it calmly and reasonably as a "preemptive strike."
Israel just bombed Iran. The same Israel that's been on trial for genocide. The same Israel that's been bombing Lebanon. The same Israel that's been stealing land in the West Bank. At what point does the world call this what it is: a rogue state?
They illegally bomb another country without any justification, for the second year running, and then they put out videos as if they’re the innocent victims. Beyond parody.
Journalist Mehdi Hasan wrote an open letter to LeBron James, who praised Israel:
❝You have built a reputation, perhaps even a brand, on the idea that silence is complicity.
You made that clear in 2017 when you loudly condemned far-right violence in Charlottesville and dismissed Donald Trump as “the so-called president.” You made that clear in 2020 when you boldly wore your support for Black Lives Matter on your chest, as you took the knee with your teammates. You made that clear in 2022 when you passionately denounced the overturning of Roe v. Wade and said it was all about “power and control.”
You were right. Silence is complicity.
So where has your voice been for the past two and a half years as tens of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza have been bombed, shot, and starved to death? As parents dug their children’s bodies out of the rubble with their bare hands? As doctors operated without anesthesia inside besieged hospitals?
Why have we heard nothing from you?
In fact, worse than nothing. This past weekend, we heard praise from you for the very same country that has been doing the mass killing and starving in Gaza. “Hopefully someday I can make it over there,” you said, referring to the state of Israel. “Like I said, I’ve never been over there, but I’ve heard nothing but great things.”
'Nothing but great things'... about Israel? Seriously?❞
The principal of Roedean has resigned, under pressure, no doubt. This is how dissent is crushed by the Zionist lobby, by making people afraid to criticise Israel’s violence. Israel is a State, not a person.
We must be able to speak out without intimidation.
Nothing says "board of peace" like having two founding members not show up to the signing ceremony because they would be arrested at the airport for war crimes.
Charles cuts the corner and gains an advantage no investigation… Verstappen hits Hamilton no investigation… Hamilton does something - immediate investigation. OK LOL.
Pearl clutching and outrage at Glastonbury performers.
Silence over this barbarism.
This is where we are.
We have the receipts.
There will be a reckoning.
