This guy was the singer of a pretty popular french indie band in the early 2000’s. Then he gave up music and moved to Taos, NM and now creates these insane paintings.
The $300B is a private investment fund and will, according to Reuters “not include any govt money or grants”. The $25B the US has given to Israel since 2023 to commit genocide is, however, from US govt coffers but mysteriously Klobuchar never talks about it in these terms. Odd!
Apologizing now for opposing Kamala Harris is a humiliation ritual. The Palestine movement spent the last election rejecting the duopoly and refusing to be bullied into lesser-evil politics. It’s sad to watch people abandon those principles the moment they decide they want a place within the system.

1. The United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran and their allies in the current war by signing this MoU, declare the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and undertake from now on not to initiate any war or any military operation against each other, and to refrain from the threat or use of force against each other, and ensuring the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Lebanon.

The United States of America further undertakes to remove its forces from the proximity of the Islamic Republic of Iran within 30 days after the final deal.

Figures like Saeed Ghasseminejad spent years at FDD and around Reza Pahlavi advocating sanctions and war. They pushed policies that made Iranians poorer and cheered a war that killed them. Yet when the economy improves, they're outraged. That tells you everything.
If sanctions are lifted, one benefit would be that Iran wouldn't be so dependent on China buying Iranian oil. Though Iran would still need China in modernising the economy.
Now how lucrative selling electricity to Iraq is. Iran can improve that by expanding existing production.
❤️🩹They found a nineteen-year-old woman still alive, half her body exposed and half pinned between two concrete slabs, her arm severed and her body torn by shrapnel, after the Civil Defense rushed to a house struck without warning and began digging. As they tried to free her and ease her pain, they asked her about herself, and she told them she was nineteen, that she had memorised parts of the Quran, that she had scored ninety percent in high school and was an outstanding university student. She kept reciting the Quran, praying and asking forgiveness, and then she died.
Even after she was gone, her ordeal shaped a decision no rescuer should ever have to make. Her body stayed trapped beneath the slabs, and the team chose to amputate the pinned part with a disc grinder to recover her, so that her remains would not be left for the stray dogs that had become a widespread sight, or crushed under advancing Israeli occupation bulldozers.

Iranian political scientist Foad Izadi said any deal signed with the US is useless as anything substantive, including lifting of sanctions, requires Congressional approval. Both Zionist Democrats and Republicans will block it, and then Trump will say "welp I tried but it's not my fault". This is now already being openly stated by both Democrats and Republicans.
