Seasons they change while cold blood is raining
I have been waiting beyond the years
Now over the skyline I see you're travelling
Brothers from all time gathering here
Come let us build the ship of the future
In an ancient pattern that journeys far

قداستك هذا الصبي الذي جن فرحا" لاستقبالك في لبنان بقي تحت أنقاض غارة عين السلم ٣ أيام وانتشلت جثته اليوم.
هكذا يُقتل أبناء وطني 😪 تحت أنظار العالم الصامت

🇮🇷 These are Jews in Isfahan praying for peace.

Spread this.

Make it go Viral.

They practice Judaism, maintain synagogues, and live as a recognized minority with representation in parliament.

Jewish life existed beyond Israel for centuries.

130 years ago, Jews & Muslims exchanged gifts on Passover.

Jewish & Muslim kids played together in the same courtyards

Jews, Muslims & Christians lived & shopped together & merged their holidays together.

And then Zionism destroyed it all.

Hussein Saleh lost 8 members of his family in an Israeli strike on their home, including his pregnant wife.

He found the head of his young daughter amid the rubble. “When I picked up her head, everything changed. Something in my heart broke and went silent.”

It is one of the most heartbreaking stories @NadaOHomsi and I have worked on during the war.

Nothing could justify such a horrific attack.

Head of Iranian Jewish Community on Rubbles of Israeli-Hit Synagogue:

“Shameful” “All the Israeli regime’s claims about defending Jews are nothing more than a shameful lie,” said Rabbi Younes Hamami Lalehzar, calling Israel's attack on a synagogue in a residential area an “inhumane and terrorist” act.

In late Ottoman Palestine, Jews & Muslims used to exchange gifts on the last day of Passover this week.

Palestinian Muslims gifted their Jewish friends a round copper bowl, laden w/fresh bread, goats’ butter & honey.

Jews gifted back the same copper bowl w/matzot & home-made jam.

Thanks to Zionism, a majority of Jews in Israel (68%) refuse to live in the same building as a Muslim Palestinian (2006 poll. Today the % is likely much higher) let alone exchange gifts with them. https://t.co/yhfFNkUo45

This was a time before Zionism contaminated relations between Palestine's religious communities. https://t.co/Z3ApvIBBno

BREAKING:

Israel is wiping out entire civilian homes in the village of Taybeh in South Lebanon — a village that stood for over 7,000 years.

Not a battlefield.
Not a military base.

Homes.

An ancient village erased in real time.

Iranian musician Ali Ghamsari, a composer and Tar player, announced that starting today, he will stay at Damavand power plant responsible for providing half of Tehran’s electricity with his instrument for some time, creating music to help prevent attacks on Iran's infrastructure.

I have not seen a single mainstream media outlet give this the attention it deserves.

Israel blew up an entire Lebanese town, an ancient place. It should be headline news. There’s footage of it happening.

Imagine this was your town, and you saw every building blown up by a terrorist army to prevent you from ever returning. You would at the very least expect wall to wall coverage. Instead it passes without a word.

It’s not the only town Israel has blown up. And sadly it probably won’t be the last.

Something you will never hear from Jewish-Americans Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, who are poised to make millions off the suffering of Palestinians. Jewish-American actress Hannah Einbinder, condemning Netanyahu and Israel's actions in Gaza Strip. 😳�

In 1997, Julia Hill climbed a 200-foot 1000-year-old Californian redwood tree and did not come down for 738 days to prevent Pacific Lumber Company loggers from cutting it down.

The further expansion of the international DHL hub at Leipzig Airport is being challenged in the courts by local campaigners. We strongly support them as Leipzig residents already experience big noise from many freight flights at night.

For people saying Elon is trustworthy and USAID is bad, do you guys remember Elon's "we will coup whoever we want. deal with it" statement over the 2019 coup in Lithium-rich Bolivia that he was poised to benefit from?

Even if USAID is completely dismantled, that certainly does not mean that regime change ops will stop. Oligarchs can just fund them directly, they largely control the controversial NGOs that USAID funded anyway.

Sorry for "raining on the parade" but handing over major govt ops to intelligence and military-linked oligarchs is unlikely to be the "win" against the "deep state" you think it is. It is ultimately a deeper centralization of power and historically that doesn't end well.
