John Mearsheimer is asked if he believes Hamas are pure evil irrational spawns from hell whose attack on October 7th was motivated by anti-Semitism. He responds: That's absurd Israeli propaganda, they did it to resist the occupation and brutal treatment of Palestinians
Israel invoked the Hannibal Directive, killing Israeli citizens on Oct 7 rather than allow them to be taken hostage and exchanged for Palestinian hostages. That makes Israel directly implicated in what Raskin calls “the deadliest mass attack on Jews since the Holocaust.”
Israel has additional complicity in the fact that Oct 7 would never have happened had Israel not placed Gaza’s two million Palestinians in what amounts to the largest concentration camp since the Holocaust.
THIS IS THE ONE MEMORY THAT WILL LIVE WITH ME FOREVER…
The soul of my soul… 💔💔💔
How can we ever forget Uncle Khaled and Reem…
HOW HE OPENED HIS GRANDDAUGHTER’S EYES AND KISSED HER.
Israel killed him as well.
The difference between Oct. 7 for Palestinians & Israelis ….
For Israelis, it was a once-in-a-lifetime day of horror.
For Palestinians, its not one day, it’s 24-7-365 horror and terror that quite literally never ends.
And there it is.
The Epstein files are so bad and he won’t go after all his enemies he always said he would go after because he knows they will all come after him for so much worse.
This is a public plea deal.
🚨This story has quite an update.
Turns out cops lied and there was no unconscious person in the roadway. The updated story is here:
Name: Persephone Berger
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Race: White
Date: 10/03/2026
Location: 5300 block of Davis Crossing Road
City: Unincorporated St. Francois County
County: St. Francois
State: Missouri
Agency: St. Francois County Sheriff’s Department
Officer(s): Not Disclosed
Cause of Death: Vehicle
Event: Pedestrian killed by sheriff’s deputy’s vehicle
On 10/03/2026, at approximately 3:43 a.m., 16-year-old Persephone Berger was struck and killed by a St. Francois County sheriff’s deputy driving on Davis Crossing Road near her home. The Sheriff’s Department says deputies had been dispatched for a report of an unresponsive person lying in the roadway, that a caller was waiting nearby with hazard lights activated, and that the responding deputy did not see Berger before striking her. The deputy remained at the scene and notified a supervisor. Sheriff Jeffrey Crites has since confirmed that the deputy’s vehicle struck Berger and said the deputy was approximately 23 years old and had been with the department about three months.
Berger’s family disputes crucial parts of the Sheriff’s Department account. Her aunt, Kimberly Berger Cabuchola, said Persephone had slipped out of her home to attend a small gathering nearby and was walking home when she was killed. The family says an eyewitness who personally knew Persephone saw her walking normally along Davis Crossing Road only minutes before the collision and saw no vehicle stopped with hazard lights and no person attending to an unconscious girl.
According to the family’s account of the eyewitness statement, the witness was outside tending to dogs and saw a St. Francois County sheriff’s SUV traveling approximately 65 to 70 mph without emergency lights or sirens. The witness then heard an extremely loud impact, followed by the sound of tires screeching as the deputy stopped farther down the road. The witness reportedly saw the deputy get out and walk back toward the location of the impact. The witness did not call 911 because law enforcement was already at the scene and additional deputies subsequently arrived. The reported speed and the witness’s account that Berger was walking immediately before the collision have not yet been independently confirmed by investigators.
Cabuchola said deputies initially went to Persephone’s father, Jarrad Berger, and told him his daughter had been killed in a hit-and-run. The family consequently announced publicly on Saturday that Persephone had been the victim of a hit-and-run and sought information about the driver. First Alert 4 has now independently reported the family’s account that the Sheriff’s Department initially described the death to Berger’s father as a hit-and-run and that the family did not learn directly from the department that a deputy had struck her until Monday afternoon. Sheriff Crites told the station he was not present Saturday and could not say precisely what the family had been told. He said a hit-and-run had initially been considered possible, but the preliminary autopsy subsequently indicated that Berger had been struck only by the deputy’s vehicle.
The family says the eyewitness had already told them Saturday that a deputy struck Persephone, leaving them questioning why authorities had not disclosed the deputy’s involvement. Cabuchola said that after she publicly posted that the family had learned a deputy was responsible, the roadway was washed down before Missouri State Highway Patrol investigators examined the scene. The Leadwood Fire Protection District has independently confirmed that its personnel were initially dispatched at 3:44 a.m. but were told by a sheriff’s deputy that they could return to service without making contact with Berger. The fire district also confirmed that it returned later Saturday and washed down the roadway after a citizen requested assistance because of the condition of the road.
The Sheriff’s Department did not contact the Missouri State Highway Patrol about the circumstances of Berger’s death until Sunday. MSHP was subsequently asked to conduct an independent crash investigation and is performing crash reconstruction and interviewing witnesses. The Sheriff’s Department has no dashboard-camera video. Sheriff Crites said the deputy’s body camera was activated and has been turned over to MSHP.
A preliminary autopsy found no evidence of physical injuries predating the collision and found injuries consistent with Berger being struck by the deputy’s vehicle. Toxicology and the final autopsy remain pending. Sheriff Crites has said the deputy attempted to maneuver around Berger and that the collision was not connected to a vehicle pursuit. Berger’s family maintains that she had been walking home and was not lying unconscious in the roadway before the deputy struck her.

Dear GOP....Remember three months ago when you primaried the fuck out of Thomas Massie with Israeli money and then mocked us when he "lost?"
And now you expect us to show up for you in the midterms?
Politely go fuck yourselves.
You don’t get to burn the bridge and then demand we cross it.
Epstein survivor details her encounters with Donald Trump when she was just 13 years old...“He wanted me to wear a blonde wig because I reminded him of his daughter.”
No one tries this hard to suppress evidence that would exonerate him.
Release the Epstein files.
Hey @Grok
Confirm this if it matches the record. Be concise and no spin.
Israeli border lookouts watched Hamas rehearse October 7 for months. Training. Fence probes. Mock raids. They reported it up the chain. It was brushed off.
More than a year earlier, Israeli intelligence had Hamas’s “Jericho Wall” plan: a mass border breach, hits on communities and bases, hostage-taking. Some analysts said it was real. Senior officers filed it as fantasy.
Then it happened. Sirens at 6:29 a.m. In places like Nahal Oz, real reinforcements did not arrive for about six to seven hours. Locals and a handful of fighters held the line alone. A lot of people online called that delay a stand-down order. IDF and Shin Bet chiefs have rejected claims that anyone ordered the army to stand aside or helped the attack.
The official story is incompetence so complete it keeps getting mistaken for a plan.
Israel is using today as a propaganda opportunity, so it’s essential we set the record straight.
It’s undeniable that Netanyahu knew October 7 was coming. This has been confirmed by Israeli military probes, leaked intelligence, and reporting by outlets including The New York Times, Haaretz, The Times of Israel, The Guardian, the BBC, The Atlantic, and The Wall Street Journal.
Israeli military intelligence obtained a detailed Hamas blueprint codenamed “Jericho Wall”, over a year before the attack. It described breaching the border fence at multiple points, overrunning bases and communities, and taking hostages. Israeli leaks later confirmed that Israel had other versions of the plan circulating since 2018.
An Israeli officer in Unit 8200 wrote multiple assessments of Hamas drills on simulated IDF outposts. She noted that senior Hamas commanders were observing the drills, the plan was operational, and Israel will likely not get a long warning.
Israeli military intelligence sent Netanyahu several letters between March and July 2023, warning him of the dangers. On top of that, multiple foreign countries warned him—and Mr Security failed to act.
UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed warned Netanyahu in late September 2023 that Yahya Sinwar was planning a major operation. Netanyahu later tried to pressure the UAE into saying that no such warning had been given. Egyptian authorities warned Israel “something big was coming” just three days before the attack.
Despite these warnings, Israeli authorities ignored key signs of an attack on October 6 and 7, including the activation of sim cards and unusual rocket movements. No one raised the alert or attempted to raise security along the border. Military and intelligence chiefs have publicly accepted responsibility for the failure. Netanyahu has not.
Roughly half of the 1,500 troops assigned to the area were away on the morning. Despite this vulnerability, and the detailed warnings, the Nova Festival was not only allowed to go ahead, it was given a one-day extension. That extension made it run into October 7.
Officers in the Gaza Division had initially opposed the extension, due to the lack of security, and they were overruled. As a result, 364 festival goers were killed and dozens were abducted.
It took Israeli forces three and a half hours to respond and they were not directed to the worst hit areas. It took them nearly six hours to reach Nir Oz (after the attackers had already left), nearly six hours to reach Kfar Aza and Sufa, seven hours to reach Nahal Oz, and seven hours to reach Be’eri. Remember Israel is a small place.
When the troops finally arrived, they responded with the Hannibal Directive which involved using force to stop Israelis being taken hostage, even if it meant killing them. Huge numbers of buildings and vehicles were destroyed that day—something Hamas did not have the firepower to achieve.
Hannibal orders were given at multiple sites—the Erez crossing, Re’im base, the Gaza Division headquarters, and the Nahal Oz outpost. At 11:22am, a broader order went out on the division network: “Not a single vehicle can return to Gaza.” Units were later told to stop returns to Gaza “at all costs”.
A Southern Command source told Haaretz that everyone knew the vehicles could be carrying kidnapped civilians or soldiers, and could not tell who was inside. A house was destroyed by an Israeli tank, even though it contained 14 hostages. Most of them died.
On the evening of October 7, Qatar’s prime minister called the Mossad chief. He said Hamas was ready to release all civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the strip.
Israel rejected the offer and continued to refuse one hostage deal after another, much to the dismay of the families. This led to many avoidable hostage deaths which were caused by Israel’s own bombs.
For the longest time, we were told “release the hostages” and this all stops, but the moment the last hostage was freed, the genocide did not stop. The slogan changed from “release the hostages” to “fuck around and find out” because the violence was never about the hostages.
When Israel tells you that October 7 was an atrocity carried out by Hamas, it’s omitting that Netanyahu funnelled $1 billion to Hamas because he wanted this moment. He wanted the excuse to decimate Gaza and push ahead with the Greater Israel project. Zionists are now bragging about how October 7 accelerated their plans for Gaza by 20 years.
Netanyahu was willing to kill his own people on October 7 as pretext for a genocide. That’s not only terrorism, it’s treason, and it’s yet another reason this man belongs behind bars.
A few things I found while building the 2026 Midterm Candidate Due Diligence site.
Ken Paxton Jr. has raised over $87M from outside groups for this election, AIPAC looks to be buying MD candidates, and AI and Data Centers are buying Darline Graham. Jeff Yass and Miram Adelson lead the individual contributors with Elon Musk in the top 4. And nationally there is $1.75 billion in outside money this cycle.
It's getting messy in the Midterm streets. But you no longer have to be blind to who owns your candidate.
You can look each candidate up by state and district.
Link to the site is in my pinned post.
I hope you all are enjoying it!
If you really want to understand what America is, go to Vietnam once in your life, see the old amputees, visit the massacre sites, meet the people, and hear their stories. You'll come away understanding that America didn't lose it's way. Gaza, Cuba, Yemen, Libya, Sudan; that's all as American as queer-coded conservatism and it goes back just as far.
