It's easier to ask forgiveness than to get permission.

Since the Isfahan rescue, this war shifted from 3D geopolitical chess to high-stakes Texas Hold'em. Trump is about to go all-in without looking at all his cards. I think the bluffing comes next. 🧵

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Trump: “The mission involved 155 aircraft including 4 bombers, 64 fighters, 48 refueling tankers, 13 rescue aircraft and more.”

You don’t use this many aircraft for a “rescue” mission. This was a botched invasion to steal the uranium that Iran stopped. Americans are so gullible.

The level of complicity of the @BBC in the ethnic cleansing of southern Lebanon is shocking. I am listening to their Jerusalem correspondent report that the ‘IDF are striking Hezbollah targets’ while I’m on the ground in the middle of it watching men, women and children being killed on a daily basis. My colleagues are being executed. Paramedics are being systematically murdered. All of this is happening in plain sight and the BBC correspondent here in Lebanon knows it.

May you all be put on trial for your deadly propaganda when the time comes. Shame on all of you, especially those on the ground who are too cowardly to speak out.

Starmer is behaving like he won the lottery, not the election.

Every chance to answer greatness. Instead, common corruption over leadership.

No better than the politicians he promised to clean up.

The Greens are now a major force in a five party UK system – winning disillusioned Labour AND Tory voters by actually listening. That's the real story of a historic shift. But a big loser hack of a journalist, deliberately reduced it to a utterly pathetic gotcha moment instead.

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Ex labour govt minister & husband of the current foreign secretary tries to start his interview with @ZackPolanski with a gotcha

Except Zack points out "the story isn't true" & he adds "if the Daily Mail are unhappy, we're probably on the right track"

Excruciating (for Ed)

[Canada Hates Trump @AntiTrumpCanada]

FUN FACT: Trump has hated Seth Meyers ever since he got absolutely eviscerated by him at the 2011 Correspondents’ Dinner.

Assassination attempt got all the headlines but this is bigger: Kennedy-era jet slipped through "invincible" radar on day one of Iran's retaliation. Hegseth hid Gulf losses for months. Truth more embarrassing than getting your "Bible verses" from Tarantino

You'd think the Tories would hammer Labour on cost of living, economy, crime. Nope. She's too busy cheering proxy wars for Israel and Ukraine.

It speaks to the depths of human dignity, faith, and love for family. Even then, he thought of those who would have to find him, wanting to spare them some of the pain.
A reminder: behind every number is a person, a soul, a story, and a final act of grace.
#GazaGenocide‌

[Abdullah Omar🇵🇸 @Abdullah_Om3r03]

Today, the body of our neighbor was found buried and decomposed.
He had been wounded and left bleeding for three days during the last evacuation from northern Gaza.
When he realized he would not survive, and that no one could reach him, he made his final decision.
He covered himself with soil and buried himself while in prostration.
Now, his remains were found in that same position still in sujood.
His body was discovered beside a tree he chose as his final resting place.
He left a sign for his family… his ring tied above the soil with a thread, along with a small branch from the tree, so they could find him.
Even in his final moments, he thought of them.
Even in death, he left a message of dignity, faith, and farewell.
This is not just a story.
This is a life. A human being. A final act of strength in the face of unimaginable pain.

[Namir Alousi @NamiAlousi]

Good on you.

Anyone who knows #Lebanon knows this song. It is the most iconic Lebanese resistance song, memorized by every Lebanese and Arab, performed by the legendary singer Julia Butros.

Watch this video and see how the audience sings with passion and pride, shouting every word, from children to the elderly.

Lyrics 👇

We refuse to die; tell them we will remain.
Your land, your homes, and the people who keep struggling.

Everyone, O South of Lebanon, has sold you empty words,
Justice is crucified, bleeding out peace.

We will remain here, even if the whole world fades away.
Not a grain of your soil will ever be lost, O South.

Don’t be afraid, O South, of time’s betrayal,
Of the horrors of war, of the pain of deprivation.

After all that has happened, after all that has happened,
This home will always be ours, and the laurel trees will return,
Blooming with dignity across your land, O South.

UK Jewish MP: "Israel acting like Nazis in Gaza"

"Israel was born out of Jewish Terrorism - Tzipi Livni's Father was a Terrorist"
Astonishing claims in the House of Parliament. SIR Gerald Kaufman, the veteran Labour MP, compared the actions of Israeli troops in Gaza to the Nazis who forced his family to flee Poland.

During a Commons debate on the fighting in Gaza, he urged the government to impose an arms embargo on Israel.

Sir Gerald, who was brought up as an orthodox Jew and Zionist, said: "My grandmother was ill in bed when the Nazis came to her home town a German soldier shot her dead in her bed.

"My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza. The present Israeli government ruthlessly and cynically exploits the continuing guilt from gentiles over the slaughter of Jews in the Holocaust as justification for their murder of Palestinians."

He said the claim that many of the Palestinian victims were militants "was the reply of the Nazi" and added: "I suppose the Jews fighting for their lives in the Warsaw ghetto could have been dismissed as militants."

He accused the Israeli government of seeking "conquest" and added: "They are not simply war criminals, they are fools."

This was in 2009 when the truth could still be spoken in the UK Parliament

St George was born in Turkey and is the patron saint of Palestine

St George never visited England

St George represnts much of Europe, the middle east and Africa

If St George came here today, Reform UK would deport him

France 24 confirms a terrifying report from the Wall Street Journal. Donald Trump was intentionally locked out of the Situation Room during a critical military operation in Iran. He was in such a volatile state, screaming at aides, that top generals restricted his access.

⭕️ Robert Pape vs. the “Joe Kent Plan”: Is There a Third Way Out of the Iran Escalation Trap?

🔸Joe Kent, a former senior Trump administration official who resigned in protest over the Iran war, has proposed a third path absent a deal with Iran— walk away from active military escalation, keep sanctions in place, and let regional powers negotiate bilateral deals over Hormuz passage with Iran.

🔸Professor Robert Pape, a political scientist at the University of Chicago and author of the Escalation Trap Substack, says Kent’s plan doesn’t stop Iran from becoming the fourth center of world power, though it may slow it down slightly.

▪️“There’s no actual way to stop Iran from exerting more power… Donald Trump has doomed us to a trap,” Pape told Breaking Points.

▪️On the economy, Professor Pape says Kent’s plan doesn’t necessarily reopen the Strait for Gulf oil exporters — meaning the global economic damage continues regardless.

▪️His conclusion is that Kent is choosing a fork in the road, but is not escaping the trap Trump built for the United States by entering “this catastrophic disaster, [which] will probably go down certainly the worst since Vietnam.”

▪️“Vietnam did not wreck the world’s economy. The 2003 Iraq war did not wreck the world’s economy… This is all on his back,” the Professor said. “He’s given Iran actual knowledge they did not have before — they can beat America. Not just survive. They can actually beat America.”

Israel’s murder of journalists continues. The details of what happened to Amal Khalil are horrific. The Red Cross tried to rescue her but were themselves fired on.

How is Israel allowed such total impunity? Why is the international press not in uproar?

Genocide in Gaza. Apartheid and torture in West Bank. Stripping Lebanon bare. It's like a terrorist franchise — a "state-sponsored" death cult. The most morally bankrupt.

I think it’s important to note, that even though Vance is incompetent, if it wasn’t for Trump, Vance and Rubio would have had a deal by now.

The only thing standing in Trump’s way, is Trump.

He’s not a good deal maker.

He rambles, and lies and can’t keep his ego in check for even 2 seconds.

And the arrogance and the threats and the lies, have backed him into a corner.

There have been plenty of off-ramps here that even subpar statesmen could have navigated towards.

Instead, Trump is proving in his twilight years, that his entire life was a sham.

He lived off daddy’s money, a fake TV persona, and bullying undocumented workers.

The man who prides himself as the “deal maker” has shown he’s the person least capable of making a deal.
