The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

في عملية التفاوض وجب وضع الإطار النهائي للتفاوض وعدم الوقوع مجددا في بيان مشترك أميركي لبناني يجمع التناقضات كما نحذر من عملية التفاوض من اجل التفاوض مثل مسار أوسلو حيث قد يصبح قسماً من الجنوب وتراثه وتاريخه وشعبه في خبر كان كما يحدث في فلسطين #لبنان

Their absence of self-awareness is a serious pathology. They just killed 3k civilians (really, civilians) and are complaining that their invading soldiers are facing some risks WHILE INVADING.

An urgent call for international medical organizations to act fast to rebuild the medical capabilities of Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre, South Lebanon.
Please share this message.

Normal news from South Lebanon:
An injured child bleeding and crying on the ground in front of his father and mother murdered by an Israeli drone strike on their motorcycle in Adoussiyeh, near Ghaziyeh area between Saida and Tyre.
I was just there, eating some food in my car, considering this place to be a "safe place".
This will be normalized here, but later exported to everywhere around the world, and is being done only because of the open support from the complicit west for Israel, especially USA.

My friends and colleagues Fatima Fatouni and Hajj Ali Choeib have been killed by the Israeli army in a targeted drone strike.

They were shining examples of journalistic integrity and speaking truth to power. They died in the field while documenting Israeli war crimes. May they rest in peace.

Here's what a few hours in the life of Lebanon's National Lifeline for Suicide Prevention (1564) sound like during #war time:

- A 23-year-old displaced mother from South Lebanon (Khyem) calling from inside a car in Saida (now known as the transit city) - where she is living with her 3 young children because shelters are full.
- An 88-year-old man displaced from Southern #Beirut calling to ask for basic assistance
- A young man calling from Southern Beirut, currently under attack, calling because he and his mother had nowhere safe to go.
- Another caller described feeling “مخنوق” — suffocated by the density, the noise, the uncertainty created by war.

And in the middle of all of this:
- A 16-year-old girl who attempted suicide
- A 23-year-old struggling with addiction after a suicide attempt yesterday
- A mother with cancer caring for a child with epilepsy while seeking help for her suicidal daughter
- A man who was about to end his life with shattered glass before picking up the phone

This is the daily reality of answering Lebanon’s National Lifeline (1564), where every call reflects the collision of our crises: war, displacement, poverty, chronic illness, addiction, and the silent toll on mental health.

In contexts like #Lebanon, a crisis hotline is much more than an emotional support line. It becomes a first point of access to the entire health and social protection system.
In a single shift today, our team provided:
- suicide intervention and safety planning
- emotional support during acute distress
- referrals for psychiatric care and medication
- shelter and humanitarian assistance referrals
- support for displaced families
- guidance for parents responding to suicide attempts
- connection to emergency services and NGOs

Behind each call is a trained responder, a volunteer, holding space for someone who may have nowhere else to turn, while silently living many of the same struggles themselves.
In times of war, mental health emergencies do not pause. They multiply, and set the stage for the long term psychological consequences that follow conflict.

Lebanon’s National Lifeline continues to operate 24/7, responding to hundreds of calls each month from people facing the most difficult moments of their lives.
Every call our volunteers answer, is a proof of why this Lifeline is essential to our national infrastructure, and must be protected and sustained.

ماذا ستقول الدول العربية ازاء إعلان نتنياهو أنه في مهمة تاريخية و روحية لإنشاء إسرائيل الكبرى ما يعني ليس فقط ضم جميع الأراضي الفلسطينية بل و العربية ايضا.

أقف أمام الكاميرا لأروي معاناة شعبي، وأتحدث عن الجوع الذي ينهش أجسادنا.
يخنقني الألم، ويغلبني الجوع فأصمت للحظة… ثم أواصل الحديث.
هكذا هو حالي، وحال ��ل من بقي حيًّا في غزة..

[أنس الشري�� Anas Al-Sharif @AnasAlSharif0]

يا عالم .. يا ناس.
أوقفوا الحرب … نحن نموت.

الناس الآن يعيشون حالة من الإنهاك التام — تعب، قهر، ووجع لا يوصف.
تائهون في الشوارع، يسيرون بلا وجهة، بلا مأوى، بلا خبز أو ماء.
أدنى مقومات الحياة مفقودة، ودعوات وقف هذه الحرب تتصاعد من كل قلب محطم في غزة.

في شمال غزة، لا يكتفي جيش الاحتلال بتدمير ما تبقّى، بل يعيد قصف المدمر ويمحو كل أشكال الحياة.
الناس يهربون من موت إلى موت، من تحت الركام إلى غارات الصواريخ التي لا تترك لهم حتى فرصة الدفن وهم أحياء.
