Trump inherited a ceasefire in the horrific war between Yemen and Saudi Arabia and tossed it in the shredder, just like he inherited the Iran deal and torched it so he could start a war. He's a disgusting, evil war pig.
🇨🇺 Cuba’s national power grid collapsed again Tuesday, plunging nearly 10 million people into darkness. It is the country’s third nationwide blackout in eight days and the fifth since the Trump administration imposed its oil blockade in late January, @bellybeastcuba reports.
The months-long blockade has cut off Cuba’s main foreign fuel supplies, leaving its aging power plants starved of fuel and spare parts. Public transportation has largely halted, tens of thousands of surgeries have been canceled, and routine outages now leave some communities without electricity for more than 20 hours a day. Cuba, by itself, produces only about 40% of the fuel it needs.
Mehdi just said what the mainstream media won't. Lindsey Graham was a war criminal. He pushed for endless wars. He cheered for genocide. And now that he's dead, the media wants to sanitize him.
"Lindsey Graham said awful, genocidal, racist things. He argued for the Iran war that killed 100 schoolgirls on day one. He argued for the Iraq war that killed over a million people. He never met a Middle East country he didn't want to invade. The man has blood on his hands, and we shouldn't forget that."
The often mentioned $3.8 billion the US sends to Israel each year in military funding, as part of its MOU, is only a tiny fraction of the real cost that US taxpayers actually pay to finance and arm Israel’s endless wars of aggression, war crimes, military occupation, apartheid and genocide.
Leading economists, including Harvard war budgeting expert Linda Blimes, estimate the Iran war will exceed $1 trillion – yes, you’ve read it correctly! – in long term costs to US taxpayers.
The US could be funding schools, healthcare, housing and jobs for its people, but has instead chosen to fund Israel’s wars.
$1 trillion for Israel’s wars, austerity and rising costs for US taxpayers – not to mention US complicity in international crimes. Escalate BDS pressure to end all forms of US complicity!
Pro-Palestine activists held a solidarity protest for the kidnapped Palestinian Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, in front of the U.S. consulate in #Montreal, #Canada.
💔 Hunger is not the only thing exhausting the people of Gaza even the food that reaches us is often unsafe.
Today, we found a chick inside a rotten egg. It was a shocking and heartbreaking sight, a reminder that even the most basic food we depend on can no longer be trusted.
Many of the products that enter through the Israeli crossings arrive spoiled or past their expiration date, while people are forced to consume them because there are no other alternatives.
No one should be forced to choose between hunger and food that may endanger their health. Every human being has the right to safe, healthy, and dignified food. 💔
An entire family was killed tonight after Israeli warplanes bombed their apartment in Deir al-Balah, southern Gaza. The father, mother, and their little daughter were killed
This boy is the only survivor after Israel killed his mother, father, and sister
Four-year-old Nisreen Lulu has suffered from a hemangioma since birth, and it has continued to grow over time. She has now developed amblyopia (lazy eye), putting her eyesight at risk. Nisreen urgently needs to travel abroad for surgery that is unavailable in the Gaza Strip before she loses her vision.
You'll probably be stunned to learn that religious Ashkenazi Jews don't recognize black Jews as real Jews, don't accept them into their insitutions and do not marry them under any circumstances (with a habdful of exceptions in the delulu US). They also deeply hate brown Jews
An important exchange that illuminates the ideological obstacles that Palestinians face on the path to freedom. Ro, a leading Congressional critic of Israel, is unwilling to affirm that Palestinians have the right to armed resistance against a genocidal Israeli military occupation. By contrast, he affirms that the Israeli occupiers have the right to bomb Palestinians who resist.
As punishment for my factual journalism, I was subjected to political harassment by the Trump administration upon my return from Iran.
This Israeli-influenced criminal cartel is clearly threatened by my reporting from Tehran, where I showed the massive crowds of mourners and ferocious public backlash to the assassination of [Ayatollah Ali] Khamenei, exposed US and Israeli war crimes against civilians from the ground, and conducted candid interviews with officials, negotiators and influential Iranians.
The seizure of my devices was a clear act of intimidation aimed at deterring me and others from doing further critical reporting from Iran, which is likely why my interrogators from CPB demanded to know if I would be returning to Tehran to report any time soon.
This little boy is asking for help filling a jerrycan that likely weighs more than he does. In Gaza, this is the daily reality for thousands of children. Every day begins with the search for water instead of school, play, or rest. https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX
Water is not just a humanitarian need. It is dignity, health, and survival. Yet children are carrying burdens that no child should ever have to bear because the systems that once sustained them have been destroyed.
The Sameer Project continues to deliver clean water to families across Gaza, but the need is immense and grows every day especially during these hot summer months.
Your support helps keep water trucks moving, our desalination plant producing, and ensures children like him don't have to carry the weight of this genocide alone.

One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked.
The moment the tents of displaced people were bombed in the southern Gaza Strip, in the Mawasi area of Khan Yunis, killing more than 500 civilians.
A video that the world must never forget.
If you can’t figure out a nation state that allows and encourages is occupying army to kill babies breast feeding from their mothers is completely insane and evil - you are beyond human reasoning. just how extreme is the zionist dehumanization of Palestinians ie - fellow human beings ?
As extreme as you can get on the physical plane of earth -
What could possibly be more evil?
Not stopping it .
🚨HORRIFIC : An entire family erased.
Four sisters. Four futures erased. On July 10, Israeli forces killed Taqwa, Yaqeen, Ihsan and Iman Shabana, along with their mother and younger brother, in an airstrike on their displacement tent in al-Mawasi, Khan Younis southern Gaza Strip.
Utterly shocking but not a surprise. Impunity breeds hubris.
All states and people who care for Freedom must rise up in defense of the ICC and int'l justice now, before it's too late.
It's rule of law or barbarism.
