Note to those at the back :
You can be appalled by the stabbing of 2 Jewish people in Golders Green
AND
Be appalled by the war crimes of Israel
Period.
I spent 48hrs desperately hoping the story of the 2-year-old baby being tortured by the IDF in Gaza was fake news or whatever, because I just couldn't face the truth.
I summoned the stomach to check the sources & video & honestly, it's cast iron.
Utterly beyond depravity.
For the next 48 hours, @ForeignPolicy will drop its paywall on all Iran coverage! Here are some of the biggest news stories you should read to understand the U.S.-Israel war against Iran. 1/8
Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.
Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.
We live in Orwellian times.
🚨As of yesterday, the Islamic regime opened up the Internet at around 30% connectivity. Forced to do it for their own interests as the country was near to complete paralysis.
As such, hundreds of videos have now come through on the telegram channels. I’ve seen about 10% of them. I have now stopped.
We always knew what this regime was capable of. The cruelty, savagery and barbarism that I am seeing now is on a different level. It is not just the foreign militias hired by the regime from Iraq and Afghanistan to do their dirty work. It is also Iranian security forces against their fellow countrymen, unarmed civilians.
The numbers being killed each day is increasing at such an alarming rate it is beyond shocking. Bodies are piled up on the streets of the major cities in black bags like garbage. Equally staggering is the silence and inaction by the international community.
Hitler tried to exterminate the Jews. What we are witnessing in Iran in real time is a government trying exterminate a segment of their own population that that does not agree with them. Even if it’s the majority, there is no stopping them.
What gives people in Iran hope is us not looking away. But most importantly - in the brief moments the internet allows them - to glimpse messages of support from people on here. Because it make them feel less lonely.
All eyes on Iran.

🚨 Colombian President:
Drug traffickers live in the skyscrapers of Dubai and Miami,
and their money flows through the global banking system… with full “transparency,” of course.
The world is fighting drugs?
No, my friend… it’s managing them with interest.
I hope his children grow up to know their Dad was loved by literally millions of football fans across the world.
A champion with both his club and his country.
Rest in peace Diogo.
This photo should be on the front page of every major British newspaper.
But it won’t be — because, like the political class, they’re complicit.
It’s their genocide too.
Israel is the most depraved regime on earth.
They lie day after day and are starving an entire population to death, whilst a few miles away Israeli kids eat fast food.
Many children can no longer even walk due to dizziness and weakness from famine.
Families are eating grass and contaminated waste.
This is supported by western governments and it's unforgivable.
