Two Gazan children, in a park with a book. A quiet but powerful determination that childhood must continue.
طفلان من غزّة يستمتعان بالقراءة في الحديقة. إصرار وعزيمة لا تقهران.

مريم ميرزاخاني عالمة رياضيات من أصل إيراني ( توفيت بمرض السرطان في ٢٠١٧)، أول امرأة تفوز بميدالية فيلدز في الرياضيات، التي تُعد بمثابة نوبل الرياضيات، درست في جامعة شريف للتكنولوجيا، التي تعرّضت للقصف من قبل الولايات المتحدة وإسرائيل. ولم تفز أي امرأة أميركية بهذه الميدالية حتى الآن. وما يزال الانحدار الأخلاقي للولايات المتحدة يتواصل إلى مستويات أدنى فأدنى.
Israel is the definition of the terrorist state. That most European leaders continue to characterise it a liberal democracy reflects the sad state of European liberal democracy...
Israel murdered every single person in this photo today in South Lebanon.
Every. Single. One.
2 journalists
7 paramedics
1 Lebanese soldier
They bombed the journalists’ vehicle — then bombed them again when paramedics rushed to help.
For over a decade, we Iranians watched Western countries, Arab regimes, and their Israeli enablers stand by as our economy was deliberately crushed under the weight of America’s illegal sanctions and maximum pressure campaign.
We watched them eagerly comply with policies designed to destroy our nation, shatter our lives, crush our dreams, bankrupt our businesses, rot our infrastructure, devalue our currency, and cut us off from normal trade and economic relations with the world.
We watched European leaders pathetically nod in satisfaction and offer pathetic lip service as Trump declared the JCPOA a “bad deal,” using it as cover for the most brutal campaign against our people—fully aware that scrapping the deal was nothing more than his sick, twisted obsession with erasing his predecessor’s legacy.
We watched U.S. officials and their Israel lobby handlers proudly parade before Congress, armed with figures and statistics, boasting how their vicious policies had tanked our currency, spiked unemployment, sent inflation soaring, and inflicted trillions of dollars in damage on our already strained economy.
We watched them cheer these results and laugh at the shattered lives of millions of human beings.
We watched them dutifully support the first Trump administration’s sadistic policies—even during the COVID pandemic—when his criminal Secretary of State moved heaven and earth to block Iran from securing even a meager $5 billion IMF loan, while their own governments freely spent hundreds of billions to protect their populations from the same virus.
We watched them shamelessly endorse Israel’s attacks on our territory under the obscene slogan “Israel has the right to defend itself,” while branding Iran’s legitimate self-defense as “recklessness” and demanding that our government refrain from “escalation.”
We watched them applaud the assassination of our war veterans and heroes, our scientists, and our brightest minds - all in the name of “non-proliferation” - while they kept their mouths tightly shut about Israel’s nuclear arsenal and expansionist agenda.
We watched them, openly or in private, urging more pressure, more destruction, more assassinations, and more war.
All of it justified by the ludicrous and baseless claim that Iran seeks nuclear weapons—a lie they knew was false. They were fully aware that the enrichment levels and constraints Iran had accepted under the JCPOA, and during subsequent negotiations for a new deal, made militarization impossible.
They invented excuse after excuse to engineer our destruction, and they laughed while ensuring the pain was ours alone.
But things have changed. Iran will no longer stand by and watch its own destruction while others nod, cheer and laugh. They will not be laughing anymore.
This time, we will not be the only ones who feel pain. We will no longer tolerate unilateral sanctions and destruction.
We may die standing—but this time, we will all be in same boat.
The McSweeney-Starmer takeover of the Labour Party needed cash, and Waheed Alli was on hand to provide.
Alli was Starmer’s biggest personal donor, gifting over £30k for the Prime Minister’s clothing and glasses.
Now, his name appears in the Epstein Files.
@RafikAbdessalem صحيح، أضف الى ذلك أن المقاومة الايرانية بالاضافة الى إسقاط الطائرات الأمريكية في سماء ايران اسقطت ايضاً الكثير من الأقنعة عن وجوه قبيحة لأفراد ودول ومؤسسات اعلامية كنّا نكنّ لها سابقاً الاحترام والتقدير.
BREAKING: I$raeli fighter jets carried out a massacre at dawn with at least six strikes targeting civilian homes in Kfar Hatta, Sidon District, south Lebanon
The entire members of two displaced families were among those killed with a death toll that continues to rise.
I’m a family doctor, and I join the call by @drtlaleng in demanding the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya who remains in Israeli captivity for over a year. He has been subjected to severe torture. Our medical colleagues have been targeted for doing their jobs - release them all!
What’s the hidden connection between the NHS, Israel, Jeffrey Epstein and the Lord of the Rings?
@harriepw asks why a spy-tech firm – whose technology is used by the IDF in Gaza and ICE in the US – has access to NHS data in the UK.
Palantir’s biggest ever UK government contract, worth £240m, was awarded after prime minister Keir Starmer attended a meeting at the firm’s headquarters in Washington last February.
But Starmer never declared the visit to the public.
