⚡#UPDATE The Israeli ambassador claims that "𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐋𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐧����𝐧". But, several senior members of the Netanyahu government signaled the opposite:

- Israeli minister of defense said the IDF will stay in southern Lebanon "with no time limit". Israel's minister of national security said he wants to build Jewish settlements in southern Lebanon

- At least two political organizations affiliated with Netanyahu coalition partners are working on plans for settlements in Lebanon and getting support from lawmakers in Netanyahu's coalition

The U.S. is investigating Germany for making medication and healthcare a little too affordable for their citizens.

They're pressuring Germany to raise prices and invest more in "innovative pharmaceutical research" to keep international drug prices from going down.

Today, 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐚 𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐥, founder of the Orange House Project, passed away after injuries sustained when an Israeli strike hit her home in Mansouri.

She refused to leave the place she loved, staying through two wars just meters from the beach and the sea turtles she spent her life protecting.

For more than two decades, she dedicated herself to preserving that coastline, turning her home into a sanctuary and protecting a fragile ecosystem she called her life’s work.

Rest in peace #MonaKhalil 🙏🏻😢💔

100 الف دولار مجمدة على 7 سنوات بفايدة 5% بتصير 140 الف $.

100 الف $ محجوزة من قبل عصابة المصارف ل 7 سنين ورئيس الحكومة ورئيس الجمهورية يغطي على تجويع المودعين.

هذه ليست تصرفات رجال دولة وانما مافيات وسخة

I sometimes feel we've REALLY lost our perspective lately because $112 billion in net profit in a year is an INSANE amount of money, yet Apple is saying it's forced to increase prices on consumers. We should just be so much angrier about all of this.

Zionistas still think they can collapse the world economy with the same impunity with which they collapse civilian buildings in Beirut.
Wake up.

This is what Israel did to the souks in Nabatieh. They date back to the Ottoman era.

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

Apple is a $4.35 trillion corporation. It made $112 billion in profits last year & paid its CEO, who's already worth $2.9 billion, $74 million in compensation. In the past 3 years, it's spending $310 billion on stock buybacks.

Don't cite inflation. Cite the damn corporate greed.

Today in Haaretz there is an article accusing Israel of being a terrorist state (plus committing crimes against humanity). It was not written by a Marxist member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
It was written by former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert.

Trump is giving $300 billion to Iran. This could pay for:

— Student debt elimination for 7.6M Americans
— An end to homelessness in America
— Healthcare subsidies for 22M Americans for nearly a decade
— Medicaid coverage for 3.2M Americans for a decade
— Food assistance for 41M Americans for 3 years
— Federal cancer research for 40+ years
— Free school lunch for every kid in America for over 4 years
— Replacing every lead pipe in America
— Free pre-K for every child in America for over 7 years

If the U.S. and Iran sign a truce tomorrow, Lebanon is left with:

• 10–15% of its territory effectively lost or inaccessible
• Thousands of Lebanese dead
• Over a million displaced
• Billions in economic damage
• Dual reporting lines: Israel and Iran
• Deeper sectarian divisions
• Weaker state sovereignty

No change in political/military actors.
All winners no losers debate 😅.

Just when you think things can’t get worse for this fragmented country, a new floor appears beneath the old one.

🚨 BREAKING: Lebanon files UN Security Council complaint accusing I$rael of violating the Chemical Weapons Convention in the south

Lab tests from Aita al-Shaab, Naqoura, and Dhaira confirmed catastrophic levels of Glyphosate—a cancer-linked chemical—in agricultural soil.

Normal farming levels would show 0.5 to 2 mcg/g but tests on soil in South Lebanon show 22,750 mcg/g, 11,000 times above safe levels

It has been labeled by some as a deliberate war crime designed to permanently destroy arable border lands.

Here is our report from the scene filmed in February
