The United States’ cynical decision to resume active warfare against Iran while simultaneously draping itself under the guise of a gracious global host for the FIFA World Cup exposes a foreign policy defined by rank impunity and lawlessness.
Local officials are so focused on the World Cup that nothing is being done about this 4 day nightmare fire in Boyle Heights. They can’t even put together a consistent message across municipalities. Awful
Sportswashing uses athletic spectacles to sanitize state violence. The U.S. wants the World Cup to mask its domestic neo-fascism: militarized police flooding cities, ICE terrorizing migrants, and border blockades. The Anti-Fascist Football Coalition says NO. Boycott the games.
AT WHAT PRICE THE WORLD CUP?
As the US funnels billions of dollars into the FIFA World Cup, schools are closing near some of the major stadiums. In this video, Austin Cole, co-coordinator of the Black Alliance for Peace (@Blacks4Peace ), talks about the price that US residents have had to pay and will have to pay in exchange for hosting the world's biggest sporting event.
In addition to school closures, Cole talks about how the tournament serves as a testing ground for new surveillance technologies that are likely to become a permanent fixture in US neighbourhoods long after it ends.
For this reason, in addition to racist discrimination against African teams, referees and fans, and the exclusion of Iran, which was banned from spending an overnight within US boundaries, the Black Alliance for Peace is calling for a boycott of the 2026 World Cup.

While Elon Musk's net worth topped $1,000,000,000,000, the average U.S. household bank account has around $8,000 in it (and most of us would kill for even close to that).
A comprehensive global study that surveyed tens of thousands of people in nearly 100 countries found that the vast majority see the United States as the biggest threat to the world. @geopolitcaecon

US Attorney Daniel Rosen claims they've arrested 13 people (out of 15), whom they are charging with conspiracy. He says defendants “identify as antifa.” He referenced the EO issued by Trump designating “antifa” a terrorist group, something he does not have the authority to do.
recently Bari Weiss put a kill target on Refaat Alareer, a Palestinian writer and reporter in Gaza, for daring to joke about the baby in oven hoax. The Israeli regime, whose members follow her every word, have now killed him. Bari Weiss killed Refaat Alareer

This 315-page collection of works discusses the New Economic Policy implemented by Lenin. This topic is seldom studied in the Western left, yet every existing communist-led country references Lenin's blueprint for their own material conditions.
‼️Episode 584 - America First Is Incompatible w/ Anti-Imperialism: Taking Down the Compatible Right (w/ @GabrielRockhill)‼️
"[I]t's great because they're in our wake, so to speak, but what [America 1st conservatives are] trying to do is capture that frustration/anger at Israeli imperialism, keep the level of political consciousness very low so you don't see that there is no Israel of the Israel that we know without the US behind it, and then transform it into a kind of ultra-nationalist politics of the US first."
Israeli drones targeted me while I was clearly filming a report in an open space with all requirements (press signs on the car, vest and helmet with press signs, cellphones open and not doing anything else.
I was told that Lebanese army was blocking the road somewhere, so i went there searching for where the Lebanese army is.
I stopped at Arnoun-Yohmor-Kfartebnit roundabout because i didn't want to go further.
I got outside my car, with my cameras in the cage and my microphone with PressTV logo.
I was filming when the Israeli drones deliberately attacked where I was standing, and not my car.
Two brave men were able to come to my rescue after about 15 to 20 minutes. I was trying to get away from my car as I was expecting they might retarget it.
6 shrapnels hit my body (1 right chest, 3 right leg, 2 left leg).
I am better now.
Targeting journalists is a war crime.
I wish if any international legal side was able to benefit from this video to
Glory to the resistance, our only hope in front of those zionist criminals.
