Strip away the cameras and this exact event becomes a story told by survivors.
Three generations on it's tradition.
A few thousand years on, scholars call it myth.
Just to hammer the point home, imagine this x1000 across the entirety of North America at the same time the ocean rises 50 ft. That's exactly what happened at the end of the pleistocene. And people will still ask "if there was a civilization here, where are their buildings?"
"Central Intelligence Agency Director John Ratcliffe and Steve Witkoff, one of Trump’s main Iran envoys, walked into a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago after the war kicked off Feb. 28 to inform Trump that Israel had killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Trump was so pleased that he told them to deliver the news to the crowd.
The room burst into applause. Trump, soaking in the praise from his aides and the guests, crossed his arms and puffed out his chest, people familiar with the event said."

NEW: B’nai Brith Canada won’t rent units in its Toronto apartment buildings to non-Jews, according to property management reps.
I called pretending to be interested in their buildings. Here’s what they told me…

Jeremy Moss caught on a hot mic: "The entire purpose of my campaign is to make sure America continues to support Israel. I don't think it's wrong for Jews in America to want to put Israel First. America is not our homeland."
In my judgement, the US Armed Forces have probably permanently lost access to 15 Persian Gulf bases. Iran now poised to control access the Gulf States. US will have to negotiate new access in western Saudi Arabia, Israel, southern Europe.
Mumia Abu-Jamal sent a message about his actual feelings about the US-Israeli war of aggression against Iran. He wrote it on two paper plates. It is more eloquent than the Guardian letter, whose right to put his name down needs to be questioned. Who signed for Mumia?
A transcription of the text on the plates:
‘My young friends,
Iran is showing the world (especially the 3rd world) how to fight against the Empire. Their drones are rewriting the rules of war. And countries across the Global South are studying this phase of the war for that use!
They remind me of Vietnam poor country that whipped the most powerful army on earth... That's where we are today.
Love...
Mumia���
As the OSINT community has already demonstrated today, the Axios report claiming that around 40 ships passed through the Strait of Hormuz on Friday night is completely fabricated.
In any case, traders no longer believe the words of American media outlets aligned with the government, so this attempt to drive down the price of Brent Crude Oil failed.
Norman Finkelstein: "Why isn't Angela Davis asking herself: 'why am I getting all these hysterical warm receptions from all of these filthy rich crooks'?"
Full version: "Trump's main advantage in conducting foreign policy is that he is liberated from taboos and willing to experiment, to find out just how much leverage the United States can bring to bear. But whatever benefit could hypothetically come from Trump's flexibility has been overwhelmed by his extreme deficit of strategic empathy. He simply seems unable to understand and accept how things look to other countries and what positions they can and cannot accept. He is obsessed with applying coercion, and sometimes flattery, to bend others to his will, but oblivious to their strategic goals and domestic politics. As a result, he keeps flailing and failing."
🇨🇺 Marco Rubio’s frustration is simple: his blockade hasn’t bent us an inch.
This video says it all—our people dancing to Billie Jean during a blackout. Rubio dreamed of desperation; we gave him resilience. No one will take away our pride and joy of being Cuban.
This is absolutely hilarious: the guy on the picture posted by the Department of State is NOT the Abdoulaye Seye from the ICC that they sanctioned.
He is also called Abdoulaye Seye but he works for Unicef, not the ICC - as is obvious from the picture with the Unicef flag (taken from his Linkedin profile: https://t.co/sWVtejD3JF).
In other words, they're so eager to do Israel's bidding against the ICC that they don't even take the time to know what the people they're sanctioning look like. Israeli official accounts, on their end, got the picture right (https://t.co/89FgKzrtGc): they know who they're after.
