MUST WATCH: Investigative journalist Whitney Webb says that Palantir has replaced Jeffrey Epstein as the ultimate tool of blackmail:
"They don't really need blackmail anymore... [Palantir is] the new Jeffrey Epstein."
"If they want to blackmail you or know something about you, they just access what Palantir's sucked up about you and your search history, your communications, your finances, tweets you've liked in the past."
"You don't really need Epstein in the surveillance era."
"The disturbing thing about Palantir is that it's really about pre-crime. They were the pioneers of predictive policing."
"Palantir is the resurrection of [a] DARPA program called Total Information Awareness—that was so scandalous when it was announced it was defunded by Congress."
"But then they realised that if they turned it into a private company, no one would complain. And that's how we got Palantir."
I'm sorry to be insensitive but what the fuck did pro-war Iranians think "please bomb our country" was asking for? What did they think that would look like in practice?
This is why you need to be dismissive of EVERYONE who supports this war. Even Iranian diaspora, and even Iranians in Iran. Nobody who wants the US and Israel to bomb the place where their family lives truly understands what it is they're asking for.
They're not interfacing with reality in their worldview; they've bought into the war propaganda and ingested a fantasy, just like all the shitbrained warmongering westerners. Nobody with a truth-based relationship with reality would ever ask for this.
Now they've got what they asked for, and they're probably going to watch their country get bombed to rubble and then plunged into chaos and instability for the foreseeable future as the US and Israel try to create a gigantic Libya in west Asia.
Sometimes you need to tell people to shut the fuck up and stop demanding crazy acts of war, regardless of what country their family happens to be from.
It took a European journalist to finally ask this neo-nazi monster the kind of questions American journalists have failed to ask her on a daily basis for almost a year now.
Nothing to see here, just the New York Times actually justifying Israel’s ban on humanitarian orgs—like Doctors Without Borders and Save the Children—that provide life-saving support to Palestinians.
This is propaganda, not journalism.
In loving memory of the children in this video, cold-bloodedly murdered by Israel.
They are among the approximately 22000 children Israel has slaughtered in about two year.
“To preserve the values of the civilized world, it is necessary to set fire to a library. To blow up a mosque. To incinerate olive trees. To dress up in the lingerie of women who fled and then take pictures. To level universities. To loot jewellery, art, banks, food. To arrest children for picking vegetables. To shoot children for throwing stones. To parade the captured in their underwear. To break a man’s teeth and shove a toilet brush in his mouth. To let combat dogs loose on a man with Down syndrome and then leave him to die. Otherwise, the uncivilized world might win.”
--Omar El Akkad, “One day, everyone will have always been against this"
The pro-Israel lobby commandeered the US sanctions machine to impose insane, sweeping sanctions on the UN's @FranceskAlbs, denying her income for the crime of documenting Israel's atrocities in Gaza.
Here's the director of one of those groups trying to block her book income:
Israeli soldiers said they specifically received orders to cancel all patrols along the Gaza border on October 7th, 2023 from 5:20 AM until 9:00 AM

This is 'mythomania':
CNN compiles 3 decades of Netanyahu's continuing lies about Iran's nuclear program, each time warning that Iran was very close to developing a nuclear bomb.
“Some scholars and scientists estimate the real death toll in Gaza at 680,000.”
“If confirmed, 380,000 of them are infants under five.”
—Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur
"Israel's goal is to ethnically cleanse Gaza. It's a lunatic society, not just Netanyahu, it's the whole society. And it's using genocidal means in order to achieve that goal, ready to kill as many as needed."

Israeli Zionism needs global antisemitism to fuel it, because if there was no antisemitism, Jews would not be attracted to Zionism.
So much so, that Israel’s Mossad staged false flag antisemitic terror attacks in Iraq in the 1950s to create a panic among Iraqi Jews so that they would leave and move to Israel…
Previously, despite the Iraqi Parliament passing a law allowing Jews to leave the country if they wished, a mass Iraqi Jewish migration wave to Israel did not happen. So Israel’s Mossad created the conditions necessary for that mass migration wave to occur.
