A Lebanese Christian girl killed by Israel, just out of bloodthirst. Vicious criminals.

🇮🇱 A West Bank council has finally admitted Israeli settlers have been systematically raping kids as young as three and four.

After years of denial, the Gush Etzion Regional Council acknowledged ritualistic sexual abuse cases in its communities following a bombshell Kan 11 investigation.

The abuse spanned years and is emerging as one of the most organized and disturbing sexual abuse cases ever exposed in Israel.

For years, allegations were met with denials and deep skepticism, but in a complete 180, the council is now acknowledging the problem, calling it "pure evil and moral depravity that has no place in human society."

Yahudi İzleyici: (ağlayarak) Konuşmanız sırasında Yahudilere yönelik birçok kez Nazi benzetmesi yaptınız. Bu son derece incitici. Bu, Nazi rejimi altında gerçekten acı çekmiş olan insanlar için çok aşağılayıcı.

Norman Finkelstein cevap veriyor:

— Bu tavra artık saygı duymuyorum. Gerçekten duymuyorum. Bu timsah gözyaşlarından hoşlanmıyorum ve onlara saygı da duymuyorum. (Dinleyicilerden alkışlar ve yuhalamalar yükselir)

— Yabancı bir dinleyici kitlesi önünde "Holokost kartını" oynamaktan hoşlanmıyorum ama şu an kendimi buna mecbur hissediyorum. Rahmetli babam Auschwitz'deydi. Rahmetli annem Majdanek toplama kampındaydı. Ailemin her iki taraftan da tüm üyeleri katledildi. Annem ve babam Varşova Gettosu Ayaklanması'na katıldılar.

— İşte tam da annem ve babamın bana ve iki kardeşime öğrettikleri dersler nedeniyle, İsrail'in Filistinlilere karşı işlediği suçlar karşısında sessiz kalmayacağım! Onların acılarını ve ölümlerini kullanarak; İsrail'in her gün Filistinlilere karşı işlediği işkence, vahşet ve ev yıkma suçlarını meşru göstermeye çalışmaktan daha aşağılık bir şey düşünemiyorum!

— Bu yüzden artık bu gözyaşlarıyla sindirilmeyi veya baskılanmayı reddediyorum. Eğer zerre vicdanın olsaydı, burada döktüğün o gözyaşlarını Filistinliler için döküyor olurdun!

🇮🇱🇵🇸Holy shit, Haaretz published a list of atrocities Israeli soldiers did and saw in Gaza, and the details are stomach churning:

•⁠ ⁠Soldiers pissing on a bound, blindfolded detainee while laughing and joking about October 7
•⁠ ⁠Interrogators torturing detainees by tying cable ties around their genitals
•⁠ ⁠An officer executing an unarmed Palestinian who had surrendered with hands up, then covering it up as a “terrorist killed”
•⁠ ⁠Widespread excitement in units over “special means” used to kill people in tunnels, while one soldier said it reminded him of the Holocaust
•⁠ ⁠A tank gunning down five Palestinians crossing a line (four killed), followed by a D9 bulldozer burying the bodies in sand
•⁠ ⁠Soldiers opening fire on unarmed civilians, including an old man and three teenage boys who turned out to be completely unarmed
•⁠ ⁠Looting Palestinian homes, burning photos, and urinating on personal belongings for fun

The impact back home has been brutal.

Soldiers are throwing out mirrors because they can’t look at themselves.

Others are breaking down crying in public. Many are struggling with suicidal thoughts, shame, and nightmares.

These soldiers will carry this for decades.

Heavy, painful reading.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

This is horror in real time.

The moment Israel started dropping bombs on CIVILIAN AREAS in Lebanon.

Without any warning.

Israel dropped 160 bombs in the first minute alone — massacring over 250 civilians, dozens of them children.

People are still buried under the rubble.

[Joe Kent @joekent16jan19]

Unfortunately leaving NATO won’t be to avoid foreign entanglements, we’ll be leaving NATO so we can side with Israel when Turkey & Israel eventually clash in Syria.

This is after we helped topple the secular Syrian gov & installed a former AQ/ISIS leader as president.

Time to stop playing arsonist & fireman in the Middle East, it’s just not worth it.

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

Absolute heartbreak on Al Jazeera. A brave resident exposes Israel's deliberate targeting of civilians. He breaks down after carrying a three year old child with shrapnel in his head. He confirms there were absolutely no military targets, just innocent families. Pure evil.

To ensure the ceasefire is successful we must first ensure that we restrain the Israelis.

Iran Release Proof Erika Kirk Murdered Charlie as Part of Israeli Coup of America

Iran just released proof that Erika Kirk has been a Mossad agent for years.

Hacked Israeli intelligence files reveal that Erika is a professional honeypot, tasked with infiltrating and compromising the US conservative movement from the inside.

The files expose a multi-year operation to smuggle her all the way into the White House.

🚨Tucker Carlson just went off on Trump on Easter morning.

The full statement:

“No decent person mocks other people’s religions. You mock other people’s faith — you mock the idea of faith itself. We are not God. Only if you think you are do you talk this way.”

“This is not a mockery of Islam. This is a mockery of Christianity. To send a tweet with the F word on Easter morning promising the murder of civilians and then saying ‘praise be to Allah’ — you are mocking every other Christian and me.”

“That is evil. That is an intentional desecration of beauty and truth — which is the definition of evil.”

[Masu Zafi 🔥🔥 @masuzafi]

Pete Hegseth out here doing Olympic-level gymnastics to bring back Confederate general names on U.S. military bases.
"This is about restoring history and Army morale!" bro says, while twisting himself into knots to pretend it's not about Robert E. Lee & Co. who literally took up arms against America for slavery.

Hegseth defending renaming military bases after Confederate traitors: “We’re not erasing history!” Yeah, you’re just doing backflips to rebrand Robert E. Lee as “some other guy with the same name.”

On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted.
Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness.
I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit.
I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this.
The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon.
You know who has nuclear weapons?
Israel.
They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it.
Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing.
On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies.
Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.
Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace.
Not escalating war that is hurting people.
This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most.
This is not making America great again, this is evil.

[Tuki @TukiFromKL]

🚨 let me tell you what just happened because I'm sure most people completely missed this..

Kamal Kharazi was Iran's lead negotiator.. the man actively working through Pakistan to arrange a backchannel meeting between Iranian officials and JD Vance.. the only active diplomatic channel that existed to prevent what Trump called a "2 to 3 week" strike window..

Israel just bombed his house.. his wife is dead.. Kharazi is in hospital..

and you need to pay attention to the timing..

this isn't the first time Iran's negotiators have been killed right before a deal could be made..
Mohsen Fakhrizadeh was Iran's top nuclear scientist and the man considered most essential to any future nuclear negotiations..
he was assassinated in November 2020, widely attributed to Israel.. the nuclear talks were set back by years.. in 2012, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan.. a senior figure at Iran's Natanz enrichment facility.. was killed in a targeted car bombing in Tehran, also attributed to Israel.. the pattern holds every single time..

every time Iran and the US get close to talking, someone removes the people doing the talking..

Trump said 2 to 3 weeks.. someone in Iran was actively building the exit ramp from that window.. and today the man building that exit is in hospital and his wife is in the ground..

whoever bombed that house wasn't trying to win a war..
they were trying to make sure there isn't a peace.
