Contrary to the impression Israel seeks to create, its campaign of ethnic cleansing and forced displacement in the West Bank is not merely the result of sporadic settler violence. The violence is anything but sporadic, and settlers, in fact, play only a secondary role in it. As with nearly everything in the West Bank, the main driving force is the IDF. @Bryakoby, our Director of Media and Communications, made this point before a special Knesset committee chaired by MKs Ofer Cassif and Aida Touma-Suleiman of Hadash.

Exactly. "Never again" meant never again to anyone. Germany reads it as a blood debt to one people, owed no matter what that state does.

But a principle that applies to only one nation isn't a principle. Shielding a government through a genocide in the name of a past genocide isn't atonement — it's the same hierarchy of human worth, just rearranged.

Thousands of people are protesting in Albania against Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner’s plan to build a luxury resort on an environmentally sensitive part of Albania’s coastline.

The $1.6 billion development is being led by Kushner's investment firm Affinity Partners.

Albania’s prime minister Edi Rama has defended the development, arguing it will bring investment, jobs and more tourists to the country.

Today marks the 37th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre, when the Communist regime sent tanks to trample peaceful pro-democracy protesters. Their bravery will not be forgotten, including the man who stopped a column of tanks.

This shows that Germany obviously still doesn't get it: their "historical responsibility" isn't to support Israel even as they commit genocide.

When the lesson of Nazism is obviously a universal one about justice, they instead think it's a blood debt to a particular people.

Which is, when you think about it, the Nazi way of looking at it: hierarchizing peoples and assigning collective responsibility - or collective impunity - on that basis.

“What really hurts them is the suburbs. We need to target them, flatten them and completely destroy them.”

Far-right Israeli minister Itamar Ben Gvir called on the army to “flatten” Beirut's suburbs “to the ground”, a direct incitement to mass civilian destruction.

🇩🇪 German journalist Anna Liedtke was abducted by Israeli forces after the Gaza-bound Conscience flotilla was seized in international waters. After being transferred to Givon Prison on October 10, 2025, Liedtke says female guards raped her during a strip search while male guards watched and laughed.

She also describes repeated strip searches, shackling, physical abuse, and humiliation during five days in Israeli detention.

Liedtke and Drop Site contributor Noa Avishag Schnall recount their detention, assault, and release in a detailed first-person account published by Drop Site News, linked in the reply below.

🎥 Liedtke also spoke with journalist James Jackson about her experience. Watch that clip below.

🇦🇱 ALBANIA MARCHES AGAINST KUSHNER-TRUMP RESORT

Thousands of Albanians took to the streets in a peaceful demonstration opposing the $1.4 billion luxury resort development linked to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner on the country's southern coast.

Kushner and Ivanka Trump's "Zvërnec South Adriatic Development" company is building luxury resorts on Sazan Island and the Zvernec peninsula. The development includes approximately 1,000 beach villas, hotel rooms, and a new international airport.

The site sits within the protected Pishë Poro-Narta wetlandm, one of Albania's most ecologically sensitive areas. 41 environmental organizations from 28 countries have called for immediate suspension of the project. Local residents, environmental groups, and the Greek minority in the area all oppose it.

Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama's government fast-tracked the deal. Parliament changed environmental law weeks before construction began, specifically permitting five-star hotels in protected zones, a law tailored for this project. The permit was issued April 29, 2026, without public release.

Rama granted "strategic investor" status to Kushner's Atlantic Incubation Partners LLC in late 2024, just weeks before Trump's inauguration, without a full business plan or feasibility study. Critics say the decision was politically motivated and aimed at securing goodwill from the incoming Trump administration.

Albanians are telling their government this is not for sale.

If Hezbollah killed 41 Israelis today, the antisemitism industry would describe it as a barbaric and savage massacre.

When Israel kills 41 Lebanese people, they call it a ceasefire.
