You do not want to see this video.

It shows the Iranian elementary school in Minab, southern Iran, after it was bombed for the second time with a Tomahawk cruise missile.

The man in the video is in complete shock and says these are all body parts of the children that were bombed, at one point showing the hand of a child.

Trump still denies responsibility in the killing of 168 schoolchildren.

A deal with the man, who can’t even publicly acknowledge this mistake, is not a deal I can honor.

BREAKING! US court ha suspended the US sanctions against me!
As the judge says: "Protecting the Freedom of speech is always just the public interest".
Thanks to my daughter and my husband for stepping up to defend me, and everyone who has helped so far.

Together we are One.

"Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya" - the media will say is an Iranian group behind arson in London.

-Flyer in Arabic (Iranians use Farsi)
-Group is 2 weeks old
-Refers to Palestine as the "land of Israel"

This is a total fabrication to take EU media eyes away from war crimes

“And the Romans lost to Persians in Battle of Carrhae in 53 BCE. At that moment, the mighty Roman Empire marched east convinced that Persia would collapse under the weight of Roman power.

At Carrhae, the Persian army was commanded by the brilliant general Surena, who understood exactly how to exploit Roman weaknesses.

Instead of engaging in a conventional battle, the Parthian cavalry surrounded the Roman formations and unleashed wave after wave of arrows.

Whenever the archers began to run low on ammunition, camel caravans waiting behind the battlefield delivered fresh supplies. This logistical innovation ensured that the barrage never stopped

Roman soldiers found themselves trapped in a nightmare. Their famous shield formations were designed to withstand brief missile attacks before closing with the enemy.

But at Carrhae the arrows kept coming for hours. Shields were pinned to soldiers’ hands, armour was punctured, and the Roman army gradually lost cohesion.

Crassus had assumed the Persians would eventually exhaust their arrows and be forced into close combat. They never did.

At the end of the battle, thousands of Romans lay dead, thousands more were captured, and Crassus himself was killed during a failed negotiation.

The defeat shattered the myth of Roman invincibility and established Persia as the only power capable of consistently resisting Rome.”

History is always contextual one must learn lessons from it !

Every other post on here is an American being like, “yep, 100% we’re about to experience a false flag attack, there is zero reason or logic to Iran doing something like that”. They are fed up and awake. Meanwhile the Australian govt keeps playing in our faces with bullshit.

Palestinians are so dehumanized that Israel can continue killing them, day after day, and it’s still called a “ceasefire.”

[Ori Goldberg @ori_goldberg]

Gaza has unravelled the world. It isn't Trump and it isn't craziness. It is the thoughtful, rational sentencing of a people to annihilation and the thoughtful, rational facilitation and continuation of this annihilation that have unravelled the world.

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Hello friends. I am Yanis Varoufakis stealing a few of your moments to tear up, in front of you, the invitation to appear in the 2026 Adelaide Writers’ Week to present my new book RAISE YOUR SOUL. I was looking forward to returning to Adelaide for what has been for decades a brilliant festival of books, ideas and debate. No longer. The Zionist Lobby destroyed it. By forcing the Board to disinvite fellow author Randa Abdel-Fattah. By identifying even Bob Carr, the former Premier of NSW and Australia’s former foreign minister, an individual “of concern”. By forcing the Director of Adelaide Writers’ Week, my marvellous, Jewish friend Louise Adler, to resign, they left me with no option other than to tear up my coveted invitation in public. As Louise says, friends and colleagues in the arts, beware of the future. They are coming for you.

🎉Victory! Swiss🇨🇭court rules my detention was illegal, violated Constitution and European Convention on Human Rights:

I’m delighted that the Administrative Court of the Canton of Zurich ruled on 19 December 2025 that my arrest and detention by Zurich police last year was unlawful and violated the Swiss constitution and the European Convention on Human Rights.

This decision, received on 5 January, totally vindicates my position that there was no legal basis whatsoever for me to be abducted off the street by plainclothes officers on 25 January 2025, while I was on my way to speak at an event focused on the Israeli genocide in Gaza.

I was thrown in a cell for three days, without being allowed to contact my family or communicate with the outside world, and then forcibly deported.

These illegal actions ensured that I was unable to participate in public or media events aimed at informing people in Switzerland about the genocide in Gaza and the complicity of Swiss institutions in these ongoing crimes.

The court confirmed that Zurich police violated Swiss law and fundamental constitutional guarantees as well as Article 5, Paragraph 2, of the European Convention on Human Rights – because there was no lawful basis for my detention, no lawful order was ever issued for my detention and I was never provided with valid reasons for my imprisonment or information on how long it would last.

The court has ordered the Canton of Zurich to pay my legal costs for this appeal, and in line with Swiss procedure, I intend to apply for compensation for my unlawful and unconstitutional detention. I will donate any compensation I receive to the direct benefit of survivors and victims of the Israeli genocide.

This clear legal victory concerns only one of the appeals I have filed seeking accountability for these unlawful acts – whose wider purpose, I believe, is silencing and deterring any public discussion of Israel’s crimes against the Palestinian people.

I currently have two more appeals pending before Switzerland’s Federal Administrative Court – one against the entry ban imposed after I arrived in the country legally and another against the expulsion order which was subsequently issued.

I have also filed criminal complaints in connection with this matter.

In November, a Swiss parliamentary committee concluded that there was a series of irregularities surrounding my arrest, and evidence of improper interference by Nicoletta della Valle, a senior federal police official with close ties to Israel.

I thank my lawyers for their diligent pursuit of accountability on my behalf. I thank countless people in Switzerland and all over the world for their support, especially all my colleagues at The Electronic Intifada.

Up to this point, my pursuit of accountability has been supported entirely by donations from the public through a crowdfunding campaign, so I want to thank each and every person who contributed to make this important initial victory possible.

In these days of cowardice and complicity by governments in the face of shocking and monstrous crimes, it is more important than ever that citizens everywhere speak out. It is therefore vital that we fight back fiercely when our right to speak is attacked by government repression.

they are openly torturing gaza, palestine, before the eyes of the world, to eliminate the beating heart of resistance to their relentless exploitation ... do not let them terrify you into silence, do not accept this brutal lesson as the only normal possible timeline into future

Clearly the only reason that a party that's been running in elections for 2 and a half decades is to block a party that's been running for half a decade who's members mocked then for running in elections for most of those 2 and a half decades

BBC News shows footage of flattened ground, part of what used to be Gaza

As you watch this clip remember two things:

1. @Keir_Starmer repeatedly said that Israel has the right to defend itself while Israel was literally flattening Gaza as you see in this footage

2. The UK flew over 500 spy plane flights over Gaza taking photos and videos of everything, which means since Oct 7th both Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer would have seen images of Israel flattening Gaza as we now see shown in this BBC clip

Shameful

[MintPress News @MintPressNews]

President Nicolas Maduro has ordered the mass distribution of rifles across the country to arm the workers against a possible United States invasion.

The arms, he said in a speech, will go "to the coasts, the mountains, cities, villages, plains, hamlets, borders, popular neighborhoods, all in order to defend our rights, our peace, our lives, and our sovereignty."

In 1973, Chilean president Salvador Allende failed to arm the workers in the face of a US-backed coup against him, a decision historians agree was a fatal mistake.

Eight million Venezuelans are part of civilian militias sworn to defend the country from internal or external threats.
