@spectatorindex Another wave. Iron Dome + allies will intercept most, but the volume matters. Oil already jumping, markets nervous. Classic cycle: strike → retaliation → exhaustion → eventual talks. Question is how much damage first.

BREAKING: Israeli airstrikes hit the Karun Petrochemical Complex in Khuzestan Province, Iran, causing reported damage, per Fars News. Iran had previously warned that any attack on its energy infrastructure would trigger waves of ballistic missiles targeting Gulf energy assets. In response, Iran and the Houthis launched coordinated ballistic missile attacks toward Israel, with reports of impacts in Tel Aviv and Haifa areas. Rescue teams dispatched to Kiryat amid possible injuries. Due to censorship, limited footage is emerging. Yemen’s Armed Forces Spokesman announced a full naval blockade on Israel in the Red Sea, declaring all Israeli maritime activity as legitimate military targets. The move responds to US-Israeli actions against Iran, Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq, and Yemen, with operations set to escalate. First and second footages are from Iran and third and fourth are from impacts in Israel. Developments ongoing.

Israeli strikes that killed Reuters video journalist Issam Abdallah and injured six other journalists cannot be dismissed as a “mistake.” Why did Israeli forces attack a clearly identifiable group of journalists in southern Lebanon. https://t.co/3vOKPLRKBv

This is something people pointing to China's demographic decline often forget: for the next few years - at least until the late 2030s (if not early 2040s) - the number of people entering the workforce in China is set to INCREASE, not decrease. For instance do you know which years recorded the highest birth rates in China in the 21st century? It was, in order, 2012 (14.57 births per thousand), 2014 (13.83) and 2016 (13.57). (src: https://t.co/cTotmhsxLj) This results in the fact that, as you can see in the age pyramid below 👇, the 10-14 age cohort (kids born in 2012-2016) is actually **larger** than the 3 cohorts preceding it. 2016 kids - for instance - will reach 18 in 2034, and those studying at university (the majority of them) will reach the workforce at the very end of the 2030s, and the early 2040s. The only cohort that's really dramatically shrunk compared to others is the 0-4 one, meaning China will really only start to have significant significant drops in workforce entrants in the late 2040s.

When the President of France visited the United States in April 1960, he asked the FBI to help him find a man. The man he was looking for was an American citizen. He was sixty-four years old. He had been awarded fifteen French military decorations and — six months earlier, in a ceremony in Paris — had been made a Knight of the Légion d'honneur, the highest civilian honor France can give. The medal had been pinned to his chest by the President himself, who had publicly called him un véritable héros français. A true French hero. The FBI located the man within a few days. He was operating an elevator at Rockefeller Center in New York City. The elevator operator's name was Eugene Bullard. He had been born in Columbus, Georgia, in 1895, the son of a man whose own father had been a slave. He had run away from Columbus at the age of eleven, after watching a white mob nearly lynch his father. He spent the next several years drifting through the American South. At sixteen, he stowed away on a German freighter at Norfolk, Virginia. He landed in Aberdeen, Scotland. From there he made his way to London, where he learned to box. By 1913, at eighteen, he was prizefighting in Paris. When Germany invaded France in August 1914, Bullard was nineteen years old. He had no legal obligation to fight. He had no French citizenship. He went to the recruiting office on October 19, 1914, and signed up for the French Foreign Legion. He spent the next eighteen months as an infantryman in some of the worst fighting of the war — at the Somme, at Champagne, at Verdun. He was wounded three times. The third wound, on March 5, 1916, tore open his thigh and left him with permanent damage to his leg. He was twenty years old. The doctors told him he would not return to the infantry. He decided he wanted to fly. In a Paris café in the spring of 1916, while he was recovering, Bullard mentioned to three white American friends that he was thinking of joining the French air service. A Mississippian named Jeff Dickson laughed. Gene, Dickson said, you know damn well there aren't any Negroes in aviation. Bullard answered: Sure do. That's why I want to get into it. There has to be a first to everything, and I'm going to be the first. Dickson bet him two thousand dollars he would not make it. Bullard took the bet. He earned his pilot's license on May 5, 1917. He won the bet. He reported to the front in August 1917 and flew approximately twenty combat missions over the next three months in a SPAD VII. The fuselage was painted with a bleeding heart pierced by a knife and the French phrase Tout le Sang qui Coule est Rouge — All Blood that Flows is Red. He carried, on every combat flight, a small capuchin monkey named Jimmy in the front of his flight jacket. The French press began calling him L'Hirondelle Noire — the Black Swallow. When the United States entered the war in 1917, Bullard immediately applied to transfer to the U.S. Army Air Service. His application was rejected. The U.S. Army Air Service had a policy, in 1917, of not accepting Black pilots. The other American pilots flying for France in his unit, all of them white, were transferred to the U.S. Air Service. He was the only one who was not. For the next twenty years, he was one of the most familiar faces in the Montmartre nightlife of Paris between the wars. He owned a nightclub called L'Escadrille. He spoke fluent French, English, and German. Hemingway drank there. Fitzgerald drank there. Langston Hughes drank there. Josephine Baker performed there. Louis Armstrong was a personal friend. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Bullard was forty-four. His fluent German and his ownership of a nightclub frequented by German officers made him useful to the French Resistance. He became an intelligence agent — eavesdropping in his own bar on conversations between German officers who did not know he understood every word. When France fell in June 1940, friends in the Resistance smuggled him across the Spanish border before the Gestapo could arrest him. He came back to the United States for the first time in twenty-eight years. He arrived in New York with thirty dollars in his pocket and a permanent limp. He did not return to a hero's welcome. He returned to a country that had no idea who he was. He worked at a perfume counter. He worked as a security guard. He worked at the Staten Island shipyards. By the late 1940s, he had taken the job that he would hold for most of the rest of his life. He operated the elevator at Rockefeller Center. He was wearing the elevator uniform on the day a producer from NBC came down from the studios upstairs to ask if he was the man Charles de Gaulle had been looking for. A few weeks later, NBC sent a film crew to interview him in the lobby. The studios where NBC produced The Today Show were on the floors above. He had operated the elevator that took the network executives up to those studios every morning for nearly ten years. He had not been recognized as he did it. He went back to operating the elevator the following Monday. He died of stomach cancer on October 12, 1961, three days after his sixty-sixth birthday. He was buried in the French War Veterans' section of Flushing Cemetery, in Queens, in the uniform of the French Foreign Legion. The casket was draped with the French flag. In 1994 — thirty-three years after his death — the United States Air Force formally commissioned Eugene Jacques Bullard as a Second Lieutenant, posthumously. It was the first commission the U.S. military had ever offered him. He had been the first Black combat pilot in American history. The French had been calling him a hero since 1917. The Americans got around to it in 1994.

In this powerful lecture, Said argues that Arabs have a significantly longer history of continuous residence in the region, far exceeding the period of ancient Israelite rule.

Israel is not a Jewish state; Israel is a perverted Zionist state. Israeli leaders never represent the Jewish people; Zionist leaders are murderers, genocidal perverts. We demand the return of all occupied Palestinian territories to the Palestinians. Before the emergence of Zionism and before the establishment of Israel, Jews and Muslims lived peacefully as neighbors in the Ottoman Empire. They would visit each other's homes, offer hospitality, and look after each other's children. It is the Zionists who sow the seeds of hostility and destroy this atmosphere of peace. We openly call upon the Turkish state to liberate Palestine from the Zionists. Jews will be safer and more peaceful in the holy lands under the control of the Turkish state.

How did we get to this?! 1- Iran and the US signed a ceasefire deal. Israel started attacking southern Lebanon and demolishing homes and infrastructure. 2- Hezbollah started retaliating using a new weapon, fiber optic FPV drones. Israel could not find a solution to it, causing its army daily losses. Hebrew media and Israeli officials suggested the Biden administration’s “solution” of “military pressure,” which means massacring civilians en masse to force Hezbollah to stop attacking the Israeli army with FPV drones. This worked in Gaza. Hamas chose to release the Israeli army prisoners of war for a promise from the US that no massacres would be committed against civilians in Gaza and that the manufactured famine would end, despite the US and Israel spending over 2 years searching for those prisoners of war in tiny, besieged, heavily surveilled Gaza and failing. 3- Israel, on Sunday, June 7, tested the waters by bombing a building with no significance in Beirut for the sole purpose of testing the waters: 1- If Hezbollah and Iran do not retaliate to this building in Beirut, it means they are scared and Israel can carry out its “military pressure,” AKA large massacres against civilians, as a desperate solution for Hezbollah FPV drones. 2- Iran will retaliate to the bombing of Beirut, and in this case no one knows how it will end. And that’s where we are at: Iran retaliated to the bombing of Beirut, Israel just attacked Iran…. Iran likely will retaliate. 4- Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, and Bahrain have all allowed the US to supply fuel and other logistical supplies to Israel from US bases in their territories, and Israel also used their airspace which makes them a side with Israel and the US in this war. 5- The ceasefire in Gaza update: massacres have not stopped despite Hamas releasing the Israeli army prisoners of war and committing to the “ceasefire”… and just today, Israel and the US shut down all crossings into Gaza, which means another famine is on the horizon. Photo: unrelated, maybe of an Al-Qassam Ghoul sniper in Gaza.
