🎥 “You leave right now or you die.”
Israeli soldiers went door to door in the border village of Ain Arab, forcing residents from their homes at gunpoint, journalist Lylla Younes reports in her latest Drop Site investigation.
The forced expulsion of Ain Arab was a striking example of the Israeli military’s campaign to ethnically cleanse villages across southern Lebanon, with an estimated 60 villages completely destroyed south of the “Yellow Line” Israel declared on April 19, barring residents from ever returning.
Younes said it is emblematic of what Israel is doing across the south:
“There isn’t any sort of discernible calculus here besides mass destruction and mass instability really and mass punishment of a people.”

Yesterday, Marco Rubio announced new restrictions targeting Cuban organizations, further limiting who Americans can meet with while traveling to Cuba.
Americans can travel freely to countries with one-party systems, monarchies, mass incarceration, political prisoners, or severe human rights abuses. Yet when it comes to Cuba, Washington tells us where we can travel, which hotels we can stay in, and now even which organizations we can meet with. All in the name of “democracy.”
Leave Cuba alone. End the blockade.

Now we know why Peter Thiel packed his bags for Argentina.
Milei just submitted his AI legislative framework to Congress, where he proposes:
- zero regulation on AI development,
- a brand-new "non-human corporation" category for AI/robot-operated entities with limited liability
-a low-tax regime with flexible governance rules.
The Dutch East India Company gave the world the limited liability company in 1602. Milei wants Argentina to do the same for autonomous AI agents in 2026.
Peter Thiel said Pope Leo was the antichrist for wanting to regulate A.I. He bought a mansion in Buenos Aires and met Argentine president Javier Milei. Now Milei in FT pitches Argentina as the home of unregulated A.I., creating a new legal framework, the “nonhuman corporation”.
If 9 Israelis had been burnt alive yesterday, they’d have called it a barbaric & savage antisemitic massacre.
When Israel burns alive 9 Palestinians to death, they call it a ceasefire.
There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths children.
Call it what it is: GENOCIDE.
Newly declassified CIA memorandum dated August 7, 1968, is an absolute bombshell from the 2025 National Archives release, exposing undeniable foreknowledge of the assassination of Senator Robert Kennedy, that the CIA completely sat on and hid from the FBI for months. The file documents an American consultant, J. Christian Kinney, who in Somalia reported that rumour on May 18, 1968, a full 18 days before RFK was shot in Los Angeles. He was chilling at the Phoenicia Hotel bar in Beirut when a man named Joseph Strong casually asked if he’d heard that Robert Kennedy had been assassinated. The CIA's own background checks reveal Strong was no random gossiper; he was the Middle East Sales Manager for Raytheon, a massive defense giant handling highly classified surface radar systems, holding deep clearances vetted by the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), the FBI, and the State Department. When the FBI was finally clued in months later and interrogated Strong, he admitted he got the news on a first-class flight from Rome, where an elite international airline manager named Said Abdel-Malek was reading a foreign, Arabic-language newspaper already printing "rumors" of RFK's death. This means the man who caught the leak was a thoroughly vetted, ONI-cleared military-industrial insider traveling along a high-level diplomatic corridor, and the CIA actively tracked this by running detailed background checks, stamping the dossier "SECRET," and logging the intelligence. The fact that a top defense contractor and an international airline executive were passing an explicit, highly accurate notice of Kennedy's upcoming execution through the espionage capital of the Middle East proves this information was actively running through intelligence-linked world communities, showing the global gears of the national security apparatus were plugged into the plot weeks before a single trigger was pulled in Los Angeles and completely blowing the "lone wolf" theory out of the water. Crazy.

Came across yet another military history book with the Vegetius epigraph "Who desires peace, must prepare for war" (Si vis pacem, para bellum). An MIC favorite too, belied by experience. When you're all too prepared for war, you'll eventually desire a war, or wars.
Bolivia general strike: Workers in Santa Cruz region have been resisting police & paramilitary attack for the past three hours and counting.
The barricades on highway around San Julián were lifted by armed groups, but workers have re-establisbed new ones. Cat & mouse strategy.
Bolivian police have arrested indigenous women's leader & ex-senator Simona Quispe. She was grabbed off the street by men in civilian clothes, thrown in an unmarked vehicle and taken to unknown location.
The general strike against neoliberalism continues, despite the repression.
CORRECTION: Israel plans major settlement push across occupied West Bank https://t.co/1MGC3gNXdo
We will delete a post that referenced Israel’s latest settlement push as being seen by many as illegal; Israel’s settlements in the occupied West Bank are deemed illegal under international law
Breaking: After Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s legal team appealed his arbitrary detention, Israeli authorities transferred him on 3 June 2026 from Naqab Prison to solitary confinement in Nafha as a punitive measure. The move comes amid harsh conditions and denial of medical treatment.
The Israeli Defense Ministry is training 320 "influence experts" per year on using deepfakes, psycohological warfare, propaganda, and deception. Some of the courses specifically focus on how to conduct influence operations in the US.
On Saturday, while covering a protest at Delaney Hall for the AP, Angelina Katsanis' camera bag went missing.
Inside was $10K worth of gear, her biz cards and an Airtag -- which soon began to ping from home of a NJ sergeant. He's now facing charges.
