It's finally done!
To celebrate getting to 1000 movies watched, here's my top 160!

I initially meant to make it 100, but that turned out to be impossible, barely managed to shave it down to this size
This is a collage of the first 64, feeling good about how it turned out..

Cet automne, pour la première fois depuis 250 ans, ma famille ne récoltera pas d'olives au Liban.

Nos 600 oliviers ont été arrachés du sol par l'armée israélienne, racines comprises, et emportés. Les plus vieux avaient 500 ans !

Cette terre, mon grand-père la tenait de son arrière-grand-père. En deux siècles et demi, ma famille a acheté de la terre. Elle n'en a jamais vendu un mètre, pas un seul jour. Chez nous, on ne construit pas sur la terre. On y plante. Ces arbres ont survécu à plusieurs guerres. Ils ont survécu à tout.

Regardez les deux photos. À gauche, notre terre le 25 juin, la veille de la signature de l'accord entre le Liban et Israël. À droite, la même terre le 20 juillet.

Il ne reste rien. Et c’est justement ça, la preuve. Un incendie laisse des troncs noirs debout. Une frappe laisse des cratères. Ici, pas un tronc calciné, pas une souche, pas un débris. Une terre nue, raclée, griffée par les chenilles des engins. Déterrer un olivier de 500 ans sans le tuer demande des pelleteuses, un savoir-faire, des camions et une destination. Ce n’est pas un dégât de guerre. C’est une opération, sur une terre où il n’y avait ni armes, ni combattants, ni présence militaire. Ma famille n'a jamais été liée de près ou de loin au Hezbollah, et elle ne le sera jamais. Il n'y avait que des arbres, et des gens qui les taillent depuis huit générations.

D'après les témoignages qui nous parviennent, ces arbres auraient été emportés de l'autre côté de la frontière, vers Israël.

L'accord signé entre le Liban et Israël, censé préparer la paix, protège les biens des civils. Je demande simplement qu'il soit appliqué : que le sort des arbres déterrés soit établi, que ceux qui sont encore vivants soient rendus. Si nos arbres sont vivants quelque part, ils peuvent revenir. Je ne cherche pas une vengeance. Je cherche une adresse !

J'ai hésité à écrire ces lignes, pour ne pas provoquer des réactions d'un côté comme de l'autre. Mais je refuse de faire le deuil de ces oliviers. Dans ces arbres vit l'âme de mon grand-père, ancien général de la police libanaise, un homme qui a toujours cru dans la paix, dans les humains et dans la lumière. Il taillait ces arbres à mains nues. Il répétait : “on ne vend pas la terre, on la transmet”
Je lui dois de ne pas me taire.

After having committed the crime of self defense, and been summarily executed for it, 50 more Palestinians were kidnapped & taken hostage for having committed the crime of living in the same town as someone who committed the crime of self defense.

A terrorist known for burning people’s homes down shows up at your door armed with assault rifles. His group has killed 13 people this year alone. You manage to snatch his gun and shoot. The army shows up and kills you. The world sides with the terrorist. Why? You are Palestinian

@ShaKing807 No joke as someone working in the publishing industry in Japan, him saying there is "a ban on AI" truly makes me wonder in what reality he lives, since CEOs are falling over thmselves to throw billions of yen at any con artist pitching them anything with "AI" slapped on top of it

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya ran one of Gaza's last hospitals. He refused to leave his patients even after Israel killed his own son in a drone strike.

Israel kidnapped him for it. 18 months in detention, tortured and beaten, for the crime of running a hospital.

He must be released.

A Chinese research team has for the first time detected radio pulses from a long-term "radio-quiet" young neutron star - central compact objects (CCOs), which is the first successful detection in decades of searches for such objects, providing key evidence for understanding the formation and evolution of young neutron stars (the gravitationally collapsed core of a massive supergiant star), according to National Astronomical Observatories under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC).

🚨 Israeli Plan to Herd Palestinians Into Controlled “Shelters” to Begin “Within A Matter of Weeks”

🔸Israel is preparing to channel Palestinians into fenced “humanitarian shelters” in areas outside Hamas’s control, policed by a foreign force, while its military deepens its occupation of the rest of Gaza, according to the pro-Netanyahu paper Israel Hayom, which reported the plan approvingly.

🔸Under the plan, unarmed civilians would be directed to a first zone in Tel al-Sultan, near Rafah, an area Drop Site has documented Israel systematically razing.

🔸A “multinational force” - the ISF - operating under the Trump administration’s “Board of Peace” would deploy there from a newly built base, equipped to police the zones, while the Israeli military “continues to maintain and deepen its hold” beyond the Yellow Line.

🔸 The camp/base for the force “has already been built,” and the Board of Peace has “begun identifying sites” for logistics warehouses, with the groundwork underway now, and deployment in the coming weeks.

🔸The paper described the effort as a “pincer movement”: the military seizing more territory as the population is siphoned into the controlled zones, in the hope that Hamas is left “without a population, territory or resources.”

🔸Officials said the areas would receive caravans and aid, but not the concrete needed to actually rebuild Gaza.

◽️The plan matches what Drop Site has previously exposed through leaked documents: a surveilled, checkpoint-controlled “planned community” in Rafah designed to force Palestinians into what amounts to an Israeli panopticon, tracked and screened as a condition of receiving aid.

🔸An Israeli political source told the paper the military would keep up “the pace of targeted killings while remaining below the threshold of international criticism… as long as Hamas is unwilling to disarm.”

📸 The buildup is already visible: the “Board of Peace” itself posted images of tactical vehicles arriving at a logistics base on June 30, matching the article’s account of preparations underway.

Their company botched Colombian elections in 2014 and 2022, when 400,000 votes for Petro's party went missing

🚨 REPORT | Britain ignored more than two years of intelligence warning of a “genocidal” massacre in Sudan’s El Fasher to protect its relationship with the United Arab Emirates, leading war crimes investigator Nathaniel Raymond, head of Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab, has told Parliament in a written statement, the Telegraph reports.

Key Details:

🔸Raymond testified to the House of Commons International Development Committee that his team gave UK officials real-time intelligence as the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces besieged the city, which fell last October.

🔸 He said officials “prioritized” Britain’s “economic, security, and diplomatic relationships with the UAE above preventing the intentional starvation, forced displacement, and the genocidal slaughter of tens of thousands of civilians.”

🔸 Yale’s analysis estimates at least 60,000 people may have been killed within weeks of the city’s fall, a toll Raymond noted was about six times that of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide.

🔸 As the UN Security Council “penholder” leading on Sudan, Britain had “more than sufficient” intelligence to act, he said, including sanctioning UAE officials to cut “the clandestine UAE pipeline of advanced weaponry flowing to the RSF.”

🔸 Raymond also said that in May 2024, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) officials asked his university lab, rather than British intelligence, to publicly release intercepted phone data linking the UAE to the RSF, because Britain faced “significant private pressure” from Abu Dhabi.

🔸 He explained that the RSF briefly paused its assault after a UN resolution, on Abu Dhabi’s instruction, to gauge whether there would be consequences. When the UAE faced no further consequences, the attack resumed.
The failure, he said, spanned two governments, covering Foreign Secretaries David Cameron, David Lammy, and Yvette Cooper.

@DropSiteNews Considering all the cases of voter fraud that have already come out, it seems like Hondurasgate in fact did its job

Até o momento o socialismo foi o sistema mais potente que a humanidade já desenvolveu. A URSS em menos de 10 anos construiu o maior exército do mundo para derrotar a maior potência militar europeia. Após toda a destruição da guerra, em menos de 4 anos toda a produção já estava nos níveis pré-guerra e o país se desenvolvendo fortemente em todas as áreas, desenvolvendo uma bomba atômica em 1949 (sozinhos) e mandando o homem para o espaço na década seguinte. O país saiu do mais atrasado e agrário da Europa para uma das maiores potências mundiais em todos os aspectos em menos de 30 anos e com uma guerra no meio que matou 26 milhões da sua população e destruiu toda a área mais desenvolvida do país. Não tem como negar, capitalismo nunca conseguiria isso. Tudo isso feito sem explorar o país de ninguém

It’s even more crazy how Iran fired thousands of “cheap” drones and missiles at several countries from thousands of miles away but not once accidentally hit a school, a university or a hospital.

It’s almost like their goal was defense & deterrence -not terror & ethnic cleansing.

[Nassim Nicholas Taleb @nntaleb]

Today in Haaretz there is an article accusing Israel of being a terrorist state (plus committing crimes against humanity). It was not written by a Marxist member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
It was written by former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert.

[Tamer Nahed @Tamer_Alnoaizy]

A very dangerous new nightmare we are living in Gaza City, and no one in the world is paying attention to it.

Days ago, the Israeli army installed huge military cranes, each about 30 meters tall, on the eastern areas it controls. These cranes are equipped with machine guns and cameras, and they fire randomly and almost continuously at tents, streets, and exposed neighborhoods.

Gaza City is extremely narrow, only 10 kilometers wide. A single crane at that height is enough to expose the entire city from east to west. Every street, every square, every tent, every house has become completely exposed. There is no place to hide, and not a single moment of safety.

In just the past two days, three people were killed by fire from these cranes. One of them was sitting quietly with his father in a small café, trying to breathe for a few minutes. Hours later, a 5year old girl was killed while playing near her home.

These cranes have turned the entire city into an open field. The latest military technologies are directed at civilians. We have become an open testing ground for their new weapons. The horror is not just in the sound… it is the constant feeling of being an exposed target at all times, where even children cannot run in the street without fear.

[The Hormuz Letter @HormuzLetter]

BREAKING: Iran says the US has agreed to pay $300 billion in reconstruction funds directly to Iran as part of the deal Pakistan announced, alongside the release of $24 billion in frozen funds with $12 billion released before negotiations even start, per Mehr News.

This directly contradicts Trump's & Vance's claim that no funds will be transferred to Iran at all.

If Trump denies this is true, there never was a deal. If Trump confirms, the US has fully capitulated to Iran's demands.
