There is a sentence that almost never appears in Western coverage:

Under international law, a people under military occupation have the right to resist that occupation.

This is not a controversial claim.

It is in the United Nations Charter.

It is in the Geneva Conventions.

It has been affirmed repeatedly by the UN General Assembly, explicitly referring to "all available means, including armed struggle."

It is the same principle invoked to describe French resistance to Nazi occupation as heroic rather than terrorist.

It is so uncontroversial that it doesn't need to be stated when applied to almost any other occupied people in history.

When applied to Palestinians, it disappears.

Not because it became false.

Because the people who control which sentences appear in the news made a decision about which populations are permitted to have legally recognized rights that are spoken aloud in prime time.

That decision is political.

The silence around it is also political.

The pretense that both are journalistic is the lie inside the lie.

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Nine minutes of testimonies from both Israeli soldiers and civilians explaining how the IDF killed their own people on October 7.

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

This story is insane.

The Palestinian Bedouin Israeli Yusef Alziadna is widely regarded as a hero in Israel after having saved 30 lives on Oct. 7.

Today, in recognition of his bravery, Israeli security forces arrived at his home with bulldozers & demolished the foundations of his family's home. They also demolished his storage shed & a chicken coop & damaged the area used by his brother’s flock of sheep.

It's not just his own property -- it's the whole neighborhood Israel wants to destroy. 65 demolition orders hang over the homes in the neighborhood. Just a week ago, his nephew got married; shortly before the wedding, he, too, had received a demolition order for his home. When the bulldozers arrived, it turned out that the newlywed had already demolished his own home to avoid a forced demolition.

There is 1 and only 1 reason Israel is trying to wipe Yusef's neighborhood off the map:

Yusef and his family have P-positive DNA. They are Palestinian Arab Bedouin, not Jewish. But Israel is a state for people with J-positive DNA. Jews. That means Israel will do whatever it can to push Yusef, his family and community off their land, because they have the wrong DNA.

Rahat itself was constructed decades ago to force Bedouins off their ancestral lands in the Naqb, into settled communities where they would have no access to land where they could tend to their flocks of goat, sheep, animals, etc.

Today, Yosef was scheduled to give an interview on Reshet Bet and recount once again how he saved... ...many on October 7th. He cancelled the interview. Instead of coming to the studio, he invites people to come to him and see what the bulldozers did in his neighborhood today. https://t.co/k2Pvfw4Gud

Former IDF soldier Edan Alexander got an Oval Office invite from Trump, who claimed credit for freeing the captive "American citizen" from Gaza

But it turns out Alexander was not a US citizen at all

Meanwhile, the Trump admin refuses to help Palestinians with US citizenship seeking an exit from Gaza

why aren’t the robots working in the mines and oil fields and handling toxic chemicals or picking plastic out of the ocean? why are they writing emails and making powerpoint presentations? what the hell are we doing

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

The Trump administration negotiated directly for the release of captive IDF soldier Edan Alexander on the grounds that he was a US citizen

Hamas released the supposed American in exchange for a promise of humanitarian aid which the US broke

I’ve confirmed Alexander is a client of
immigration lawyers who specialize in dealing with the State Dept

A source who’s been in contact with his family tells me the lawyers are working on his naturalization application

One of the lawyers responded affirmatively when I asked him about the naturalization attempt

Which would mean Alexander was never a US citizen, as we were told

Tom Morello (@tmorello) says he didn't vote for Kamala Harris in 2024.

"I saw how the corporate Democrat sausage is made. It is worse than you think. And there is a righteous fury at the corporate-controlled, money-controlled electoral system we have that is absolutely illegitimate. And people cannot choke down voting for a candidate, I understand it, cannot choke down voting for a candidate that's responsible for what happened in Gaza. And they just, they can't do it."

We just released a short film on our investigation into the U.S. bombing of the Minab school in Iran in the opening hours of the war on February 28,2026.

The stories survivors, parents, first responders and others shared with us will forever haunt me.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

🇺🇸 🇵🇸 The Los Angeles Times is running a paid Israeli government tourism campaign featuring a map that completely erases the occupied Palestinian Territories.

The sponsored content, labeled "Paid Program" and produced by the paper's branded content arm, LA Times Studios, is titled "Israel: Land of Creation," and paid for by the official tourism campaign of Israel's Ministry of Tourism. Its map shows a single, borderless Israel from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River, with no West Bank or Gaza, and appears to fold in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights.

No U.S. law bars the ad, but the map contradicts international law. The UN Security Council declared Israel's 1981 annexation of the Golan "null and void," and the International Court of Justice found in 2024 that Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory is unlawful and that states must not recognize it. In the UK, in 2012, an ad regulator banned an Israeli tourism ad for misleadingly implying the West Bank, Gaza and Golan were Israeli.

Drop Site previously reported that the LA Times ran ads promoting tourism in the occupied Golan.

NAOMI KLIEIN to SAM ALTMAN:

"...you ingested the entire written output of human civilization without consent, without compensation and without credit to build a system whose primary commercial application is eliminating the jobs of the people whose work you consumed.

You are not 'liberating human creativity' -- you are strip-mining it and selling it back at a markup while calling the theft 'training data'."

[jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill]

For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026.

At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day.

It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 Nine Americans have been killed in the West Bank since 2022, and the Senate just voted against even asking why...

A 14-year-old from New Jersey was shot 11 times and a Seattle woman was shot in the head, and Chris Van Hollen argued Washington should at least ask why:

"In just over four years, nine American citizens have been killed on the West Bank by violent Israeli settlers or members of the Israeli security forces and there has been zero accountability."

The resolution only asked the State Department for a report, and it still failed 47 to 51, with Rand Paul the lone Republican yes and Fetterman the lone Democratic no.

Refusing to even document how Americans died tells their families Washington would rather not know.

If November flips Congress, this comes straight back, and it should.

An Israeli fan in the stands during Ireland vs Israel says, “We lose at football, but the IDF doesn’t,” — an army that has killed more than 20,000 children in Gaza.

This is what football authorities have allowed into our stadiums and the FAI for allowing this match to go ahead.

The Cornell 7 gang raped a girl and nothing happened to them. Well, it’s not Cornell’s first coverup.
Cornell's 2025 tax return has a line that reads "LEGAL MATTERS: $878,000,000." It's for a Cornell doctor who abused patients, some as young as 13. Cornell admitted to federal prosecutors that it sat on complaints about him for six years. When another hospital asked why he left, his department chair didn't tell them, and HE KEPT ABUSING PATIENTS THERE.

They also hired Paul Weiss law firm, who represented Leon Black. Cornell protects the Epstein class. My daughter has withdrawn her application. I didn’t want her going to your fake Ivy League anyway.
