I think therefore you should.

My thoughts on the IDF soldier smashing the statue of Jesus in Lebanon

Firstly, one soldier's action does not represent the entire army.

Remember Abu Ghraib prison in 2004? Similar examples exist for each and every army

However, this news came hours after Haaretz published a shocking report on atrocities commited by the IDF in Gaza, including soldiers pissing on blindfolded detainees, tying cables around their genitals, and killing unarmed civilians

And last month, Netanyahu celebrated when charges were dropped against IDF soldiers captured on camera beating a Palestinian detainee (dragging him, stomping on him, breaking his ribs, puncturing a lung) and stabbing him in the buttocks with a sharp object

Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the country, called these evil criminals that tortured a man in unspeakable ways, “heroic fighters”

When reports of the Abu Ghraib torture came out, President Bush called the abuses “disgraceful” and said he was “deeply disgusted.”

Notice the difference between both leaders?

Among 1,260 complaints betweem 2017–2021 about Israeli soldiers harming Palestinians, only 11 led to indictments

In Gaza, despite hundreds of abuse complaints and mass atrocities committed, there were only 3 indictments and 1 conviction.

Israel as a country operates in a perpetual mindset of survival, and America's unconditional support has created a sense of impunity for their leaders. We are seeing this impunity among their armed forces

Change starts at the top, but unfortunately in Israel today, the top is the problem.

Joseph Kent, a top counterterrorism official under Trump, just resigned.

Kent and I don't agree on much, but he is right:

"Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby."

[Omar El Fares 🇵🇸 عُمَر الفارس @3lfares]

Bitch you started the war

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.  Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.

I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

[Ricardo Karam ريكاردو كرم @RicardoRKaram]

وضعت القاضية غادة عون نقطة النهاية لرحلة طويلة من العمل القانوني في أكثر الدول فساداً وانقساماً. خطّت رسالة الوداع بدموع الفراق وألم الحسرة على أهلها المحكومين من دولة عميقة امتصّت جنى أعمارهم وقضت على أحلامهم.
وبهذا، ينطفئ صوتٌ من أصوات الحقيقة في دهاليز السلطة. تجرّأت القاضية غادة عون، رغم الهجمات والعراقيل والعداوات، على طرح الأسئلة التي طالما خشي الكثيرون طرحها. أين ذهبت أموال الشعب؟ من نهب مدّخرات المتقاعدين والمعلّمين والعسكريين والعاملين الشرفاء؟ من أين لك هذا أنت "ملّا إنت"؟
إنّ إحالة القاضية عون إلى التقاعد هو انتصارٌ للفاسدين، وهزيمةٌ لأولئك الذين ما زالوا يؤمنون بالعدالة.
اليوم، يبتهج الفاسدون وشركاؤهم بصمت. فقد اختفى العائق الذي كانت تُمثّله تلك القاضية النزيهة، وزال معه الخوف من أن يطالَهم الحساب يوماً. وفي كواليس القصور والمصارف، تنفّس هؤلاء الصعداء، بل وفتحوا زجاجات الشمبانيا احتفالاً بفكرة أنَّ العدالة قد خسرت إحدى أشدّ محارباتِها ضراوةً. ومن جهةٍ أخرى, تلقّى المواطنون الشرفاء وكل المؤمنين بسيادة القانون النبأَ كضربة قاسية. فقد رأوا في ذلك خسارة هائلة للعدالة وللوطن بأسره.
لا شكّ أنّ القاضية عون كانت مثيرةً للجدل، ولكن الجوهر كان أهمّ من الشكل. لقد أزعجت أصحاب النفوذ، وهزّت النظام القائم، وواجهت منظومةً متجذّرةً في ثقافة الإفلات من العقاب. معركتها لا تتوقّف هنا، فالحقيقة لا تعرف التقاعد.
تحيّة إجلالٍ لقاضية أعادت بشجاعتها ونزاهتها إشعال شعلة الأمل. سيبقى اسمُها مرادفاً للصمود في وجه الظلم، ويُشكّلُ تنحيّها نهاية فصلٍ من الحكاية بلا شكّ، لكنه بالتأكيد ليس نهاية المعركة من أجل لبنان عادلٍ ونزيه. تغادرُ القاضيةُ غادة عون منصّةَ القضاء، لكن معركة الحقيقة والعدالة لا تزال مستمرّة.
وهنا أستحضر فيروز في دور زنوبيا وهي تواجه الإمبراطور الروماني أورليانوس الذي حطّم أحلامها مرددةً لشعبها:
"قولوا للشُّعرا يكمّلوا الأشعار
قولوا للثُّوار يضلّهُن ثوّار
المملكة تِدمُر انتهِتْ مِن الأرض
صارِتْ بالقلوب صارِت بالمَدار
صارِت الصّرخة وصارِت النّار
أورليانوس عجّل خدني على روما
عليِت الصّرخة كبرِت على المَوت
لا عسكرَك أورليانوس ولا قوّة روما
ولا كلّ روما بالدّهر بتسكِّت هالصَّوت".

@omar_mou3awiya What the name of the documentary , at the end of the video

[Suppressed News. @SuppressedNws]

⚡️BREAKING: The information of more than 35,000 Mossad agents has been leaked.

[Link to leak in first reply]

A channel called Mediterranean Man claims to have obtained classified Israeli data, including personal information of IDF, Mossad, Shin Bet, and other Israeli security personnel.

A test was done on a random name from the leak, identifying it as Colonel Moshe Tetro, the Israeli Defense Attaché to Benelux, NATO, and the EU, along with his personal contact details.

According to what was shared, this information is authentic.

ICC just issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, the Israeli terrorist that our treasonous politicians pledge allegiance to on a daily basis

[Alex Barnicoat @AlexBarnicoat_]

@IranObserver0 Iran needed to do this.

The world has been laughing at them for the last 2 months, with them saying they will respond and nothing happen.

Finally, they may get their reputation back.

“Sends troops” makes it sound like they were invited. It’s an invasion.

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

I think we’ve become too desensitized…

We don’t see that this was someone’s home…

Their bed, their special clothes, their carefully selected items that made up their lives…

Someone’s grandmother, or sister or uncle…

War is such a waste.
