Trump has literally done nothing this entire second term except rename things for no reason, enrich himself & his Epstein pals, get us into a war heโs too stupid to get out of, and spend our money on shitty renovations nobody asked for. Thatโs literally it. Pathetic.
This is not about a threat to life. It is about children.
One bullet to the heart, and a family is shattered, a future is lost, and hope is gone.
Israel continues to target childrenโthis time inside a UN facility. In 1,000 days, Israel has killed around 25,000 children in the ME.
A message from Palestine
โThey killed my wife. They killed my two sons. They killed my parents and my only brother. My only brother with his whole family.โ
BREAKING: Israel just bombed a water desalination plant in northern Gaza.
Not a military base.
An essential infrastructure built to provide water to civilians suffering through an extreme water crisis.
Gaza is running out of water.
This is an act of genocide.
The Epstein class, recognizing that the U.S. empire is in terminal decline, is ramping up its anti-Communism rhetoric.
They know that Communist revolution is the biggest threat to their Epstein-led global empire.
This is exactly why you should be a Communist.
I donโt know who needs to hear this but a free country doesnโt have a reason to track their own citizens with a dystopian level mass digital surveillance dragnet.
Trump's forces are stationed in every family-run regime in the Persian Gulf. We are at war and there is no ceasefire. These regimes shelter our enemy, the killers of our children and our leaders. When the hour comes, do not forget this.
Karbala was not a defeat.
This must be understood. Without understanding this, you cannot understand anything about why Iran fights the way it fights, with the commitment it has, in the face of what it faces.
In 680 CE, Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet, took a small group of seventy-two companions and family members to stand against the army of Yazid at a plain called Karbala. He knew he was going to lose. He knew most of them would die. His companions knew it too. He gave them every opportunity to leave. Some did. Most stayed.
They fought. They fell. Hussein was killed. His head was taken. The women and children were taken prisoner.
By every conventional measure: a defeat. A massacre.
And that defeat has been burning in the hearts of hundreds of millions of people for nearly fourteen hundred years.
Not as a wound to be avenged and then forgotten. As a permanent reference point. As the axis around which a certain understanding of justice and resistance and the willingness to stand for truth regardless of the odds has organized itself for fourteen centuries.
When an Iranian soldier goes to war, he understands himself in relation to Karbala. When an Iranian martyr falls, he understands his fall in relation to Karbala. When the movement suffers losses, it understands those losses in relation to Karbala.
The defeat at Karbala became the spiritual engine of a resistance tradition that has not stopped running since.
The empire has no historical reference point that functions like this. It has no equivalent depth of motivational infrastructure. It has soldiers who are paid and trained and equipped.
Iran has soldiers who believe. These are not the same thing.
The Vietnamese dead did not die to change the global economic system.
They did not die for capitalism or socialism in the abstract.
They died for the specific, particular, irreplaceable thing of this land being ours.
These rivers. These mountains. These rice fields that our grandparents worked and our grandchildren will work.
The right to govern ourselves badly if we choose to govern ourselves badly.
The right to make our own mistakes.
The right to have our own arguments about our own future without a foreign army deciding the outcome.
That is what they died for.
And that is what they have.
The global economic system is still powerful. Capital still flows according to logic that was not designed in Hanoi. Vietnam still navigates pressures it did not choose.
And the French are not here.
And the Americans are not here.
And on the graves of three million Vietnamese dead, that is not a partial victory or a complicated victory or a victory undermined by subsequent economic history.
That is the victory.
Exactly the victory that was fought for.
Exactly the victory that was won.
Do not let the scale of what remains unsolved erase the magnitude of what was actually achieved.
They fought for their land.
They have their land.
That sentence, after everything, is not a small sentence.
It is everything.
