VIDEO | 'If the Red Cross comes in and visits [Palestinian] prisoners, the PR catastrophe against the state of Israel is a given.'

The Israeli Knesset voted down a bill during its first reading on Monday that sought to legally prohibit the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) from visiting Palestinian detainees held in Israeli prisons.

Sponsored by Likud MK Galit Distel-Atbaryan, the draft law aimed to circumvent a recent High Court ruling that declared the state’s total ban on Red Cross prison inspections unlawful.

During committee debates leading up to the plenum session, Distel-Atbaryan explicitly warned lawmakers of the damage such visits could inflict on Israel's international image.

If you touch water you are apprehended by police.

If you molest kids with Jeffrey Epstein you are moved to a luxury prison and considered for a pardon.

This is not a normal statement from a normal cabinet member of a major nation. 

This statement from Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir is the statement of a war criminal. 

The racist, extremist Israeli government does not deserve one nickel of U.S. support.

‼️🚨 Critical remote code execution in libssh2, the SSH client library embedded in countless tools: CVE-2026-55200, rated CVSS 9.2 by VulnCheck. Every version up to and including 1.11.1 is affected.

It's an out-of-bounds heap write in ssh2_transport_read(), which fails to bound-check the SSH packet_length field. A malicious or MITM'd SSH server can send oversized packets to corrupt memory and run code on the connecting client.

No known exploitation yet and it's not in CISA's KEV. Fix: move to a build that includes commit 7acf3df (PR #2052), and inventory anything that links libssh2 for SSH, SCP, or SFTP.

While the world continues to speak the language of ceasefire, families in Gaza continue to bury their sons and daughters.

However, if a child is being killed every day, surely the debate is no longer about the quality of the ceasefire. It is about the credibility of calling it one.

According to new estimates, the richest 20% of U.S. earners drove nearly 60% of consumer spending in Q1 of 2026.

Meanwhile, the bottom 80% struggled to keep up with inflation.

That’s bad news for the entire economy. Here’s why.

Israel has killed over 260 journalists and media workers in Gaza and 28 in Lebanon since October 7, 2023.

Irish filmmaker Seán Murray investigates Israel’s killings of journalists in his new feature documentary "Journacide: The War on Truth." He says the term “journacide” applies to Israel’s military actions because of the “explicit nature of the targeting and killing of journalists” as a way to silence the truth. Murray calls it “the Gaza doctrine that is now being applied in Lebanon.”

Não é verdade que Lisboa seja “o único município que, desde 2024, por imposição da esquerda, apoia a refeição de todos os alunos”.

Deixo, entre outros exemplos possíveis, aquilo que diz o Presidente da Câmara Municipa de Paços de Ferreira (PS), com recursos infinitamente menores.

I have fought the neocons and warmongers in Washington for more than 25 years. Throughout, they have tried to silence, discredit, slander, and cancel me. Only recently, however, have they tried to deport me.

At least, that appears to have been the aim of a hit piece in Bari Weiss’s The Free Press, which claimed that Marco Rubio’s State Department was “investigating” me for allegedly seeking to “undermine the U.S.”—presumably because of my opposition to war with Iran.

Yet just hours later, the State Department issued a statement to reporters clarifying that “the State Department has no plans to revoke the green card of Mr. Parsi at this time.” Nor did it provide any confirmation for the central premise of the Free Press story—that an investigation of me existed in the first place.

So here’s what I think happened.

In Gaza, Israel burned both people and land with white phosphorus while much of the world looked away.

Today, the same scenes are unfolding in Lebanon before the eyes of the world, yet meaningful action remains absent.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Nothing to see here.

Just Israel wiping out one of the oldest cities in the world — the ancient city of Tyre in South Lebanon.

[Sam Husseini @samhusseini]

I had asked about this horrific crime by Israel — using drones to broadcast recordings of crying children so they could shoot Palestinians who were lured — when I first saw it reported in Gaza in 2024.

The Biden admin spokesperson saw no evil.

The Trump spokesperson hasn’t had a briefing in almost a year.

Now Israel is reportedly doing it in Lebanon. Video by @decensorednews

Good take by @adam_tooze in the FT.

I think a good analogy to use is this: imagine Saudi Arabia offered to sell their oil wells at 80% off, and you could somehow ship them home. You'd call any leader who refused that deal a complete fool.

Well that's pretty much what China is doing with solar panels.

That's what people fail to understand: there's such intense competition and so much supply in China - the so-called "involution" phenomenon - that it's YOU, as a customer, who's getting subsidized when you buy solar panels. This is literally China paying your energy bill.

And it's like oil wells because, once it's installed, there's no dependency. You buy it once, and for three decades (the average lifespan of a solar panel) you're extracting energy from your own sun, just like an oil well extracts from your own ground. It's one of the most sovereign energy asset you can buy.

The rational response when you see this is to buy as many as you can, as fast as you can. All the more when you're Europe and you have massive energy supply problems (and no solar industry of your own to protect).

But no, we scream "overcapacity" and put up tariffs. We're so deep into geopolitical brainworms that we can't recognize the best deal in the history of energy.

Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write.

🦔Meta put billions of dollars of AI chips inside fabric tents and powered them with its own gas turbines. Five went up outside New Albany, Ohio in two months. The permanent buildings next door took two to three years. Behind-the-meter power at data centers could hit 13 gigawatts by 2027, more than enough to run New York City. All on a $145 billion capex budget.

My Take
Two months for a tent. Two to three years for a building. Meta went with the tents. A few days ago they cut 2,212 people from Menlo Park because the budget had to go toward AI infrastructure. Fabric structures in a field, full of $60,000 chips, with gas turbines next door. The permanent building will come eventually. The people probably won’t.

These tent data centers run on private power because the public grid can’t deliver fast enough. IBM’s CEO said this week the revenue to justify the spending probably doesn’t exist. Broadcom’s CEO said the productivity hasn’t arrived. And Meta’s response is fabric tents on a $145 billion budget. I’ve covered a lot of this industry and I’ve never seen this much money move this fast with this little proof it pays off.

This is INSANE.

AIPAC controls 76% of the members of Congress, regardless of which party they belong to.

There’s def a uniparty, but it looks much different than I could have ever imagined.

I NEVER looked or paid attention to any of this until they took out Thomas Massie.
