The situation unfolding right now is the perfect example of why the majority of the American people have either outright rejected or are at least requestioning the US-Israeli relationship.

Currently, there is an obvious divergence between the US interests and the goals of the Israeli government.

We desperately need a deal to end this disastrous war and save the global economy. Trump obviously wants that at this point and has already said Israel was forbidden from attacking Lebanon. (You may recall every pro Israel account on here claiming this as proof that Trump calls the shots). The ceasefire that the President of the United States of America wants depends on Israel not attacking southern Lebanon.

So, Israel announces they’re doing it. The best Trump can say is no boots on the ground and he won’t even hold on that.

This is a country whose very survival let alone ability to conduct any of these elective wars is completely dependent on US tax payer money, and support. We unconditionally support them even as they undermine our nation.

This is beyond intolerable. You can call all of us every name in the book but it’s just too obvious.

You are not “anti-Semitic” for criticizing the government of Israel for committing genocide in Gaza. You are a good person.

[Dave Smith @ComicDaveSmith]

The same people who say October 7th justifies killing 100,000 people, can’t possibly fathom how anyone else could use the slaughter of their people to justify killing anyone.

The Iran war lobby and the Trump admin are about to pull out every stop in the book to destroy Joe Kent

Very important that we fight for him

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

Massive respect for this. Joe Kent thought he had joined an administration that would steadfastly avoid -- rather than recklessly start -- Middle East wars of choice of the kind in which he fought and which killed his wife.

He thought that because Trump repeaedly said it.

We get to choose between two sides, and both support pedophilia and genocide 🫠

[Dave Smith @ComicDaveSmith]

Imagine that you knew someone who still believed that our government acts based on what is in the best interest of the American people. Think about how naive that would be.

Now, imagine believing that our government act is in the interest of the Iranian people.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

If you are wondering why shit keeps getting worse it is because both parties serve the same capitalist and imperialist system. All elections do is put a different face on the same system that is screwing us all over. The only way to break this cycle is a working class revolution.

I could go on with the list of proven lies my Govt has told Americans and the world to provoke new wars, get a sucker nation to fight proxy wars for them, or just directly illegally attack other countries themselves, but I wanted to keep it to after 2000

Today marks two years since the genocide in Gaza began. More than half a million Palestinians have been slaughtered by Israeli state terrorism yet both parties of U.S. imperialism continue to back this modern-day holocaust.

Democratic and Republican politicians in the U.S. Congress have provided over $21 billion to Israel to carry out these horrors, first under President Biden, who presided over the genocide for 15 months, and now under President Trump. 

The brutal mistreatment of courageous activists on the Global Sumud Flotilla, including Greta Thunberg and Amazon union leader Chris Smalls, detained and assaulted by Israeli forces, has been met with deafening silence by Democrats, including progressives like AOC and Bernie Sanders. My opponent, Democratic Congressmember Adam Smith, has also remained silent, not surprisingly. Smith has called antiwar activists “left-wing fascists” and demanded they be arrested. He has voted again and again to fund the genocide and to repeatedly block United Nations food aid to Gaza, despite overwhelming evidence of catastrophic mass starvation in Gaza.

The Democratic Party has not a shred of credibility left. Instead of “never again,” the Democrats have voted again and again to fund the Gaza holocaust. As recently as July, 207 Democrats, including Adam Smith and AOC, voted to fund Iron Dome, which is part of the weapons apparatus that has allowed the Israeli state to act with impunity with its onslaught against Gaza as well as other nations in the region, including Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran.

We need a new party for working and oppressed people in the United States. A party that will base itself on militant mass movements, on mass strike action, and mass civil disobedience to end this genocide and to fight unambiguously for working people and the oppressed against the billionaires and their rotten system.

My independent socialist campaign for Congress is calling for an immediate end to all U.S. funding to the Israeli state, an end to the occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, an end to the apartheid system in Israel, and an end to both genocidal parties of the U.S. billionaire class.

We need a global intifada — a mass uprising against this violent capitalist system — on a working-class basis. The Palestinian intifadas began in 1987 as a series of uprisings against the Israeli occupation. During these intifadas, Palestinians fought back with mass protests, civil disobedience, and strike action in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank. This resistance has been met with brutality by the Israeli state backed to the hilt by American imperialism.

We need an intifada of the millions which follows the historical example set by the Palestinian masses, and the example being set now by the Italian working class. These are examples of broad unity and militant working-class action against the genocide and occupation. We need general strikes that will shut down the economy, the ports, and the capitalist system as a whole until our demands are met.

Some hope that Trump’s latest “peace plan” could end the massacre. But history tells us that the Israeli state plans to carry through its plan of mass murder and ethnic cleansing to the end, unless they are stopped by a mass international antiwar movement. The Israeli state itself was created as a bulwark for Western imperialism. It acts as a force against regional working-class movements and on behalf of the capitalist class, which also includes the uber-wealthy individuals in nations such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt.

The only way out of this cycle of genocide, war, poverty, and climate catastrophe is to end capitalism itself. That’s why I’m a revolutionary socialist.

Bari Weiss' big announcement of her move to Paramount and takeover of CBS News -- made on the main YouTube channel of the Free Press -- has a grand total of 16,000 views after 8 hours.

The good news is it's their most-watched video since she interviewed the Mossad 2 weeks ago.

[Fiorella Isabel @FiorellaIsabelM]

We live in such a fucked up world that while children die & food/aid is targeted, this moron who doesn’t even know how to explain her insults aka “toadie”, becomes Editor in Chief of a major network because she’s a Zionist bootlicker. That’s when you know collapse is imminent.

Bernie Sanders slit the throat of any burgeoning leftist movement in this country and should be shamed out of public life. He’s a sheepdog for the status quo. Not sure anyone in modern politics has done more damage to a people’s movement than this schmuck. Fuck him.
