In my lifetime, China lifted 850 million people out of poverty, while the US created one trillionaire. It is clear as day that socialism is the key to our future.

Iran’s military has released a video of its destruction of yet another U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone.

That’s another $33 million flushed down the military-industrial toilet.

The estimated cost of the Apache helicopter that crashed two days ago is $52 million to $100 million.

Iran is more than 5000 years old. The US 250. Israel 78. Please stop lecturing us on culture, history, and tradition.

Saddam said it decades ago. They're baby killers who crumble against real fighters, then go and hide behind the American war machine.

These days are very very hard unfortunately.

For the first time in my life, I see people with this much despair, tiredness, and exhaustion.

And what everyone is saying is:

How much longer? What is the solution?

We thought the war was over.

Keep your eyes on Gaza and the people of Gaza.

[Sammi Deen Baloch @SammiBaluch]

Mehrab Khalid, a passionate filmmaker and content creator, worked tirelessly to secure admission to the National College of Arts (NCA) Lahore. After years of dedication and hard work, he achieved that dream and is currently in his third semester. Last night, Mehrab was forcibly disappeared along with four of his colleagues. While his friends were released hours later, Mehrab remains missing, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

His enforced disappearance is yet another example of the systematic targeting of Baloch students and youth. At a time when young people should be pursuing their education, creativity, and aspirations, Baloch students continue to face fear, persecution, and enforced disappearance.

Women have this problem because vehicles have been designed around the average male body (representing the 50th percentile man), from seating ergonomics to safety tests. It is a widely documented phenomenon known as the "gender data gap" in engineering. 🙃

Things feel real again. Iran is ready, and so is the world.

THE LAHORE DECLARATION: GUIDED BY ANTI-IMPERIALISM

Iranian scholar and Sovereign Media contributor Dr. Helyeh Doutaghi reflects on the International Anti-Imperialist Conference in Lahore and the limitations of the Western Left's ideological perception in regards to the anti-imperialist struggles of the Global South.

Because of these limitations, Dr. Doutaghi emphasises the importance of the Lahore Declaration, which calls for a firm anti-imperialist orientation and political line to advance the struggle globally against imperialism.

Dr. Doutaghi and @maxajl1 will be hosting "The War on Iran" course on Monday, May 11th through the People's Academy.

Look who’s talking! A monster who patronizes and promotes the rape of Palestinian prisoners — women, men, and children — by Israeli soldiers, prison guards, and dogs.

Humanity’s head hangs in shame.
