It is not about tourism; acquiring land along the #Albanian coastline is merely a cover for a project to control the most critical ports and waterways leading into the heart of Europe. What is unfolding is an attempt to secure an alternative to Russian gas, establishing a maritime route to transport gas from anywhere in the Middle East, through #Israel, and into Europe.
A professor in the U.S. was suspended for mentioning Palestinians, just days after Hasan Piker was barred from the UK for condemning a genocide.
Your rights are being stripped away in service of Israel’s impunity.
The earlier Killing fields in the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsula:
1. New details from soldiers' testimonies on Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity in the 1967 war: massacring civilians, killing children, executing prisoners, displacing civilians, and looting.
Self-proclaimed supporters of Ukrainians in fact support Zelensky regime & proxy war to the last Ukrainian:
"‘Strong support’ for excluding fighting-age men from EU’s Ukraine refugee scheme. “That’s also what the Ukrainians want us to do,” said Migration Commissioner Magnus Brunner. A proposal to exclude men aged 23 to 60, who may be conscripted, from the scheme is being discussed."
In 1989, Garcia Marquez, who most learn about as the novelist of “magical realism,” contributed an essay to a book called Changing the History of Africa: Angola and Namibia. It seems to be available on no sites, anywhere…funny what the ruling class promotes and keeps hidden.
Peace activist Rachel Corrie, crushed to death in Gaza in 2003 by an Israeli army bulldozer destroying sections of Rafah city, wrote in her diary:
“I just want to write to my mom and tell her that I’m witnessing this chronic, insidious genocide and I’m really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature.”
Rafah, like the rest of Gaza's cities and villages, is now gone – laid waste in that genocide Rachel Corrie saw unfolding 20 years earlier.
@ianinnorway@DM_Deluca I hope Ukrainian men join forces with the growing resistance against military conscription among the youth, the peace movement etc and rise up against those hell-bent on continuing this brutal war. The alternative is to flee yet again, but the options for safe haven are dwindling
One for @bbclaurak who asked on air "Why would Israel lie?"
A leak has revealed the IDF actually has a programme to train its people in the “fundamentals of psychological warfare, propaganda, deception, legitimacy and public diplomacy." https://t.co/yW2WeZakYA
Not a single peep from the likes of the BBC or CNN, the same outlets that were reporting on the Iranian women’s football team three times a day.
Western media doesn’t care about women’s freedom in Iran, Palestine or Lebanon unless it can be weaponised to serve their narrative.
Belgium says it suspended arms trade with Israel.
Yet weapons shipments destined for Israel are still reportedly moving through Liège airport via FedEx Belgium.
Now @amnestybe is joining a lawsuit alleging the transfers are continuing in violation of the suspension.
What Israel is doing in Lebanon fits into a much larger regional pattern where sectarian fracture is used as a political weapon.
The destruction of predominantly Shia areas in southern Lebanon is framed as “security.” But increasingly, entire communities are treated as inherently suspect through association alone.
That logic has haunted the region for years. Divide Sunni from Shia. Arab from Arab. Keep societies fragmented enough that occupation, militarization, and endless war become easier to sustain.
And it does not stop at Lebanon’s border. Across parts of the Gulf, sectarian rhetoric is being cultivated to reshape how people view entire populations, playing into Israel’s dominion.
Meanwhile, Western media still treats this as isolated escalation instead of part of a much longer story of territorial expansion, displacement, and ethnic cleansing.
We are told there is a ceasefire while villages are flattened.
What Israel is doing in Lebanon is unambiguously genocidal against Shias. And it is unambiguously an attempt to reoccupy and even annex a huge part of the country. It’s infuriating that we’re pretending that there’s a ceasefire. And even more infuriating that Western media continues to turn a blind eye to Israel’s endless colonial expansion and insatiable hunger for Arab land.
I am still flabbergasted at how we told the world that what Israel was doing to us was genocide from the first days, just for the world to wait for "foreign people" to tell them it's genocide.
Maha's post will live well for ages to come.
Bezalel Smotrich: "Come live in the West Bank. I hope this incentive will help us bring one million settlers and kill the idea of a Palestinian state."
There are no two sides. There is only the boot and the face. Stop pretending otherwise
Breaking: After Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s legal team appealed his arbitrary detention, Israeli authorities transferred him on 3 June 2026 from Naqab Prison to solitary confinement in Nafha as a punitive measure. The move comes amid harsh conditions and denial of medical treatment.
