He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.
Make it make sense.

These "hunger games" being played by Israel and the US are so disgusting. The humiliation and terrorizing and murdering of Palestinians via inhumanitarian aid is further evidence of how dehumanized Israel and the US are.

This is what fascist state capture looks like in practice—a pervasive blurring of the boundary between state & vigilante violence under the aegis of the law.
I cannot stress enough how much of a Def Con 1 moment this is. Federal judges fear that the President of the United States will stand down security for judges in retaliation for adverse decisions.
This is such a huge story.
This is such a huge story.
This should be seen as evidence of the crisis: federal judges fear that Trump will order U.S. Marshals to stand down on securing the safety of judges whose decision they don’t like. This is just devastating.

Israeli academia operates to justify and sustain Israeli state narratives and action.
Israeli archaeologists, for example, choose dig sites that facilitate Israeli encroachment and forcible dispossession of Palestinians.

Gaza is a free fire zone. Anyone can be killed anywhere at anytime.
In this case, a doctor lose nine of her ten children. This is a war crime.
The murder of two Israeli embassy staffers is also a crime.
The difference is that Palestinians are being killed by the dozens or hundreds a day.
