Make no mistake, the fascist state of Israel will, in the next 5 years, target Jordan and Egypt.
Jordan will be handed to them without a shot fired by the puppet regime.

80 years ago, the US dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, with an estimated 400,000 people killed immediately and later from radiation effects.
Perhaps if the world had the moral courage to pursue justice for that , we would be in a better world today.

Israel is starving Gazans to death but Israelis and white colonial world leaders are aghast at the videos showing emaciated hostages?
The connection between starving Palestinians TO DEATH and emaciated Israeli hostages is not fucking rocket science.

The reason the west do not first and foremost recognise Hamas, Palestinian Jihad and others as resistance and liberation groups is because it does not want to recognise that Israel is an oppressive and illegal occupying force against which armed resistance is justified and necessary.

Trump is daring the world to unite against his economic tyranny.
But the world the world didn't unite against the tyranny of genocidal Israel that did not directly threaten them.
Perhaps they will unite against Trump's tariff bullying.

Israel has bombed more people in tents and is mass bombing areas of Gaza.
Including using a new weapons that creates giant smoke rings.

The later the action, the sharper the turn.
Pick any issue - Israel's belligerence, mass and poorly managed immigration , the rise of extremism, the wealth gap, the climate crises, abuse of tech - any and all of it.
Early action would have averted most of what we are enduring.

#China reports its emissions are falling.
The BBC's reaction is to say 'really? - but maybe we don't believe you'. www.bbc.com/news/article...

IDF ordered to shoot unarmed starving civilians that were lured to Israeli controlled 'aid'. IDF soldiers themselves confirm this. By the way people, Gazans are starving because Israel is starving them.

Iran has every right to pursue a nuclear program.
Perhaps far more than Israel or the US - both of whom have started more wars in the last 50 years than Iran. More wars and interfering in the affairs of other nations than Iran.
Now, more so than ever, Iran *should* pursue a nuclear weapon program.

Call me naive, but I do not understand why the UK doesn't just stop all trade and exchange with Israel - a country that is demonstrably committing a genocide.
Just stop it.

America's military industry is massive. It needs permanent threat and conflict. NATO and Gulf states are its biggest customers. So it has zero interest in peace anywhere.
They make up threats and create enemies to fuel this industry. When you poke at the peaceful enough, they will respond.

Western press all about how Iran is repressing suspected Israeli collaborators.
Nothing about Israel infiltrating another sovereign state, violating all international law. Nothing about about killing officials of another state with impunity.
