Every single publicised arson attack on a synagogue has now been linked to criminal gangs and/or Iran.

You’d imagine this would be front page news, considering how the media has sought to blame pro-Palestine protestors for two years.

But it’s nowhere.

The media blamed pro-Palestine protesters for firebombings. Will they apologise?
Every major arson attack targeting a synagogue is now alleged to have been perpetrated by organised criminals, or Iran. So why were protestors blamed?

A newspaper wrecked on purpose.
POLITICO compiled a list of all the Washington Post staffers who have left in the past eight months. It’s at least a hundred names, many of them among the biggest names in journalism. This is the fastest erosion of a major outlet ever.

Great speech by Stella winner Michelle de Kretser discussing the censorship around Gaza. Deeply strange its contents were only reported by The Age. Neither ABC nor Guardian write ups of the event mention her powerful comments at all. stella.org.au/2025/05/mich...

It's kidnapping and human trafficking.
Totally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.
@washingtonpost.com They were not DEPORTED. Deported means sending them back to their country of origin. These people were sent to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, without any due process or any analysis as to whether they feared harm in El Salvador!

I tried to resist writing about this particular white gazed book, but couldn't.

Trump's executive order to rename Denali is an example of reactionary settler colonialism: the specifically right wing effort to quash Indigenous resurgence. It's significant that he put this in his speech & included it in his 1st day of executive orders. We will see more of this.
President Trump’s plan to return Denali, the Alaska Native name for North America’s tallest mountain, to its earlier name, Mount McKinley, has run into opposition from Alaska lawmakers. nyti.ms/3CkkeAH
