Don’t become numb to these atrocities - there are not separate kinds of human beings - what is done to one is done to all .
Israel has claimed responsibility for bombing a wedding celebration in Gaza City yesterday that killed 7 people from two families, including a 4-month-old baby. Israel offered no explanation for violating the ceasefire, but acknowledged that “uninvolved civilians” were killed.

It’s not the old v. the young. It’s the rich v. everyone else. If Bernie’s Social Security bill passed in 2021, Musk would’ve owed $2.9 billion more in taxes, benefits would be up $2,400, Social Security would be solvent for 75 years & the bottom 91% would pay $0 more in taxes.
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 US boomers overwhelmingly support higher taxes on younger workers to maintain current Social Security benefits, poll shows.

WATCH HIM SHIT HIS PANTS‼️ Peter Thiel, co-founder of Palantir, SHITS HIMSELF when asked about Israel’s use of AI in Gaza. Why? Because Palantir’s technology is behind “Lavender” and “Where’s Daddy.” You have to be a SICK FUCK to come up with a name like “WHERE’S DADDY.”

🇵🇸 Israel Exposed, the anonymous collective behind one of the largest online archives of Gaza genocide documentation, has released a map placing more than 35,200 videos and photos at the locations in Gaza where they were filmed. Every geolocated clip links to its original post and source. Users can filter by area, date and type of attack, and overlay UN satellite damage assessments (UNOSAT). The full dataset is downloadable. The group launched its archive in July with more than 64,500 videos and 17,900 photos and says more footage will be added.
It took a little longer than expected, but we have finished the Gaza Geolocation Map. Every clip in the archive whose location we know is placed on a map of Gaza, so you can see where the footage was filmed. It includes: 35,200+ videos and photos placed on the map. Sources and the original post for every clip Node map links & suggested leads Our built-in AI iris can navigate the map Fully searchable index Filters by area, date, type of attack and precision UN satellite damage survey layer (UNOSAT) Built-in reverse image search links for each node Downloadable dataset (CSV, GeoJSON and Google Earth) It can be accessed here: archivegenocide.com/geolocat… Please re-share and help us break out of the algorithm prison. We will keep placing more of the footage as our researchers work through the rest of the archive. Thank you to genocide.live, GeoConfirmed, @AbuLocation and @NemoAnno, whose geolocation work is credited on the map. God bless all those who sacrificed their lives to get this footage out.

I can’t believe we have to say this, but the annihilation of two major American cities — more than 5 million people — is not a “small price to pay” for Trump's illegal war. Neither are the 19 American troops and 3,000+ Iranians who lost their lives. Our president is unhinged.

This is why the billionaire class is freaking out. Google co-founder Sergey Brin in particular has completely lost it - he has spent 102 MILLION, all to defeat a tiny tax on his ginormous fortune. It's honestly sad to see: so rich, and they still don't understand what's really scarce in life: your fucking time on this planet! Instead, this guy spends hours, days and weeks obsessing over this little tax that he'll barely notice. Pathetic.
If California’s “billionaire tax” passes, it will amount to the first time that a government in the U.S. has successfully taxed the assets, rather than the income, of extremely rich people as a class. newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…

L'Israelizzazione delle democrazie occidentali è in stato avanzato e le prove affiorano ogni giorno. Just link the dots.
L’ex capo dei servizi segreti esteri tedeschi, August Hanning, è stato arrestato con accuse gravissime: spionaggio e trasmissione di segreti di Stato a servizi d’intelligence stranieri. Queste accuse delineerebbero un grave tradimento: quello di un funzionario dello Stato che avrebbe dovuto difendere la sicurezza nazionale della Germania, non comprometterla. Secondo la procura di Amburgo, nel 2023 Hanning avrebbe organizzato, insieme all’ex capo dello Shin Bet, il servizio di sicurezza interna israeliano, una squadra di agenti israeliani incaricata di rapire con la forza i figli di una miliardaria tedesca. Vale la pena ricordare le parole del cancelliere Merz: Israele fa «il lavoro sporco per tutti noi». Intanto, Germania e Italia continuano a bloccare la sospensione delle disposizioni commerciali dell’accordo di associazione tra Unione europea e Israele e le misure sanzionatorie proposte. Eppure, il rispetto dei diritti umani è una condizione fondamentale di quell’accordo.

This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss. The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes. Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment. To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.

Umm …
Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.

So, the Green Party voted to brand Zionism as a form of racism - and all hell broke loose in the mainstream media that for years has been tolerating the Palestinian genocide. Now, on the specific issue, of whether Zionism is a species of racism, here is what I can offer: A recommendation for a forthcoming book that I was privileged enough to get a chance to read before it was published. The author is Benjamin Moser, the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize-winning author of 'Sontag: Her Life and Work'. The book's title? 'Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History'. Below you can find the blurb I wrote when I read it. I think it says everything I want to say on the question "Is Zionism a species of racism?" Benjamin Moser grew up inside the Zionist story. This remarkable book is a record of his slow, painful unlearning of it – its deconstruction. Resembling some character in an Ibsen play, Moser gradually, unwittingly, discovers an unpunished crime at the heart of a storyline he had considered ‘pure’. The result is not a polemic but a resurrection of a fine tradition of Jews who resisted Zionism, whose stories were suppressed, their names erased, their portents dismissed as self-hatred. And yet, as Moser shows with devastating patience, they were right. They were right about the Nakba before it happened. They were right about the settlements before they spread. They were right about the genocide before we watched it unfold. More than any other recent book, Anti-Zionism restores our faith in what Iris Murdoch defined as the Sovereignty of Good. benmoser.com/anti-zionism

I hope people in #Gaza can see this. #Milan 3/10/26: young people lit their phones in the dark to tell their peers in Gaza: you are not alone; spontanously they sang Free Palestine. The young generation, marked by the genocide, will see apartheid Israel in the dock. #CSALambretta
