"This agreement is with Iran, and Gaza is left alone." Palestinians in Gaza say they feel abandoned by the US-Iran deal, which is expected to end Israel's attacks on Lebanon but makes no explicit mention of halting Israeli attacks on Gaza.

The Palestinian villages are getting burned down because the Israeli settlers are mad at Trump.
๐Ÿšจ ISRAELI SETTLERS BURN PALESTINIAN VILLAGES IN REVENGE FOR TRUMP-IRAN PEACE DEAL. Israeli settlers just torched multiple villages in the West Bank. This is how they act when diplomacy and peace threatens their blood-thirst wars.

There you have it. Anthropic's CEO said it: The murder of more than 100 schoolgirls in Minab targeted by Anthropic's CLAUDE "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines." Time to rise up against these technofeudal war criminals.
CEO of Anthropic Dario Amodei awkwardly smiles through his answer to a question about why Claude AI directly contributed to the US Military bombing of the elementary school in Minab.

I'm extremely pleased that a peace deal, or at least a framework has been agreed between the US and Iran. Well done to Pakistan, our PM, Interior Minister and Field Marshal who tirelessly Quarterbacked the mediation efforts. Lots of thanks to Qatar, Turkey, KSA, Bahrain and the UAE. This disastrous campaign had to end. A war of a terrible choice by the US President, who was dumb enough to be duped into it by the Israeli PM. A horrible miscalculation which has ended up weakening the US militarily, economically and geopolitically. The US President is touting a potential deal which is far worse for the US than the one that was in place which he chose to walk out from, again, at the behest of Israel. What can you expect from a man who has bankrupted businesses all his life? In my opinion there are two clear winners, and two clear losers from this war. Everyone else is on a wait and see holding pattern. Clear winners: Iran and China. Iran, despite the loss of thousands of civilian lives, damage to military, and other losses, defied, defeated and forced the greatest war machine in the history of mankind to desperately negotiate the end of the war. There is no denying this and there is no grey area here. They are going to walk away from this sanctions free, with their frozen funds, and military strength in the region. Iran has won BIGLY. China has established itself as the World superpower. Of course, the peace deal that everyone is celebrating could not have come about without Beijingโ€™s go ahead. China will be where the world looks to for direction going forward. THe future is not about military might. It is about commerce, development, and sustainability. China can answer those questions. The US cannot. Clear losers: Ive mentioned the US. Israel is in a worse position. No matter how many civilians it kills in Gaza and Lebanon, Israel is not being viewed as a military power. Iran proved that over and over again in the last few months. There are no fighter jets or bombs or missiles that can counter the genuine disdain and contempt that the World has for Israel. No amount of AIPAC paid war mongering Senators or Zionist celebrities will help. And the view particularly inside the US has turned against this rogue, genocidal State. The future for Israel is bleak. The World celebrates Israelโ€™s failures. And Israelis have no one to blame but themselves. Everyone else is in strange and difficult positions. Pakistan: has to somehow ensure that their huge diplomatic victories, translate into long term economic gains. That we become an investment destination along with being an international player. International Investment is far more valuable than International praise. Otherwise, there is no real progress. GCC: Have to come to terms about the reality of Iran. Must learn to co exist with a sanctions free and militarily dominant Iran. It was smart of UAE to release Iranian funds in the last few days. KSA, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait will need to also stand with Iran going forward. EU: Are in a bind clearly about whether to continue aligning themselves with a failing and bumbling United States, or to look towards the East. I think its a choice between Politics and Economic survival. And the Europeans will invariably take the worst decision possible. Russia: Any advantages or gains from the US defeat are limited because of their own ongoing costly campaign in the Ukraine. If they are also to position themselves are the major world player in energy and geopolitics, they need to end their own war too. Otherwise, this will be a huge opportunity squandered. India: despite the economy and the market, it has proven that its not a serious player on the International Stage. There is a shift that's desperately needed. Modi doctrine is on its last legs. And the struggling Indian Economy and their irrelevance on the World stage is proof. On the whole its a good day. Let there be peace in the region, especially for the people of Iran, Gaza and Lebonan. Well played Pakistan. We need similar resounding victories on the economic front now.

I love that students are still making statements, still walking out, still talking about this - when it feels everyone, everything has โ€œmoved onโ€ Iโ€™m glad to see this. Not because it materially changes any realities for Palestinians (and Lebanese, Iranians, etc) but because it forces everyone who witnesses it to remember the on-going, unending crimes of our country against entire peoples.
BREAKING: Stanford University graduates staged a walkout during Google CEO Sundar Pichaiโ€™s keynote address at commencement Sunday. The walkout was organized by Students for Justice in Palestine and No Tech for Apartheid as a protest against Googleโ€™s contracts with the IDF, Dept. of Homeland Security, and ICE.

Men like this donโ€™t feel shame when they are called out but we now have child marriage laws, so letโ€™s file cases against men who promote child rape. Letโ€™s see how serious our govt is about protecting children. @nighatdad @AuratMarch @GovtofPunjabPK @GovtofPakistan @Shehzad89

At this point I donโ€™t believe publicly shaming them works, if anything they get a whole new toxic support base. I think we need to connect their words with crimes and laws. Domestic violence & child rape are CRIMES. People promoting them are promoting crime. We need to file cases

BREAKING: "Greater Israel" is now marketed in London. Like in Montreal and in New York. Apartheid without borders. P.S. This explains why criticism of Israel is being restricted (and "anti-antisemitism" laws keep appearing). Apartheid is not only a crime. It is a business model.
URGENT: On 14 June, a "Great Israeli Real Estate" event in London will market properties in illegal Israeli settlements โ€” including Gush Etzion, Ma'ale Adumim, Negohot. @ICJP, @PILC and @ELSC have just written to the Met Police War Crimes Team & the Home Secretary and Business and Trade Secretary. This event needs to be cancelled immediately. Here's why it matters ๐Ÿงต
