🚨 BREAKING: Lebanon files UN Security Council complaint accusing I$rael of violating the Chemical Weapons Convention in the south Lab tests from Aita al-Shaab, Naqoura, and Dhaira confirmed catastrophic levels of Glyphosate—a cancer-linked chemical—in agricultural soil. Normal farming levels would show 0.5 to 2 mcg/g but tests on soil in South Lebanon show 22,750 mcg/g, 11,000 times above safe levels It has been labeled by some as a deliberate war crime designed to permanently destroy arable border lands. Here is our report from the scene filmed in February
I$rael once again sprayed cancer-linked chemicals on agricultural land in south Lebanon on Friday, an act condemned as a war crime and a bid to make the border region uninhabitable Our report from the ground

There is no ceasefire in Lebanon with I$raeli attacks continuing in the south as it insists the MOU between Iran and the US doesn’t apply to them. Multiple villages have been targeted this morning with demolition operations while a booby-trapped vehicle was detonated on the road between Haris and Tebnine. Some municipalities have warned people not to return as many of those displaced from their homes are heading south. I$raeli forces this morning opened fire on Kfar Roummaine and also targeted the area around Maifdoun as civilians tried to return with at least one person wounded.

🇺🇸 🇵🇸 Sama Safi, a 20-year-old American citizen and honors psychology student at Birzeit University, remains in Israeli detention after soldiers seized her from her family’s home near Ramallah at 3 a.m. on June 2, with lawmakers warning her life is at risk. Safi, whose family lives in Florida, was taken without charge and transferred to Ofer prison, then to the Moscovia interrogation center in Jerusalem, according to the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society. Her family says she has a chronic condition that causes fevers up to 105°F and requires daily medication and a quarterly injection she travels abroad to receive. She was one of five Palestinian women detained that week, including two members of the Palestinian women’s national football team. The Israeli military said the women were suspected of “promoting terrorist activities.” Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Sen. Chris Van Hollen have both demanded her release. “I am really sick and tired of the Israeli government taking American taxpayer dollars and then mistreating Americans,” Van Hollen said. Israel has not told her family or the U.S. embassy where she is being held. Rep. Tlaib said, “Her life is at risk—our government must free her now!”

Fuck you, @washingtonpost . Amal did not ‘die,’ she was deliberately targeted and murdered after receiving threats from the Israeli army. She was in touch with us, her colleagues, during this situation. We all know exactly what happened. Shame on you for intentionally diminishing the criminality of the actions of the Israeli army with this headline. Shame on all of you and your correspondents in Beirut. I hope to see you on trial for your propaganda in my lifetime.

Thank you to the survivors of the USS Liberty for traveling to Washington DC on the 59th anniversary of the attack. Your courage to express the facts is the reason the tragedy of the USS Liberty will not be forgotten. It was an honor to host you and to speak on your behalf.

A dynomite telling telling of our story in such a short amount of time. The story NO other member of Congress will even listen to.
Thomas Massie delivers the truth about the intentional Israeli attack against the USS Liberty on the House Floor on the 59th year anniversary of the attack and calls for a real investigation. He says there was a 17-hour delay in receiving help after they were under attack by Israel. “It was intentional murder by the state of Israel.” “The Israelis were intent to leave no survivors.” “This was an effort to kill everyone on board.”

Marlin Stutzman Violated 18 U.S.C. § 219 by Acting as Israel’s Foreign Agent - May 27: Met with Netanyahu in Israel - June 1: Netanyahu thanks Stutzman in a letter for endorsing HIS PLAN for US-Israel deal in a House Resolution - June 3: Stutzman introduces US-Israel Cooperation Resolution which states it’s Netanyahu’s initiative - June 3: DailyWire reports Stutzman introduced the resolution after his meeting with Netanyahu The Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) states a Foreign Agent is "an individual/group who agrees to operate within the US subject to the direction of a foreign gov or official 18 U.S.C. § 219 directly prohibits Members of the House of Representatives (and other public officials) from acting as agents of foreign principals. (See Mel’s post for more)
Marlin Stutzman returned to Congress last year after an 8 year break following his failed bid for the Senate in 2016. Presumably in an attempt to make up for lost time Stutzman has decided to prostrate himself on the alter of Zionism as he sells out his country for peanuts and attaboys from Benjamin Netanyahu. Stutzman is in fact so eager to please his masters he literally flew to Jerusalem last month to receive directions directly from Netanyahu on what to put in “his” resolution selling out our country. Stutzman reports a net worth of ~$54 million on his congressional disclosures so it’s doubtful he’s chosen this path for simple campaign donations… Although it is worth noting that on March 19 Stutzman accepted a $297,000 donation to his Joint Fundraising Committee from a Richard Althoff out of Sarasota, Florida. This brought Althoff’s donations to Stutzman up to $322,000 for the 2026 cycle. Now why exactly a “movie producer” from Sarasota Florida is making 6 figure donations to a nobody congressman from Indiana is anybody’s guess… but it’s especially peculiar when you learn that Althoff has never made any other large donations to anyone. And considering that Stutzman only has 40 donors to that JFC and he literally just transferred all those funds minus $12,000 to the NRCC why didn’t Althoff just write the check straight to the NRCC? Anywho, 10 weeks later this dirtbag is on X bragging about selling our country out. It’s all very suspect.

This is a totally fabricated issue. It's completely made up and manipulated by ruthless, malicious Zionist organizations in Canada to distract from Israel's massive crimes against humanity and to justify shutting down civil liberties of Canadians to shield Israel from well-deserved criticism. @IndJewishVoices @JewsSayNo

Tonight, at 5 p.m. ET, Prime Minister Carney will address the nation of the crisis of antisemitism. CIJA's CEO @nshack says that this is an opportunity to set the tone from the highest office to make clear that nothing can justify the hatred, intimidation, and violence Jewish Canadians are experiencing and that every tool at the government’s disposal will be used to confront it. "Canada’s laws must be enforced and those who break them held meaningfully accountable. Government and law enforcement must address the drivers of this crisis, including radicalization, promotion of terrorism, and terrorist entities operating here in Canada."

After Netanyahu told the American President to go to hell this afternoon, he ordered the murder of this beautiful young woman. Using American bombs. Paid for by American taxpayers. Under the full military and diplomatic cover of the American government.
Israel executed Theodosia today in Qlayaa, South Lebanon. She was on her way to take her exams. Israel dropped a bomb on her car, killing her and her parents.

The Israeli army just issued a very vague forced displacement order for Beirut’s southern suburbs:
As Beirut residents wait for forced displacement orders and scramble to get out of the southern suburbs, the Israeli army has issued forced displacement orders for residents of seven towns and villages in the south, under threat of death. Forced displacement is a war crime.

Members of Congress have quietly advanced an alarming proposal: to further fuse the U.S. and Israeli militaries via sharing data, co-producing weapons, and integrating AI, cyber, and autonomous systems. It’s buried in the House NDAA as Section 224, and it would give Israel deeper military integration with the U.S. than any country in the world, including NATO allies. The move would also shield the relationship from public scrutiny by shifting it from visible aid votes into the opaque machinery of defense acquisition, where oversight is limited and political accountability is minimal.

Section 224 of the 2027 NDAA - National Defense Authorization Act integrates the U.S. military with the Israeli military. This is what complete capture to a foreign government looks like and there hasn’t been a single shot fired.
"At a time when the American public is expressing unprecedented levels of distrust in the Israeli government, Congress just proposed tying the U.S. to the Israeli military more than ever before." Here's the story: 🧵

Mike Rogers (R-AL) and Adam Smith (D-WA) have introduced the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative as part of the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act. The initiative would expand U.S. & Israel military cooperation with joint research, testing, manufacturing, and sharing technology. As well as promoting joint military training, information-sharing, network integration, and data fusion.
