The BBC is at it again. Dahiye is not simply “where Hezb0llah is based.” It is home to 500,000–800,000 people. It’s where families live, where friends meet in cafés and restaurants, where people work, shop, study, and build their lives. The choice of language is deliberate, dehumanising an entire community to justify I$raeli attacks on civilians. Shameful

Where were you “defenders of religion” when zelensky’s regime raided the Kievskaya Pecherskaya Lavra, imprisoned its priests, and shut down or burned hundreds of churches across Ukraine? Now you’re all hysterically condemning a minor fire caused by Ukrainian incompetence? Spare us the fake outrage. This isn’t about God or heritage, it’s just another pathetic propaganda stunt to prop up the Kiev narrative. By thankfully fewer people are falling for it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​…

War is over now: U.S. bases in the Middle East are gone, Iran is getting paid billions, Iran will now charge Hormuz tolls & Israel was forced to withdraw from Lebanon. 🇮🇷 GREAT JOB IRAN!

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov: "Foreign Minister Wadephul announced sometime last month or the month before, that the German military would expand its exchange of experience with the armed forces of Ukraine. That is, with the new Nazis." Well, these people have been longing for the Nazi insignia for quite some time. Finally, their dreams have come true. Of course, it will end the same way it ended the last time.

"This government is treating Palestine Action as equivalent to Islamic State or Al Qaeda, which is intellectually bankrupt, politically unprincipled and morally wrong. Frankly I'm deeply ashamed" Labour peer Peter Hain in the Lords in July last year

Today’s ruling to uphold the UK government's proscription of Palestine Action is a travesty of justice. One by one, the very foundations of our democracy are being destroyed — all to oil the wheels of British complicity in genocide. Our government has participated in the mass murder of Palestinians. That is the real crime, and we must bring about justice.

Among much utter mince uttered by the English Court of Appeal today. Lady Chief Justice Carr said that the suffragettes were non-violent and did not plan any actions in secret. Which is so ignorant of history I don't know where to start...

"They spent years analyzing the boy, while completely ignoring the tank. Faris Odeh was only 15 years old when this iconic photo was taken during the Second Intifada. Days later, on November 8, 2000, he was killed. For over two decades, mainstream media, psychologists, and historians have tried to analyze him. They called him a “daredevil.” They tried to decode why a child would stand before a battle tank with nothing but a stone. But the math is actually very simple. Power always interrogates the methods of the oppressed, but it rarely questions the machinery of the oppressor. Faris wasn’t confused, and he wasn’t looking for an adrenaline rush. He was a child born into an impossible reality who chose to stand his ground against overwhelming odds. 24 years later, the world is still trying to blame the stone and ignore the tank. History refuses to forget the unbroken spirit of Faris Odeh. ©tanvir

A REAL HOLOCAUST. Thousands of children’s shoes were displayed in the Netherlands to honor the Palestinian children killed in Gaza by Israel. Local Jewish organizations had the nerve to oppose the memorial, arguing that the display could increase antisemitism.

If protesters had forced their way into a German concentration camp and smashed the Zyklon B tanks and pipework leading to the 'showers' used to exterminate Jews, would the judge in the Filton case have deemed that an act of terrorism? @Keir_Starmer @DavidLammy

🚨 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

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov: “In the current situation, Europeans are drawing erroneous conclusions that Russia is currently losing and Ukraine is winning, hence ultimatums can be issued in the hope that Russia will accept these ultimatums... These calculations, of course, have completely unfeasible goals and are delusory.” So three ambassadors came to our ministry last week to lecture us. Again. Good job, guys! Your predecessors taught you nothing.
