W/honor Ret. US Army Col. Ann Wright apologies for the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. "Our apologies for the assassination of the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei & his family & the families of many of the other leaders of the government"-Al Mayadeen

Legacy of Israel "KILL THE WITNESSES. STARVE THE REST" "579 aid workers killed. 270 journalists, a world record. 37 humanitarian organizations banned. Israel isn't just committing war crimes. It's eliminating the people documenting them"-By: Austin Stanley Mark Sikora-Substack

In Sayyed Ali Khamenei's discourse across decades of speeches, he impressed that Palestine was not merely occupied land but the heart of the confrontations btw the Islamic Ummah & the front of arrogance; "a wound in the body of the Muslim world and in the conscience of humanity"-Al Mayadeen

We applaud the VETERANS who showed up in Philadelphia to protest against Donald Trump, a Draft Dodger and Coward!

"America, the Once Global Nation: At 250, the country is struggling to come to terms with the world it created." By: Odd Arne Westad, Foreign Policy Magazine The world we now live!

Why are so many Americans preoccupied with their government or miliary looking weak! We're seemingly under the impression that strength alone comes from the might of one's muscle or capacity to overpower-superior force. Might makes right abandons rational problem-solving solutions for coercion

How many more resource wars in the ME does the US plan to fight?

By waging war on Iran and violating international law, Trump has brought dishonor to our country & to our military.

Sure hope Lard Arse is feeling the heat today. Heat which will only increase over time w/the help of his deregulations & use of public land for mining, forestry, oil & gas extraction & more. The dumb bastard has no idea he's threatening the lives of his own progeny. But then, he wouldn't care.

Seems as if Israel & the US don't like any resistance to their plans to dominate the ME. West included. For those under gun, subjugation & occupation are the only alternatives in the eyes of the dominating forces, w/promises of a better war of life, which in actuality, better suits Israel & the US.

Enjoy this summer, folks, it may be the coolest one of your lifetime.

Israeli zealots feel the need to annex territory not of their own as "safety" zones to keep them safe from the enemies they themselves have created. If Israelis believe subjugation & occupation of a people is going to keep them safe in the future, they will be engaging in a forever war.

Is the US going to war with Lebanon now?

Bravo New Jersey! New Jersey is launching a fee on companies that have a least 50 workers who have Medicaid instead of being covered by their employers. Employers benefit from having lower-income workers coupled w/taxpayer-funded healthcare.-AP News

Don't know if enough Americans realize just how dire the situation is with climate change resulting from global warming. Heatwave intensities, ocean warming levels & ice melt are manifesting decades ahead of the worst-case scenarios projected by scientists & international climate models-LA Times

Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people lookin' half dead Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head-Lovin' Spoonful, 1966

Lebanon-ISR agreement Article 13: In exchange for an Israeli withdrawal, Lebanese authorities are allowing ISR not be held accountable for any war crimes committed in Lebanon. A political decision taking away the right to justice from the Lebanese people.-MEE A trilateral agreement w/the US!

Palestinian Feminist Collective reported Israel has for decades engaged in a “reproductive genocide” against Palestinians, involving the "destruction of medical systems, the killing of women and children, and environmental degradation that contributes to infertility."-Al Mayadeen

Oh, happy days, So, this is the world we now find ourselves living-dominated by geo-politics & conflict, a 3rd nuclear race era, misinformation & AI, climate change & environmental collapse & all the while, leaderless & on the brink of destruction. Other than that..

Rhetoric heating up btw Turkey & Israel Turkey's FM Hakan Fidan has discussed w/allies ways in which to stop Israel's military push thru the region. "Netanyahu’s expansionist policy is one that supports chaos, instability, war, tears, destruction, and genocide in the region,” said Fidan.-Al Jazeera

2026 El Nino threatens to contribute to the loss of virtually all Arctic sea ice by Sept. Earth will then absorb more sunlight & heat & ocean heat will be transferred into the atmosphere Inc. in global temps could subsequently cause virtually all Antarctic sea to disappear months later-Arctic News

Venezuela rescue operations are stalling as there is a fuel shortage! In the 1st four months the US took almost 100m barrels of Venezuelan oil worth an estimated market value of $7.9b. Jan. $0.6b Fed. $1.9b March $4.2b By April $7.9b-Council on Foreign Relations

Let this sink in: Around 60% to 67% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, struggling to keep up with the rising cost of housing-which Trump could give a shite about, healthcare and daily basic needs-EconoFact This, in the richest nation in the world! Our gov. has failed us & for decades.

Even believing in climate change, according to Vance, is anti-Catholic! Apparently, having written a spiritual memoir on his conversion to Catholicism in 2019 makes him quite the expert. Whatever happened to God's green earth?

Israel be damned! After a less than a 10 minute warning to evacuate, Israel bombed an area in Khan Younis setting fire to around 200 tents reducing everything to ash, leaving thousands homeless again & at a time when there are shortages of tents & humanitarian supplies.-The New Arab

Lebanon-ISR agreement Article 13: In exchange for an Israeli withdrawal, Lebanese authorities are allowing ISR not be held accountable for any war crimes committed in Lebanon. A political decision taking away the right to justice from the Lebanese people.-MEE A trilateral agreement w/ the US!

The US has had no intentions of ending the genocide in Gaza. The Oct. '25 Gaza ceasefire was brokered & backed by the US, at the same time the US was selling weapons to Israel to conduct its ongoing genocide in Gaza.

"Finish Conquering All of Gaza" Smotrich touring the Gaza border stated a plan for Gaza was awaiting Netanyahu's approval "We must establish a belt of Jewish settlements that will serve as a security buffer for Israeli communities" Israel is ready to build 3 settlements in Gaza "Immediately"-Haaretz

Just 1 of many Mujahed Mofleh, one of Palestine’s finest editors, nearly died after being held for 7 mos. in Israeli detention He spent another 7 in Palestinian hospitals after suffering a brain hemorrhage 2 days after his release Part of Mujahed's skull was removed to save his life-Anadolu Ajansi

Israel's use of water a weapon of war in Palestine & now Lebanon Israel recently damaged the Qaraoun Dam in Lebanon, creating structural damage, threatening the country's water supply The attack reflects Israel's long-standing ambition to control Lebanon's water, as was done in Gaza-Mondowiess

US pulled a dirty trick on Iran. They paired up w/Oman-what that deal entailed or what was given in exchange, because the US doesn't deal clean-opened up an alternative shipping lane in the Strait. The US knew this would intensify tensions w/Iran. US has no intention of finding a clean resolution

The US never let go of its geopolitical interests in Iraq, even before the war w/Iran, Bessent & Trump were exerting intense pressure financially & politically on Iraq to prevent the election of PM al-Maliki. No surprise he lost. US & Iraq have just entered into an economic partnership. Coincidence?

Trump's crusade to protect Christianity doesn't include Palestinians. Israeli extremist attack & terrorize Palestinian Christians, their communities & their holy sites. Trump speaks of Godless communists in the US threatening Christianity & US strikes in Nigeria were based on saving Christians.

US Qualitative Military Edge Law US has been arming, training, funding the LAF for 20 yrs, following the 2006 Lebanon War to counter Hezbollah. Aid to Lebanon excludes any heavy offensive weaponry-tanks, fighter jets, long-range missiles-wherein ISR maintains a military advantage over Lebanon.

Trump’s financial disclosures revealed his investment accounts made over 3,600 stock trades, totaling btw $212m-$695m the 1st 3 months of this year-PBS He didn't give a shite if Americans were facing hardship: "... I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody."

Point 5 of the MoU "Islamic Republic of Iran will make arrangements using its best efforts for the safe passage of commercial vessels with no charge for 60 days, only from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman and vice versa." Iran will "make the arrangements" makes Iran the authority as to who enters

What a coincidence! Trump signed the 14-point US-Iran MoU in Versailles on June 28th, the same date & the same place Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles formally ending WWI & wherein Germany was to pay massive financial reparations. Article 231 of the treaty is known as "The Guilt Clause!"

After striking 10 military sites in Iran, Trump warns if Iran continues to violate the ceasefire US "will be forced to militarily complete the job." Does he at all understand his threats provoke Iran to do the same? The US is not looking for peace, but to dominate They picked the wrong opponent

Ahem LA

Feb 28, US military deployed 4 untested Lockheed Martin Precision Strike Missiles, which detonate in the air & scatter thousands of tungsten pellets, on a town of 30,000 Iranians killing 21 civilians, including young girls playing volleyball.

The cargo ship Iran struck carried a Singapore flag. They were warned they were in an unauthorized lane & needed to turn back or be fired upon. The warnings were ignored & Iran fired. Not a US or ally ship, but US decide to strike Iran, knowing Iran would do in kind. Why risk restarting the war?

Same BS, different day! The Pentagon delayed making a public announcement of the strikes on Iran on Friday until the financial markets closed, as to reduce any immediate impact.

Just 1 day after signing US-backed, no less, security deal w/Lebanon, Israeli drones attacked so. Lebanon. The 1st strike was near a LAF army post. Israel claimed the target was Hezbollah fighters posing a threat Today, Israeli surveillance drones were heard in many parts of Lebanon, Beirut as well

Trump's vying to be named emperor. Trump wants to eliminate the separation btw church & state, echoing the time of Emperor Charlemagne & the creation of the Holy Roman Empire, wherein religious authority legitimized political power or "divine" legitimacy for secular rule. Be afraid, be very afraid.

They were warned! IRGC warned the Singapore-flagged cargo ship, Ever Lovely, against using unauthorized routes or they would be fired upon, they ignored the warning & consequently, they were fired upon. Why did the Ever Lovely, no longer lovely, chose to ignore the warning & risk the consequences?

At the same time Israel signed a US-backed agreement w/Lebanon, Israeli troops killed 5 Palestinians in Gaza, 3 of which were police members, in violation of the ceasefire. Since the Oct '25 ceasefire, Israeli troops have killed 1,031 & injured 3,309 Palestinians in Gaza alone.

This is in & of itself is telling Lebanon & ISR have sign a US-backed trilateral agreement (anything like the US-backed ceasefires in Lebanon?), to restore Lebanese sovereignty & remove Hezbollah & Iran from so. Lebanon. I was under the impression Israel was the threat to Lebanon's sovereignty

Supreme Court is a total abomination. US Supreme Court sided, 7-2, with Bayer, maker of Roundup which contains glyphosate, a known carcinogen, to block thousands of lawsuits against Bayer which failed to warn people the product causes cancer. Bayer is a German multinational pharma co.
