Israel detonated Naqoura village in South Lebanon

Obama’s nuclear deal took 100s of hours of negotiations. Large teams, with nuclear experts, working line by line. Vance thought he and two real estate guys could roll in and use leverage they don’t have, with the aura of a diplomatic superpower they no longer are. Schooled.

This is nothing new. For as long as I remember the USA has had no regard for other nations, acting as if they were “better than”. Arrogant pricks!

London Metropolitan Police have arrested more than 500 people at a pro-Palestine Action vigil on Saturday. The youngest was 18, the oldest was 87 years old. They were arrested for "showing support for a proscribed organisation".

More villages in South Lebanon being detonated by Israel. Israel is the one sharing these videos. They are proud of their war crimes.

In France, legislation came into effect recently for all car parks that have over 80 spaces to be covered with solar panels. Estimated to add around 11GW of renewable energy capacity to the national grid. Why not do likewise in Scotland? Braehead, Silverburn, Glasgow Fort etc.

I really do believe this is true. I'm sure that not everybody who turned up to protest has fascist leanings, but if you pulled your truck up next to one that said "Ireland for the Irish" and you don't leave, are you better than the owner of that truck?

People have been shocked that an AI company is offering chats with an AI Jesus for $1.99/minute but it's important to remember and respect the fact that a core part of American evangelicalism is being financially defrauded by people who claim to speak for god

Plus, the energy crisis Trump created is creating opportunity for fuckery and sabotage around Europe, including in Ireland.

So now those taking part in the blockades are threatening the wife of an be of the oil tanker drivers entering Whitegate refinery. So much for the protests being “about the people” Courtesy of @news.rte.ie #SpeirGorm

Irish Rail has warned that ships could soon have to be turned away from Rosslare Europort in Co Wexford due to capacity issues.

The farmer at Conways Farm is a great supporter of misogynistic fascist Duffy. Yeah, not great advertising for his products nor reputation to be honest 🤢

I am going to get my company vehicle’s and park them outside a farmer gate because the price rib eye steak doubled. Completely rational 🤷‍♂️

he was also at the 28th March meeting in Portlaoise where we are told the decision to hold protests was made. he didn't infiltrate, he has been involved from the start. he's one of the most extreme, hateful people in elected office in Ireland. he told a newspaper he believes the world is run by Jews

They attacked the Muslim Sisters of Éire, one of the kindest and mostly welcoming groups out on the streets of Dublin providing meals to the unhoused. Fuck every single one of these rat fucks.

Sorry, what now? You want the carbon tax abolished and VAT and excise cut, but it transpires that you don’t actually pay your taxes. Right so.

They are asking for ‘papers’ from people with medical appointments at motorway blockade points. Vile, disgusting fascists.

I thought all it would take to end the protests was a meeting with gov? Now it seems it will also take: -oil & gas exploration off west coast -Abolition of carbon tax -Price caps on fuel -Wider undefined cost of living supports …and as of this morning, bringing down the government

they want all their 'demands' to be met which apparently include that Ireland starts drilling for its own oil

Who's one of the main organisers of the Dublin fuel protest? ( If you want to protest about fuel price rises, do it outside the US and Israeli embassies) It's James Geoghegan, a racist, climate change denying bigot.

My God, that #rtept 2nd interview with Geoghegan was even crazier than the 1st! He said they're not afraid of the army because they have their own army. He said their machinery can't be moved by the army. He said he was selected as PRO a few wks ago at a meeting of 350 people. WTAF #IrishPol

JFC, Geoghan on #rtept saying they have a new demand to open up Ireland's oil fields, which he/they'll be bringing to a meeting with gov tomorrow. #IrishPol

It's so ironic that people like Ciarán Mullooley are supporting the traffic protest today. Reactionary populists like him (I know he's Trump-lite as opposed to full-on) are exactly why we're in this fuel price mess right now, but there he is, without a speck of self-awareness, egging it on.

looking forward to Sinn Féin exhorting me to "Vote Left, Transfer Left" after climbing up on stages beside the psychos running these poxy protests.

The hatred of fascists is a badge of honour for cyclists.

The "Ireland is full" brigade have it running on empty.

My brother has been 7 hours on the bus from Waterford to #Dublin Airport. It’s stopped 10k from it and not moving. He is now WALKING 10k. He’s missed his 2pm flight and no refund. Has to buy two new flights when he had a direct 3hr flight originally as he has to get back before the am. Scandalous

Ireland: Over two hours after the State's only Oil Refinery has been blockaded, Zara King on VM News reports from the scene that there are no Gardai present.

This fella, John Dallon, was interviewed by Eddie Hobbs this evening and he and Christopher Duffy were also doing a Facebook Live with Niall McConnell a little while ago. The smell of fash keeps getting stronger. #Speirgorm

Unusual oil trading activity ahead of Trump ceasefire announcement: “Deals are very rarely done in big lots, as traders prefer to use sweeping orders ​across many exchanges and ask brokers to use algorithmic trading over many hours to execute the order ​to avoid impacting prices with their bets.”

Yes, Israel called today's operations "Eternal Darkness" www.ynetnews.com/article/buf6... bsky.app/profile/emil...

"One hundred Israeli strikes on Lebanon in 10 minutes" The IDF itself proudly confirmed this

Cornish Mazraa Beirut just now. Israel is bombing throughout Lebanon

That's a noose and a 'Hang them High' sign at a fuel protest, BTW

Happy International War Crimes and Genocide Day to those who celebrate it.

Another bookshop in London would like to stock my greeting cards. Is anyone interested in bringing 30 cards to the anarchist bookstore in Whitechapel for me please?

Doctors warn that Israel is targeting Lebanon’s health care system, as it did Gaza’s

Trump’s Iran press conference ends with a declaration that America (apparently still?) wants Greenland, and threatened to leave NATO in January unless it was able to claim it.

"The wind has become a project manager. The cones are its staff. Nobody has overruled them." Someone sent me this essay about roadworks in Dublin, which I think is genuinely funny, in a Kafkaesque kind of way. So I wanted to share it with you. 1/ telegra.ph/The-500-Metr...

When the US admits that they killed any “military-aged men” who walked within 3km of a downed pilot they mean any boy lanky enough to be a teenager and any middle-aged man able to walk unaided with a cane got shot in the head for the crime of walking.

This is SO good. I am a bit obsessed with the time before major historical events. There is such poignancy in life going on but also a real lesson in "all things will pass".

OTD in 1949 Soviets issued orders for deportations from Moldova to begin. Over 30,000 people were forcibly moved, after we had "liberated them from fascism" in Great Patriotic War. Imagine this kind of thing happening today. Oh. Wait. My bad.

So apparently Iran has made some offer that if the EU pays in euros instead of dollars for products then they can use the straight of Hormuz. I wonder if they'll take the offer. If this happens it will not bode well for the US/Isreal. www.ibtimes.co.uk/iran-strait-...
