!!! what an evil administration! and, apparently, plenty of further useless gov’ts who seem to just close their eyes ears & mouth when it comes to USA wars. if countries were to combine their ‘powers’, or more were to say “no more” like 🇪🇸, the USA’s military capacity would shrink dramatically.

🧵 Today’s news: Proton turned over payment info for a Stop Cop City account. Not good — it's state repression in action. Controversial opinion: We don't think this means all activists should abandon Proton for docs/email. It depends on your threat model. Let's explore. (Long thread incoming 👇)

This is now the exact scenario people warned about why Canada should not sign agreements with authoritarian regimes... And how we got dragged into Libya intervention in 2011.

"JUST IN: Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Qatar are discussing withdrawing from contracts with the U.S. and canceling future investment commitments in the U.S. to alleviate some of the economic strain imposed upon them by the Iran war"....Sulaiman Ahmed on X.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion. That's roughly $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. People do not want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

PM says he won't rule out joining the US/Israel war even as he says "It appears that these actions are inconsistent with international law." We are being set up here folks. Contact your MP. Contact the PM tell them we can't go along with this illegal war. nationalnewswatch.com/2026/03/04/c...

Canada cannot equivocate on this dangerous an illegal war. Our NATO allies have been clear in rejecting the war.

Canada refused to give support to an illegal war in 2003. We faced enormous pressure to go along with the USA. What we see today is a totally illegal war launched by two dangerous criminal leaders. There is no NATO mission here. This is Operation Epstein. www.independent.co.uk/voices/iran-...

!!! While the Iran war rages, Israel is brutally displacing ppl in the W.Bank, stealing land & building housing for Israelis “the rapid integration of the […W.B.] into Israel’s legal regime and the historic pace of settlement construction is annexation. It is Netanyahu rebuffing Trump’s directive.”

Selbst die NYT gibt korrekt wieder, was für ein ****kriecher dieser Kanzler ist. Im Rest Europas dürfte das nicht gut ankommen. Und eine mutige Opposition in D würde daraus etwas machen. Re-Post mit Alt-Text.

Viele sehen Merz als „starken Mann Europas“, was mehr über Europas Schwäche sagt, denn über Merz‘ Stärke. Merz ist die Summe der Fehler, wenn man schwache Menschen, deren Stärke sich in ihrem Anspruch auf Höheres erschöpft, in Verantwortung setzt — Man bekommt einen haltungslosen Günstling als Chef.

!!! while Merz was on the WH kissing Trumps boots!

“Britain had no involvement in the initial attack but in a statement late on Sunday…Starmer said he had agreed to let the US use British military bases to attack Iranian missile sites, so as to limit the impact of Iranian strikes.”on USA assets & military bases!!!

“Live l "They have been terrible": Trump threatens to cut off all trade with Spain because of his position on Iran”

"Spain won't let us use their bases to attack Iran, but we can just go in and use them anyway if we want to." Oh. Really?

“Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced tonight the sending of a warship and anti-drone means to protect British military bases in Cyprus”

Well this may come as a life changing shock to some of you but the UN nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi just said inspectors have no found evidence of a coordinated Iranian programme to build nuclear weapons. Iranian children are dying because Epstein's best friend wants to kill kids

If European Union would have put sanctions on Israel to stop the genocide in Gaza, there likely would be no Israeli-USA war against Iran destablizing the entire Middle East. But EU's Kaja Kallas (@kajakallas.bsky.social) successfully opposed proposed sanctions, claiming there was no need for them.
