Funeral for the 13 members of Lebanese state security massacred by Israel

Remember that the basis of “negotiations” is Israel wanting the Lebanese state to replace Hezbollah

Israel massacred 13 of those replacements

I think the number one, two, and three reasons for Israel's public relations crisis is that it's doing this to four separate countries simultaneously

Massacre upon massacre in Beirut in the last hour. AUBMC announced a “code disaster.” Over 100 airstrikes in 10 minutes across the country. One hit right behind my house. Sirens ambulances & the smell of sulphur. The city is in total chaos the people in complete panic

There is no ceasefire in Lebanon. Israel has been bombing Lebanon non-stop since last night. If anything Israel is expanding its war on Lebanon.

You are being lied to

How many more of these do we have to see? Congress posting from their porches around the country before heading in for a nap is just the cherry on the genocide sundae. In fairness to them, they did telegraph their OKness with genocide the last few years already so wtf did we expect

Such a great little bit of filming with a fun ending. Wish everyone everyone everyone everyone could see this. Including the salivating bloodthirsty warmongers in the US govt who are either driving or looking away from this criminal war.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

Exactly. Can we stop fantasizing about military swooping in to stop fascism. It’s already here, and military’s already warcriming every day.

There’s sure to be an edge-of-your-seat thriller about the daring rescue. There’ll be one sympathetic Iranian character who unfortunately is killed while helping the golden heroes. Killed by his own ruthless, dark, growling fellows, of course. Wings up. The end.

Israel is pounding Beirut on Easter Sunday. The last airstrike, in the Jnah neighborhood, full of refugees from other areas, is being reported as a massacre—20 casualties & counting. It was so loud in Ras Beirut my left ear is still throbbing something awful

Ma'am your chud husband was shot down while bombing toddlers. Yes he is an anointed hero of the american Volk. No you will not get to keep the house. Here's an AI video of him with a spinning black sun behind his head like a halo meeting with Charlie Kirk in Hyperborea

Actually guys the Israeli death penalty law is just really complex, the history of the conflict is really nuanced, you see you have to understand the granular details, you just don't get it, you don't have the context, which is really difficult to comprehend. Anyway Palestinians are subhuman trash.

Please consider using the link below to tell your two senators to support the forthcoming Joint Resolutions of Disapproval against the transfer of over 27,000 bombs to Israel, and to vote for the WPRs that are brought up for a vote.

An incredible — and incredibly familiar — war diary from Tehran, capturing the anxiety, absurdity, paralysis, and confusion of daily life under bombardment, but above all, the savage and thoroughly-singular sorrow of experiencing a collective catastrophe

Trump is completely flailing. He didn't anticipate the economic blowback and now he's trying to undo the past 10 days and contain the damage.

The article balances out povs among the displaced, but slants toward the quite startling headline--I don't think before today, this newspaper would have blasted that for a headline, though I could be wrong. Feels like something has shifted in a profound way. www.lorientlejour.com/article/1496941/-que-dieu-les-maudisse-le-hezbollah-subit-les-foudres-de-la-rue-chiite.html
