A 68‑year‑old Army veteran in Georgia called 911 because she couldn’t get out of bed, couldn’t reach her medication, couldn’t get water. She lived alone, her Parkinson’s disease had advanced to the point where basic survival was slipping out of her hands, and she used the only emergency system available to her. Over nine months she called 911 around 140 times. Instead of treating those calls as a medical crisis, the county treated them as a nuisance.Adult Protective Services showed up once. One visit. She declined help while she was still mobile enough and was able to manage. After that, the system washed its hands of her. When she kept calling because she had no other way to stay alive, they arrested her. They took her from her bed, put her in a wheelchair, and hauled her to jail. When she missed court, they jailed her again. She ended up with probation and a ban on non‑emergency 911 calls. A disabled veteran who couldn’t reach her medication was told she could no longer call for help.This isn’t an isolated failure. This is how the United States treats the people it sends to war.PTSD — jailed during a mental health crisis * Case 1 — Marine veteran Joshua “JT” Thomas, arrested during a PTSD breakdown Date: April 12, 2024 Location: Tulsa, Oklahoma Details: JT Thomas called 911 during a panic episode. He told dispatch he needed medical help. Police arrived, found him pacing and shaking, and arrested him for “public intoxication” even though he was sober. He spent three days in jail, having repeated panic attacks. His VA psychiatrist said the arrest worsened his condition.* Case 2 — Army veteran Daniel Knight, killed during a PTSD crisis Date: July 3, 2021 Location: Winter Park, Florida Details: Knight was having a severe PTSD episode at a family gathering. His family called 911 for medical help. Police arrived, escalated the situation, and shot him. He died at the hospital. His family had warned dispatch that he was a veteran in crisis.Dementia — charged with disorderly conduct * Case 1 — Navy veteran William “Bill” Young, arrested for “disorderly conduct” Date: September 18, 2023 Location: Phoenix, Arizona Details: Bill Young, a 78‑year‑old Navy veteran with advanced dementia, wandered into a convenience store confused and agitated. Staff called police. Officers arrested him for “disorderly conduct.” He spent the night in jail, terrified and unable to understand what was happening. Charges were dropped only after his daughter went public.* Case 2 — Vietnam veteran Robert “Bobby” Allen, arrested after a dementia episode Date: February 9, 2022 Location: Louisville, Kentucky Details: Allen, 74, walked into traffic during a dementia episode. Police detained him, charged him with “obstructing traffic,” and booked him. His family had been begging the VA for a dementia care placement for months.Traumatic Brain Injury — arrested for “resisting” because they couldn’t understand commands * Case 1 — Army veteran Michael Ramos, arrested for “resisting” Date: May 6, 2025 Location: San Antonio, Texas Details: Ramos, who suffered a severe TBI in Afghanistan, was stopped for a broken taillight. He struggled to follow verbal commands due to cognitive impairment. Officers interpreted his confusion as defiance and arrested him for “resisting.” His neurologist later testified that Ramos physically could not process rapid instructions.* Case 2 — Marine veteran Anthony “Tony” Salazar, beaten and arrested Date: November 14, 2020 Location: Bakersfield, California Details: Salazar, who had a TBI from an IED blast, was approached by police responding to a noise complaint. He froze when officers shouted commands — a known TBI response. They tackled him, beat him, and charged him with resisting arrest. Charges were dropped after medical records were reviewed.Veterans calling 911 for help — arrested for “misuse” * Case 1 — Army veteran Michael “Mick” Johnson Date: March 2024 Location: Dayton, Ohio Details: Johnson, who had mobility issues and chronic pain, called 911 repeatedly because he couldn’t reach his medication. Police arrested him for “misuse of emergency services.” He spent two nights in jail. The VA later admitted he qualified for in‑home care that had never been scheduled.* Case 2 — Air Force veteran Linda Carver Date: August 2023 Location: Wichita, Kansas Details: Carver, who lived alone and had severe COPD, called 911 multiple times because she couldn’t breathe and had no caregiver. Officers eventually arrested her for “false reporting.” She was hospitalized immediately after release.These cases aren’t accidents. They’re a pattern. Veterans with medical emergencies are treated like criminals. Veterans with neurological damage are treated like threats. Veterans with mental health crises are treated like disruptions. The country sends them to war, breaks their bodies and minds, and then abandons them when they come home needing help.This is the country these people fight for…kill for — a country that abandons them. Why would anyone fight for a country like this?We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication. We feature citizen journalists unapologetically.

Oliver Larkin gets stopped by journalist Glenna Milberg, an Emmy Award-winning television journalist at Miami’s WPLG Local 10 News, mid-interview after saying Israel is committing genocide in Gaza"That is factually incorrect. That's propaganda. The definition of genocide, and the UN has said this, does not apply to—what many people might think is a disproportionate wartime action—that's what that is.Genocide is a very specific thing, actually genocide being committed against Jewish people, not by Israel."Larkin responds, "The UN recently in Geneva found that the IDF had deliberately targeted women and children. There's been famine conditions imposed over the Gaza strip by the blockading of aid. There's been indiscriminate bombing of hospitals, of mosques, of churches—"Glenna Milberg: "Again, I'm going to have to stop you, as that is factually not correct. I'm being told we have to wrap."We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication. We feature citizen journalists unapologetically.

Cellebrite isn’t just another tech vendor. It’s an Israeli digital forensics firm whose tools are used to break into phones, siphon data, and feed it into police, intelligence, and military systems around the world. What looks like a niche cybersecurity company is, in reality, a global surveillance — one with deep military roots, a long list of authoritarian customers, and a business model built on harvesting the intimate lives of millions.Origins: Built by Israeli IntelligenceCellebrite was founded in 1999, but its modern identity took shape after it was acquired by the Japanese conglomerate Sun Corporation in 2007. The company’s growth came from one product line: UFED — Universal Forensic Extraction Device, a machine designed to crack locked phones.Multiple investigations (Amnesty International, Haaretz, The Intercept) have documented that Cellebrite’s leadership and engineering talent comes from Unit 8200, Israel’s elite signals intelligence division — the same unit responsible for mass surveillance of Palestinians and global cyber operations.Unit 8200 alumni dominate Israel’s cybersecurity sector. Cellebrite is one of the most commercially successful branches of that ecosystem.Military TiesCellebrite openly markets its products to militaries. Israeli outlets like Calcalist and Haaretz have reported:* Former Unit 8200 officers hold senior engineering roles * The company collaborates with Israeli defense bodies on “national security” projects * Its tools are used by the Israeli army for field interrogations and intelligence gathering This isn’t a civilian tech company that happens to sell to governments. It’s a surveillance contractor shaped by military doctrine.128 Government ContractsAccording to U.S. federal procurement records (USASpending.gov), Cellebrite has:* 128 U.S. government contracts * Across FBI, DHS, ICE, Secret Service, DEA, ATF, and local police departments These contracts include:* Phone unlocking hardware * Cloud extraction tools * Training for digital forensics * “Enterprise solutions” for mass data ingestion This is only the U.S. Globally, the number is far higher.Customers: From Democracies to DictatorshipsCellebrite’s tools have been documented in use by:* Australia (state and federal police) * India (police and intelligence agencies) * Russia (before sanctions) * Belarus (used against protesters) * Hong Kong police (during the 2019 protests) * Saudi Arabia (including during the Khashoggi period) * UAE * Myanmar (military junta) * Vietnam * Bangladesh Rapid Action Battalion * Mexico (police and military) * Brazil * Kenya * Uganda Amnesty International and Access Now have repeatedly called out Cellebrite for selling to regimes with documented histories of torture, political repression, and unlawful surveillance.Capabilities: What UFED Actually DoesCellebrite’s flagship tools can:* Break into locked iPhones and Androids * Extract deleted messages, photos, and files * Pull cloud backups * Recover WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram data * Map social networks * Build behavioral profiles * Create searchable databases of extracted data * Export everything into police intelligence systems UFED can pull:* GPS history * WiFi networks * Browser logs * App usage * Contact graphs * Deleted media * Metadata trails * Authentication tokens * Cloud passwords If your phone touches it, Cellebrite can take it.GazaIsraeli military operations in Gaza rely heavily on digital intelligence. While Cellebrite does not publicly confirm battlefield use, Israeli investigative reporting (Haaretz, +972 Magazine) indicates:* UFED devices are used in field interrogations * Phones seized from Palestinians are routinely extracted * Data is fed into Unit 8200 systems * Profiles are built for targeting and surveillance Australia: The Place They Tested How Much They Could Get Away WithAustralian police forces have become major customers:* NSW Police * Victoria Police * Australian Federal Police * Border Force Investigations by The Guardian Australia and Crikey show:* Cellebrite tools were used without public oversight * Data extraction occurred on minors * Devices were used in immigration detention * Police refused to disclose how often UFED was used Australia is a democratic country — but the secrecy around Cellebrite mirrors authoritarian patterns.The Data Question: Where Does It All Go?Cellebrite insists it “does not store user data.” This is technically true — but misleading.Here’s what actually happens:* UFED extracts the data * Cellebrite software processes and categorizes it * The data is uploaded into police or intelligence databases * Those databases often sync with national or international systems Cellebrite doesn’t keep the data. But it creates the pipeline that allows governments to keep it forever.And because UFED can pull cloud tokens, agencies can access ongoing backups — meaning extraction isn’t a one‑time event.Is Cellebrite Collecting Everything?Not directly. But its tools enable:* Mass phone seizures * Bulk data extraction * Cross‑agency sharing * Integration with intelligence platforms * Long‑term retention * AI‑driven profiling Cellebrite is the harvester, not the warehouse.Recommendations (from digital rights groups)* Ban sales to regimes with documented human rights abuses * Require public reporting of every extraction * Mandate judicial warrants for UFED use * Prohibit cloud token harvesting * Audit all data pipelines created by UFED * Restrict military collaboration * Enforce transparency on international salesCellebrite operates in the shadows of global policing. It sells to democracies and dictatorships alike. It builds tools that invade into the last thing people think is still theirs — their phone. It has military DNA, intelligence ties, and a business model built on access to human lives.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

The claims coming off the USS Abraham Lincoln right now don’t look like anything the Navy would ever want to talk about. Seven sailors reportedly dead, not from Iranian fire or from any accident, but from a knife fight inside the ship. The navy should be making statements and investigations started…instead, there’s nothing. So now the rumors are flying.The Lincoln was supposed to be out for seven months. It’s now past nine. Anyone who knows military life understands what that kind of extension does to morale. You can feel the strain even from the outside — exhaustion, isolation, and the sense that command has forgotten the human beings stuck out there.That’s why the other claims — the attempted suicides — doesn't seem too farfetched. They’re not coming from official Navy channels. They’re coming from families and private chats. The details aren't confirmed but nobody is dismissing it either, because the Navy’s silence is doing the opposite of calming people down.The knife‑fight story sounds impossible until you remember what “unlivable conditions” actually mean on a carrier that’s been out too long. Cramped berthing. Heat. Broken ventilation. Overcrowding. Stress that never lets up. No clear end date. You pack thousands of people into that and eventually something snaps.Right now, the Navy’s refusal to speak is the biggest problem. If the deaths are real, people deserve the truth. If the story is wrong, people deserve correction. What they’re getting instead is absolute silence which gives credence that there are truth to these stories.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

What’s happening in Qusra right now is exactly the kind of s**t Western media loves to ignore: settler thieves terrorizing Palestinian families, the Israeli terrorist army pretending to “intervene” while doing jack‑s**t, and an American Palestinian family trapped in their own home while the thieves cut their water, electricity, food, and medical access. And yes — there’s a two‑year‑old who needed medical attention while these parasites physically blocked the ambulance.Let me spell out the f*****g insanity.Terrorist thieves have besieged multiple Palestinian homes since August 10.They set up tents in the families’ front yards, blocked every entrance, cut water and electricity, threw stones, vandalized property, screamed obscenities all night, and prevented anyone from entering or leaving. It's a coordinated “settler” terror campaign.Dozens of Israeli settlers surrounded a Palestinian family’s home in Qusra, south of Nablus, BLOCKING roads and CUTTING OFF electricity and waterThe trapped families include an American Palestinian family.Loai Ridi — a Palestinian American living in Ohio — confirmed his brother Qusai Abu Rida and nephew were trapped inside with barely any water left, relying on leftover well water and a solar panel because settlers cut the lines. They had two to three days of supplies left. No food. No medicine. No way out.The two‑year‑old fell sick. Thieves blocked the ambulance.Vomiting. High fever. A toddler. And thieving “settlers” physically blocked paramedics from reaching her. She only got out the next day after hours of terror. This is the part Western media should be screaming about — but they’re too busy whitewashing “settler” violence as “unrest.” The entire village is under siege.Every entrance to Qusra is blocked by the Israeli army — not to stop settlers, but to stop Palestinians from reaching the besieged families. The whole village is cut off because the thieving parasites decided they want these homes.And here’s the f*****g kicker:An Israeli court supposedly ordered thieves to leave the illegal outpost. So what did the terrorists do?They came back in larger numbers.And what did the terrorist army do?They invaded Qusra, not the outpost.IDF launched a massive invasion of Qusra with armoured cars and a bulldozer.Armored vehicles. Bulldozer. Occupied a Palestinian home as a temporary base.Not to dismantle the settler‑terror tent.Not to protect the besieged families.But to tighten the siege on the village.Why? Because the parasites run the f*****g show with the full backing of the Israeli terrorist army which means the West as well.Western media coverage? B******t.Outside of Al Jazeera, Anadolu, Reuters, AP, and The Guardian, this story is basically invisible.No CNN wall‑to‑wall coverage.No BBC “special report.”No New York Times front page.Nothing.A Palestinian American family is being terrorized in real time, a toddler was denied medical care, settlers cut water and electricity, and the army is helping enforce the siege — and Western outlets are acting like it’s a minor “incident.”Andre’s X account on Twitter (@the_andrey_x) has been documenting the activists trying to break through.He’s been posting footage of activists repeatedly trying to reach the trapped families, getting blocked by settlers and soldiers, being harassed and physical violence against them, showing the outpost expanding, showing the army’s nighttime invasion, showing the bulldozer, showing the occupation of the Palestinian home.This is the kind of reporting Western media should be amplifying — but they won’t, because their masters are the ones doing it.Bottom lineIt’s a village under siege by thieving terrorists who want to steal land, backed by an army that pretends to “intervene” while actually reinforcing the siege.A toddler was denied medical care.Families are starving.Water is cut.Electricity is cut.The parasites are taking the West Bank piece by piece while it obliterates Gaza.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

It’s f*****g disgusting. UNICEF — the agency that’s supposed to protect children, especially the ones being blown apart in Gaza — has handed one of its most sensitive posts to someone who was already investigated for allegedly feeding UN intel to Israeli diplomats. Yahav Lichner, accused of acting like an Israeli mole inside UNFPA, is now running UNICEF’s Washington office. And the UN has said jackshit about this.The UN has a long, filthy habit of burying internal investigations, shielding insiders, and promoting people who should be nowhere near positions of trust. Lichner was accused — by her own colleagues — of leaking confidential UN documents, internal strategies, and diplomatic communications to Israeli officials. According to reporting from The Intercept, staff said she openly aligned herself with Israeli government interests while holding a UN badge. Instead of getting fired and ostracized, they gave her a promotion.Now she’s in Washington, the center of UNICEF’s relationship with the U.S. government, Congress, and the agencies that control billions in global child‑protection funding. This isn’t some local office. This is where all the lobbying happens, where narratives are shaped, where the UN bends or stands. And they put her there. Take a gander who owns the UN huh?It’s disgusting because UNICEF works in Gaza. UNICEF counts dead children. UNICEF documents starvation, trauma, amputations, bombed schools, shattered families. And while Gaza’s children are being killed by Israeli airstrikes, UNICEF hands a top job to a zionist accused of funneling UN intel to the same government responsible for those deaths. How do they expect anyone to trust them after this?UN staff are furious — but only off the record, because speaking publicly gets you punished. They say the appointment feels like a slap in the face, a reminder that the UN’s internal justice system is a joke. Whistleblowers get crushed. Insiders get protected. Investigations disappear. Promotions happen quietly. And the public never hears a word. UNICEF hasn’t explained anything. No statement. No reassurance. No acknowledgment of the investigation. Just silence — another institution that is above any international scrutiny obviously.UNICEF’s credibility depends on neutrality, on trust, on the belief that its leaders aren’t serving any government’s agenda. Putting a zionist with these allegations in charge of the Washington office tells the world exactly how little the UN thinks of its own standards.It’s disgusting. It’s reckless. It's deplorable. It's maddening. Just more proof international law is a damn farce.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication. We feature citizen journalists unapologetically.

Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan have signed a new defence pact that immediately shifts the balance of power across West Asia and South Asia. The agreement, announced in Mecca, creates a formal security framework between three states that have never before committed to collective defence in writing. It is the strongest military alignment among major Muslim‑majority countries in decades, and it arrives at a moment when the region is already under pressure from escalating conflict, shifting alliances, and doubts about external security guarantees.The pact establishes a joint defence mechanism built around a simple principle: an attack on one will be treated as an attack on all. Officials from all three countries insist the agreement is defensive, not aimed at any specific rival, but the timing makes the strategic intent obvious. Iran’s missile strikes on Gulf territory, the U.S.–Israel war on Iran, and the broader collapse of regional stability have pushed Saudi Arabia to seek reliable partners. Turkey brings NATO‑level military strength. Pakistan brings nuclear deterrence and decades of operational experience. Together, they form a bloc that can no longer be ignored.The agreement sets up a permanent secretariat in Saudi Arabia and requires regular coordination between foreign ministers, defence ministers, and military chiefs. It also expands cooperation in defence manufacturing, technology transfer, and intelligence sharing. Turkey’s rapidly growing defence industry — drones, missile systems, electronic warfare — is expected to play a central role. Pakistan’s training programs and battlefield experience will likely be integrated into joint planning. Saudi Arabia, with its financial resources and procurement networks, becomes the anchor.The pact is deliberately flexible. It does not force automatic troop deployment, but it does create a political and military expectation that none of the three states will face a major threat alone. Assistance can range from intelligence support to logistics to full military intervention, depending on the situation. This ambiguity is intentional. It gives each government room to maneuver while still presenting a united front to potential adversaries.The symbolism of signing the agreement in Mecca signals unity, legitimacy, and a message to the wider Muslim world that regional security can be built without relying on Western powers. Saudi Arabia has been openly frustrated with the United States since the attacks on its oil infrastructure in 2019. Turkey has been recalibrating its foreign policy after years of tension with NATO allies. Pakistan has been seeking strategic stability amid economic pressure and regional volatility. The pact gives all three a new platform.There is already speculation about expansion. Egypt has been mentioned as a possible future member. Other states may explore cooperation if the bloc proves effective. Whether this becomes a larger “Islamic NATO” or remains a trilateral framework depends on how the next year unfolds.For now, the Turkey–Saudi–Pakistan defence agreement marks a clear shift: three influential states have decided they will no longer face regional threats alone. It is a new security architecture built from within the region, not imposed from outside. And it will shape the next phase of West Asian and South Asian geopolitics whether other powers like it or not.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

One year ago today, Israel killed Al Jazeera’s Anas al‑Sharif in a targeted drone strike in Gaza City. They struck a press tent. Cameras everywhere. Journalists inside.Anas had already been threatened. Already pressured to leave Gaza. Already told he could escape if he stopped reporting. He refused. Four days later, Israel killed him — along with Mohammed Abu Sultan, Youssef Abu Daqa, Ahmed Abu Taha, and Mahmoud al‑Qudra. Five journalists wiped out in seconds.His last message was: Gaza is being erased, and the world is pretending not to see.A year later, the grief is still raw.Anas weapon was a camera. He filmed families digging their children out of rubble. He filmed neighborhoods flattened. He filmed hunger, grief, and the Gaza's pain.Israel terrorists killed him because he showed the truth.The killing of Gaza’s journalists is systematic.Since October 7, Israel has killed 300+ Palestinian journalists. The killing of these brave journalists have been systematic. This has been a deliberate campaign to blind the world of their war crimes.Anas al‑Sharif’s death was meant to silence Gaza.The terrorists struck a clearly marked media tent. And the world’s response? A couple of statements and condolences that changed nothing... Just lip service. There has been no protection. No consequences. No pressure to stop the killing of the very people documenting the killing.His last words still stand.“Do not be silent.”He knew silence was exactly what he’d get after being martyred.But Gaza remembers him. His colleagues remember him. Every family he interviewed remembers him. Every child he filmed remembers him. We still remember him.Israel terrorists are still killing journalists. The world still remains silent. Nothing has changed a year on…three years on…78 years on.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

Iran war must end. The US has used up 80% of our THAAD missiles and 65% of our Patriots.Well, the first point I would make to you is that before the war started, General Caine was warning Trump that we had limited stocks of munitions, for purposes of waging a war against Iran.And we certainly could not fight a protracted war. But what's happened is we're engaged in a protracted war and it's amazing the extent to which we have depleted our stockpile of sophisticated weaponry.And these weapons are not going to be easy to replace. If you just look at Air Defence Missiles, there are two kinds. One are the THAADS and then the other are the Patriots.We have used up 80% of our THAAD missiles and 65% of our Patriots with regard to, you know, our attack missiles, our smart missiles that you can use for offensive purposes.We've used up 50% of the tomahawks and according to press reports, virtually all of the ATACMs and PrSMs.So the United States has really seriously damaged its inventory of sophisticated weapons that it really needs in places like East Asia, in places like Ukraine and so forth and so on.And I think that someone, who knows who it is, has leaked this information in large part to send out a clear message that the Iran war has to end.And certainly we cannot escalate in that war without even doing more damage to our weapons inventory.–Prof. John MearsheimerWe are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council:Until America corrects its behavior, the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened.Correcting behavior means:1. Never threaten Iran with any language nor insult the sanctities of this nation.2. End the war and aggression against Iran and its allies in Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, and Iraq permanently.3. Lift the naval blockade and withdraw U.S. naval and air forces from the area surrounding Iran.4. Pay the damages for the two aggressive wars imposed against Iran.5. Lift the cruel and illegal sanctions against the Iranian nation.6. Release the frozen and stolen assets of the Iranian people unconditionally.These are the demands of the Iranian people who have been relentlessly present in the squares and streets for 160 days.The Supreme National Security Council will never back down; whether in war or in negotiations.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

It is despicable the way Palestinian citizens of Israel are being told to shrink themselves.Across workplaces in Israel, Palestinian employees are being told to stop speaking Arabic — their own mother tongue — because it might make Jewish customers “uncomfortable.” Managers are demanding it out loud, as if it’s perfectly normal to demand that an entire people mute their identity so someone else doesn’t feel uneasy.Middle East Eye documented cases where Palestinian workers were warned that Arabic could “trigger” people traumatized by October 7th. As if Palestinians — who have lived through decades of state violence, surveillance, land theft, and military rule — are somehow responsible for soothing the emotional fragility of the dominant, violent group of terrorist colonizers. As if their language is a weapon. As if their existence is a provocation.This is a state project.The 2018 Nation-State Law laid the groundwork by stripping Arabic of its official status and declaring that national self-determination in Israel belongs “uniquely to the Jewish people.” That law was a declaration that Palestinians inside Israel are guests in their own homeland — tolerated only when silent, invisible, and obedient.Since the war on Gaza began, the mask has fallen completely. Lawyers say discrimination is now overt. Palestinian employees are monitored, reprimanded, and threatened for speaking Arabic even among themselves. They’re told their language is dangerous. Their identity is destabilizing. Their presence must be softened, diluted, made “palatable” for Jewish comfort.It’s disgusting.A country that claims to be a democracy is policing the language of the Indigenous population. A state that insists it’s “shared” is demanding that one group erase itself so the other can feel safe. This is the very definition of apartheid and ethnic cleansing.Language is not just communication. It’s memory. It’s belonging. It’s the last piece of home Palestinians inside Israel still control. They cannot rewrite discriminatory laws. They cannot stop political crackdowns. But they can speak Arabic to each other, to their children, to their communities. And now even that is being targeted.Suppressing a language is never about words. It’s about power. It’s about who gets to feel at home. It’s about who is allowed to exist without apology.The cases documented by MEE are not isolated. They are part of a long pattern: Arabic downgraded in law. Palestinian political expression punished. Cultural symbols treated as threats. Now workplaces policing casual conversations.The message the colonizing terrorists are conveying: Palestinian identity must be quiet, it needs to be completely erased. All for Jewish comfort.Israel has spent years building the legal and social machinery to make Palestinian erasure feel normal. When a government signals that one group’s identity is secondary, society follows. And when society follows, discrimination becomes casual. Violence is expected as well.Palestinians inside Israel are being told to silence themselves in the land they were born into. Let that absurdity sink in.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication. We feature citizen journalists unapologetically.

The United States is running low on the missiles it needs while the conflict is widening. Reports say Pete Hegseth didn’t fully brief Trump on how depleted key munitions had become, including long‑range guided missiles and air‑defense interceptors. According to the Washington Post, these shortages were part of why Trump held back from authorizing new large‑scale strikes on Iran. Hegseth reportedly blamed Deputy Secretary Stephen Feinberg, though both the White House and Pentagon denied the story. Regardless of the political drama, the core problem is that the U.S. doesn’t have enough missiles for the war it’s fighting.The stockpile issue has been building for years. Precision weapons are expensive, slow to manufacture, and rely on supply chains that have been strained since the pandemic. The war in Ukraine drained inventories faster than production could keep up. Now the confrontation with Iran and its network of allied militias is stretching those inventories even further. While Washington tries to rebuild its stockpiles, Iran‑aligned forces are expanding the conflict. In Yemen, Ansarallah (Houthi) fighters launched a major attack on Saudi‑backed government troops, killing at least 45 soldiers and wounding at least 50 more. It was one of the largest escalations in Yemen in years. Ansarallah have grown more confident and more capable, and they’re clearly willing to push harder while the U.S. is distracted and stretched thin.Across the region, Iran’s partners are moving in sync. Groups in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen are testing U.S. positions, striking at bases, targeting allies, and opening new fronts. Every attack forces Washington to respond, and every response burns through more of the missiles the U.S. is already short on. Iran understands the pressure points and is exploiting them.The economic fallout is already visible. Gas prices remain under pressure because instability in the Gulf always hits energy markets. Shipping disruptions in the Red Sea add to global inflation. Investors see a conflict spreading across multiple countries with no clear containment and adjust their expectations accordingly. A widening war becomes a global economic risk, not just a regional one.The strategic picture is bleak. The U.S. is trying to rebuild missile stockpiles while fighting a conflict that keeps expanding. Iran‑aligned forces are opening new fronts faster than Washington can find an offramp for. Allies are exposed. Bases are vulnerable. Markets are nervous. This is only what winning looks like from Trump's pov.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication. We feature citizen journalists unapologetically.

When Zohran Mamdani won the 2025 New York mayoral race, it wasn’t just a local upset — it was a political earthquake for anyone invested in shielding Israel from criticism. Mamdani’s open support for Palestinian rights made him a rare figure in American politics: a mayor who refused to soften his stance on Gaza. And that’s when the digital interference patterns started something far bigger than domestic backlash.Across Europe and Africa, state cyber agencies have been documenting a sinister trend: Israeli-linked private intelligence firms running covert online operations against politicians who criticize Israel’s conduct in Gaza. France’s national disinformation watchdog, Viginum, publicly identified one such firm — BlackCore — as the architect of coordinated smear campaigns, bot networks, and fake-account swarms designed to manipulate political discourse in multiple countries.They traced hundreds of fake accounts, thousands of coordinated comments, and targeted disinformation aimed at politicians who condemned Israel’s actions. France saw it during its municipal elections. Scotland saw it during the Holyrood race. Angola and Togo saw it too. The same Israeli-linked operation was active during the 2025 New York municipal election — the one Mamdani won.France listed New York by name.The pattern is disgustingly the same…same page out of the old playbook. When a politician speaks out about Gaza, Israeli-aligned influence networks mobilize. They don’t debate — they converge and attack. They distort facts. They flood comment sections, plant narratives, and manufacture the illusion of public outrage. It’s not organic. It’s a foreign digital operation built to punish dissent.And Mamdani is the very definition of it.He’s a mayor who openly challenged Israel’s conduct. He’s a mayor who pushed legislation to restrict police use of fake online accounts — the same kind of infrastructure foreign interference firms rely on. He’s a mayor who threatens both the domestic surveillance ecosystem and the foreign influence ecosystem. That makes him a double target.New York’s policing apparatus complicates the picture even further. The NYPD has admitted to using “internet attribution management” systems — essentially high-grade sock-puppet tools — to run covert online investigations. Mamdani tried to outlaw that practice as a state assembly member. Now he’s mayor, and he has the authority to scrutinize or dismantle those systems. That puts him directly in the path of institutions that prefer operating in the dark.So when Israeli-linked bot farms, intelligence contractors, and cyber-surveillance firms show up around Mamdani’s name, it’s not paranoia. It’s the same machinery that European governments have already documented — now appearing in an American election.It comes down to this: criticize Israel’s war on Gaza, and you become a target of its digital interference machine. Mamdani didn’t just inherit a city. He inherited a fight with a foreign influence ecosystem that has already been caught manipulating elections across continents…for decades.

Rep. Max Miller (R–OH) ended his livestream today insisting he will not withdraw from the race for Ohio’s 7th Congressional District, even as serious domestic‑violence allegations continue to follow him.The allegations come from his former partner, Stephanie Grisham, who has publicly accused Miller of physical assault. Grisham alleges that during an argument, Miller pinned her against a wall, grabbed her by the shoulders, shoved her, and slapped her across the face. She has described the incident as terrifying and says she left because she feared the violence would escalate. These details have been repeated in interviews and in her memoir, where she characterizes Miller’s behavior as volatile and physically aggressive.According to reporting from outlets such as The Washington Post and The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Grisham’s account includes specific claims of physical intimidation, rage, and assault. No police report was filed at the time, and Miller has not been criminally charged. He denies all allegations, calling them false, defamatory, and politically motivated.Despite the seriousness of the accusations — which involve claims of physical assault and domestic violence — Miller used today’s livestream to declare he will remain in the race and “fight through the lies.” In any other time in history, allegations like this would have ended a political career.

1. Operation Cast‑Thy‑BreadIsrael’s 1950s covert poisoning operation targeting Palestinian and Lebanese communities. Israeli agents placed contaminated bread in villages to trigger illness and displacement. It was part of a larger strategy to destabilize and terrorize populations seen as obstacles to Zionist expansion.2. Deir Yassin MassacreIn April 1948, Zionist militias stormed the Palestinian village of Deir Yassin and killed more than 100 civilians — men, women, children, elderly. Survivors described executions, mutilations, and bodies dumped in pits. The massacre triggered mass panic and flight across Palestine.3. Lydda Death MarchAlso in 1948, Israeli forces expelled tens of thousands of Palestinians from Lydda and Ramle in extreme heat. People walked for miles without water, food, or rest. Hundreds died along the way — dehydration, shootings, exhaustion. It was ethnic cleansing carried out in broad daylight.4. Kafr Qasim MassacreIn 1956, Israeli border police shot and killed 49 Palestinian civilians returning home from work — unaware a curfew had been imposed. The victims included children and elders. Soldiers were lightly punished, and the state treated the massacre as an administrative mistake rather than a crime.5. Sabra and Shatila MassacreIn 1982, Israel surrounded the Palestinian refugee camps in Beirut and allowed allied militias to enter. Over two days, they slaughtered thousands of civilians. Israel’s military watched, lit the night sky with flares, and facilitated the killers’ movement. No one was held accountable.6. Ibrahimi Mosque MassacreIn 1994, an American‑Israeli settler walked into the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron during dawn prayers and opened fire, killing 29 worshippers and injuring more than 100. Israeli forces then killed additional Palestinians during protests. The mosque was later divided, punishing the victims instead of the perpetrator.7. Killing of Iman al‑HamsIn 2004, Israeli soldiers shot a 13‑year‑old girl in Rafah, claiming she was “suspicious.” After she fell, an officer approached and fired multiple rounds into her body to “confirm the kill.” The military cleared him. Her schoolbooks were still in her backpack.8. Operation Cast Lead / White PhosphorusIn 2008–2009, Israel bombarded Gaza, killing more than 1,300 Palestinians, including hundreds of children. White phosphorus — a chemical that burns flesh to the bone — was dropped on schools, homes, and UN shelters. Entire neighborhoods were flattened.9. Great March of ReturnFrom 2018 onward, Palestinians in Gaza marched near the fence demanding their right to return to their lands. Israeli snipers shot them systematically — journalists, medics, disabled people, teenagers. More than 200 were killed, thousands maimed. Many lost limbs from sniper fire designed to shatter bone.10. Killing of Hind RajabIn 2024, six‑year‑old Hind Rajab was trapped in a car surrounded by Israeli fire. She called emergency responders begging for help. When medics tried to reach her, Israel shelled the ambulance. Hind’s body was found days later. Her voice recordings became one of the genocide’s most haunting testaments.“Israel” has no right to existWe are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.

“You want to tell me that the best use of 3.3 billion dollars is to go and kill other people? I think people are realising that rather than send our money to do heinous things to a foreign government, maybe we could keep it here to do good things to our government.”The Gaza genocide rewired the political landscape in the U.S., especially in Michigan. People weren’t just horrified — they were done being dragged into Israel’s war with their tax dollars and their silence. The “uncommitted” vote in 2024 was the middle finger to the Biden administration’s defense of Israel’s assault, and it showed voters were ready to punish anyone who kept enabling it.AIPAC saw the danger immediately. They dumped money into Michigan like their very existence depended on Stevens winning. Nearly $60 million spent to stop Abdul El‑Sayed — the largest amount they’ve ever thrown at a single race. And that’s only the spending you can see. The dark money channels, the corporate PAC pipelines, the donor networks that don’t disclose anything — none of that is counted.Meanwhile, AIPAC has poured $36 million into backing Rep. Haley Stevens, building her up as their reliable vote. Her public record makes it obvious why: she has repeatedly declared her unwavering support for Israel, voting in line with every major pro-Israel resolution and publicly stating that “Israel’s security is non-negotiable.” She’s the kind of Democrat AIPAC wants — predictable, loyal, and willing to toe the line no matter what Israel does…slaughtering babies notwithstanding.But Michigan isn’t putting up with that sadistic s**t. The Gaza war broke the old political machinery. People watched the bombings, the starvation, the justifications, and they snapped. They don’t want their tax dollars funding a foreign government’s war crimes. They don’t want their politicians bought by a lobby that treats American democracy like a it's their little play thing.Polls now show El‑Sayed leading Stevens by 8 to 14 points, depending on the survey. The gap keeps widening. Arab‑American communities, Black voters, young voters, and the “uncommitted” bloc have coalesced around him in a way that looks less like a campaign and more like a political shift.This is a referendum on the old order. Michigan is showing what happens when voters stop being afraid of the lobby that has dominated American politics for decades. AIPAC can burn through millions, but they can’t buy back the public’s trust. America is sick of Israel’s chokehold on U.S. politics, sick of watching billions flow to a foreign military while people at home can’t afford rent, healthcare, or basic dignity. They are disgusted with all these Israel shills voting to use their money to bomb and kill countless innocent lives halfway across the world.We are a fully reader - and subscriber - supported publication.
