One thing that strikes me about the Palestinian Holocaust is how united the people are against it - and how universally the ruling class has mobilized to see it to completion. Palestine is a proof of concept - if the ruling class can get away with live streaming a genocide through its entirety despite overwhelming opposition from the people, they can get away with anything.

We are at a turning point; the rise of AI and its increasing usage by the police, military, etc is rapidly robbing the working class of our power. If we do not act now, we may never have the strength to act again; if Palestine falls, we will all fall with it.

Since the beginning of the Al-Aqsa Flood, the main concern of Western governments has been to prevent the defeat of the #Zionist entity both militarily and politically. Yes, the primary concern is economic interests. But beyond that there is the Paradigm. The Western (and also the eastern) #capitalist hegemony does not want an example of poor human beings, oppressed for decades, and subjected to constant humiliation, standing up. If the #Palestinian #Resistance wins, it will mean that we, the oppressed, here in the West, can win too. This is one reason why we see small States (based on imperialist hegemony) taking a protective position for the Zionist entity. If this is defeated, the power of their governments will be challenged the next day. And if the Power of the small State Entities is challenged, it will be the turn of the driving forces of #imperialism.
So if the Palestinian Resistance wins, then we will have an example of how our empires could fall.
Finally it's a great opportunity for the oppressed people around the world to shout: Victory for the Palestinian Resistance!

The control of sources is the main weapon of the occupation. To justify the illegal stealing of natural resources #zioNaZis send the gangs of settlers to do it. Then, they are simply given to the state.

"The Jerusalem Governorate Water Authority stated that a group of Israeli settlers stormed all the Ain Samia wells last night and vandalized them, causing significant destruction and a complete control over the wells.

The Authority explained that these wells are the sole source of water supply for dozens of villages and population communities across the West Bank. It confirmed that complaints had been submitted to all official bodies, but the settlers’ attacks continue to escalate frequently and brutally. The Authority warned that if an immediate end is not put to these assaults, the entire region is at risk of an unprecedented water disaster.

Illegal migrants should be nowhere near schools, educational establishments or anything to do with children.

They shouldn’t be in the country full stop, but to place these unvetted young men near young boys and girls is reckless, irresponsible and downright dangerous. We don’t know who they are, or where they have come from. It is simply not safe.

These men must be kept away from children.

Not all of them are bad people, but it’s a risk we just cannot take.

This is not racist. This is not far right. This is about safety. Children’s safety.

We need to set up secure detention facilities where these men can be held until their removal can be arranged.

If the facilities don’t exist, build them.

Hospitals sprouted out of the ground overnight for COVID, do the same for the illegals.

Imagine how parents living near one of these hotels feel? Especially those with young daughters? Having these unvetted men roaming their streets?

It's disgraceful. It is NOT safe.

They have broken the law. They are in our country illegally. Detain them, deport them.

But above all else in the short term, please keep them away from children.

A mass mobilization took place at the port of #Piraeus, with hundreds of people gathering since dawn to prevent the unloading of a military cargo destined for the apartheid state of #Israel and its use for the ongoing massacre in #Gaza.

In their call the dockers pointed out that:

"The ship Ever Golden, with its military cargo with final destination Israel, is expected to dock at Piers 2 & 3 of Piraeus on 14 July Monday at 07:30 am. This is cargo that will be used to continue the slaughter of civilians, the bombing of hospitals, schools, children, infants and women. The port of Piraeus is NOT and will NOT be allowed to become an outpost of the #USA, #NATO or the #EU.

Our goal is: to block in practice the unloading and prevent the transport of this deadly cargo. We will not paint our hands with blood, we will not be accomplices and at the same time targets of retaliation."

IOF obviously targets children. Someone in the West got a bit angry (not to much, because they afraid to be under mossad surveillance in the end) and asked about accountancy. No punishments. No, no. Our leaders in the West don't go so far. They leave Israeli soldiers, who are accused by various organisations, to walk free without accountability in the West. Back in the story, Israel answered that killed these children by accident. They call accident the 40% of total casualties in #Gaza.

Premium Tiles vs. Standard Tiles: Why Quality Matters


 A good tiles supplier will guide you based on your project’s goals, not just the price tag. If they can’t explain the differences clearly, find someone who can.

Walk into a tile shop, and you’ll soon wonder: “Why do some tiles cost so much more than others?” Two tiles might look nearly identical, yet one is priced much higher. Is “premium” just a buzzword from the tiles supplier, or is there a real difference? Let’s break it down.

Built for Strength


At first glance, premium tiles and standard tiles might seem similar—same size, same color, same basic look. But their construction is where they diverge. Premium tiles are denser, pressed with more force, and fired at higher temperatures. This makes them more resistant to moisture, cracks, and wear, making them ideal for busy areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or entryways.

Standard tiles can work in low-traffic spots, but they often show wear—chips, cracks, or fading—faster in demanding spaces.

Performance That Endures


Premium tiles are designed to handle life’s challenges. Their finishes provide better grip on wet surfaces, resist stains from spills like wine or oil, and stand up to scratches from furniture or foot traffic. Standard tiles might look fine at first, but they can dull, stain, or scuff up quicker than expected, especially in high-use areas.

These differences become clear over time, as cheaper tiles start to lose their charm.

Consistency for a Seamless Look


Premium tiles are crafted with precision, ensuring each tile is nearly identical in size, shape, and shade. This leads to clean grout lines and a polished installation. Standard tiles, however, can vary slightly from batch to batch, which can disrupt your layout or throw off a pattern, especially in large or intricate designs.

These small inconsistencies can turn a smooth project into a frustrating one.

Quality from the Source


Premium tiles often come from regions with a rich tile-making tradition, like Italy, Spain, or parts of Turkey, where high-quality materials and strict standards are standard. Standard tiles are frequently mass-produced to keep costs low, sometimes at the expense of quality.

A reliable tiles supplier will be transparent about these differences and help you choose based on your project’s needs. If they push the priciest option without explanation, it’s time to shop elsewhere.

Less Upkeep, More Longevity


Premium tiles are built to last with minimal maintenance. They resist stains, wear, and fading, keeping their look for years. Standard tiles often require more care—frequent sealing, extra cleaning, or earlier replacement—which can add up over time.

While standard tiles are cheaper upfront, their higher upkeep costs can make them less of a bargain in the long run.

The Right Tile for the Space


Your choice depends on where the tiles are going. Premium tiles are perfect for high-traffic or wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, or patios, where durability is key. For low-use areas like a guest room or a decorative backsplash, standard tiles might suffice—if you’re okay with their limitations.

A Premium Feel


Premium tiles feel different—solid, smooth, and well-made. Standard tiles can feel thin or rough, with edges that might seem cheap. These subtle differences affect how a space feels, much like high-quality furniture elevates a home.

The Bottom Line


Premium tiles aren’t always necessary, but they shine in durability, consistency, and ease of care. For spaces that see heavy use or need to last for years, they’re a smart investment.

A good tiles supplier Singapore will guide you based on your project’s goals, not just the price tag. If they can’t explain the differences clearly, find someone who can.

Tiles are about more than looks—they’re about how they perform over time. That’s where premium tiles consistently come out on top.

"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. But what happens when the learned fisherman finds no fish at all? This has been one of numerous problems plaguing the fisherfolk around the Aral Sea, a shallow basin of salt water

The “Economy of Genocide” Report: A Reckoning Beyond Rhetoric
counterpunch.org/2025/07/14/th…

"Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in occupied Palestine, stands as a testament to the notion of speaking truth to power. This “power” is not solely embodied by Israel or even the United States, but by an international community whose collective relevance has tragically failed

"Twenty years ago, Israel unilaterally disengaged from Gaza after the post-1967 years of occupation and settlement. An overriding factor governing the decision to withdraw was the issue of demography. With a population of over two million Palestinians, Gaza has always represented a significant part of a
