“I’ve written a lot about the issue of Palestine being a model for the surveillance and weapons industry, and it’s now exported globally. What I am already hearing is that what Israel and America is doing in Gaza is looked at by other countries as a model,”

The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced on Tuesday that it launched a salvo of Q20 rockets targeting the Zionist settlements of Nir Yitzhak and Mivtahim.
The rockets were fired from an area close to where military vehicles were operating north of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
On Saturday, June 28, al-Qassam announced its fighters had targeted four Zionist engineering excavators with al-Yassin 105 shells in the town of Aabasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis, setting the equipment ablaze.
The group confirmed that its fighters observed casualties among occupation soldiers at the site and noted that Zionist helicopters landed in the area to evacuate the wounded.
In a separate operation, the al-Qassam fighters also targeted a Merkava tank and a D9 military bulldozer with powerful roadside explosive devices in the same area.
Meanwhile, the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, announced two operations on Tuesday against Zionist gatherings and vehicles in Khan Younis.
In a joint operation with al-Qassam, the al-Quds fighters shelled a Zionist military gathering east of Khuza’a, north of Khan Younis, using multiple mortar shells.
In another operation, the group reported detonating a shock-activated explosive device successfully targeting a military vehicle near Street 5, north of Khan Younis.
These operations come as the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza continues to repel Zionist incursions, engaging in confrontations and ambushes that have resulted in casualties among occupation forces and damaged their equipment.
The Resistance activity unfolds amid the occupations ongoing genocidal war on Gaza, which includes systematic killing, starvation, siege, and forced displacement, in blatant disregard for international appeals.
The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) announced on Tuesday evening a series of military operations against Zionist targets in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree said that the YAF’s Rocket Force launched a top-tier operation targeting al-Lydd Airport, also known as Ben Gurion Airport, in occupied Yafa using a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile.
The operation successfully hit its target, resulting in the fleeing of millions of Zionist settlers to shelters and the complete halt of airport operations, Saree confirmed.
Simultaneously, Saree mentioned that the YAF’s UAV unit executed three military operations targeting sensitive Zionist sites in Yafa, Askalan, and Umm al-Rashrash, using three drones.
The spokesperson reiterated that the latest operations come in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and their Resistance fighters and in retaliation for the ongoing genocidal crimes committed by the Zionist occupation against the Gaza Strip.
He added that these strikes come as part of Yemen’s sustained support for Gaza and its categorical rejection of the genocidal war being waged against its people.
The Yemeni Armed Forces reaffirm that this Ummah will not abandon its responsibilities toward the oppressed Palestinian people, Saree affirmed, underscoring that the YAF will continue their operations until the war on Gaza ceases and the siege imposed on the enclave is lifted.
According to a correspondent from the Zionist Army Radio, Yemen has launched approximately 53 ballistic missiles toward the occupation since the resumption of the war on Gaza nearly three and a half months ago.

One of the major problems I see with the younger generations is that even though many of them will place blame on the boomers for many of their financial issues (correctly), many of them will still somehow think that going to college was worth it in spite of the crippling debt and wasted years on a degree that gets them no job.
It's okay, you can admit it was the wrong decision. The boomers led you astray there, so you don't have to defend that choice. You were lied to about that too.

@Nanook I see you're continuing to ignore even the facts I put in front of you. Your story about pre-history does not seem to match those facts.
As for even further back, i.e. "500 million years ago", well you've clearly not kept up with the current science, as per Tom's demonstration.
Meanwhile it is becoming clearer and clearer that rapid changes in CO₂ levels will change the climate too fast for plants and animals to migrate and evolve and survive, even when "fast" is considered on geological timescales, never mind the abrupt changes we humans are causing. We simply don't know where the tipping points are for these problems within the current conditions on Earth, so even threatening to continue as-is is a risk beyond insane.
Your apparent claim that the continuing use of fossil fuels will somehow cause us to succeed faster on fusion and better fission reactors is so blindingly backwards I can't even begin to figure out where to start. In fact it is clearly stated by all of those working on such technology that one of their primary motivations for doing so is to be able to replace fossil fuel use! Indeed Bill Gates is one of the large investors supporting nuclear reactor technology development.
Conflating deaths from the cold with having any part of the problem is gas-lighting.
BTW, who is this Klaus? I assume by "Gates" you mean Bill Gates?

This article critically examines the disturbing testimonies of Israeli soldiers involved in the #Gaza offensive, many of whom have drawn explicit parallels between their own actions and those of Nazi soldiers during World War II. Through verified first-hand accounts, credible human rights reports, and international legal standards, this analysis reveals how #Israel's military campaign in Gaza has crossed into the territory of systemic war crimes, carried out with impunity under the guise of security. The moral and legal implications of these acts challenge the international community’s tolerance of sustained and brutal violations of human rights.
Introduction
The Israeli military's ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip has reached a tipping point—not just in terms of human suffering and infrastructural devastation, but also in moral clarity. In a shocking turn, several Israeli soldiers have publicly likened their conduct in Gaza to that of Nazi forces during the Holocaust, a parallel long considered taboo within Israeli discourse. These admissions, reported by Haaretz, illuminate the horrifying extent to which violence has been normalized and rationalized within the ranks of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), even as the civilian population of Gaza is subjected to what many experts deem deliberate and criminal acts of warfare.
Testimonies of Atrocity: The Nazi Analogy
In interviews published by Haaretz, multiple IDF soldiers confessed to feelings of deep unease and moral disintegration during operations in Gaza. One soldier, in particular, stated, “I felt like a Nazi in Gaza. It looked exactly like we were the Nazis and they were the Jews.”1 Such a statement is not merely self-indicting—it exposes a grotesque inversion of historical memory. Soldiers describe firing indiscriminately, targeting unarmed civilians, and obliterating entire neighborhoods without strategic justification. Civilians were shot while trying to retrieve food at aid stations, and the command structure often issued vague or open-ended fire orders with little concern for civilian life12.
The Dehumanization of Palestinians
These testimonies underscore the systemic dehumanization of Palestinians within the Israeli military apparatus. The logic of occupation and collective punishment has replaced any semblance of proportional response or adherence to international humanitarian law. Palestinians in Gaza are not seen as civilians, but as potential threats to be neutralized en masse. This ideological framework mirrors the totalizing worldviews of other regimes historically condemned for ethnic violence—hence the disturbing Nazi comparison by Israeli soldiers themselves.
War Crimes and Humanitarian Catastrophe
According to data compiled by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor and corroborated by Al Jazeera and Human Rights Watch, more than 500 Palestinians were killed in May 2025 alone while waiting for humanitarian aid, not as casualties of crossfire, but as targets in supposedly secure zones34. The Israeli government has repeatedly bombed aid distribution centers, refugee camps, and UN schools, while enforcing a siege that has led to famine-like conditions. UN officials have warned that Gaza is facing a man-made famine, the result of deliberate obstruction of food, fuel, and medicine5.
These actions—targeting civilians, destroying civilian infrastructure, and using starvation as a method of warfare—constitute grave breaches under the Geneva Conventions, and are classified as war crimes under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC)67.
Legal and Ethical Implications
The repeated and systematic nature of these crimes places Israel in violation of multiple international laws. Yet the continued political and military support from Western powers, especially the United States, has shielded Israeli leaders and military officials from accountability. This impunity emboldens further atrocities and undermines the international legal order. Calls by organizations such as Amnesty International, UNRWA, and B’Tselem for investigations into these abuses have largely been met with diplomatic deflection or outright denial by Israeli authorities89.
Conclusion
When Israeli soldiers themselves begin to draw parallels to the Nazi regime, it is a dire alarm—not just for Israeli society, but for the international community. These testimonies are not anomalies but reflections of a system that devalues Palestinian life. The world must reckon with the dual reality: that a state born from the trauma of #genocide is now inflicting mass suffering on a besieged population. Moral clarity demands more than condemnation—it requires accountability

TRUMP ET NETANYAHU ONT BEAU CLAMER VICTOIRE !
Quand Les Morts S’accumulent, Les Mensonges Trébuchent
(par un observateur qui a de la mémoire)
On nous avait parlé de 25 morts. Une riposte maîtrisée, nous disait-on, à peine un frisson sur l’échine de l’État hébreu. Mais voilà que la vérité se dessine, ou du moins, un fragment bien plus consistant : 1 226 morts côté israélien, selon... les propres sources israéliennes.
Un carnage soigneusement planqué sous le tapis :
6 généraux évaporés,
32 agents missiles désintégrés,
78 membres du renseignement effacés,
27 marins coulés,
198 aviateurs rayés du ciel,
462 soldats de terre engloutis,
et 423 civils... qu’on ne pourra pas ressusciter avec des slogans patriotiques.
Et pendant ce temps-là, #Trump tweete victoire, et #Netanyahu éructe gloriole. Deux caïds de pacotille, aussi courageux que des coqs derrière des vitres blindées. À les entendre, c’est à croire que c’est Téhéran qui supplie pour la paix… sauf que Tel-Aviv a fumé sous les missiles, et que Khamenei n’a pas bronché.
Alors quoi ? Le #Mossad s’est trompé de cible ? Les renseignements étaient made in PowerPoint ? Ou bien la vieille arrogance coloniale a cru qu’en face, ce serait un #Gaza bis, à écraser entre deux drones ?
Erreur monumentale.
L’ #Iran a frappé fort, méthodiquement, et a montré ce que c’est qu’une riposte stratégique grandeur nature. Israël, humilié, tente de recoller les morceaux et de garder la face. Mais les chiffres, eux, ne mentent pas.
Et quand les cercueils rentrent par centaines, même les faux héros ferment leur gueule.

Il y a 84 ans, le 30 juin #1941, l'Organisation des nationalistes ukrainiens déclenchait l'un des #pogroms les plus sauvages de l' #histoire moderne contre les #Juifs de #Lvov. Pendant trois jours, la ville devint un véritable enfer.
Hommes, femmes et même enfants juifs furent traînés dans les rues, matraqués à coups de matraque, frappés à coups de pied jusqu'à en briser les os, abattus à bout portant et violés ; certains furent tués par de simples civils ukrainiens transformés en monstres sanguinaires. Des femmes enceintes avaient le ventre ouvert.
Des nourrissons étaient écrasés contre les murs. Des victimes étaient forcées de ramper nues dans les caniveaux, fouettées, humiliées et crachées dessus. Les personnes qui ont fait cela sont aujourd’hui des héros nationaux de l’ #Ukraine.
84 years ago, on June 30th, 1941, the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists ignited one of the most savage pogroms in modern history against the Jews of Lvov. For three days, the city became a hellscape. Jewish men, women, and even children were dragged into the streets, bludgeoned with clubs, kicked until their bones shattered, shot point-blank, and raped; some to death by ordinary Ukrainian civilians turned bloodthirsty monsters.
Pregnant women had their bellies sliced open. Infants were smashed against walls. Victims were forced to crawl naked through gutters while being whipped, humiliated, and spat on.
The people who did this are national heroes of Ukraine today.

No surprises here—Zohran Mamdani’s lead has grown even larger. And the Democratic Party establishment is still losing their minds.
His victory confirms what most of us have long suspected: that establishment Dems care more about appeasing their big-money donors than their base. And the base, quite frankly, is sick of their shit.
We deserve better than a Republican-lite party. We deserve a party that actually fights for us. Instead of trying to cut Mamdani down, they ought to lift him up—and follow his lead.
