As always, the Irish speak nothing but facts.

How many more innocent civilians have to be killed by Israel before you condemn that for it?

That is a genocide.

That this is a crime on all accounts.

And deserves to be punished to the full extent off the law.

So odd and cultish.

The old tropes Israel employed to justify itself were always more fiction than reality. Israel long ago became an apartheid state. It directly controls through its illegal Jewish-only settlements, restricted military zones and army compounds, over 60 percent of the West Bank and has de facto control over the rest. There are 65 laws that directly or indirectly discriminate against Palestinian citizens of Israel and those living in the OPT.

Gaza, the world’s largest open-air prison, will continue to be more frequently bombed and shelled. Its infrastructure, including its water, electrical and sewage systems, as well as fuel storage facilities, will be targeted for obliteration. Gazans and their fellow Palestinians in the West Bank will be subject to ever tightening blockades, reducing them to a level of subsistence that will be one step above starvation. Instead of attempting to cover up the murder of Palestinians by Jewish settlers and the Israeli army, the new government will openly celebrate the atrocities.

Israel Got Away with Murdering an American Journalist: COI #328

On COI #328, Kyle Anzalone and Connor Freeman cover progressives’ demands for a response to Israeli soldiers’ murder of a Palestinian-American journalist, NATO’s classification of China as a “challenge,” and the latest Iran deal news.

Kyle breaks down Representative Rashida Tlaib’s calls for an investigation into Tel Aviv’s blatant murder of Al-Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh and for progressives to rethink their support of Israel.

Kyle also discusses NATO Secretary General’s comments that Beijing is a “challenge” to the military alliance and NATO’s increasing aggressiveness towards China.

Connor talks about the Israeli pressure to shut down negotiations aimed at returning Washington to the JCPOA, as well as recent Iranian offers to ink a prisoner swap deal with the United States

The CIA's Secret Sites in Somalia

Renditions, an underground prison and a new CIA base are elements of an intensifying US war in Somalia.

As part of its expanding counterterrorism program in Somalia, the CIA also uses a secret prison buried in the basement of Somalia’s National Security Agency (NSA) headquarters, where prisoners suspected of being Shabab members or of having links to the group are held. Some of the prisoners have been snatched off the streets of Kenya and rendered by plane to Mogadishu. While the underground prison is officially run by the Somali NSA, US intelligence personnel pay the salaries of intelligence agents and also directly interrogate prisoners. The existence of both facilities and the CIA role was uncovered by The Nation during an extensive on-the-ground investigation in Mogadishu. [...]

The CIA presence in Mogadishu is part of Washington’s intensifying counterterrorism focus on Somalia, which includes targeted strikes by US Special Operations forces, drone attacks and expanded surveillance operations. The US agents “are here full time,” a senior Somali intelligence official told me. [...]

According to well-connected Somali sources, the CIA is reluctant to deal directly with Somali political leaders, who are regarded by US officials as corrupt and untrustworthy. Instead, the United States has Somali intelligence agents on its payroll. Somali sources with knowledge of the program described the agents as lining up to receive $200 monthly cash payments from Americans. “They support us in a big way financially,” says the senior Somali intelligence official. “They are the largest [funder] by far.”

Friendly reminder that Israel plans on demolishing the historical city of Lifta to create new housing for settlers and a shopping district

The city of Lifta was abandoned when the Zionists forced its people to evacuate and its ruins serve as a reminder of the Nakba

And in Israels endless endeavor to pretend we never existed, they intend to tear it down and erase another reminder of their crimes and of Palestinian history and culture

Israel plans to build villas on the ruins of a village that has become a symbol of the Nakba
