The Iran War is a Defining Moment for the Future of the Houthis - Sana'a Center For Strategic Studies The ongoing Iran War is reshaping the region in ways that exceed all prior projections, compelling all parties involved in the conflict, or affected by it, to reposition themselves and reconsider the ...

“Houthis’ current absence.. reflects differing calculations within the group, weighing the cost of joining a broad regional war against the risks to the power they have built in Yemen.. if conflict evolves into a prolonged, open-ended regional confrontation.”

Even by Trump standards of galactic batshittery, that press conference was an all-timer.

SUMMARY:
- The war is over & just beginning.
- We may have sold Tomahawks to our enemy so they could kill their own children.
- The new leader of Iran must be eternal & internal
- No mutilisashion of children.

The war that is not a war that is just getting started and might last until September is pretty much done and we’re also going to seize a strait we don’t control and maybe kill more leaders if we don’t like them

The Palestinian residents of Susya clearly hear the air raid sirens from the nearby Israeli settlement and the thunder of missiles in the sky. But they have no shelter. They stay in a tent that was torched last week when dozens of settlers raided the West Bank village

Minab school bombing: how the worst mass casualty event of the Iran war unfolded – a visual guide A strike on Shajareh Tayyebeh school during the US-Israeli bombing campaign killed up to 168 people. The Guardian has pieced together the incident and its aftermath using verified footage and images f...

"[the] school was adjacent to a cluster of buildings that form the local [IRGC] barracks and support buildings (...) There is no indication, however, that the school is in any sense a military-use building"

This is one of my pettier impulses but I want the record to reflect just how often this motherfucker said that Kamala Harris was the pro-war candidate in 2024.

Four days ago, the President posted a video of the Obamas as apes.

Mainstream media has just moved on.

They always just move on.

The mom who we all saw turning the wheel and trying to drive away was actually a domestic terrorist trying to run over a poor ICE agent, and now the nurse who we all saw coming to the aid of another ICE victim was actually a deranged shooter who had to be taken down.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. 

Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

Text by Thomas Chatterton Williams, reading, "Anyone without a strange axe to grind (even that journeyman 
@jodyrosen.bsky.social
) knows there’s nothing remotely objectionable about advocating for basic decency in a country where Good’s murder is welcomed and Luigi Mangione is lionized."

Except, @chatterton.bsky.social, one of these two people is facing both state and federal charges, including the death penalty.

Whereas Jonathan Ross is being actively protected by an administration that started defaming Renee Good before her body was cold.

That is a meaningful difference!

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred.
It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

We have a cabinet minister overseeing torture & abuse of people captured in international waters, prisoners held w/no food & water, 🇸🇪 embassy staff merely take notes (unclear if they lodged a protest w/Israel or not)...

And several EU govts still hesitate when it comes to the ICC arrest warrant?

Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

Fascism moves fast - and it kills, too, like the man who died in Trump's jail without his heart medication.
