"I didn't see a single building standing the entire time I was in Gaza. I didn't see one building intact or standing.

(πŸ“’) ALERT: See images. Mike is Director of the Center on Conscience and War.

Coupled with other signals I've been writing aboutβ€”and a Post report suggesting a possible attack on Kharg Islandβ€”this is...bad.

On Sunday I'll publish a full book linking the Trump-Epstein Scandal to the Second Iran War.

LA City Council’s City President Marqueece Harris-Dawson says he has been pulled over four times while a member of the council; the most recent was this week. He missed a committee meeting because of the stop, according to him.

Among the questions: β€œhow do you have this vehicle,” according to him.

An Epidemic of β€˜Victory Disease’ The president is pointing to the American military’s excellence as though that somehow constitutes a strategy in itself.

For years, strategists have warned national leaders against the temptations of "victory disease," the belief that winning battles means they're winning the war. Leaders throughout history have made this mistake, and Trump seems to be making it now.

Fascinating on the critical minerals consumed in US weapons in the past week and the time it will take to replenish those. Gallium is a particular concern.

Well put @stewartprest.ca. "So, how does the city move on from this moment? Councillors cannot trust the mayor. Voters can’t trust him either. That is why I think it is best for everyone, including Sim, for him to accept full responsibility, and do so in a way that shows he means it: by resigning."

Such depths of disregard & dehumanization by officers of the State. His wife, Fatimah Abdul Roshid, & sons were waiting to pick him up: β€œWe were ready with food, clothing, everything,” Abdul Roshid said. β€œWe thought he would be able to break fast with us. He was so close, so close to my hand.”
