news

At this rate I'm convinced that my attention is the one thing holding the fabric of reality together, because shit always happens when I'm not Monitoring the Situation. As long as I'm here collapsing the wave function, World War III will continue to be averted.

Yesterday, Palestinian Tribes, Clans, and Families announced their intention to secure aid convoys to ensure their safe delivery to needy families. They warned citizens at gathering at aid points, "death traps," as over 500 martyrs have ascended at these distribution points in recent weeks.

They emphasized that aid would be distributed through official international channels to guarantee fair and dignified access for all, vowing that any attempt to loot the aid would be considered a crime against the Palestinian people.

Today, we confirm that the clans and tribes successfully secured the entry of aid trucks into Gaza City and the northern Strip. Flour, food aid, and medicines were delivered to organizations for distribution.

The High Commission for Clan Affairs considered the actions a historic stance of honor and national responsibility.

Akef al-Masri, of the Clan Affairs Commission stated that this was just the "first step in a series of upcoming steps." He promised the Palestinian people more "surprises in the coming days," asserting that joint national efforts will lead to more aid entering the besieged Strip. He reiterated that the Palestinian clans will continue to work tirelessly to break the siege and secure the needs of the population.

He stressed that the clans "will not stand idly by in the face of our people's suffering, and will continue to work with all their energy to secure people's needs and break the siege imposed on them in every possible way."

The only thing I can say is that these are the most heroic people in the world.

im still hearing bombs here (although much less than yesterday). nice ceasefire trump.

Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov: 'I completely understand if Iran wants to suspend all cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Grossi is now insisting that Iran grant the agency immediate access to its nuclear facilities to verify the whereabouts of enriched materials and assess the situation on the ground. But where are the assurances that this information won’t be leaked? I see no such safeguards. There is no confidentiality at all.'

Russian threat sees Eastern Europe bring back land mines

Mike Lee dropped the massive federal land sell off from the bill because he “was unable to secure clear, enforceable safeguards to guarantee that these lands would be sold only to American families—not to China, not to BlackRock, and not to any foreign interests”.

At least that major ecological disaster has been avoided.

For now.

Dayen;

Senate Dems are going to force a full reading of the Big Beautiful Bill, all 940 pages, on the Senate floor, delaying things by about 15 hours. Apparently advocates had to push @SenSchumer to get this done.

Huge move by the Dems, delaying things by one day! This probably helps the GOP because a lot of GOP Senators are still against it, looks like mostly because of the SALT tax change? The new bill cuts almost $1 trillion from Medicaid, by the way.

For anybody wondering if Zohran is hiding his power levels

Yes. I have so much to say about him and this campaign and I’m thinking I’ll do that write up this weekend or early next week

News is floating around that the snake Rafael Grossi said Iran is hiding nuclear material in Isfahan.

The truth is somewhat more bizarre and actually concerning. In an interview with "Fox News" a few days ago, the anchor says that he claimed Iran was hiding 900lbs of enriched uranium at "ancient site near Isfahan." Grossi does not deny saying it (I can't find evidence he ever did say it.) He replies that the IAEA doesnt know and can't be sure unless Iran allows IAEA observers into Iran.

Screenshot from the linked article.

It is noteworthy that this specific nazi news outlet used to employ the current US Secretary of Genocide Pete Hegseth who used to talk about "bombing Iranian cultural sites" on his show.

Anyways. Grossi gets plausible deniability while the US gets to threaten Iran that they will bomb the 800 year old Mosque outside Isfahan if the Islamic Republic doesnt allow IAEA spies into the country.

The idea of hiding uranium in a mosque is so laughably absurd but I guess 25 years of war on terror programming has prepared people to accept it.

Thankfully the Iranian government did officially ban cooperation with ~~Mossad~~ IAEA earlier this week.

We all have to be mentally and physically ready for the upcoming era of fascism. Like for real, get fucking ready.

It doesn't really matter if Iran "wins" or not, it's coming to you regardless.

So Israel will be resupplied with intercept missiles, return all focus to the genocide, and all of this will have been for nothing. Wonderful.

Major Palestinian Bedouin village faces expulsion by Israeli army and settlers Hexbear Post

Good morning to the sleepy comrades, good afternoon to the woke comrades, and good night to the terminally doomscrolling comrades.

Remember this week that while Iranians harden their hearts, we can help soften their enemies. Get outside and touch grass when you need to, and be prepared for a potential week of decades to come.

As for updates:

https://aje.io/j5j5ww?update=3794651

20 minutes ago: Israel confirms bombing of access roads to Fordow, likely to delay attempts to assess the damage or attempt repairs.

1 hour ago: Dashcam footage (check above link) shows moment that Ashdod is hit by Iranian forces during morning attack wave.

1 hour ago: Israel bombed a prison near Tehran (Evin), IRGC and Basij (militia) bases. Iran denies reports of unrest at the prison as "baseless". Israel continues to pivot towards fomenting unrest against the Iranian government. They also struck the "Israel doomsday clock".

In 2017, a digital clock was installed in Palestine Square, Tehran for Quds Day, reportedly counting down to the destruction of Israel. It was programmed to count down 25 years from a 2015 statement made by Khamenei, in which he predicted that Israel would cease to exist within a quarter century.

It's literally just a digital billboard with a countdown that supposedly goes out or gets hacked by Israel sometimes. Just one of those moments you're reminded of the paper-thin skin of Israeli militarism.

Bad vibes from this billboard allegedly in Tel Aviv

Coincidentally, guess who’s back in the news

https://thecradle.co/articles/israel-confirms-direct-normalization-talks-with-syria

This was undeniably a "kayfabe" response by Iran. A strike against an empty American base, in a country that has the best relations with Iran in the Gulf region. Let's see if the Americans can accept that everyone can come out looking strong or if they do something dumb af again.

Zohran Mamdani brought the heat on Tuesday, and torched Andrew Cuomo's bid to come back from disgrace. He's likely to become the next mayor of New York City thanks to fervent support from progressive hotbeds in Brooklyn and Queens blazing through the city's geographic center.

MAGA already calling on Trump to deport the People's Mayor...

This whole thing goes to show how North Korea is the only non great power sovereign state and only communist states can be trusted to manuever these situations against imperialism.

The DPRK didnt want to be a chinese satelite state or allow significant Chinese influence, had no delusions regarding the west and wanted to chart its own geopolitical course secure from imperialism. So they built the fucking bomb. Even when China in peak post deng pre xi, WTO and West good mode was pissing and crying for them not to , even when they along with Putin's dumbass joined in the sanctions. Even under the most vicious pressure from the country that had already genocided them. With literally no allies in the entire world. They put their heads down, suffered and persevered but they did it. They didnt have 5% of their population being SK agents with ATGMs hidden in their asses to sabotage them or a political sphere and elite dreaming about sending their kids to harvard and having swiss bank accounts. You guessed it, probably because they were communists.

They would have even done it even if the US carpet bombed them again and hundreds of thosuands were dying and did so without any guarantee that china would actualy help them in that situation despite having a paper somewhere saying they would. They would have turned Seoul into a parking lot with artillery until the last 30.000 people in Pyongyang bunkers and tunnels had a nuke button

And now they are reaping the benefits. Yes most of the world still shuning them and yes they under more pressure and attack than any country other than cuba can imagine. But the geopolitical events and changes created a situation where they can exercise their sovereigty and militarism to upgrade their technologies and energy access from co-benificial ties with russia and China also gives less of a shit to follow a bunch of sanctions they have been following ,and also doesnt want to be left behind in the russia-dprk bromance. And the future looks like more of that.

If they had a fraction of the brainworms iran had they would either be a smoking crater or a chinese dengifying vassal with its teeth taken out which doesnt sound that bad if you dont care about sovereignty between different socialist experiments and nations but whatever

Today, hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets of Tehran to pay their respects to the martyrs of the war imposed by the US-israel against Iran.

These are a people who will never be defeated.

Trump really hates dogs

BREAKING: Trump called for CNN to “throw out” Natasha Bertrand “like a dog” and demanded her firing for reporting on intelligence that Iran’s nuclear sites weren’t completely wiped out.

He accused her of pushing “fake news” and trying to damage the reputation of U.S. pilots.

On totally unsurprising news, DesTINY is in "Israel" giving pep talks and asking that if IOF soldiers want to take pictures of themselves in women's clothing, they shouldn't upload it to the internet.

NYT

Most communications between world leaders are considered private — unless President Trump sees some advantage to making it public. Which is what apparently just happened: Mr. Trump posted, on Truth Social, what he portrayed as a signal message from Mark Rutte, the secretary general of NATO, praising him for striking the Iranian nuclear sites.

“Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran,’’ the message read. Rutte called it “truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do.” NATO confirmed that the message was genuine.

All the stupid libs at r/europe are shocked by the NATO Secretary General kissing Trump's feet.

Esmail Qaani head of IRGC's elite Quds force, he's definitely alive and was indeed reported dead by Israel so who knows which others aren't.

Here is a report of his death: https://archive.is/V9BOy

Idk why Colbert mentioned the Clyburn endorsement for Cuomo as if it would have helped him the same way it helped Hillary and Biden. It only worked then because of his influence in South Carolina, which isn’t going to matter at all in an election taking place in NYC.

It looks like someone in Idaho started a wildfire to ambush and shoot at firefighters as a sniper.

Thread on that here

Why would anyone want to snipe firefighters responsible for putting out wildfires? Very disturbing.

Two unexploded Israeli missiles that was fired at Evin prison were defused and recovered. - Mehr New Agency

Yesterday also a Israeli Hermes drone was shot down with its components damaged but fairly recognizable and some undamaged. It's payload was also recovered, Spike missiles, if I recall correctly. It used Iridium LEO for communication. Anyway, Iranian engineers are going to have field day reverse-engineering those components.

As folks here said correctly, there were no manned aircraft shoot down at all, or any pilot captured because not a single image or video came out.

Regarding ceasefire, I believe it's not going to last long because it would be really bad for Israel. Iran now knows a lot about its weaknesses and almost all people are against Israel and US now. If the Iran's rulers act smartly they can cement this national unity and garner massive nation-wide support. However, presently Iran still can't do what Yemenis can do like intervening to help the Resistance members due to lack of support among general public for the leadership itself.

This is what defenders of Israel are defending

You know what boils my blood, kamala can still show her face and people let her. People started shitting on Hillary as soon as she lost. It makes sense, she is the most responsible for 2016 defeat and she should fuck off. Punch up. But it feels like things have regressed. Kamala got even worse defeat and all the people who should have been sending death threats to her are praising her. People are blaming everyone except those in power. Libs love to cry about democracy and normalcy but this is not normal democracy. This is power worshipping. This is not about her reactionary beliefs. I would be okay if she was hated after losing with real leftist policies too.

The bars are almost empty (on a Friday night of all nights), and the pizza places full, near the Pentagon and White House at the moment, for those who care about tracking that. I know some people on here do use it as an indicator.
