Lisa Cook Tells Trump She Won’t Quit, Abrego Garcia Detained Again, Inside North Korea’s ‘Waikiki’

If Trump successfully destroys the Fed’s independence, he will have eliminated the country’s ability to manage the economy with limited influence by short-term election cycles.

Israel hits hospital and kills five journalists, then says they will investigate what happened.

Trump is preparing to send the national guard to more cities. The national guard is not designed to enforce crime. Trump focuses on cities run by Democrats even though several high crime cities are run by Republicans. If Trump mostly or only sends troops to “crack down on crime” in Democrat run cities, that indicates that this is political intimidation and U.S. democracy is dead.

Episode 37: The genocidal claim of genocide with Adam Louis-Klein

Posted on by Lone Candle

Treating the Israelis simply as settler colonialists that inherently need to genocide the people they stole their land from gives the Palestinians no agency. It ignores that Palestinians really could have had a Palestinian state but some Palestinians have repeatedly made that not possible by acts of terror.

The ‘Day After’ Plan for Gaza That Netanyahu Doesn’t Want to Talk About

Posted on by Lone Candle

“Netanyahu insists that these initiatives “reward” terror. On the contrary, they make his espoused goal more likely: a regional deal in which Hamas is isolated by the Arab world, and the Palestinian Authority, which long ago agreed to the two-state solution, takes the lead in legitimizing and helping to buttress a new Gazan administration.”

Doctors in Gaza struggle to fight rare paralytic illness under Israeli blockade

Posted on by Lone Candle

“Dangerous viruses that cause severe paralytic illness are thriving in Gaza, where starving children living under an Israeli blockade can’t access the food or treatments they need to recover.

For months, health officials have warned that the destruction of the Gaza Strip’s sanitation facilities by Israel could fuel the surge of infectious diseases, as seen in last year’s polio outbreak. Now, doctors are reporting a surge in cases of acute flaccid paralysis, a rare syndrome causing muscle weakness that can make it hard to breathe and swallow.

Cases in Gaza include acute flaccid myelitis, which mostly affects children, and the better-known Guillain-Barré syndrome, said Ahmed al-Farra, head of pediatrics at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza.”

Jonathan Conricus says Hamas would win “by a landslide” in new election — Sky News Australia

Countries recognizing a Palestinian state while Hamas is in power helps cement their power because Hamas can claim that their strategy worked. Their strategy of terrorist attacks and using their people as human shields worked to get the Palestinian state recognized by more countries.

I don’t know how to cover this anymore

Posted on by Lone Candle

The Israel-Hamas conflict is surrounded by so much misinformation, and people latch on to the misinformation and propaganda so unquestionably, that it makes it hard to tell what’s going on and many professionals don’t want to even touch the story. Everything is so he-said-she-said and stories always change after bad information has already spread, that it is difficult to know what the truth is.
