BREAKING: The Lancet has just published this article "conservatively" estimating that the death toll in the Gaza genocide could be 186,000 people or more. That's 8% of the population, obliterated. These are apocalyptic figures. thelancet.com/journals/lance… thelancet.com/journals/lance…

The arrest of journalist Richard Medhurst and the fight to defend democratic rights - “war on journalism reached horrifying conclusion with murder of at least 116 media workers and journalists by Israel during its extermination of Palestinians in Gaza. wsws.org/en/articles/20…

“disrupt shipment of weapons to ‘Zionist entity’ as a direct method of stopping genocide in Gaza and to attack entire economy of genocidal entity to limit their ability to inflict further pain and suffering on the besieged Palestinian population” - bravo! truthout.org/articles/activ…

🚨BREAKING: 179 health workers gathered outside St Thomas’ Hospital to demand the release of the 179 Palestinian health workers held in secret detention by Israeli forces. These brave health workers were taken by Israeli forces while risking their lives to provide medical care.

Why are our leaders collaborating with this overkill? Almost everyone in Gaza has already lost their home once in 1948 when they were driven out of their lands at the creation of Israel. The only long term alternative to genocide or further cleansing is Two States, side by side.

The widespread devastation and massacres of the Israeli army in #Jenin and other parts of occupied northern West Bank, where Hamas is not ruling, are a powerful reminder that Hamas is just the last excuse for the State of #Israel to wreak the Palestinian territory havoc.

🇲🇾 Malaysia Prime Minister in Russia: "This did not begin in October 7. It began with colonization & the Nakba in 1948... It doesn't stop because of Israel's intransigence with the total support of the US... It's time that Palestinians are treated as human beings, not as slaves"

The US will "help" Ukraine to weaken a US strategic rival & give the US control over 12 trillion dollars of minerals in Ukraine - This is why "helping" Ukraine included a coup, purging their politics/media/culture, subverting elections, provoking war & sabotaging peace agreements

The key US objective was always to use Ukraine as a battering ram against Russia, although as Lindsey Graham - Ukraine is also sitting on a "gold mine" (10-12 trillions of minerals), making it the "best business partner" the US could ever dream of.

Billionaires stand behind Trump@and Harris - over 25 of them@behind each candidate! By the time the election is over, both campaigns will have in all likelihood raised and spent in excess of $1 billion - big capital has bought the election whoever wins wsws.org/en/articles/20…

Billionaires win debate as Reagan-Bush Democrat spars with fascistic Republican in race for White House to decide which candidate best serves interests of richest most powerful; political theatrics for everyone else as dozens of billionaires line up behind each candidate

A 'tactical triumph', an 'operation', a 'spectacular coup', says the BBC's Jeremy Bowen. But if the Israeli-Hezbollah roles had been reversed, he would surely have used the word 'terrorism'.
