Israel has been spending hundreds of millions of dollars on pro-IDF propaganda targeting Europe and North America. And platforms like Google are helping them. Read my new investigation into Google's shockingly close ties with Israeli intelligence here: mintpressnews.com/israel-europe-…

This is what Israel does best. This is what the American-supplied bombs and AI are used for. Mass murder of children. Every single day for 22 months. This was earlier today in a strike on the Mushtaha family's shelter in Sheikh Radwan, Gaza City. Shame on those that support this!…
Defense Minister Murhaf Abu Qasra is directly overseeing the investigation into military abuses in Suwayda, vowing zero tolerance even for Defense Ministry members. All those seen in the shocking footage will be investigated, with findings to follow.
The Defense and Interior Ministries condemned circulating videos of field executions in Suwayda, and launched an urgent investigation to identify the perpetrators, and vowed the harshest penalties, stressing that no unauthorized groups are allowed in the military operations zone.

"Caretakers, including UNRWA colleagues in Gaza, are also in need of care now, doctors, nurses, journalists, humanitarians, among them, UNRWA staff are hungry. Many are now fainting due to hunger and exhaustion while performing their duties." theguardian.com/world/live/202…
The ongoing Gaza Hunger Games Shocking how many times the commander needs to impress on soldiers not to shoot at unarmed, starving civilians
דובר צה"ל בערבית פרסם תיעוד בו נראים עשרות פלסטינים לוקחים סיוע ממשאית ברצועה, לאחר שהלוחמים קיבלו פקודה "לא לבצע ירי". בהודעה נכתב: "אין רעב, אין הרג מכוון ואין פגיעה מכוונת. ישנה תעמולה של חמאס עם כלי תקשורת שמפיצים שקרים" @OmerShahar123

Qatar has confirmed it is in talks with the IOC about hosting the 2036 Olympics and Paralympics - the Games have never been staged in the Middle East before. Qatar Olympic Committee says 95% of the required sports infrastructure in place. India seen as potential challenger
BREAKING: “Israel would prefer to see Syria fragmented and divided rather than a strong central state in control of the country. Strong nation-states are a threat — especially Arab states are viewed as a threat to Israel," said U.S. envoy to Syria.
Rhetoric w/o policy change is meaningless. It won't stop the carnage in Gaza, absolve Washington of complicity, or contribute to regional stability. Trump is continuing the failed policies of his predecessors by ceding the initiative to Israel. This is not America First.
A call by Islamic scholars in Iraq to Al Azhar - the heart of Islamic jurisprudence - to issue a fatwa to do anything necessary to lift Israel's siege on Gaza and more precisely open the Rafah crossing

“Statecraft,” observed Middle East expert @andreas_krieg, “is about generating power or generating influence. Mediation is only good as a means of statecraft when you can extract influence from it.” #Qatar has generated a lot of that power in recent months theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…
130 people were killed and more than 1,000 wounded in Gaza this weekend. People are starving. Many were shot by the Israeli military while simply trying to get food. This is completely insane and unacceptable. No more U.S. military aid to Israel.

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
