Thread was censored; what did it say?
it was an israeli soldier with severe ptsd screaming at some sort of hearing about how israel does nothing to help him combat the ptsd he got from it, mentoined how his friend was just killed in gaza and they could only identify the body due to dental records....about how he's a walking corpse and tries to killl himself while psychiatrists shove 15 pills down his throat so he can sleep

absolute insane shit

/there was a headline that said ' i kill babies for this?' but i never saw any mention of that during the actual interview portion

Sooner or later everybody becomes exasperated with Bibi's bullshit. Just a matter of how long it takes.


Gramps and Bibi having a tiff?

Netanyahu knows it's likely his days are numbered if there is peace.

Trumps pipe dream for the Nobel. Trump does not care about some peace deal.

He has green lighted the total destruction of Gaza. Sending US troops into American cities, orchestrated the disappearance of thousands of migrants, sowing division, carrying out extrajudicial killings in international waters with impunity, and is silencing dissent and squashing free-speech.

Also .... While 750,000 Americans go without a paycheck, the POTUS is golfing.

“The embassy has been able to meet with Greta,” reads the email. “She informed of dehydration. She has received insufficient amounts of both water and food. She also stated that she had developed rashes which she suspects were caused by bedbugs. She spoke of harsh treatment and said she had been sitting for long periods on hard surfaces.”

“Another detainee reportedly told another embassy that they had seen her [Thunberg] being forced to hold flags while pictures were taken. She wondered whether images of her had been distributed,” the Swedish ministry’s official added.

The allegation was corroborated by at least two other members of the flotilla who had been detained by Israeli forces and released on Saturday.

“They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.
How very honorable of them to treat like that someone with actual compassion.

TikTok is now officially "Israelified".. And joins the similarly muzzled MSM that has duped countless minds since the birth of the Zio state. And even duped many to think its sell-off was due to China's control of it. The China angle was simply to shield the many in congress who passed the legislation from being perceived as slaves to Israel, nothing more.

They are up against Netflix who is likely to make a competitive offer.
Ellison can easily outbid them. For Netflix its a business decision, for Ellison it includes an ideological component and a much larger war chest.

Matt Gaetz relates his experiences with AIPAC. He was told by his colleagues and staff that he had to go meet them. He would chat with donors and if they liked him they would scan his name tag that had a QR code for a donation. He says he felt like a product that could easily be bought off a shelf in a store.

Wouldn't it be great if he was capable of the logical leap, being "if you don't like what you are, then maybe you should try to change". Instead, self-loathing and complaining about a "lack of nuance" while being a GQP talking head.

Oh well Matt, it could be worse:

according to bari, googling peoples names is better reporting than actually talking to them and their relatives directly

-
The Free Press claimed dereliction on the part of the mainstream media. “We did something so simple it’s shocking that no other journalist bothered to do it,” announced FP reporter Olivia Reingold, describing how she and her colleague Tanya Lukyanova used Google to search for news articles and interviews about the children featured in photographs. “n every instance, they were already facing grave situations because of their health, irrespective of any third-party action,” the outlet reported.

“In leaving out that context, the outlets presented an incomplete story,” The Free Press wrote in an editorial defending their coverage. “We are proud of the report and the reporters who tracked it down. In doing so, Olivia Reingold and Tanya Lukyanova performed a public service.”

yeah, piss poor journalistic standards. But standards are not what they are after. John Oliver ripped into her on his show.

Something to think about here—why don’t we have any clips of prominent Democrats discussing the inner machinations of AIPAC so candidly??? For as much shit that we give the MAGA right and blowhards like Matt Gaetz, we rarely ever get to hear candid soundbites like this from Dems…and that is a major problem. I’m beginning to understand why the right wing media echo chamber works so well outside of traditional, established media. For Dems, access to elected officials is still very much controlled by the elites (both inside traditional media and inside staff/comms teams) and you rarely get to see unscripted, unfiltered candid feedback.

I could be way off base here, and perhaps folks like AOC and the rest of the Squad are just as engaged with non-traditional media and willing to share their unfiltered opinions on things. But they remain on the fringes of the establishment, and their message isn’t just struggling to be heard—I think it's being actively silenced by people on the right and the left who don’t want us to hear it.

most are a ok with them....AOC and a few others have spoken out against the aipac


a few of those that did speak out wherfe heavily primaried and had opponents financed by aipac (see Jamaal Bowman and Cory Bush's opponents getting 25 million)

when they do talk about it, it doesn't raise that much of a stink because it's expected though, when a right wing conservative does it, it seems more of a shock to me that someone's speaking against the 'established world view' (left is always fractured and right is more in step?)
