"Jolani/Mamdani is just so smart bro you just dont understand bro."

 

Beyond parody.

Israel would not have been able to decimate Gaza to this extent without the TNT production capacity of Nitro-Chem, which after the Cold War emerged as the largest producer of the explosive among NATO and EU members. During the October War of 1973, the Israeli Air Force (IAF) adopted the U.S.-made Mk 80 series, which features an admixture of aluminum powder to increase the heat and destructiveness of the charge. Israel’s air campaign in Gaza mostly featured the largest bombs in the series—the 1,000-pound Mk 83 and the 2,000-pound Mk 84. By April of 2024, Israeli pilots had detonated around 75,000 tons of Polish-made TNT on the densely populated enclave. In nuclear terms, this is an explosive force equivalent to a 75-kiloton fission bomb—significantly more than twice the combined yield of the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Along with Vietnam, the Mk 80 supply chain echoes another dark chapter of history—one closer to the mixing site of its main ingredient. The Nitro-Chem plant is located on the former grounds of one of the biggest arms factories built by the Nazis between 1940 and 1944. The authors of the TNT report note that, during the German occupation, Polish resistance cells repeatedly “infiltrated the plant and carried out acts of sabotage.” No such acts have been reported in recent years, as the TNT used in the Gaza genocide uses roads and train tracks in the vicinity of multiple Holocaust memorials, including the site of a mass grave known as the Valley of Death, and the Potulice Concentration Camp, where an estimated 25,000 prisoners were processed.

 

One Million People Weekly Use ChatGPT To Discuss Suicide

A startling new report from OpenAI has quantified the profound role its AI is playing in users’ personal lives, revealing that over one million people each week turn to ChatGPT with conversations that include explicit indicators of suicidal intent. This figure, representing 0.15 percent of its weekly active users, exposes a massive, unplanned social experiment unfolding in real-time. For the first time in history, immense numbers of people are regularly confiding their most acute psychological struggles not to a human, but to a machine intelligence system. The increased parameters around AI for crisis support creates a need for regulation and monumental responsibility that the company is still learning to navigate.

 

On this day in 1979, revolutionary students in the Islamic Republic of Iran stormed the US embassy in Tehran and captured the spies operating there.

The students would go on to piece together tens of thousands of pages of documents the spies tried to shred and they turned the building, now known as the "Den of Espionage" into a museum documenting US spy craft against Iran.

Caracas (OrinocoTribune.com)—On Monday, Secretary General of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) Diosdado Cabello said that Venezuela will welcome support from people around the world to help defend the country from an imminent US military aggression.

Cabello’s statement came during the party’s weekly press conference in response to a question from Resumen Latinoamericano journalist Geraldina Colotti. She inquired about President Nicolás Maduro’s comments on Sunday regarding the creation of an internationalist militia brigade of indigenous peoples from the continent and asked if the PSUV would organize general international brigades similar to those formed to fight Franco’s fascist dictatorship during Spain’s Civil War.

“If we have not publicly called for the peoples of the world to organize to defend our country, I take this opportunity to do so from this moment, that from anywhere in the world, here is Venezuela, which is being attacked, and any help you can give us is welcome,” Cabello answered. “Here you will be received as brothers of life. Brothers of life. Love is repaid with love. That is what they say around here.”

There is an interesting relevant history. Regarding the UN resolution 678 which justified the imperialist destruction and genocide of Iraq in the 90's, the US pressured all members on the security council to support it. Even non-permanent members.

With America's place in the world, not to mention Mr. Bush's political future, riding on the outcome of the gulf crisis, the Administration never hesitated to let other nations know that their support for this resolution was vital to Washington, which would remember its friends, and its foes. Minutes after the Yemeni elegate joined the Cubans in voting against the resolution at the Security Council on Thursday, a senior American diplomat was instructed to tell him: "That was the most expensive no vote you ever cast" -- meaning it would result in an end to America's more than $70 million in foreign aid to Yemen.

Thankfully the US has much less leverage against Russia and China today compared to 35 years ago but I think its readily apparent that the UN "peacekeepers" are generally just used as cudgels on behalf of US-led NATO domination. Examples from Haiti to Lebanon to Mali

I would much prefer a UN that is utterly powerless than one that is used to justify genocidal sanctions on Iraq or Iran for instance.

Thanks for the sources, I’ve learned a lot more new material from this than I care to admit

Always glad to share when I have time. We are all always learning new things together 🫡

Namely the first two. The premise of R2P or "responsibility to protect" has been heavily promoted and one of the major arguments for it was "the UN did nothing to stop genocide in Rawanda". Of course when R2P was applied it was to justify completely destroying Libya in service of US empire.

In truth, in Rawanda, the most heinous crimes were carried out by the RPF led by US puppet Paul Kagame on behalf of US interests.

The same issue in Sudan today is the US-israel-UAE arming RSF militants to throw the country into a perpetual civilian war. This is in line with the decades long zionist-American plot to fracture Sudan.

In Myanmar, again, the imperialists are heavily invested in propagating lies to justify various types of intervention in the name of human rights but really to expand their empire.

People dont just wake up one day and decide to exterminate their neighbors. Such genocidal campaigns are precipitated by imperialist schemes. And in cases when multi-lateral "human rights" interventions occur it has always turned out worse rather than better.

The world doesnt need more UN intervention it needs death to America.

Liberals: Orange man bad! Hes got to go!

Ali Khamenei: Death to America means death to Trump and Bolton. We have nothing against the American people.

Liberals: WHY ARE THE MUSLIMS SO HATEFUL??

I disagree with some of the panels but support the overall message.

UN is a tool of imperialism to subjugate planet

 
 

Amid the ongoing Zionist genocide against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank, as the siege, starvation, and daily massacres intensify, the dimensions of international and regional complicity are being exposed with increasing brazenness and openness. At the heart of this complicity, both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the French Republic are playing a suspicious role, attempting to reimpose what is called the “two-state solution” as a political exit, precisely at a time when people are being annihilated, the land is being burned, and homes are being demolished on top of their inhabitants.

What Paris and Riyadh are promoting is nothing short of an open political genocide, recycling of a failed and dangerous project, one that seeks to liquidate the Palestinian cause under the guise of so-called “international legitimacy.” And yet, what is being proposed occurs entirely outside the framework of all UN resolutions related to the Palestinian question, flawed as those resolutions may be. It is a continuation of what was started by Camp David, Oslo, Wadi Araba, and the Abraham Accords — the systematic violation of Palestinian rights and the fragmentation of the goals of the Palestinian national struggle.

How is it possible to speak of “two states” in the context of comprehensive occupation from the river to the sea, of accelerating colonial settlement in the West Bank, and of collective massacres being committed against children, women, and men in Gaza? How can a people who have resisted for over seven decades be offered a state on paper, without sovereignty, without an army, without the right of return? And why is a people fighting on behalf of the entire Arab nation being asked to surrender all of its rights?

France has always been a principal partner in the Western colonial and imperialist project in our region. Today, it continues this filthy role through its full support for the Zionist entity, its refusal to halt arms exports, and its brutal repression of any public expression of support for Palestine on its own soil. Paris falsely and brazenly presents itself as an “honest broker,” while it stands firmly in the same trench as Washington and Tel Aviv, hosting conferences that seek to entrench the system of occupation. Indeed, it has managed to dilute the positions of several European countries, including Ireland, Norway, Belgium, and Spain.

As for the repressive, obscurantist Saudi regime, after years of ideological, religious, and political preparation, it no longer even pretends to be ashamed of its strategic partnership with the Zionist entity. It openly presents full normalization as a “rational” path that the rest of the Arab states should follow. For the rulers of Riyadh, Palestine is nothing more than a bargaining chip to improve the terms of U.S. protection. They are not embarrassed by their open conspiracy against the resistance or by their pressure to disarm it and strip it of legitimacy, even if the price is the extermination of two million people in Gaza. This comes as no surprise: this is the same bloody regime that led a criminal war against the people of Yemen.

The essence of the so-called “two-state solution” is nothing but the legitimation of the Zionist entity, the enshrinement of defeat, and the consolidation of a racist colonial entity on 90% of the land of Palestine — not just the 78% commonly cited. In return, it proposes a weak, fragmented, and functional Palestinian entity confined to the few remaining besieged islands in the West Bank and Gaza, whose presence will not exceed more than 10% of the land, without any guarantees for the right of return, the dismantling of settlements, or the release of prisoners. This is not a project for a just solution; it is a liquidation project. It seeks to strip the Palestinian people of the essence of their cause: liberation and return.

The New York Declaration: Total Capitulation and a State on Paper

In this context, the danger of the so-called “New York Declaration on the Peaceful Settlement of the Palestinian Question,” issued recently, becomes apparent. It states: “We welcomed the commitments made by Mahmoud Abbas on behalf of Palestine, contained in his letter dated 9 June 2025, including the pursuit of a peaceful settlement to the Palestinian issue and the continued rejection of violence and terrorism.” The statement continues: “We also welcomed his affirmation that the Palestinian state should be the sole authority responsible for providing security in its territory, but it does not intend to be an armed state.”

This formulation does not merely mark an attempted official declaration of the end of the Palestinian national project and total surrender to the conditions of occupation and Zionism. It also represents the death of the so-called “Palestinian state,” even by the standards of the “Authority” itself, which has tried to market this idea among our people. A “state” without land, without arms, without resistance, without decision-making power, without sovereignty, one that accepts Western and Saudi guardianship, is nothing more than a security appendage of the Zionist system. It has nothing to do with the aspirations of our people for liberation and sovereignty. It is even more grotesque than the infamous limited “self-rule” project.

The bitter irony in this repulsive scene is that the Zionist enemy itself does not even accept this content-less program, as it refuses even “Mahmoud Abbas’s vision” and the Oslo liquidation agreements, despite the fact that these were originally crafted to protect it, consolidate its occupation, and constrain our people’s resistance. So perhaps we can take some comfort in the fact that the Zionist war criminals and their backers are working to sabotage this project! In the presence of impotent and complicit Palestinian leaderships and Arab regimes, Zionist colonialism leans on them to carry out the liquidation of the Palestinian cause.

This dangerous phase demands absolute and uncompromising Palestinian, Arab and international popular rejection of this treacherous liquidation project. It requires us to seize back the initiative from the hands of these puppet regimes, and to escalate the popular, political, financial, and military support for the Palestinian resistance by all means necessary. The experience of the past decades has proven that the Zionist enemy understands only the language of force, and that rights are not restored through negotiations and false mediations, but through armed struggle and comprehensive resistance.

All of occupied Palestine, from the river to the sea, is the sacred right of the Palestinian people, and it is non-negotiable. The right of return for refugees is inalienable, not subject to delay or bargaining. Anyone who promotes the fragmentation or diminishment of these rights is part of the liquidation project, whether they cloak themselves in religion or raise the banner of secularism and democracy. No perfume from Paris or Riyadh will mask the stench of their treacherous project.
