Report: "Judge rules Trump cannot use foreign policy claim to deport Mahmoud Khalil"
"While the ruling does not order Khalil’s immediate release, it does undermine the US government’s case against Khalil."
"The judge wrote that the administration was violating Khalil’s right to free speech by detaining & trying to deport him under a provision of the Immigration & Nationality Act of 1952."

Interview: "Chaos & Cruelty": Putting Down Protests in LA
Trump has inflamed tensions in LA, "which his top adviser Stephen Miller described as 'an insurrection'."
"They want protesters to react violently to distract from [the fact] that families are being separated, communities devastated."

Report: Tunisian convoy travelling to Gaza has crossed the Libyan border en route to Rafah
Over a thousand activists from North African countries are participating in the convoy as a "symbolic act" to spotlight Israel's crippling siege on Gaza.
The convoy plans to cross to Egypt by Thursday.
Egyptian authorities have not yet provided passage to enter the country, but there is "reassuring" information.

Report: Spain summons Israeli diplomat to protest Israel’s interception of the Madleen ship.
"Madrid has been critical of Israel’s war on Gaza, & in April, halted a controversial $7.5m deal to buy ammunition from Israel."
https://aje.io/p6b8m7?update=3763352
Turkiye’s Foreign Ministry has also spoken out against Israel’s interception of the Madleen.
Sweden: "mumble mumble... help if she needs it... mumble mumble".

Analysis: The absolute silence from the Madleen crew members’ governments is beyond words, "reflects Israeli impunity."
"If any other state had sent its military forces to seize a small civilian boat carrying 12 unarmed civilians ... it would immediately be recognised for the act of state piracy that it indisputably is."
"But for Israel, there’s always an exception.”

Interview: "Greta Thunberg Speaks from Aid Ship Heading to Gaza"
12 activists are sailing on the Madleen ship to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The Freedom Flotilla's first ship was damaged by an Israeli drone attack.
Greta Thunberg speaks from the Madleen: “We deem the risk of silence & the risk of inaction to be so much more deadly than this mission."

Speech: A reckoning is coming for western media complicit in genocide
"Gaza is a crime scene. Dust it off, and you will find the fingerprints of British editors and British journalists amongst the apocalyptic rubble.
"British media outlets... have not been passive bystanders in one of the great crimes of our age, but active participants."

"In the last days of all empires the idiots take over."

Look, I get your point, but please don't fuel the fascist propaganda that we're all equally culpable. Victims don't create the social orders that kill them.

Yes, exactly. And Thatcher & Reagan were spawned from the plutocracy's 1970s counterrevolution to the democratic social movements of the 1960s.
Rockefeller et al. said the uprisings were due to an "excess of democracy" that had to be dismantled.
And that's precisely what they've been doing since.
They're out in the open now bcz they believe they've won.
In case of interest, the beginning in 1971

The US has again vetoed a UN Security Council ceasefire resolution for Gaza - the 5th time since 2023
All other members voted for it.
"Had it been adopted, the draft would have demanded “an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza” to be respected by all parties."
Note that the UN General Assembly can invoke the "Unifying for Peace" mechanism, but won't:

😁 is that why you don't criticise your boss in public? 😁
Writer, psychologist & educator here to learn & share info on politics, psych, education, history &, especially, structural power. Antifascist, anti-oligarchy, atheist. I boost what I find interesting, regardless of whether I agree with it. Resisting fascism includes countering disinformation with facts. I prefer evidence, not evidence-free opinion.
