Iran retaliation against the US base in Qatar is still a big escalation by Iran even if the base was emptied and the attack communicated in advance. The motive behind the attack is political deterrence, not meant to cause material damage.

This American and Israeli war that was initiated to topple the Iranian regime is a failure if it ends before accomplishing its goals.

The only way for the US and Israel to end the war on Iran is when the cost of toppling the regime is too costly for them to handle. While they planned for a total regime change, Iran resilience and missiles were devastating for Israel to deal with.

With the report of ceasefire in Iran, American diplomacy & ceasefire discussions have been used as a deception mechanism to prolong the war in Gaza & allow Israel to eliminate its enemies in Lebanon & Iran. Here is my discussion on that with Propaganda & co: youtu.be/ennF67QpUbo

"Iran lost its capabilities and surrendered to end this war." Don't get your analysis from people who think the US and Israel are invincible.

It hurts seeing revolutionary activists act as a buffer class to preserve American democracy (read: oligarchy). Posturing to civic engagement and cheering candidates undermines critical literature and work in favor of containing dissent within the system we fight.

Let's hope this Zohran Mamdani moment doesn't turn into another 2008 Obama moment when the anti-war movement was dissolved because "war candidates lost." The system is designed to rotate between "right" and "left" candidates to keep people invested, fragmenting dissent momentum.

Electoral politics and fighting AIPAC isn't our battle to win, that's a distraction. The root cause of all issues is American racism, capitalism, and imperialism. You can't defeat an empire by using the tools it created to preserve itself against radical change.

Zionists attack Zohran Mamdani for simply being Muslim, not for his politics on Israel. Zionism requires racial hierarchy to justify ethnic-cleansing in Palestine.

The West is crying about chants against the IDF because admitting the criminality of IDF incriminates them, morally and politically, for their complicity in these crimes.

Celebrating independence while violently standing between other people and their independence is as American as it gets. 4th of July represents the creation of a new colonial metropolis away from Europe.

Hearing fireworks all night makes me feel sick to my stomach.. I can't begin to fathom how the people of Gaza have been dealing with nonstop bombings for 2 years..

All of Israeli massacres against Palestinian civilians don't wash away the humiliation of its military by the barefooted Gaza fighters.

It's unfortunate that our fears that the new Syrian regime would normalize relationships with Israel is closer than ever. The patterns were obvious, but people chose to ignore them and to defend Al-Sharaa blindly. The joy of toppling Assad was used to legitimize shady politics.

The reports about ceasefire discussions show Israel isn't serious about reaching an agreement. Trump's misplaced excitement is another round of American strategy of containment & deception. With Netanyahu in the US, there might be another plot being planned for the region.

It's obvious now Israel and the US were pushing positive spin on ceasefire discussions to force Hamas to accept the terms that allow Israel to occupy 40% of Gaza permanently. Israel bombs and the US uses diplomacy to help Israel achieve its goals.
