The Guardianโ€™s direct collusion with media censorship by secret services exposed The facts provide damning proof of the <em>Guardian</em>โ€™s total integration into the propaganda wing of the Ministry of Defence following its involvement in the WikiLeaks and Snowden files releases.

This is one of many reasons why most on the left don't trust the Guardian - it's up there with the BBC for being in the pocket of the state.

Today's news headlines serve as a stark reminder that "terrorism" and "terrorist" are completely meaningless labels that mean whatever the powerful want them to mean.

A U.S. nonprofit has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for an Israeli sniper unit for the stated purpose of buying scopes, silencers, and other equipment. The unit, which is nicknamed Rephaim, or โ€œGhosts,โ€ has since been implicated in possible war crimes and killing over 100 people in Gaza and has been tied to the killing of four unarmed Palestinians in Gaza since October 7, 2023.

On October 9, 2023, the mother of unit member Daniel Raabโ€”an Illinois nativeโ€”posted on Facebook that the nonprofit, registered as โ€œFriends of Paratrooper Sniper Unit 202,โ€ was in need of โ€œhelmets, rain gear, barrels, vests, sniper stands, silencers, camouflage, and the list goes on.โ€

In its 990 filings, Friends of Paratrooper Sniper Unit 202 is described as โ€œan organization dedicated to catering to the additional requirements and the overall welfare of soldiers serving in a specific military unit.โ€ The description continues to say that the primary focus of the nonprofit is, โ€œto ensure that soldiers have access to the necessary resources, support systems, and amenities that can enhance their comfort, safety, and well-being while they are actively serving their duty.โ€

The charity has raised significant amounts of money for the sniper unit since its establishment last year. According to its tax filings, Friends of Paratrooper Sniper Unit 202 raised over $304,000 in the year ending December 2023, of which it spent roughly $208,000 in grantsโ€”money which its promoters emphasize goes directly to soldiers in the unit.

Today Syrians are able to talk about things freely, in a way they haven't been able to until now, for fear of retribution on their families. I hope you'll find space to listen to them over the coming days. Assad is gone, and this enables freedom also from within the diaspora.

I would be very excited to see Assad defeated, but not at all costs. Clearly it's important to find out more about hts. Is it extremist?

Over two million people in the Gaza Strip are facing catastrophic levels of famine due to Israel's continued blockade on humanitarian aid and severe shortages of food and flour.

The lack of flour has caused prices to skyrocket, making it unaffordable for many families, 1/2๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป
