On Feb. 5, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM Commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations. Two narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed. @SecWar @DeptofWar #OpSouthernSpear

The administration's lawless killing spree at sea continues with another maritime strike in the eastern Pacific.

Real killing in a make believe armed conflict against unidentified enemies.

Initially this episode was supposed to focus on the complaint we filed in Argentina in mid Dec & UN reform & impact on documentation bodies.

But then last month the Islamic Republic killed thousands of protesters in just two days…

Without meaningful accountability cycles of violence will continue.

AIPAC spent millions against Malinowski and now... an even more pro-Palestine candidate might win. #NJ11

Highly recommended.

Actually existing democratic socialism:

“Google’s Gemini AI technology was being used by Israel’s defense apparatus at a time that the company was publicly distancing itself from the country’s military after employee protests over a contract with Israel’s government”

Israeli strikes kill over 30 in Gaza, health ministry says, in deadliest day in months | CNN Israeli strikes across Gaza killed at least 31 people on Saturday, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the highest day’s death toll in over two months.

Where the hell is the "Board of Peace?”

Over 500 Palestinians have been killed since the “ceasefire.” This comes days after the IDF itself admitted the Palestinian death toll is over 70,000. 

The use of American taxpayer-funded weapons makes us complicit. 

Stop the slaughter.

Worth noting these lawyers did something brave and honorable and are mostly likely going to have find new jobs (in a crap job market) because they refused to go along with Harmeet Dhillon's corrupt orders.

Exclusive: Early warning of 'Apocalyptic Wasteland' in Gaza blocked by US envoys to Israel The U.S. ambassador to Jerusalem, Jack Lew, blocked the cable from wider distribution within the United States government because they believed it lacked balance.

"USAID staffers in early 2024 drafted a warning to senior officials in . Biden’s administration: Northern Gaza had turned into an “Apocalyptic Wasteland” with dire shortages of food and medical aid."

"The IDF has accepted the estimate of the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry that approximately 70,000 Palestinians were killed during the Israel-Gaza war, noting that the number does not include missing residents who are potentially buried under rubble."

The ICC Pre-Trial Chamber has referred Italy’s failure to arrest and surrender Almasri Njeem to the Assembly of States Parties.

Frankly, I don't think Italy left the Court much of a choice.
