Now they watch Israel erase the Palestinian people culturally and politically. Oslo was a classic Zionist scam. Palestinian leadership advanced their obligations for promises Israel never planned to keep and the world never intended to enforce.

CBS pulling @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s interview from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is alarming and nothing short of censorship. Full breakdown on my Substack page (link below).

Concerns over autocracy in the U.S. continue to grow Is America still a democracy? Scholars tell NPR that after the last year under President Trump, the country has slid closer to autocracy or may already be there.

"Under competitive authoritarianism, countries still hold elections, but the ruling party uses various tactics β€” attacking the press, disenfranchising voters, weaponizing the justice system and threatening critics β€” to tilt the electoral playing field in its favor."

Israel is a terrorist state. When it is not actively murdering Palestinians, it is harassing them in many different ways. It is attempting ethnic cleansing and genocide!
