The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

No Help and Few Options for Travelers Stranded by Mideast Conflict

One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

“He acknowledged to the dispatcher that he was planning to get out of his vehicle. The dispatcher interjected.

‘Why? You can drive away. We have officers en route to you,’ the dispatcher said. ‘I don’t want you guys getting into any more of a dispute.’”

Examining the bodies returned to their people after the most recent so-called ceasefire, Palestinian doctors noted that, in some bodies “the rib cage and ribs were clipped with a sharp saw—a medical saw, a bone saw—and the sternum, along with the central part of the ribs, [were] lifted to allow for the removal of the heart and lungs without damage to the organ being taken.” Organ procurement, with few exceptions like skin and cornea, requires that the body be either alive—via brain death—or just-dead—via circulatory death. It is plausible that some Palestinian prisoners’ torture led to brain death. It is also possible their torturers felt no need to wait. Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs. The transplant surgeon waits for a person to die; the soldier can’t. The settler surgeon wields his mastery over the body to serve the state. Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier.

"Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs... Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier."

I'm honestly speechless.

lol donald trump invaded venezuela and captured maduro all so that they’d stop sending oil to cuba and start sending it to israel jesus christ man its just too ridiculous

Although much of the literature focuses on the philosophical, ethical, and political foundations of events that are conventionally described as “genocide,” little scholarly attention has been paid to genocide in the disparate fields that make up sports studies. Even less attention has been paid t…

No Israeli appearance in global sport can be understood outside the context of the athleticide it has committed in Gaza—and not been held accountable for.

There is simply no moral argument for allowing war criminals to compete at the Olympics.

DAILY MEMO: 'They're Going To Kill Him,' Toddler Says, As Border Patrol Arrests Her Father

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital Intensive care nurses immediately doubted the word of federal immigration officers when they arrived at a Minneapolis hospital with a Mexican immigrant who had broken bones in his face and skull.

“There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall.”

Adding to the non-US recommendations: The Tale of King Crab, from four or five years ago. The two directors have a new one, called Heads or Tails (with a John C. Reilly cameo evidently).

That settles it then; the sentence for kicking a vehicle is summary execution without trial.

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

NEW: A Texas county medical examiner found that Geraldo Lunas Campos was choked to death by a guard while he was held in ICE custody earlier this month.

Geraldo is the sixth person to die in ICE detention this year.

New book officially out 🚨

If you ever wanted to know what Italian philosophy has been up to in the last 10-20 years, look no further. “An introduction to Contemporary Italian Thought” is out today with chapters on cyberfascism, technology & work, pandemic biopolitics, and posthumanism.

people are dying in ICE custody because their concentration camps are like concentration camps always are

The upside of child sacrifice Those Moloch worshipers were pikers. Back in those days, I imagine the ancients brought a child or two to the altar to be knifed in early spring, in order...

Between Musk's porn generator, Zuckerberg's trauma machine, and the suicide-encouraging bots that Google invested in - Big Tech is finding that child sacrifice is very, very profitable.

I feel especially strongly about this one. New from me:

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

Protester blinded, skull fractured by DHS agent during Santa Ana demonstration, family says A young protester narrowly avoided being killed but was left permanently blind after a Department of Homeland Security agent fired a nonlethal round at close range during a Santa Ana protest last week, according to family of the victim.

ICE just broke a woman’s windows and yanked her out of her car at Park and 34 in Minneapolis. This is after a crowd gathered while ICE raided a home.

Handing Out Free Tickets, Mamdani Says Theater Should Not Be ‘a Luxury’

“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

Anyway ICE was filmed desecrating Renee Nicole Good’s memorial & doing violence to people who found that distasteful. Might be too soon to say if this falls into some kind of pattern of behavior if you’re the stupidest motherfucker on earth.

There are two sides to this issue. One one side, law-abiding US citizens who are getting murdered extrajudicially by the Federal Government. On the other side are the Federal Government agents who are murdering them. Who is right? Both are right. Everything is the same. Thanks for watching CBS news.

Adrian Weckler: Why aren’t we doing more to stop Grok’s virtual pornification? As you read this, thousands of images of women and girls – maybe people you know – are being virtually undressed by Grok, Elon Musk’s AI engine that operates publicly on the social media platform, X.

It’s clear that what Grok and X have done goes against a multitude of EU and Irish regulations and maybe even criminal law, as reported in recent days, writes Adrian Weckler. But do we, as a political and civic society, have the courage to follow through on enforcing that law?

Renee Nicole Good was not the first person to be murdered by ICE under Trump.

Keith Porter was a Black man killed by ICE on New Years Eve.

Silverio Gonzalez was an undocumented immigrant killed in Franklin Park.

Marimar Martinez was shot 5 times in Chicago & survived.

No one is safe.
