Why Iran believes Israel will attack again before October Will Israel restart the war with Iran before the October elections? This is the consensus view emerging within Iran’s internal national security debate over the past week. Several factors are driving Tehran to this conclusion. Beyond its deep—and not entirely unwarranted—suspicion of President Donald Trump’s intentions, heightened by Vice President JD Vance’s recent remark that Trump wants to use the MOU to replenish global oil reserves and then “see where the hand is,” two developments stand out: the recent Israeli-Lebanese agreement and its impact on Hezbollah’s military posture over the coming months. From Tehran’s perspective, the agreement hands Israel a significant advantage in any renewed war with Iran—one it lacked in February. By allowing Israeli forces to remain in parts of southern Lebanon, the deal appears to contravene the MOU while fundamentally reshaping the military balance. Israel’s continued presence in these strategic positions would make it far more difficult for Hezbollah to mount the kind of offensive operations that proved critical during the previous round of fighting. That matters because, in February and March, the Iranians say they used only about 40 percent of their offensive capabilities against Israel, because Hezbollah carried much of the remaining burden. At the time, pundits in the West were debating why Tehran hit the UAE harder than it did Israel. Read full analysis on Substack: tritaparsi.substack.com/p/why-iran-bel…

Immediately after Oct. 7, Bill Ackman and his ilk organized a blacklist to bar Americans criticizing Israel from ever having a job in finance, law, Silicon Valley, etc. That led to a wave of mass firings over Israel. Totally unsurprising that this created a massive backlash:

US lawyer and antiwar activist Dan Kovalik just had his devices seized and was interrogated by counter-terror police at Liverpool Airport Meanwhile, Palestine solidarity activist Sarah Wilkinson is heading to trial on terrorism charges for a couple of Twitter posts, and refusing to give police her mobile pin The Canary, one of the UK’s most doggedly antiwar independent media outlets, was just debanked by Lloyd’s The UK recently refused entry to Hasan Piker and Cenk Uyghur, two of the most recognizable voices of the left wing of the US Democratic Party, on national security grounds It did the same this month to US journalist Jeremy Loffredo UK counter terror police detained and interrogated my colleague, Kit Klarenberg, seizing his devices, and grilling him about his investigative journalism. PM Keir Starmer’s Labour Together slush fund even hired a private intel firm to smear Kit and The Grayzone. UK police raided journalist Asa Winstanley’s home and illegally seized his devices on suspicion of “encouragement of terrorism” The UK Crown Prosecution Service attempted to prosecute journalist Richard Medhurst under the Terrorism Act, but failed The list of journalists and activists repressed by the British regime goes on and on. And they have one thing in common: outspoken opposition to Israel’s genocidal agenda. Who’s actually in charge in London?

Everyone already knows this. That's one of many reasons why it's so sinister and dangerous to consolidate all sorts of massive domestic and war-fighting power in his hands and Palantir's.

Curt Mills on Kushner: “It’s hard to argue that Kushner’s involvement in politics has been a net good for the administration or the US. I think he’s using his cards to potentially line his own pockets. This is not Burisma. This is not Hunter Biden stuff. This is serious money.”

Gaza’s Ministry of Health (MoH) certified 72,835 Palestinians violently killed between 7 Oct, 2023 and 7 May, 2026. The graphic produced by @iraqbodycount represents deaths recorded in each of 135 weeks, along with the death toll of each month. This does not include deaths from Israeli blockades restricting access to food, water, fuel, shelter, medical supplies and treatment. Totals for recent months may include a number of recovered bodies and other victims who were killed in earlier periods. Thousands more remain ‘missing’. These data extend and replace earlier lists of named victims containing demographic details released by the MoH, and reflect their continuing efforts to record, identify and publicly register the dead in Gaza.

The whole nation awakened this morning to the somber news from Colorado: there's apparently someone named "Diana DeGette" who has been a member of the US Congress non-stop for the last 30 years. First elected in Bill Clinton's first term. How will the US survive without her?
