  • Live stream announcement from Al-Quassam Brigades on YouTube, happening right now: https://www.youtube.com/live/B21OJIb66-U

    EDIT: It repeats.

    EDIT: Interesting. They call the Oct 7 action “preemptive”. I can’t recall exactly how this has been documented over the last year, but I suspect this means Hamas had good intel telling them that Israel’s escalation of the genocide that’s happening over the last year was going to happen anyway. We should perhaps work on analyzing this and making it clear where/if true. On some level we’ve, of course, known that Israel was just looking for an excuse to flatten Gaza. But solid evidence of that that we could shove in liberals’ faces would be pretty cool. It undermines the “but, but, but was it WORTH IT?!” argument.

    EDIT: LOL. I posted and stickied this in /r/BreadTube. Then I cross-posted it to /r/Palestine, who removed it, citing “Reddit’s Content Policy, Reddiquette, and Moderator Code of Conduct”. Sorry, but: fucking cowards! (They also removed a video of a rally by Jill Stein, Worker’s Strike Back, and Abandon Harris about opposing electoral support for genocide, but w/e.)





  • The “slower” bit is even highly questionable. The competent fascist (Genocide Joe) has been enacting fascist policy far longer and far more effectively than the incompetent fascist (Trump). Including implementing some of Trump’s own failed policies.

    It “helps” that all the liberals stay home and don’t bother to oppose it when that vaneer of decorum and respectability is included, of course.
