JOE LAURIA—The British establishment, in both parties, have begun to rip themselves apart over what Israel is doing in Gaza and Britain’s role in it. It is a debate, frankly, that should have begun six days after Israel’s assault began, not six months later. But it nonetheless augurs poorly for the continued staunch support of a state that can no longer easily hide its crimes behind the historic persecution of its people 80 years ago. Some U.K. civil servants threaten to strike fearing liability for approving arms shipments.

9 minutes readEDITOR—The panel discusses the international situation and the absurd election facing Americans in 2024, offering no good outcome any way the population votes, as democracy does not exist in the US and probably hasn’t far longer than most would admit.

INDRAJIT—The sheer amount of dry work that goes into wet work is staggering, and yet we’ve only seen one or two resignations. Thousands of people are participating in this genocide as their daily job, and they just go home and play with their kids and walk their dogs like it’s nothing. ‘Israel’ as a country is completely deranged, but America is equally arranged around this. This is not a collective madness, it’s a collective methodicalness. That’s what’s so diabolical. There are spreadsheets behind the shrouds, there are meetings about people we’ll never meet again, there are hotspots marking the hospitals, there are addendums listing all the academics to be killed, and the locations of all the universities. People are having refreshments while they discuss starving other people to death, and choosing coffee or tea while unleashing killer drones to hunt those looking for sustenance.

Why Biden Doesn’t Want Americans to Visit Russia
27 minutes readJOHN VAROLI—In their effort to support the liberal globalist war machine, major western media unabashedly fabricate their coverage of Russia, a country that they hate because of its defense of national sovereignty and traditional values.
In the realm of western media lies, life in Russia is akin to North Korea — poverty is rampant and economic collapse imminent under the pressure of sanctions; secret police scour dark empty streets for hapless victims to drag off to slave labor camps; the Kremlin arbitrarily invades neighboring nations “to rebuild the Soviet empire”; and every Russian wants to escape and flee to the West.

Gaza War Sit Rep Day 178: Al Shifa Hospital Aftermath and Iranian Commander Assassinated
8 minutes readEDITOR—The panel discusses the depravity of Israel’s systematic destruction of Gaza’s hospitals, al Shifa being the latest, now lying mostly in ashes, a cowardly act that did not go without some heavy cost to the IDF since Hamas fighters mounted a stubborn resistance that forced the Israelis to withdraw. A remarkable accomplishment in itself.
The examination of the remains of the building shows it was the stage for horrifying violence against captive unarmed civilians, including many women and children. This includes massacres, rape, and other crimes that, from a pure moral standpoint, should receive much wider coverage on the mainstream media, but surely will not.
