NJ governor Mikie Sherrill's only been in office ~4 months, but since she sent State Police in riot gear to arrest Delaney protesters—before announcing how she'd address hunger and labor strikers' demands—residents who just voted her in are talking about ousting her. my latest @us.theguardian.com

Seeing Rai’s coverage of the genocide in, and liberation of, Bangladesh radically changed my sense of what South Asian history “looked like”. An extraordinary life which brought so many other lives into the light.

Horrifying. 100 strikes in 10 minutes across Lebanon, incl Beirut. Over 200 ppl killed and 1000+ injured by occupation's Operation "Eternal Darkness". Israel says no ceasefire on its part. Iran has responded saying Strait of Hormuz will not reopen unless ceasefire includes Lebanon & Gaza.

I know someone’s going to look at this and reference that tweet about how as Apartheid South Africa was falling, they bombed all their neighbors as an accelerationist gasp of dying empire. I know; but seeing this feels like Israel remains an unchecked death machine, no signs of stopping in sight.

Post"Ceasefire" Negotiations will center on 10 points from Iran, incl: -Permanent end to the war - End to Israeli strikes in Lebanon - Lifting of all US sanctions on Iran - Iran would reopen Strait - Iran would establish rules & fees (2 million per ship split w Oman) for passage through Hormuz

It’s precisely because of the anti-imperialist stance expressed by the workers that the us-zios bombed the South Pars gas fields. Workers also a symbol of resistance against US imperialism and for sovereignty even as they called for betterment of their conditions. Invaluable from Helyeh Doutaghi.

Helyeh Doutaghi on x: It’s not lost on me that the attack on South Pars occurred on the eve of the anniversary of Iran’s oil nationalization—a significant assertion of sovereignty over natural resources. That assertion was met first with a CIA-backed coup against the democratically elected government that claimed that right; it then evolved into decades of US-led sanctions designed to cripple the ability to develop those resources; and it has now culminated in the US bombing the very infrastructure built despite those efforts to halt it.

Equally important is that South Pars is home to Iran’s largest anti-imperialist labor union, defending workers’ rights while protecting them from imperialist appropriation. This attack, therefore, is also a direct assault on the union and its significant struggle for workers rights

Afghans make up world’s largest refugee population. Nearly 1 in 7 refugees worldwide are Afghan, 90% of whom live in Iran, under current bombardment, and Pakistan, under “emergency” internment, with both nations regularly deporting refugee populations. Unbearable cruelty in every dimension.

Israel did this for 800 days (and 80 years) in Palestine only for “international order” to lightly frown and say “be nicer next time” while this terrorist state loudly announced it’s plan to make the region into a mass grave. The destruction of Palestine is the destruction of the earth.

Lot of people saying this is Taliban/ISIS-esque, but remember that the US turned the ancient city of Babylon into a military camp, used it as a playground, and left is destroyed while massacring the people whose antiquity it was. US Imperialism seeks to destroy pasts, presents, and futures at once.
