NEW: An open letter in solidarity with Iran’s political prisoners drew vitriolic condemnation from parts of the anti-imperialist left — but the criticisms are short-sighted and misplaced, argues Yassin al-Haj Saleh, a former political prisoner in Syria, for @newlinesmag.bsky.social

The Attacks on an Open Letter to Iran’s Political Prisoners Are Misguided
Why should the victims of massacres be expected to stand beside their executioners in the name of anti-imperial resistance?

No depths to which Prashad can sink at this point in the defense of regimes that have killed thousands but it’s telling how he acts to try and delegitimize the letter, knowing it could have sway—classic tactic in the defense of regimes with questionable human rights records

For example, this flew under the radar at the time but the reason American mines ended up in a Iranian village was because we were trying to prevent the movement of mobile launchers rather than try and take them out directly

#⃣ It's now the 56th day of #Iran's internet blackout, with international connectivity severed for over 1320 hours. The measure, the longest recorded national internet shutdown in a connected society, continues while conditions deteriorate amid warfare and reported executions.
Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity in Iran from 24 February 2026 to 24 April 2026. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity, ranging from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents the dates. The green line representing Iran's connectivity is high through the initial time period, with a sharp drop on the morning of 28 February. The continued drop in connectivity aligns with a nation-scale internet blackout imposed by authorities after joint military strikes by the US and Israel. A brief restoration was observed on 18 March. The minimum and current connectivity levels are indicated as 1% and 1%, respectively. The chart has a dark background with a red horizontal arrow labeled 'SHUTDOWN' indicating the disruption period, and the NetBlocks logo in the lower left corner with the Mapping Internet Freedom slogan.

A big issue of contention here is that the US thinks it's negotiating from a position of strength and is behaving as such, when the reality is that Iran clearly has the upper hand and is dictating terms to the US, not the other way around.

So the state-of-play here as I understand it is that the USA and Iran both agreed to a two-week ceasefire, but understand themselves (or claim to) as agreeing to a ceasefire on different terms re: the strait of hormuz, so it is a kind of 'clap your hands if you believe' sort of ceasefire.

Screenshot of a post by David Miller stating, “Taxes are for goyim, apparently.” The post includes a quoted post from an account called “Echo Chamber,” which presents an alleged exchange involving Larry Summers and Jeffrey Epstein about tax breaks in the 2017 Tax Act. The quoted text attributes a statement to Epstein saying tax loopholes were closed “at least for the goyim.” Below the quoted post are two side-by-side screenshots of email documents with portions blacked out, showing email headers, timestamps, and partial message text referencing tax legislation and exemptions.
