Though the UAE seems to be denying it, it appears they've already given Iran $3B of a total $20B promised in unfrozen sanction funds. There's no real "winner" to this war (or wars generally) but the US seems to have clearly lost

I filed a complaint to the CBC two weeks ago about their news coverage (CBC News this Hour stated, completely falsely, that Iran had previously rejected demands not to build a nuclear weapon) and the CBC has actually already now posted a correction.

My reflexive feeling hearing Mark Carney vow this week to "protect your data, your privacy and your children" is that, given that he's obviously doing and will do nothing to protect the first two, maybe there's good reason I haven't thought of yet to worry more about my children also

Its sickening to witness open calls for genocide. Its also crushing that there is no significantly organized mass anti war movement in the imperial core, despite decades of endless war and years of livestreamed genocide. "Everything you do, even if small, matters" is ringing hollow for me tbh.

Hossam Shabat, a 23 year old journalist who documented the genocide of his people left a final message. shared by his team.
screenshot of @HossamShabat on twitter: This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :

“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.

By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.

I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”

— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.
