Iran launches missiles at Israel, IDF says
  • You and I will agree that Israel is escalating this near century old conflict and the US needs to stop sending weapons to them, but nothing good will come from more bombs being dropped in the region.

  • “Hell Is Breaking Loose in Lebanon”: Israel Rejects Ceasefire Proposal
  • I haven’t seen those videos and I’d like to see them to be informed. Pls link.

    I just know that even the US struggles with targeted ballistics not hitting civilians and I think any focus on that argument weakens her response. Israel’s mandatory conscription makes those standalone sentences mean even less.

  • “Hell Is Breaking Loose in Lebanon”: Israel Rejects Ceasefire Proposal
  • The call to action of boycotting Israel at the end is the valuable part of this quote.

    I wouldn’t die on the hill of “Hezbollah is not targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure” for the fact that they do not have the rocketry capabilities for targeted strikes. Isreal clearly doesn’t either.

  • Caroline Ellison, who helped convict Sam Bankman-Fried, sentenced to two years for FTX crypto fraud
  • Coincidentally I just finished the Behind the Bastards update episode on the Bankman-Fried case from back in 2023. Apparently her diary was leaked by Sam to the press in an attempt to discredit her testimony which backfired on him lmao.

    Good to see her also receive consequences.

  • Death toll from Israeli strikes rises to nearly 400, Lebanon says
  • Power projection and spite.

    Iran cares to fuck with the US, Isreal, and other western powers, likely a ripple effect of this, and Isreal has demonstrated Iran cannot control its own airspace.

    Palestinians have been seeking outside support since the 1948 UN resolution to create the 2 nations / the nakba, even going so far as getting support from the right wing Israeli government .

    It’s a business deal not a moral one.

    Israel’s actions have also put them, and the US, in a (demonstrably) bad light on the world stage, so any support to Palestinians is a PR win for Iran and everyone who’s competing with the US for influence so Russia and China love it too.

  • Hezbollah hits back with more than 100 rockets across a wider and deeper area of Israel
  • Let’s get an arena with Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Likud party members all together to fight it out to the death so the rest of us can find some real solutions. Anyone who disagrees with peace gets put into the fighting pit.

  • Mexico will amend its constitution this weekend to require all judges to be elected
  • IIRC before these changes take affect, Mexico’s President appoints (at least supreme) court judges who have tenure for 15 years. The ruling party is arguing for these changes to combat corruption. Rumor is that the Mexican legal system is corrupt af, and I haven’t seen any alternatives proposed by the opposition in (English) coverage of the protests, but we’ll see how electing judges goes I guess.

  • At least 17 Guard members have died while deployed to Texas border
  • The incidents on the border mission that led to troops dying have varied. Some of the soldier deaths reported include one who died from a medical emergency at a hotel where troops were staying in McAllen, and another who was accidentally shot in Fort Clark Springs. Two other soldiers died in a traffic accident in Laredo — one in the accident and the other by suicide in the minutes after the crash. At least four additional soldiers have died by suicide while assigned to the border.

    • the Sergeant who drowned trying to save people in the Rio Grande

    This article is a ride and it makes this national guard deployment look even worse.
