Thanks again Hasan for the fantastic conversation today. Your community (and soundboard) exceeded all our expectations.

Together, we raised over $56,000, the most our campaign has achieved in a single day.

Next month, I'm starting on my Substack a mini-series about the history of the Egyptian military in colonial Sudan.

Happy International Women’s Day

P.S we inspire the little boys too

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

Bari Weiss Is Going Full ‘Propaganda-Palooza’ With the Iran War The CBS News war coverage is going exactly as we thought it would. Plus, Gayle King goes 'all in' on Weiss, while CNN commentator Scott Jennings sucks up to her.

Funny how you went for the leftists instead of US/IL governments that have decided to make a martyr out of an 86 year old man, by killing him w/ his family in Ramadan, and attempt to start a wide scale civil war in Iran. This is not helpful. No real democracy comes atop a tank, let alone an Abrams.

Talarico: It doesn’t matter what happens in this Republican runoff. We already know who we’re running against — the billionaire megadonors and their corrupt political system.

The only truth in that is that we are a threat — a threat to their corrupt system.

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Trump Administration Abandons Efforts to Impose Orders on Law Firms

Again, when it's time to put up or shut up in court, the Trump Admin loses. This is a moment to commend the law firms that refused to appease a bullying president & shame those who capitulated.
 
History — and hopefully future clients — will remember who stood firm & who folded.

@maddow.bsky.social downfall as a respectable member of the media is spectacular! Once beloved for her analysis on US domestic issues, she has unmasked herself as a “Progressive Except for Palestine”, a war hawk and supporter of Israeli aggression and war crimes. What a sad and disappointing turn.

The only way out is an acknowledgement of this knowledge gap and instead open the floor (either on your or HasanAbi‘s stream) to SE-Asian voices from the left and have a discussion of impact of US SE-Asia+China doctrine on the region and possible leftist-3rd way forward 2/2 @katmabu.bsky.social

I think you are a great candidate in general, except when it comes to far East foreign policy. I can’t blame you: you have probably grown under a pedagogy of Western Hegemony that is very insidious and can taint the minds of even the most left wing candidates. 1/2 @katmabu.bsky.social

It’s funny since less time than S21, countries like Egypt, ten to struggle more with megaprojects, started and (will) complete major rail construction projects including metro lines 3 and 4 in Cairo, and an entire new High speed rail network using German rail technology from Siemens and Knecht TBMs

The story they describe of AlHassan is such an example of a “back door diplomacy” or 3rd way diplomacy, rather than an actual spy-agent operation. Perhaps if we are really generous this maybe considered a reconnaissance operation. I guess they are desperately looking to showcase wins here.
