let me simply say that I stand with Iran. Unequivocally. Any regimes that need changing, including the US, Israel, and ours, need to be changed by the people, not by some bloated, lying, cheating, greedy, resource-grabbing, bomb-dropping imperial power and its allies who are trying to bully the whole world into submission.

The Israelis bombed cars in a heavily populated part of Beirut: Ramlet El Bayda. At least 6 people were killed.
They then bombed Aramoun in Aley, Mt Lebanon.
Neither Ramlet El Bayda nor Aramoun are Israel’s ‘usual’ target areas.
Again: Israel’s goal is to destroy Lebanon itself
You can see how many people were around when Israel decided to bomb Ramlet el Bayda, Beirut
The European Union and United Kingdom, which have largely done nothing at all to hold Israel to account and swear off ever doing anything to hold Israel to account, demand that Israel stop its land theft in the West Bank, or else the EU and UK will do nothing some more.
Only four European countries have banned trade with the illegal settlements in occupied Palestine
Spain
The Netherlands
Belgium
and Slovenia.
I could help contextualize this by sharing links to a bunch of excellent research, but the thing is, you actually don’t need research or to be some kind of brain genius to understand why this is a terrible idea. You just have to think about it for thirty seconds or ask yourself “and THEN what?”

It would be nice if people remembered this piece of wisdom from the greatest economics tweet in history (and the one I am most insanely jealous of not having written, especially because it was a reply to me).
Thanks sir for your brilliant leadership

Saw this just before I went to bed last night. Woke up and yep, it's an actual real post from the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission

Kindleberger trap
I can’t walk out
I’m not the hegemon, baby
Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
My security umbrella’s tearing
We can’t go on together
Strait of Hormuz is mined
Can’t keep the sea lanes open
With suspicious mines

I did not know about gulpo. Thank you
Pictured is gulpo, the fish who eats concepts, from Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal. Gulpo is devouring the concept "HOW DO YOU USE SOLAR WHEN IT GETS DARK" and gulpo is labeled "HOW DO YOU USE FOSSIL FUELS WHEN THE US ENTERS ITS 10 MILLIONTH WAR OF CHOICE IN THE MIDDLE EAST"
The Iran war now involves at least EIGHTEEN different countries.
That in itself should be a major story!
