Let me tell you something about people who go around waving flags of Israel.
They support an ideology - Zionism - that advocates for the destruction of brown people.
They are bigots.
They are bullies.
They are racist.
They are thieves.
They support murderers.
They support destruction.
They don't support open and honest debates or discussions.
They fuel hatred, racial and religious supremacy to justify the ethnic cleansing of Palestine. This means the destroying of the people who lived there centuries before they took over.
But the worst part is, when confronted with the facts and evidence that support all this, instead of acknowledging this, or trying to respond, they can't. Instead they deflect and project their own hatred on others (the anti-Semite one in particular is quite the trope they use; ironic since many of the Israeli Jews who live there aren't actually Semites).
Sounds a lot like what happened here in North America with the Indigenous people here, and then the Black people brought in as slaves.
They are psychopaths supporting criminal and murderous activities. The fact is, there is no reasoning or debating or even discussing such a subject.
Sadly - like the US Empire - they are a cancer feeding on the host. And they will do so until all are destroyed.
I fear that's what will happen to the Palestinians. And it's a really bad sign for all of humanity.
Because if we cannot save one group of people from doing all these things to another group, how are we going to collectively save ourselves from the coming Ecocide?
Here's but one example -> https://climateandcapitalism.com/2026/06/24/the-worlds-heatwaves-are-a-global-health-emergency/

The weekend work went pretty well.
Couple of minor hiccups, but ultimately we prevailed and got a lot of work done.
Other than a couple of 'likes' from 'leadership' via their mobile phones, it drew no attention otherwise.
Nor surprising.

Even in ecological catastrophe, hand it to the rich and powerful to continue kicking people when down.

Euro-centric settler-colonialists always stick together, don't they?
I mean, that's one of the basic tenets of white supremacy. It's origins are religious in nature, but based ultimately on hatred.
Think I'm delusional?
In this context, Israel has long maintained strong relations with the Republika Srpska. Cvijanović met with Netanyahu in a diplomatic setting without Bosnian flags, prompting the Bosnian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to issue a formal note of protest. The visit sparked outrage in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with critics warning that Cvijanović was aligning with an entity accused of war crimes and promoting islamophobic narratives.
This concern was linked to Sa’ar’s remarks about the “need to safeguard Christian minorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina,” as well as Cvijanović’s speech at the JNS Summit. There, she praised Israel for building “democracy” in the region and called for intelligence sharing and “strengthening security partnerships.”

Tennessee at the center of far-right assault on Black voting rights
https://liberationnews.org/tennessee-at-the-center-of-far-right-assault-on-black-voting-rights/
... we have never won any of our rights by sitting around and waiting for politicians or courts to save us. Our power comes from collective struggle. To fight back against these anti-democratic attacks, we cannot despair. Neither can we merely vote harder in a system that was not designed to reflect the interests of working-class, and especially Black people, in the South. Instead, we must organize.
The Civil Rights Revolution that won the Voting Rights Act was nothing short of a Second Reconstruction. As the far-right tries to roll back these gains, we know that it will take a Third Reconstruction — a Socialist Reconstruction — to win the lives we deserve, once and for all.
This should surprise no one really, as it's the same state where the KKK was founded -
On December 24, 1865, a group of former Confederate soldiers established what would become the first chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in Pulaski, Tennessee.
Dating and Zionism - who knew how fucked up such a thing would be in this day and age?
I'm off the market, but even if I wasn't - I'd still stay away from this.
Tinder’s Secret War: How Israel used the Dating App in the Propaganda Battle for South Lebanon
The choice tid-bit -
Tinder, the most popular “dating” app in the world, boasts over 75 million active users in more than 190 countries. It is owned by Match Group – a multi billion dollar conglomerate that owns the largest market share of dating platforms – Hinge, Match.com, OkCupid. Plenty of Fish, Salams, and others.
Largest market share also means one of the largest data gold mines – personal and intimate user data, messages, video calls, facial recognition and location data on potentially hundreds of millions of users across Match Group’s dozens of dating applications. Tinder’s user data was found in a breach at Gravy Analytics – a data broker company who sells data to governmental agencies to be used for police and military location tracking.
But Match Group’s strategy and their technologies became fully militarized after Zionist billionaire investor and trump donor Paul Singer and his Elliot Management group built a $1 billion stake in the company in January 2024.
Paul Singer has long worked to integrate Israeli military tech into global markets – co-founding Start-Up Nation Central (SUNC), a Tel Aviv based nonprofit started to combat the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. SUNC works to promote Israeli tech and get Unit 8200 officers – Israel’s elite military intelligence unit – hired at all major US tech firms like Google, Microsoft, OpenAI and Palantir.

Quote of the day - 06-23-2026.
Israelis, intoxicated by the fantasy of being the chosen people, do not have friends. They do not have allies. They have those they use and those they slaughter.

Amazing how all these white folks seem to get away with all sorts of shit, and against kids and teens.
Wonder if it's system thing?
You know, a system that's colored by say, white supremacy?
Ah so what? A few billion dollars off; big deal!
A new report from the Project On Government Oversight (POGO), written by David Vine, John Bellamy Foster and Gisela Cernadas, argues that this widely reported number dramatically understates the true cost of maintaining the US military. Using five different methodologies, the report estimates that total military spending in 2025 was between $1.5 trillion and $1.8 trillion and could be as high as $2.3 trillion when interest payments associated with military-related debt are included. The report concludes that the United States has been spending well above $1 trillion on military activities for many years, contrary to the common perception that this threshold was only recently crossed.
According to the analysis conducted by the POGO, the Hartung/Smithberger methodology produces the highest base estimate at $1,766,172,000,000, followed by the Wheeler approach at $1,727,634,000,000 and the figure reported by USAspending.gov at $1,717,989,509,643. The Cernadas/Foster and National Priorities Project methodologies yield comparatively lower base estimates of $1,494,236,125,000 and $1,477,081,000,000, respectively. When interest is incorporated, the totals increase substantially, ranging from $1,713,283,160,060 under the National Priorities Project methodology to $2,284,383,842,468 under the Cernadas/Foster approach. It should be noted that the National Priorities Project figure focuses on discretionary spending and excludes mandatory forms of spending; were the latter included, this estimate would align far more closely with the others.

Quote of the day - 06-16-2026.
If a company cannot determine how its technology was used in a military operation, what does oversight mean? If executives lack visibility into deployment, then claims about safeguards become difficult to evaluate. If a system contributes to military processes whose consequences include mass civilian casualties, can responsibility be confined solely to the final human actor? These are not questions for Anthropic alone. They confront the entire emerging alliance between Silicon Valley and the US national security state. Throughout history, periods of technological transformation have produced new partnerships between capital and military power. Railways, telegraphs, aviation, nuclear physics, and digital networks all followed this path. Artificial intelligence is now walking the same road. Its advocates promise precision, efficiency, and fewer mistakes. Yet every generation hears similar promises.
The twentieth century was filled with claims that new technologies would make war cleaner, more rational, and more humane. The historical record offers little support for such optimism. Technology often expands the scale and speed of violence even as it promises to restrain it. The children of Minab did not encounter AI as a philosophical debate. They encountered it as part of a military system whose consequences arrived in the form of explosive force. Whether Claude played a significant role, a minor role, or no role at all in the targeting process remains to be determined. Investigators must establish the facts, journalists must continue asking difficult questions, and citizens must demand transparency. But even before those facts are fully known, the episode reveals something important about our political moment. The question is no longer whether AI will be integrated into war. That integration is already underway. The question is whether societies will permit decisions about life and death to be increasingly shaped by systems that even their creators struggle to monitor, explain, or control.
The schoolhouse in Minab stands as a warning, not only about a single strike, or a single company, or a single war. It warns of a future in which technological power advances faster than public accountability. And in that future, the distance between the engineer and the battlefield grows ever smaller with AI and drones, even as responsibility becomes harder to find amongst the humans who send the machines out to kill for them.
Another brown child killed, and no one cares.
Israeli soldiers shot seven-year-old Rayyan Abu al-Ajeen in his father’s arms and mocked his father’s pleas as he cried for his dying son. The father says they were in the part of Gaza designated as “safe” for civilians during the “ceasefire.”
The real legacy of events like Juneteenth, are a reminder that white supremacy and racism are systemic, not individual nor collective.
They are basic functions of the system, and always have been.

Another 'ceasefire' that will go down in flames, thanks to ethnostate Israel.
Should anyone really be surprised when (not if) this happens?
This is what happens when society's economic and political systems are hierarchical in nature - such that psychopaths and criminals always rise to the top to serve the rich and powerful.
The collapse of 'Western support', or the collapse of the 'West'?
https://scheerpost.com/2026/06/15/new-threat-to-netanyahu-the-collapse-of-western-support/
Since the 'West' (i.e. the US Empire and its vassals) is the biggest threat to the planet (thanks in part to its neo-capitalist republic economic system), this couldn't happen at a better time.
But more importantly, it's a reminder that bullies exist because of the tacit (or sometimes direct) approval of the environment or system they exist in.

A victory for independent media in India.
Don't take my word for it -
On Wednesday, a single judge bench of the Delhi High Court quashed the cases filed by Delhi police’s Economic Offences’ Wing (EOW) and the country’s Directorate of Enforcement (ED) agency handling issues related to economic fraud, claiming their continuation was “nothing but a gross abuse of the process of law.”
The judge, Neena Bansal Krishna, further observed that the ED proceedings were “not only mala fide, but also an arbitrary attack and abuse of powers on the free and impartial journalism of NewsClick and Prabir Purkayastha.”

Human life.
Most people live in this imaginary world of believed mental constructs that offer up all sorts of reasons to feel anxious and afraid and hostile and ashamed. And then clever manipulators use those feelings to get us consenting to wars and injustices and all the self-destructive human behavior we see before us today. And that’s why everything’s as messed up as it is.The world as it actually exists could not be more different from the world our thoughts describe. Life experienced lucidly is as different from life filtered through thought as any two things could possibly be.The human organism can function perfectly fine without nonstop mental chatter. Thought can be nothing more than a useful tool that gets picked up when it’s needed and set down when it’s not, with attention resting in the profound wondrousness of the senses instead of mental babbling about made-up nonsense throughout the day.It can take some work to undo all the interior dysfunction and come to this level of clarity, but it’s not nearly as much work as we’re already exerting in continuously turning the wheels of our insanity and keeping all these fictional worlds happening inside our heads. Bringing clarity to our inner processes and awakening to reality is actually the easy path. It’s just so much more peaceful and enjoyable.
The true face of genocide - is killing with one simply because they exist.
In this case, a 7-month old child - Sam Abu Haikal.
Because he was brown. Because his parents were brown. Because they - along with all the other Palestinians - represent a threat to US Imperialism/Capitalism/Settler-Colonialism, and so on.
Israeli soldiers shot and killed this Palestinian baby in the West Bank
Sam Abu Haikal was riding in his parents' car through Hebron when Israeli soldiers opened fire. His mother is in intensive care, and his father, wounded in the hand, buried him alone the next morning. He was only seven months old.
And yet, here in America, people are completely (or nearly completely) delusional, self-absorbed, and too caught up in all the perpetual propaganda to really understand.
This is what holds all of us back.

Sigh - so ends another vacation.
I didn't get everything I wanted done. But I did get a lot done -
- Wrote some new songs.
- Recorded lots of guitar, bass, drums and keyboard parts for songs.
- New music for future songs.
Wasn't able to get much done with vocals. I have to finally accept that I'll need to set up some sort of acoustically-treated booth of sorts to do that.
Still much more to do. It's a journey. Sometimes I wish I could do more. Sometimes I wish I had started this much sooner (though I remind myself, the technology to do what I can now, didn't exist back then).

The US and Israel militaries becoming one and the same - can't make this shit up.
And I thought it was hard to keep up with reality or the Dubya years.
https://www.mintpressnews.com/ndaa-new-u-s-bill-will-fuse-israel-and-u-s-militaries-into-one/290951/
Section 224 of the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) proposes to join the two forces together at the hip, laying the groundwork for extensive cooperation into “seemingly every manner of U.S.-Israeli military-industrial complex cooperation,” according to the Institute for Responsible Statecraft.This includes the research, development, and production of modern, hi-tech arms, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, drones, directed energy, cyber, and autonomous weapons systems. It would compel the United States to integrate Israeli arms and technologies into its defense supply chain, and fuse the countries’ data capturing and storage facilities together, meaning that Israel could have access to essentially all the U.S. military’s data.The bill also requires the creation of a new position within the Department of Defense: an executive agent whose role is to coordinate cooperation and integration between the two parties.In essence, then, it would dramatically change the relationship between the two states, from one where Washington supplies Tel Aviv with money, weapons, and diplomatic support, to a situation where the two are fundamentally intertwined.
This article from The Black Agenda Report reminds me WHY I don't follow the NFL.
And it's because of what the business did to this guy because he stood up (or rather took a knee) for what he saw was a great injustice, and it cost him his career.
