Oh, and BTW - about the white female privilege part of the blue no matter who crowd ...

... shout out to Nick from RBN for throwing their shit back in their faces where it came from.


Wonder if anyone on the supposed 'left' in the liberal or so-called blue no matter who crowd would condemn this.

You know, someone who openly is bragging about committing further genocide and war crimes on behalf of the rich and powerful who control crapitalism.

“The ministry further affirmed that such [a] statement is considered a direct disregard for international legitimacy decisions and international consensus on protecting civilians and securing their basic humanitarian needs,” a ministry statement said on Thursday, according to Al Jazeera. 

The controversy arose because of comments Smotrich, a far-right politician, made about humanitarian aid at a conference on Monday. 

“We bring in aid because there is no choice,” he said. “We can’t, in the current global reality, manage a war. Nobody will let us cause 2 million civilians to die of hunger, even though it might be justified and moral, until our hostages are returned.”

Critics argued that Smotrich’s remarks conveyed not only indifference to Palestinian suffering and death but also, more specifically, an attempt to justify Israel’s documented practice of blocking or disrupting aid from reaching the Gaza Strip. 

Human rights groups say that Israel has obstructed aid during its 10-month siege of the enclave, which has killed many tens of thousands of Palestinians and displaced the vast majority of the population. Some groups have accused Israel of using starvation as a “weapon of war,” which is a war crime.

Can anyone realisitically expect any subtle shifts in narratives from establishment media?

I remain skeptical, but we'll see -

With the deaths of over 40,000 Palestinians, including the industrial slaughter of children, induced famine and the destruction of the means of basic survival in Gaza, continuing to offer a representation of events that facilitates the colonial project may no longer be an option.

Any further editorial passivity and lack of moral voice risks a complete collapse. In order to avoid it, legacy media leaders will need to assert self-preservation by creating a degree of separation between their newsrooms and the delusions of Western elites that they’re tasked with serving. The ICJ ruling offers an opportunity.

US court rules Google an illegal online search monopoly.




Google has been dealt a serious blow in its ongoing antitrust lawsuit, originally filed by the U.S. federal government in 2020. Federal judge Amit Mehta ruled that Google had violated Section 2 of the Sherman Act, concluding that Google is a monopolist that has spent billions of dollars trying to maintain that monopoly.

Scamazon and Israel war crimes.
