As Israel continues to unleash utter depravity against the Palestinian people in full view of the world, it equally does nothing to hide its intentions. In Netanyahu's speech, which received almost no coverage of any significance in the Western media, he says the following:

The second claim – that we are unwilling to discuss the final stage. This is also incorrect. We are willing. Hamas will lay down its weapons. Its leaders will be allowed to leave.

We will see to the general security in the Gaza Strip and will allow the realization of the Trump plan for voluntary migration. This is the plan. We are not hiding this and are ready to discuss it at any time.

Ever since Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people began, you’ve heard me say something along these lines - why isn’t this headline news in the Western media? Why is the Western media failing to cover this either properly, or at all?

More journalists have been killed in Israel’s genocide in Gaza than in the past seven major U.S.-involved wars combined, marking the “worst ever conflict” for reporters in history, a new report says.

As of late March, at least 232 journalists have been killed in the Gaza genocide, with the vast majority being Palestinians, according to a new paper by the Costs of War project in Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs. Nearly 380 journalists have been wounded in the violence as of January, per the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate.

I was watching buffy and the eighth episode of the first season a demon is scanned into the computers. This is a funny time as its when people where online with dialup. All the same it had a quote I feel is apropos to the current period. Truns out that show had a bit of the simpsons precog ability:

Giles: Nonsense! I simply don't adhere to a, a knee-jerk assumption that because something is new, it's better.

Ms. Calendar: This isn't a fad, Rupert! We are creating a new society here.

Giles: A society in which human interaction is all but obsolete? In which people can be completely manipulated by technology, well, well... Thank you, I'll pass.

Imagine yourself standing in the midst of a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, where the very fabric of reality seems to have been torn apart. The air is thick with the acrid smell of smoke and ash, and the sky is a deep, foreboding grey.

As you look around, you see a landscape that is both hauntingly beautiful and utterly devastated. The ruins of buildings stretch out as far as the eye can see, their crumbling walls covered in a thick layer of dust and debris. The ground beneath your feet is dry and cracked, and the only sound is the soft, mournful whisper of the wind.
