"It's mere routine for imperial powers to strike terrorists oceans away" could it be not though? I think it would be nice if they would not bomb people.

"but the Houthis are bad"

• This does not excuse bombing civilians, nothing ever does
• Maybe you should try other means to dealing with such groups instead of just hoping they'll just explode
• That's not even the issue here because that chat revealed that bombing Yemen is about political posture rather than any strategic aim. This is something that is said almost explictly

And there's people still defending this. Por favor no sean tan pelotudos.

I mean the best thing that leak did is to prove that US airstrikes are not about protecting the country or fighting terrorism but for posturing the US as a strong country (all the comments about dick measuring with the Europeans)

You would think people picked up in that hypocresy but they didn't and that's because in a sense they still think that bombing people is acceptable.

Argentine who definitely understands American politics

“there’s little to no mention about WHERE the airstrikes were directed to, WHY and WHO they killed.”

Like, you don’t even need a subscription to read this!

For the next part about “WHY”, you need either a subscription or an archived link, but it’s literally in the next paragraph!

And actually, if you read the damn article, you’d know a big part of the conversation was that this strike was about the latter part: the Houthi’s impact on global trade.

Like, this information is handed to people on a silver platter and yet they’re STILL dumb as bricks 🤦‍♀️

guys let’s be nice—oop is still learning to read

so are you all just willfully obtuse? or do you share goldberg’s disregard for the lives of yemeni civilians? the issue is that one of the bombings that was discussed in that chat was a civilian apartment building, a fact highlighted in the screenshot that was shared around after the article came out. goldberg’s article barely touches on the victims and instead shifts the focus to trump’s incompetence in a completely dehumanizing move

when asked about this lack of interest in covering details related to the reported 53 yemeni civilians who were killed during these u.s. airstrikes on npr, this is what he had to say:

Deepa Fernandes: There's little talk of the fact that this attack killed 53 people, as we mentioned, including women and children. The civilian toll of these American strikes. Are we burying the lede here?

Jeffrey Goldberg: Well, those, unfortunately, those aren't confirmed numbers. Those are provided by the Houthis and the Houthi health ministry, I guess. So we don't know that for sure. Yeah, I mean, obviously we're, well, I don't know if we're burying the lede, because obviously huge breaches in national security and safety of information, that's a very, very important story, obviously. And one of the reasons, you know, it's a very important story is that the Republicans themselves consider that to be an important story, when it's Hillary Clinton doing the deed, right? So that's obviously hugely important.

But yeah, I think that covering what's going on in Yemen, the Arab and Iran backed terrorist organization, the Houthis, that are that are firing missiles at Israel and disrupting global shipping and occupy half of Yemen, and all kinds of other things in the US, you know, and the Trump administration criticizing the Biden's response and Europe wants Trump to do more. I mean, yeah, there's, there's a huge story in Yemen. But Yemen is, as you know, is one of the more inaccessible places for Western journalists. So maybe this becomes like a substitute for a discussion of Yemen. I don't know.

here, he casts doubt on the reported death toll and does what he has always done as a reporter, which is shill for the u.s. war on terror and disregard its victims, something he infamously did in the buildup to the disastrous u.s. invasion of iraq. the only reason he holds as high of a position as he does now is because he has never faced a serious reckoning for how wrong all of the justifications that he pushed for that invasion were, and dehumanization of arabs and other civilians in swana is rewarded in the u.s. media

Official watermelon people post (suturesque and oop)

The way you cut off my addition validating suturesque and elbiotipo because you realized it would be too racist to call a Palestinian a “watermelon person”

they've already charged kashmiri protestors with uapa for the crime of standing in solidarity with palestine on youm al-quds

J&K police book pro-Palestinian protesters under draconian UAPA

Thousands of people across Jammu and Kashmir took to the streets on Friday to observe Al-Quds Day in solidarity with Palestine. However, the J&K Police have registered cases under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) against the organisers and participants at certain locations, citing pro-Hezbollah slogans and flag-waving.

Pro-Palestinian protests were held in several parts of Kashmir and Ladakh, with protesters carrying banners that read “Free Palestine” and calling for an end to Israeli occupation. The demonstrations, attended by men, women, and children, were part of the annual Al-Quds Day commemorations, observed on the last Friday of Ramadan.

In Kargil, Ladakh, large groups of protesters marched through busy marketplaces in a show of solidarity with the Palestinian cause. Similar protests took place in Budgam and Baramulla districts of Kashmir, where demonstrators raised slogans against Israel and the United States while waving Hezbollah flags and carrying banners featuring Lebanese cleric and Hezbollah commander Hassan Nasrallah and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.

The police have booked unknown protesters under the UAPA following a demonstration in Baramulla’s Pattan area. An official confirmed that a case (FIR No. 49/2025) was filed at the Pattan police station but did not specify the exact sections of the anti-terror law invoked. The Wire reported.

“In Chainabal, Baramulla district, some protesters were seen waving Hezbollah flags and shouting slogans that could incite public unrest. These actions encourage elements associated with terrorism to engage in subversive activities and attempt to revive terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir,” a police statement stated.
Additionally, in Beerwah, Budgam district, the police registered another case under Sections 126(2) (wrongful restraint) and 189(6) (unlawful assembly) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

According to a police spokesperson, “The organisers attempted to create a law and order situation and blocked the Sonpah-Beerwah road, thereby obstructing the smooth movement of the general public.” The case (FIR No. 33/2025) has been lodged at the Beerwah police station.

Despite the police crackdown, pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protests were reported in various areas of Kashmir, including Bemina in Srinagar, as well as parts of Budgam and Baramulla districts. The demonstrations were marked by slogans such as “Murdabad, Murdabad, Israel Murdabad” (Down with Israel) and “Ae zalimo, ae qafiro, Bait-ul-Muqaddas chhod do” (Oh tyrants, oh infidels, leave Jerusalem).

"This group is overwhelmingly arab" lol I love how they gotta say this because palestinians with israeli citizenship will always skew the results

Is the youths negative perception of Israel due to antisemitism or is it because israeli soldiers posted themselves on tiktok wearing palestinian women's lingerie 🤔

Is it antisemitism or is it the mangled bodies of palestinian children? Is it antisemitism or videos of soldiers making light of blowing up a school or mosque? Is it watching their government approve weapons transfers to Israel to attack a strip of land full of people with no capability to defend themselves? Is it antisemitism or the articles coming out that israeli soldiers admit running their tanks over people, using palestinian captives as human shields in buildings, or admitting they killed children? It's a tough call honestly

Is it antisemitism or is it simply recognizing that Palestinian lives (Arab lives and people of color lives in general) are human lives and being able to have empathy for them?

Is it antisemitism or is it recognizing settler colonialism and its violence against indigenous people, seeing ourselves and so many other people in the Palestinian struggle for liberation?

We are now in the happy Eid al-Fitr, but now it has become a sad Eid al-Fitr stained with blood and innocent martyrs, children and women.

This Eid is very sad and tearful. I don't know how sad anyone is. My father's health is a bit difficult. Please help me.

All people are supposed to be happy these days and joy fills the place but the opposite has happened please Think for a minute about donating to a 15-year-old boy who is trying to save an entire large family.

It is very difficult, things are getting complicated, and we are losing each person every day, despite the suffering, grief, and humiliation caused by the Zionist occupation. Food is becoming scarce, there are no necessities of life, and prices are rising.

I feel like tariffing the "entire world" is literally just functionally sanctioning yourself

I’m sick of living in a world where the who's-who's of pop culture overwhelmingly cheer for genocide.
