  • A clear communication of the standard colonial narrative. Do not expect them to speak truth to power. Tune in to find out what Israel wants you to know!

    If a ceasefire is violated 220 times in 6 days by one side then it is not a ceasefire it is a tool of oppression.

  • A naval blockade is an act of war. No matter what you call it. That goes for Cuba too. These are acts of war, is it so surprising that someone is standing up to this bullying behavior?

    A ceasefire means you stop firing so: the ceasefire is holding despite Israel bombing Lebanon. Is in fact a lie, as it means Israel has violated the ceasefire.

    Like wise a naval blockade (which is an act of war) also violates a ceasefire.

    Stop making me check every word you say. I can't trust you. Be better.
