Egypt detains 200 Gaza protesters, including about 30 from Netherlands
Egyptian authorities have detained approximately 200 pro-Palestinian activists from more than 40 countries, including about 30 from the Netherlands, ahead of a planned protest march to the Gaza border. Many Dutch participants reportedly said they were subjected to “unjust and humiliating treatment,” including being held for hours without food, water, medical care, or information.
Approximately 100 Dutch nationals had traveled to Egypt for the march, representing a diverse range of backgrounds, according to the Dutch public broadcaster NOS. Among them were students, teachers, healthcare workers, retirees and artists. Organizers said 18 members of the European Parliament were also expected to join the protest.
One of those detained was the sister of Mark van Rennes, the captain of the protest ship Madleen, who is currently imprisoned in Israel. She was among approximately 30 Dutch activists deported from Egypt to Istanbul, Turkey. She has since confirmed her arrival in Istanbul and is expected to land at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport around 2 p.m., likely accompanied by many of the other deported Dutch citizens, NOS reported.

Not in the field, but I think it depends. It's for sure more dangerous on average if we consider the entire world, but I feel like that's mostly because of certain areas (US w/ toothless FAA and ATC shortage, Russia with the war&part shortages etc, ...) and new Boeing aircraft.
Flying is still the safest mode of travel per km, and if you're flying Airbus/Embraer/COMAC/pre-2010 Boeing it's likely as safe as it was a decade ago. However it kinda sucks due to all the greenhouse gas emissions.
Paranoid Kash Patel polygraphs FBI agents in MAGA purge
The FBI has devolved into chaos amid Director Kash Patel’s ongoing efforts to rid the agency of staff disloyal to the Trump administration.
Patel is now subjecting senior executives to polygraphs at a “rapid rate,” The New York Times reports, as part of a wider effort to stamp out embarrassing news leaks from within the agency.
One senior official told the Times in its exposé that he was forced out last month after being subjected to a lie detector test. He believes he was targeted because he hadn’t told Patel about his wife taking a knee during the 2020 protests against police brutality in Washington, D.C.

Ah yes, because those are totally a real and trustworthy technology and not some snake oil bullshit that is inadmissible in court because of how snake oil bullshit it is.
Anyway, that tracks.
This is basically what J. Edgar Hoover did. I didn't think he ever used a polygraph specifically, but he did ideological purges all the time.
The FBI has always been like this.
(I would say hi to my agent, but let's be honest, he's probably been laid off already)
That doesn't sound legal
But you could also just take it and force the results to be useless

i love how we're still pretending things are otherwise orderly when literal nazi clowns are running the show.
Ok I'm not going to entertain the idea that the actual FBI doesn't know how polygraphs work and how effective they really are.
This is a clear excuse to just oust whomever they don't like.
Trump was not informed of Ukraine attack on Russia
Trump was not informed of a recent Ukrainian attack on Russia, The Hill’s sister network NewsNation confirmed Sunday.
According to NewsNation’s Tanya Noury, an administration official said the president was not given a heads-up about the drone attack that a Ukrainian security official alleged destroyed more than 40 planes well within Russian territory, according to The Associated Press.
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5327835-trump-ukraine-attack-russia/
I think the facts demonstrate otherwise. It's more accurate to say he's not learning much, and I think that someone like Donald, who has to be the center of international attention, is going to notice when the other national players start leaving him out of the loop.
That Donald reacted to the bond markets panicking in the face of his tariffs demonstrates that someone inside that Administration has the ability to get him to see reason. It's a bummer that they don't bend his ear more often.
We are currently clean on OPSEC
the level of stupidity involved with formulating this sentence still gives me pause. What the actual fuck are you trying to say, Hesgeth or whatever idiot on the signal chat.... do you really think you're 'clean' on 'opsec' IN FUCKING SIGNAL?
they heard the term opsec from one of their security detail and wanted to jam it in there because it sounded cool.
He said quite possibly the cringiest string of words of all time
I dunno there's quite some contenders in the running, like "Amen, and a-women." 😂
But it's up there!
This is a ridiculous headline.
If this was "Heads of UK, Germany, and France were informed ahead of Ukraine attack; Trump left in the dark" it'd be a different story.
As it stands, there's no reason to think this is anything but clickbait. The real story is the military operation. Don't mention him unless it's actually relevant.

George Stephanopoulos Rips Trump for Monetizing Presidency
George Stephanopoulos, on Sunday, ripped President Donald Trump — highlighting the “unprecedented money-making by a sitting president and his family.”
In a scorching show open on ABC’s This Week, Stephanopoulos called out the Trumps for cashing in on the office — while noting that those who are filling the Trump family coffers are benefitting from “official actions” taken by the White House.
“The scale is staggering,” Stephanopoulos said. “President Trump and his family are making hundreds of millions, potentially billions of dollars — as Trump and his administration take official actions that benefit contributors and investors.”
The ABC News anchor called out Trump’s “pardons to tax cheats,” and various windfalls originating from the Trump family’s foray into cryptocurrency.

"Official Actions". Two very important words, because thanks to the Supreme Court even a future Congress can't even investigate this, much less do anything about it. And forget about this congress lifting a god damned finger, outside of the middle one they keep giving to the people who voted for them.
Thiago Ávila's message to his daughter
"Dear Tereza,
I’m sorry for not being around these past days, but Daddy was trying to bring food to other children as beautiful as you. Unfortunately, they are starving because some people don’t understand that every human being has the right to freedom.
Your father is one of the millions of people doing something to end the greatest violation of rights of our generation.
I truly hope to come home soon. I think of you and your mother every day. And that is why I cannot accept that the world we live in has so much exploitation, oppression, and destruction.
Do not be afraid for your father. I am okay and hopeful."

Religion has always been a way to convince the poor to die for the rich. "Your rewards will come in the next life. Please kill yourself working."
Even Buddhism has the philosophy of suffering in this life will be repaid in the next. Fuck all that shit. There's no fucking reward, just death. Make sure you don't die carrying someone else's debt.
Even Buddhism has the philosophy of suffering in this life will be repaid in the next.
Not all Buddhism. Zen Buddhism, for example, is very clear that it's all about how you live right now, not later, and has nothing to do with reincarnation myths. Unfortunately, with Buddhism, Christianity and all religions, the dumber varieties tend to be the loudest and most popular.
Yeah; for any faith system, you’ll get someone attempting to exploit it to maintain their wealth and power.
Eventually, the entire underlying belief structure that’s usually based on something real becomes overlaid with a prescriptive ideology designed to help a small group of people get their way.
If we will all die anyway, is there anything wrong with killing the wealthy and powerful?
Or does the tune change then?
These Christians love to wear their mascot like a badge while completely contradicting the explicit lessons of the book.
Because they don't actually believe in anything but greed. They use religion as a tool to gain power. Hypocrisy be damned, they couldn't care less. It's the religious idiots that refuse to see this that kill me... But then again it's completely understandable, we are stuck in a 2 party system where it's "the ultimate evil" vs "people I generally agree with but don't particularly like." (That goes for whatever side you're on. We all see the politicians the same, except for the insane Trump cultists.)
No, suicide is a sin so you'd go to hell.
What you would need to do is set up a chain where the one Christian murders another, and then asks Jesus for forgiveness immediately, before the next Christian murders them. And so on...
At the end, you would end up with a single murderer who wouldn't have anyone to do them in... But that could be their sacrifice. Like Jesus or some shit.
From a gilded perch, Trump tries to retain the common touch
There are some lessons here in the article that I think other politicians can learn from. We're often baffled why some people like Trump so much. It explains how he's able (from the perspective of a supporter) feel raw, authentic and validate their concerns.
Of course we don't like him because we study his actions, not his words and know that the "solutions" he's proposing aren't going to help his supporters or help anyone except perhaps the richest of the richest or rather the very wealth people within his inner circle and even then it seems like he's not helping all of the rich or anybody because he's hurting the economy which impacts us all no matter how rich or poor.
So I think the lesson is a politician who could evoke a similar feeling of authenticity without the divisiveness paired with real progressive solutions that will help the average American would do very well in an election and as president.
34% of Russian strategic missile bombers at main airfields damaged in Ukrainian drone operation, SBU reports
The Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) reported that the June 1 “Spider Web” drone operation caused approximately $7 billion in damages and disabled 34% of cruise missile bombers in key Russian airbases.
The agency confirmed that more details about the attack will be revealed later.
“And you thought Ukraine was easy? Ukraine is exceptional. Ukraine is unique. All the steamrollers of history have rolled over it. It has withstood every kind of trial. It is tempered by the highest degree. In today’s world, its value is beyond measure,” the SBU wrote, quoting Ukrainian poet Lina Kostenko.
They also vowed to continue to drive Russian forces out of Ukrainian territory.

Depending on fuel availability and other obligations, it opens them up to some severe implications to enterprising forces. Logistically they must either weaken other theaters (like say Syria or Georgia or Kyrgyzstan) by flying them to replace the lost craft, or simply accept a weakened position with air power over Ukraine. (Assuming all are in service and none are reserve)
Even more so, Russian command will have to gauge if Ukraine is able to replicate this, and how often. If another strike like this is deemed not only possible but imminent, they will have to start using an airbase even further from the front, driving fuel costs up to deliver the same payloads. Additionally, increased flight time means less chance the target will be caught unprepared for your arrival and allows more time to relocate mobile AA to respond to your (now much longer and obvious) flight path.
Edit: The TU-95 (the nuclear capable bigboi) has a fuel range of 15k km (9300mi) so these were already well within range, just flight times will be longer.
You get it, brother.
This actually has huge implications for the war in general. Russias nuclear triad just had the dick blown off of it,
I'd be willing to wager that this was most, if not all the active bombers being used in the Ukrainian theatre. If they are following a loose rule of 3rds with their birds (deployed and flying missions, being prepped for deployment, shut down receiving repairs/overhauls), this very well could severely limit Russia's ability to keep up their cruise missile bombardment.
If that's the case, that frees up Ukraine to be much more flexible with their air defenses.
Not to mention if they were able to pull off a mission like this, allegedly using cell towers to fly their drones, what's stopping them from doing similar limited missions to tank factories, recruit depots, and other places that are further away from the front? Literally all of these targets now become viable because they will be much less heavily guarded than the nuclear triad bombers.
Protecting those assets pulls material and meat from the front lines, which further helps Ukraine.
I can't help but see this as a massive positive swing in momentum for Ukraine.
I think Ukraine can only pull off a big attack like this a few times. Not because they’re incapable, or Russia, now aware of the method, can defend against it, but because each attack generates data. The more data you have, the greater the ability to analyze and spot patterns, which puts Ukrainian operators at risk.
Although it would be excellent if another attack happened very soon against another relatively irreplaceable Russian asset. But a campaign of smaller scale harassment throughout the country would suffice to harm morale and keep supply constraints, well, constrained.
Presumably the other 2/3'rds are operational. Presumably.
We'll have to see how much of their previous pace they can keep up. In any case, every military that can, keeps some things in reserve. What's the likelihood that the ones in storage are still there and not gutted for parts that got sold for vodka?
The US keeps their reserve in Arizona but it isnt a quick, easy, or cheap process to reactivate a plane depending on how it is stored. We have pulled two B-52s out of storage in the last decade as replacements after a ground fire and a crash. One took 19 months and the other took 12+ months.

At this point, Putin can't stop. Weird that everyone acts like he has a choice.
Putin committed to this play, and then went all-in when it didn't play. Three years later, Russia is relying on a rickety, unstable, wartime economy, suffering more and more sanctions. If he pulls out, the whole house of cards comes tumbling down, utter ruin. Which would be fine by me. Fuck Russia.
Putin falling out of a bunker window would be a great meme of the year.
Why is there a window in a bunker? Why not?
To be honest plenty of bad things happened to a country leader that lost a war outside of a bunker.
Just look at Mussolini's death
I love the great news of Ukraine beating Putin's sorry behind - and how that development is spreading to many other news sources.
Slava Ukraini!
And what you have them know? Putin has prosecuted his propaganda in Russia exactly as he had in the West.
Russians think any and all news is bullshit, no source is to be trusted. And look what we have in America today. Huh.
Apparently, the Russians moved a lot of their best bombers far from the front when they realized they were exposed to strikes, so Ukraine hit them with some James Bond, 4D chess operation they’d been planning for a year and a half.
Those bombers had been terrorizing Ukrainian cities, destroying defensive fortifications, and are a key part of the Russian nuclear threat.
Whatever weapons and money everyone is sending Ukraine, double it.
Whatever weapons and money everyone is sending Ukraine, double it.
Freaking truth.
Side thought purely as a hypothetical from a civilian standpoint: I'm wondering if it's too paranoid to consider figuring out how to smoothly use Monero for sending donations.
I'm wondering if records of sending aid to Ukraine will be the newest excuse to get disappeared by goons in the US, the same way they've been crushing the Constitutional rights of anyone who prominently voices anti-zionist dissent.
If a Republican crippled a historic enemies military without a single soldier dying and did so using a fraction of the US military budget they would put him on Mt. Rushmore, but since Biden did it they, and the entire media apparatus, called him a bumbling fool and senile.
Just like how Reagan gets credit for 'ending the Cold War' when a ton of the legwork for that was put in place by Kennedy, Eisenhower, (yes Nixon too), and LBJ and Carter.
Biden has flaws, and I wish Biden really did more to help Ukraine in the beginning of the war, but him helping out and clearing so much equipment to them was a genuinely good thing that he did while in office.
Are we sure that these were the aircrafts shooting the bombs?
Dont get me wrong, i hope they were and every Russian plane that goes up in flames is good, i just want to be really happy if there is some proof those were the actual planes that Ruzzia was using.
Apparently the FOB for the Ukrainians was next door to a FSB post
They shared the same Starbucks
Ukraine did this with $500 drones. No infantry. No tanks or fighter jets.
Ukraine doesn't have the numbers to continue this war, less they want to start drafting 18 year olds.
As much as I want to send them more money and arms, I want a ceasefire and end. Ukraine has lost enough, and they deserve peace.
I doubt Russia will agree to any peace talks though. And it'll be tough to replicate Operation Spiderweb now that Russia knows how it was conducted.
Such a tragic fucking state of affairs
Russia is already sending children in their military and uses donkeys and stolen civilian vehicles for supply.
The fate of ukraine is in our hands, but its their decision what they will give to resist the orks.
You forget that russia is deeply corrupt. This type of operation can be done again.
Getting some inspiraton from hogans heros is good /j
I don't think it's because Trump is a Russian asset which is why they haven't told the White House, but because Ukrainians have had bad experience with their plans being leaked before. The 2023 Ukrainian offensive failed because the Russian knew they were coming, and everyone including the media and their mothers shouted it across the rooftops for weeks. Back then, I thought "isn't this a bad idea to report it on the media"? But then I am an armchair analyst so I guess the Ukrainians and Bidem knew what they were doing (turns out they didn't). Since then, Ukrainians choose to hide their intentions.
Edit: incorrect year
The 2022 offensive failed because there wasn't enough support. Ukraine was saying they needed X tanks, shells, guns, whatever from the West, and they actually got around X/3. Even with that, they very nearly made it far enough that Crimea would have been logistically cut off. Russia would have either needed to come to terms or else Crimea literally and metaphorically starves.
There isn't really a way to hide what you're doing. You have to build up forces at your bases, move a lot of material, etc. The timing wasn't going to be a surprise, either, because local seasonal weather changes put a demand on when you do things.
The Ukrainians were far from cutting off Crimea in 2022. They barely made it like 5-10 kilometres? And unfortunately, the area they recaptured is being slowly grounded away by Russian counterattacks in the past two years. The Ukrainians were hoping that Russia at the time haven't learned their lesson and could replicate Ukrainian rapid offensive in Kharkiv in autumn of 2021.
The surprise Ukrainian offensive into Kursk proved you can hide your intentions. It isn't like Ukraine haven't learned their lesson beforehand. Speaking of which, the incursion wasn't told to the White House either when Biden was president.
It didn't need to be far.
Artillery range is around 70km. You need to get that close to the southern most road along the coast into Crimea, and a little more for padding some defense. Now you can turn that road and anything on it into rubble whenever you want.
Ukraine got within a few km of doing that at some areas.
The Kerch Strait Bridge could be hit whenever by a missile. Ukraine had already hit it by then.
There's a port at Sevestapol. It's also been hit by Ukranian missiles before, and even if not, it's not enough on its own.
Airplanes expend lots of fuel for not much cargo. You're not going to supply Crimea that way.
There would be no logistical options left for Russia. Holding those couple of km more would starve it out. Only question is if Putin tries to hang on out of stubbornness.
It's really good news that a military state lost their war assets used to wage war (they should have never been built to begin with) but i'm gonna use this thread to highlight something else:
If 34% of russian strategic missile bombers got destroyed in a ukrainian drone operation, EU governments are simply lying when they say russia is going to invade europe and that we must stack more billions on the ones we already spend in war.
but not as expensive as Russia invading.
Given ukraine managed to wipe 34% of their strategic missile bombers with a drone operation it sounds like there's room for cuts
Pacifism, unfortunately, is dead in this new age of multilaterlism and worldwide resurging authoritarianism.
Great, let's spend the budget in weapons right before the far right authoritarians reach all governments in Europe! Can't see that going wrong! After all, Europe has never done anything bad militarily!
What would change without having the weapons? Nothing, other than the EU being a soft target for rivaling power blocks, inviting more war into Europe. Look at poor Ukraine. Putler thought them weak and attacked. Same power dynamics since the dawn of man.
You should also keep in mind that the EU is a supra-national federalist construct. So a sudden and all-encompassing power grab of the executive branch by the authoritarians - like the one in the US - simply isn't possible due to all participating nations still being sovereign and having their own military.
You should also keep in mind that the EU is a supra-national federalist construct
It still supports the ongoing genocide in Gaza and supported the invasion of Iraq, the bombing of Yugoslavia, the destruction of Libya, Afghanistan, colonialism in Africa... Seriously, tell me three military interventions done by European countries in the past century that were arguably moral.
No. We have been talking about the present and future threats to the EU while you choose to mostly indulge in past actions that weren't even conducted by justification of Europe's immediate security. Geopolitical concerns have fundamentally changed since then and you are now comparing rotten apples to budding oranges, calling them one and the same, which obviously they are not.
I agree, the EU isn't perfect, but it is the best the world has to offer for the future of democracy and individual freedoms. Afterall, perfect is the enemy of good.
We have been talking about the present and future threats to the EU
And how exactly do you think those other wars were presented in the past? Do you think Nazi politicians weren't telling their population that Lebensraum was exclusively for the defense of German culture and rights against the barbaric Russians? Do you not think that the imperialist powers in WW1 fighting each other framed these wars as defensive to their own populations? Essentially: "trust me bro, this next war will be the defensive war bro, I promise bro"
Geopolitical concerns have fundamentally changed
Didn't I just tell you about the ongoing genocide in Gaza that European states support? How can you claim that things have changed when Europe keeps engaging in genocide?
the EU isn't perfect, but it is the best the world has to offer
"Maybe Europe has a history of barbaric colonialism and imperialism leaving tens (if not hundreds) of millions of deaths in its colonies in Africa, Asia and South America. Maybe European states have fought endless wars among each other in the name of self defence. Maybe Europe continues to engage in the support of genocidal apartheid states such as Israel, and recently itself participated in the bombing of Yugoslavia, Iraq and Libya. Maybe Europe is getting overrun by far-right politicians as we see in Poland, Italy and soon Germany and France. But Europe is the best and most free the world has to offer! Yes, I'm European, but I swear that opinion is completely reasoned, unlike the opinions of people from other countries outside Europe who hold the exact same beliefs towards their own countries! No, I'm not a nationalist/chauvinist"
You are replying in a thread about 34% of Russian strategic Russian bombers being wiped by a "poor" ukraine drone attack.
Same power dynamics since the dawn of man.
Same power dynamics since the dawn of man, rulers use fear to seize power.
If you cannot discern which regime uses which rhetoric
Since the dawn of man no regime is good.
And what about US aggression towards parts of the EU like Greenland? You sure you want to decrease military spending against an increasingly facist super power right on your doorstep that has already openly stated to be very much interested in forcefully attaining your overseas territory? I don’t think so.
The US has more than a thousand military facilities all over europe, if they are your concern the best way to defend against them is indeed cuts.
Pacifism, unfortunately, is dead in this new age of multilaterlism and worldwide resurging authoritarianism.
Don't say nonsense please, if you are concerned with authoritarianism you want to cut the military budget to 0 so that no authoritarian ruler can use it.

tho no mention of vladivostok in that link, which I think was the purpose of the person I replied to
According to a Kyiv Independent SBU source, first-person-view (FPV) drones were covertly transported deep into Russian territory and hidden inside trucks before being launched against four major airfields.
Holy shit that's embarrassing. I mean, those operatives are going to have to flee to Japan to in order to get home, but wow. That's incredible.
A few years before WWI, Russia had a disastrous war against the Japanese, whom they had considered an inferior, small opponent that would be defeated quickly.
Time is a flat circle.
By every account I've read from both sides, seems pretty fucking successful.

"Dozens of long range bombers destroyed"

SLAVA UKRAINE!
Or Putin dies of natural causes. Which isn't too farfetched. Then the oligarchs find themselves a Deng Xiaoping-like figure who says "ok, all that was bad, let's do something else".
Probably, Russia will have to face the facts that they can't build their own fighter jets, bombers, tanks, or fighting ships larger than a destroyer anymore. Not on the scale they need. Even if you assume some of the designs they're putting out are good (a big assumption), they can't possibly build them at scale. China is sitting right over there with the factories for those things. Xi Jinping will be happy to take their check, but will make sure it clears first.
Yeah, but the wording is weird. "34% of cruise missile bombers in key Russian airbases"
Does that mean "34% of all Russian cruise missile bombers were destroyed by hitting those sitting in key Russian airbases" or does that mean "34% of the Russian cruise missile bombers that were currently present in these specific key Russian airbases were destroyed"?
That's two very different statements with very different meanings.
Doubling the already over the top european military budget isn't going to fix any of the things in your first list.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_…
If european countries are concerned with USA instead of doubling their military budget they can simply cut and close the thousands USA military facilities all over europe.
Could be. It could also be as simple as using an actual Russian phone, and having an app on the phone that flies the drone.
We don't know, and I don't want to know so they can keep doing it.

Incomplete. The full phrase is actually:
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
(The buffalo from Buffalo that buffalo (i.e. bully) buffaloes from Buffalo, buffalo (i.e., bully) buffaloes from Buffalo.)
i mean, by the grammatical rules, it's still a valid reply to the comment.
[modifier][noun][verb][modifier][noun].
gödel reminds us: "syntax all on its own cannot determine semantics".
the point is to evidence grammaticalness despite apparent meaningfulness, and the commenter may just be seeking to simulate the point with a logically consistent application of the rules at play. "incomplete" with respect to [mimicking] or [reproducing] an [socio-historical cultural] artifact, but not inconclusive in evidencing the point (remixing to produce variations on the theme; i.e., there are evidences of +20-word recursive sentences, if not larger).
nothing about the buffalo sentence entails the social rule "when someone else posts the buffalo sentence, it must match the aforementioned sentence verbatim". permutations on the point are totally fair game.
"If you push me, I am going to hit you with a Buick."
I've lost "friends" over this philosophy, but the friends I've gained since taking on the philosophy feel a lot more real.
Likewise, if you're being bullied, destroy the bully and the bullying will stop.
Colonel Graff:
Tell me why you kept on kicking him. You had already won.
Ender Wiggin:
Knocking him down won the first fight. I wanted to win all the next ones, too. So they'd leave me alone.
This is Trump's strategy too. Make a brutal enough example of a few universities, or law firms, or immigrants, or other countries' economies, and the rest will comply in advance. Like Trump said in his West Point commencement speech recently: "As much as you wanna fight, I'd rather do it without having to fight. I just wanna look at them and have them fold.”
Reminder: Ender Wiggin is not a fucking hero.
I've said this for a while now. You want to make a dent? You go after the ego.
Picture this: an endless stream of totally “realistic” phone-recorded AI videos of Trump playing golf. He lines up the putt—misses. Tries again—air ball. It’s literally an inch away now—misses again. Doesn’t blink, just traps it in, smirks, walks off like he nailed it. Over and over.
The key is subtlety. These can’t look staged or flashy—make them feel like someone’s nephew filmed it from the cart. Make it look like he’s genuinely terrible but thinks he’s crushing it.
Then blast them everywhere. Flood the algorithm. Turn his “I’m the best at golf” schtick into a punchline.
This is how you use AI to actually take Trump down—with a thousand tiny ego papercuts.
I’m old enough to remember when the advice people gave to deal with a bully was “Beat their ass and they’ll stop.”
But bullies somehow changed the narrative to where fighting back was wrong. It’s not. Self defense is never wrong. The only people that argue this are bullies.
Some people only speak the language of violence, and if you want them to understand your reply it must be delivered in a way they understand.
Bullies do not self correct their behavior. They find it rewarding and it continues until they are stopped.
But bullies somehow changed the narrative to where fighting back was wrong.
I grew up in the age of zero tolerance policies in school which meant you would get suspended for fighting back no matter the circumstances. I blame those policies for the shift.
199% responsible for this shitty version of society where self defense is basically not a concept any more.
Same motherfucker policy was responsible for getting me suspended when I fought back against a bully he hit me from behind knocking me down.
But I remember in middle school had a bully kept picking at me. My dad said the next time he did it to beat the shit out of him. So he was flicking my ear during study hall. So I threw his ass down the blenchers and then beat the fuck of him.
He never messed with me, nor did any other bullies. And I am no fighter and wasn't strong. I found over the years most bullies are just weak ass pussies and that break down if you give any resistance.
Very similar story here when moving somewhere while ESL. Got singled out on the first day and it's like I had a bully magnet on my back. I was so confused, because this had never happened to me before. I'm actually thankful to the one but kid who shoved me, because I lost it on him (I think I took out my culture shock on him lol).
Anyway I wasn't big enough to cause any real damage. I was a slight little guy, even for my age, but I guess trying my best to tear this kid's ear off made an impression, because I never ever got bullied again.
Actually I remember bullies standing up for me, which I'm sure could have been a whole different career path if I was interested in acquiring henchmen rofffl.
I think you're right. I grew up right before that... got bullied a lot until about 6th grade. Got into fights at the bus stop probably once every two weeks or so. Got beat up pretty bad when we had deep snow one time.
Once I got home, I got a knife and a bat and went over to his house where he was outside with a neighbor. I chased that SOB around with a steak knife and a bat until he ran out of breath... didn't hit him when he started crying and begging me not to hurt him; but I sure instilled the fear of god in him.
He's a Baltimore city police officer last I heard.

You cannot run a genocider from the left and expect the base to show up. You need to join the fascist-right if you want to support a fascist right wing ethnic cleaning of innocents. You cant have it both ways.

The fear of being publicly humiliated can lead a narcissist to stop functioning.
Are you wondering what it takes to stop a confident, high-achieving narcissist from functioning? Here are some situations that make narcissists feel totally inadequate.Elinor Greenberg Ph.D. (Psychology Today)
I have big narc tendencies and lemme tell ya that shit would kill me. The only point I am saying this is to harden the fuck up through some niche forum so that ‚public embarrassment’ doesn’t feel like dying anymore.
It kinda worked. But it took a lot of trolling like a lot and multiple bans on any possible social media you can imagine to shape oneself into someone more resistant to words.
First gain resistance by learning to say whatever shit is on your tongue and feel nothing about consequences and then come back to reason and you feel like unlocking superpower. Finally not shaped by others but being more of a rock staying solid and unaffected by external factors whatever happens.
The hardest battles are those we fight with ourselves
It’s a bit of tomfoolery to be honest. I have no idea what I written here but it sounds like ramblings of a lunatic the logic of who made some perverse sense few hours ago but it is too emphemeral to understand after some time passes.
I am method acting comments on lemmy for some reason, looking to see what happens I guess
The thing is I could craft a perfect comment that would be likeable but what would that give me other than empty dopamine?
It’s far more interesting to go against this desire of validation and see what happens.
Can we truly free ourselves from the need to conform? Is it possible?
Nothing I have written recently was written to please an audience. Maybe I have done too much to the other side now, to irritate the audience but that’s how you seek those ways.
All that effort to stop audience in defining who you are and seek authenticity. To stop “being perceived” as the prime factor in “being”
If we look at the common exhibitionist subtype of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) that most people think of when they hear the term narcissist, it is fairly easy to see that they use a simple three-part defense to create a façade of extreme self-confidence. I call this the “GOD defense.”G – Grandiosity: They act as if they are special and entitled to do or say whatever they want. Grandiose motto: “I am special.”
O – Omnipotent: They make all sorts of unrealistic claims about how powerful and knowledgeable they are. Omnipotent motto: “I can do anything, and I know everything worth knowing,”
D – Devaluing: They feel free to attack and devalue anyone who is not clearly above them in their status hierarchy. Devaluing motto: “You are worthless, defective garbage, and are here to serve me.”
Yeah, you could just put "Example: Donald Trump" on all three.

Australia asks China to explain 'extraordinary' military build-up
Australia's defence minister Richard Marles has called on China to explain why it needs to have "such an extraordinary military build-up".
On Sunday morning, Marles asserted that "what we have seen from China is the single biggest increase in military capability and build up in conventional sense, by any country since the end of the Second World War".
It is not just the size of the military build-up that concerns other countries, he told reporters.
"It's the fact that it is happening without strategic reassurance. It's happening without a clear strategic intent on the part of China… what we want to see is strategic transparency and strategic reassurance be provided by China, and an understanding of why it is needed to have such an extraordinary military build-up."

Every government is uncomfortable. News stories about "defence" spending are commonplace.
WWIII has already begun. The only questions now are how many will die and who will be the victors.
I would like to be wrong. If the world can be pulled back from the brink of the existing skirmishes, then what's happening right now won't get the WWIII label, but we sure have a lot of hard-headed megalomaniacs running world-affecting countries these days, don't we? That's never a good sign.

But if I stopped buying from AliExpress, I would have to purchase the exact same thing from Amazon or eBay at 10 times the price, and if I boycott the US companies as well, I would need to buy the exact same thing at 100 times the price from Bunnings!
(Meanwhile AliExpress sellers are reselling the exact same thing that can be purchased in bulk from AliBaba at 1/10th the price)
I don’t think there’s much of a mystery to solve here. Basically every country or territory along China’s maritime borders is forming or deepening ties with the U.S. military, buying weapons systems, and even building new bases. A full-blown war between nuclear powers is pretty unthinkable but just a blockade would seriously harm China’s economy.
Of course, everyone talks about just wanting to protect shipping lanes and their territorial sovereignty and shit like that. Peace through strength. Maybe that ultimately turns out to be how it goes. But wars have broken out over some pretty dumb shit that escalated.
Why is there any mystery here. They said they intend on ending their civil war and have shown no indication whatsoever that such a statement is only rhetorical or posturing. Taiwan has never tried to be independent of China. It still claims sovereignty over all of China.
If the US Confederates had retreated to Cuba and others had intervened on their behalf, while the Confederates still claimed dominion over a part of the USA, you can bet your ass the US would invade Cuba as soon as they had the opportunity. We can all decry the whole thing, but it is their conflict. If anything, we should be evacuating anyone and anything that needs to leave and capitulating without further involvement. Like if your neighbor and their spouse are arguing, stay out of it for the benefit of everyone. This is not some mate getting abused that needs help. This involves two bloody parties where all sides have done monstrous things and that needs to get resolved one way or another. Both can't claim dominion over all. The past cannot be bowdlerized for convenience or exploitation for profit of western criminal capitalist abuse. No one needs to fight or die, but a resolution must be found.
Edit: Wow Lemmy is remarkably stupid to the point of incompetent ineptitude at basic fundamental history. Like wtf am I doing here in a room with this insane nonsense.
Taiwan has never tried to be independent of China. It still claims sovereignty over all of China.
Do you have a source for that?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_A…
You can check the territorial claims of the Republic of China ("Taiwan") under the selector "Show map of Taiwan (dark green) with ROC Mainland Area and historical claims (light green)"
The map is not quite up to date as it still shows the ROC as claiming Taiwan, despite formally granting independance in 2002 (source)
It's complicated.
Unfortunately, the Wikipedia articles I found lack citations, so they probably aren't a good source. They claim that the ROC (Taiwan) claims all of the mainland.
This reddit thread refers to the ROC constitution and interprets it as:
In the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan area and the Mainland area, the following is stated:
"Taiwan Area" refers to Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, Matsu, and any other area under the effective control of the Government."Mainland Area" refers to the territory of the Republic of China outside the Taiwan Area.
"People of the Taiwan Area" refers to the people who have household registrations in the Taiwan Area.
"People of the Mainland Area" refers to the people who have household registrations in the Mainland Area.
The implication is that wherever this law applies, is what the ROC government considers to be "territory of the ROC outside of the Taiwan Area". Currently the application of this law overlaps the entirety of the PRC, minus HK and Macau.
This the fun part. If you look at the ROC constitution, it makes [...] mention to Mongolia and Tibet.
I don't know how much of this applies beyond the KMT.
This is common knowledge available anywhere.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_…
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_…
Those all have sources. There are also lots of reputable YouTubers with relevant academic credentials that have coved this, Asianometry and William C Fox are two that I recall covering the subject. I think Caspian Report did as well at one point in the last few years. This is like ultra basic surface level stuff everyone should know or severely question their sources and echo chambers if they are not made aware of this fundamental information.
Expecting people to wade through 8000 word articles in the hope of finding mention of your claim is why you're being downvoted.
Imagine someone making the claim, 'Jesus hated gay people, it's obvious' and then when probed for a source, responding, 'this is common knowledge available anywhere:
thekingsbible.com/'
Because that's a history question. "Taiwan" is not a country, it's a province of the Republic of China (ROC), which was the government of China before the communist revolution. They fled to Taiwan but their constitution etc still define them as the Republic Of China, with territorial claims over all of China
Here is an article specifically on that exact topic
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_A…
Edit:
The main "Taiwan" wikipedia article also has a map that can be selected under the label "Show map of Taiwan (dark green) with ROC Mainland Area and historical claims (light green)"
Many, many countries have 'historical claims' that mean nothing in current day geopolitics.
Claiming that 'Taiwan is not a country' is enough for me to know that this will not be a fruitful discussion.
Literally the first line of the 'Taiwan' Wikipedia article:
"Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC), is a country in East Asia."
they don't, in any practical sense, and haven't since Chiang died in the 80s, probably even before that.
however, they are threatened with invasion if they ever update their constitution to reflect reality, because that would be taken as "declaring independence".(even though they are completely independent anyway)
Except to actually make that a proper analogy, the confederacy would gave had to take over nearly all of the US, and the union would be in Cuba. In which case, yeah fuck those confederate bitches.
Also at this point it doesn't matter. Taiwan is more or less internationally recognized as an independent country so they can both sit the fuck down.
They still have the old wartime territory definitions in their constitution because updating their constitution would provoke a violent response from China. Nobody, absolutely nobody, takes those claims seriously.
Even without Taiwan. broadly gestures at everything
Russia has proved to be unreliable. USA are proving to be unreliable. Europe is building up its own armies. India is fighting Pakistan. Who knows how big Israel wants to be, they are already attacking neighbours.
No idea what's happening in Africa. I think most of them are still stuck fighting amongst themselves.
Maybe Australia is just asking the question so that they have an excuse to build up as well.
“what we have seen from China is the single biggest increase in military capability and build up in conventional sense, by any country since the end of the Second World War”
WTF? The USA alone outspends most of the world combined in this area but somehow China is the threat? This guy should at least remove the american balls he's gargling before spouting something like that
America overthrew the Australian government last time they did that. The balls remain firmly in place.
For all you folk who aren't big history nerds and didn't know that the US overthrew the government of AUSTRALIA, en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975_A…
It's really interesting
Australian navy keeps fucking around in the South China, deliberately trying to antagonise China because the US told them to. No Western news coverage of this at all.
The US keeps trying to use the Taiwan situation as a wedge issue, keeping dozens of warships stationed in the area, because they desperately want another proxy war. No Western news coverage of this.
China does anything at all in response to all this deliberate antagonisation, even if it's something as minor as, telling an Australian ship to go away, or moving PLA troops around in response to the Americans. Western news media makes a huge amount of noise about how China is doing all these for no reason and in response to nothing, and how they must be stopped with a military intervention.
"fucking around in the South China" = sailing in international waters as defined by the UNCLOS, to which China is a signatory
"US keeps trying to use the Taiwan situation as a wedge issue" = maintaining the status quo in the face of repeated, overt invasion threats
"desperately want a proxy war" = can't allow an oligo-fascist state to seize control of the single-path source of chips that enable modern life
"no western news coverage of this" = I don't look at the news

You're referring to the current CIA...??
😂 🤣
The title stating the obvious concerning the felon not being informed is weird, but the article is a worthwhile read:
Some of the trucks were parked in Siberia, thousands of miles away from Ukraine, according to the report.About 40 Russian military planes, including strategic bombers, were reportedly struck in the attack.
I cannot begin to imagine what a blow this is to Russia's crumbling air force. And the ingenuity of the attack (some of whose details are omitted in this article - though you may have read more about it in others) is phenomenal.
And don't forget this little tidbit - also a developing story:
Ukraine’s unprecedented drone attack on Russia comes as seven people were killed and 69 more injured after bridges collapsed in separate incidents across Russia.
I imagine the pending defenestrations of some Russian officials might be kept secret.

Speaking at an anti-vaccine rally in 2022, Malone spread dangerous falsehoods about mRNA COVID-19 vaccines: "These genetic vaccines can damage your children. They may damage their brains, their heart, their immune system and their ability to have children in the future. Many of these damages cannot be repaired."Malone aligned with the anti-vaccine crowd during the pandemic and has become a mainstay in conspiratorial circles and an ally to Kennedy. He has claimed that vaccines cause a "form of AIDS," amid other nonsense. He has also meddled with responses to the measles outbreak that erupted in West Texas in January. In April, Malone was the first to publicize news that a second child had died from the highly infectious and serious infection, but he did so to falsely claim that measles wasn't the cause and spread other dangerous misinformation.
In a newsletter post earlier this week, Malone proclaimed: "Some people still believe that the term anti-vaxxer is a pejorative. I do not—I view it as high praise."
The phrase "the lunatics have taken over the asylum" never seemed more apt. I know, we've lived in an asylum for awhile. We had a lunatic fringe, but even if we had to interact with them at least sane adults were in charge. Those halcyon days are over.
I just think COVID and social media have allowed people's historical "well-rounded" selves - the crazy bits getting sanded off by friction with sane people, which they've steadily now removed from their lives - to slowly disfigure them until so many of the country have become grotesqueries. Superficially well-rounded people but when you turn them a bit, you see bizarre outgrowths of insane propaganda-fed mutation. And all of those people coalesced this election around Trump.
My neighbor is a nice, friendly person, but was talking about moving out of state during COVID because she didn't want her daughter to have to get the vaccine. I'm sure she is cheering this move. And goddamn, it's depressing.

TBH all the claims you commonly hear about Macs are either outright false or outdated:
- Macs don't get malware? Yes they do.
- Macs are more private? More than Windows maybe, but that's like saying you should go to the restaurant that gives you explosive diarrhea instead of the one that gives you botulism. The one that serves normal non-infected food is not an option I guess. Apple being "not as bad" as the worst offender is not praiseworthy and still means they're in no way private.
- Macs "just work?" Unless Apple decides it shouldn't. They can prevent you from installing paid apps you already own because the latest version arbitrarily doesn't support your older device anymore. Want to install an older version? Fuck you, stop being poor and buy a new Mac. Oh you installed a genuine Apple replacement part with the wrong serial number? Fuck you, your device is banned.
- Macs have better support than Windows computers? Yeah maybe when the Apple logo was still rainbow coloured and they had CRTs built in. Now a battery replacement costs nearly as much as a new device and they go out of their way to make sure you can't do it yourself.
- Macs don't come with bloatware? Then what do you call that bullshit AI they're pushing to compete with Copilot? What do you call Safari? What do you call Photo Booth? Has anyone ever opened Photo Booth once the novelty of their first time using a Mac wears off?
- Macs are intuitive? Look, maybe I'm just a tech illiterate idiot, but I had more problems figuring out how to drag and drop on my friend's Macbook than I had tinkering with the Linux kernel and systemd.
- Macs are good for developers? Yeah they're so good they've recently had to cave and introduce a WSL-like system so you can run Linux containers.
- ~~Macs are innovative? Yeah they're so innovative they don't even support snapping windows to half or a quarter of the screen when Linux desktop environments and even Windows have had it for ages. Gotta either leave all the windows floating, or full screen them all and swipe between them, or manually resize the windows to the layout you want.~~ (They have this now.)
- Macs are convenient? Yeah I just love carrying ~~HDMI~~ (some newer Macbooks have HDMI again) and USB A to C adapters forever because they couldn't be bothered to install those ports on a laptop sized device that can clearly fit them. Also fuck Apple for giving other laptop companies the idea that everyone wants only USB-C on their devices. No, we want ports we can use today, not in 10 years when all the peripherals switch to USB-C and all the computers bought today will already be obsolete regardless of what ports they have. I'll buy a computer with only USB-C when everything else I own actually uses USB-C.
- Macs are more secure? How do you know? Do you control the disk encryption keys? No, Apple does. Can you encrypt the drive yourself with a key you control like you can on Linux? No, fuck you for even thinking about that.
- Macs are elegant and their design is well thought out? Because gluing the battery to the chassis with double sided tape is the elegant way to do it and not redneck engineering. And with glue so strong that you risk puncturing the battery and burning your house down if you try to remove it yourself. Another great attention to detail is soldering the SSD to the motherboard, thoughtfully ensuring you lose data when the motherboard fails. But hey, I'm sure the Genius bar will be happy to recover your data for you since they made sure you can't do it yourself, and for only $999.99! Your wedding photos and your PHD thesis are each worth more than that right? So it's a bargain!
Linux beats Mac in every one of those categories (other than the hardware ones) and you can install Linux on every device. Even ancient ones, and you get to decide if it's too old to be usable or not, not the company who's incentivized to obsolete devices as fast as possible so you're forced to buy a new one. How many years before a brand new Mac stops getting OS updates?
Just to prevent you from falling to your own outdated claim, here's a correction or two:
Window snapping and arranging windows in the corners is a thing now (and with hotkeys too, a million years late- I had to look this up since I've been using Rectangle for a long time)
Some mac laptops have HDMI ports. If you get a mac without an HDMI port, it's in apple's "paperweight class" of machines and shouldn't be bought. Macbook Airs are just expensive mac flavored chromebooks.
The repairability sucks, but I still use my 2014 macbook pro daily because it still works really well (though those old intel chips make the fans go wild even after repasting everything and cleaning the fans). I was able to buy a cheapo replacement battery off ebay and it's working great after a fairly tedious process of using IPA and dental floss to release the old battery. It is no longer supported by apple through software, though I use OpenCore legacy patcher to update to the newest system so I don't have to worry about an old system without security updates connecting to the internet. I've tried installing various Linux distros on it and none of them are very happy with the process. Most of the time it's the stupid broadcom wifi chip and other times only a single speaker works and I'm too much of a dunce to troubleshoot things like that. Tails OS becomes nearly useless on an old macbook because of the broadcom issue. But also, I'm not about to go buy a thinkpad just so linux will work properly- I don't need more devices in my house, I'll just use what I already have.
Sure you can… until you run out of memory and it throttles because there is no fan. Then it uses swap memory until it chews away at the 256Gb drive. It’s possible to run these things just long enough to say “look, I told you so”, but I would never try using it professionally, especially if you’re running Adobe bloatware. Power isn’t the issue.
I’d almost always recommend the base Mac mini instead of a MacBook Air specifically because you can actually upgrade the internal storage after you buy it and it has fans. I still wouldn’t load up on a bunch of huge programs at the same time because memory will eventually be the bottleneck like it is with the MBA, but it’s far more reasonable to use for work for about the same price. The value proposition for the MacBook Air just isn’t that great generally speaking as well as when compared to other options Apple has.

Don't give Trump what he wants
For the protests Trump is hoping for one of two outcomes:
- The protests escalate and he seizes power just like Hitler did: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
- People roll over, stay silent and comply with the administration out of fear.
If fact I wonder if #1 would be more ideal for Trump because it would be a unifying cause for Republicans who are currently divided and soon face economic uncertainty. Remember that Trump's polling was worst in April during times of greatest economic uncertainty. However let's not give him either of those. Let's humiliate Trump by making all the people he brought in, in hopes of escalating useless and bored. Imagine the pictures of them standing around with nothing to do. It will foil the well used dictator playbook for seizing power.
The reality is a vast, vast majority of the protests are going to be peaceful no matter what. The problem is that the media even the mainstream media will focus on any violence there is so we need we really need to be as perfect as we can so let's do everything we can to ensure that every single protest remains as peaceful as possible and also take charge of the narrative too.
What we need to do is protest peacefully and lawfully, be a little more spread out, stay away from situations that are violent. I'd also recommend staying away from police and military. Use the time to expose Trump's corruption and educate people and bring new people to the movement and maybe even help register people to vote. By building a broad peaceful coalition we can reach even those who are stuck in echo chambers where they will only see what little violence there is and not notice the peaceful protests. The only way to break through is to protest peacefully in your city so they can see that protests are peaceful or get previously neutral people involved in protesting who will talk to their friends who will in-turn talk to their friends and so on eventually reaching those in echo chambers.
I'd recommend bringing American flags, say we love our country, we believe ALL Americans have equal rights and that we support the constitution and upholding American tradition like separation of power, that no one is above the law and that there are no kings in America. The more people who do that the more chances the media will be forced to show this which disrupts the false narrative that we're not patriotic, in fact I feel we're way more patriotic than the people who still worship traitors like the confederates, those who want to destroy our country and those who feel that only Americans who have the right skin color, gender and socioeconomic status deserve rights.
Online and in person we must strongly push back against those who call for violence, balkanization or civil war. These things will be devastating to everyone. I can tell you that I'm a blue dot in a red state, I have lots of friends and family members who are as well. Nearly all of us are too poor and too deeply rooted in our communities to move. This could literally be deadly for us and millions of innocent people who don't support what's going on now and even if not deadly lots of us could one day be subject to a oppressive regime in a spin-off of part of America, that would be horrible. If we make it to the midterms we can win enough elections and make our country better in all 50 states peacefully and legally.
Remember: broad peaceful coalition, bring more and more people over, eventually even some Trump supporters will see the light and we'll resolve this peacefully. I know we can do it!

The YouTube link in the PDF wasn't stripped of tracking so use this link to watch their de-escalation training: youtu.be/_Pgmn9QRr48
I also saw an interesting idea of having monitors in high visibility vests and using whistles whenever they see even initial signs of violence, in the original suggestion they advised sitting but I read some persuasive comments that mentioned sitting down could be dangerous, instead I think leaving is the best approach.

It's not for the right reason...
Beta was better than VHS, but Beta didn't have porn, so everyone got VCRs.
Meta is so big they could get sued for letting users openly make porn like this, but they don't want everyone using the ones who can make porn. Because that's the biggest threat to their advantage in the market.
If Meta thought they could get away with it, they'd dive dick first into porn.

Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?
You think humans invented clothing because of shame?
That's completely backwards, we invented clothing for protection, and not seeing everything all the time led to shame when someone could see us.
Like, I'm pretty sure hermit crabs feel something similar to shame when they don't have a shell, they need something to drive them to not only protect themselves, but to ensure they can reproduce and raise their young. That's why humans instinctually get weird about exposed genitals and boobs, those are the most important parts of a human from an evolutionary perspective.
I get what you're trying to say, it's just you're going about it completely backwards
That is my culture. Why do you have so little respect for my culture as to think I should follow your values?
I have seen variations of this debate in letters from around 100. I'm sure it goes back much farther.

European ISPs Complain About 'Disproportionate' Pirate Site Blocking
Internet providers are increasingly tasked in the role of anti-piracy enforcers and instructed to block pirate websites and services. In Europe, court-ordered blockades are now commonplace, but ISPs are cautious when it comes to further expansion. In a recent submission to the EU Commission, EuroISPA, which represents over 3,300 ISPs, complains about "disproportionate" blocking measures, as recently seen in Italy, Spain and elsewhere.

“Pick a Lie, Any Lie”: Israel’s Five Versions of the Witkoff Massacre
The Israeli army has offered five conflicting stories to deny its role in the killing of 31 starving civilians and the injury of over 200 others at the US-Israeli aid distribution point in Rafah. The massacre, known as the Witkoff Massacre, has triggered global outrage.
- Narrative 1: “Nothing happened.”
Initially, Israel claimed that no incident occurred near the aid center. This was quickly disproven by eyewitness videos and images showing bodies scattered near aid trucks.
- Narrative 2: “Something happened—but not near the aid center.”
After mounting pressure, the army admitted there had been an incident. However, it claimed the event happened far from the aid site and had no connection to Israeli forces. The army then released a video showing normal aid distribution in a different area.
- Narrative 3: “Soldiers fired in the air only.”
The third claim was that Israeli soldiers fired warning shots into the air, not at people. This contradicted medical reports and survivor testimonies that confirmed victims had direct gunshot wounds to the head, chest, and abdomen.
- Narrative 4: “No one was hurt.”
In its fourth version, the army insisted that no casualties resulted from the incident. But the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) later confirmed that 21 dead bodies had arrived at its field hospital in Rafah.
- Narrative 5: “Hamas militants were responsible.”
Finally, Israel published a drone video claiming Hamas fighters shot civilians. However, the footage was filmed in Khan Younis—not Rafah—and showed looting by gangs backed by Israel. The clip lacked any evidence of a gunfight.
Rami Abdu, director of Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, called the video “a scandal.” He said, “The footage showed gangs stealing aid, not Hamas shooting civilians. Israel is trying to hide its crime with lies.”
Internet Blackout in Gaza as Israel Targets Last Fiber Line
Gaza (Quds News Network)- The Gaza Strip has plunged into a complete internet and communication blackout after Israeli attacks severed the last remaining fiber-optic line, the Palestinian Telecommunications Regulatory Authority announced on Thursday.
The authority confirmed that fixed-line internet and telecommunication services are now entirely cut off across Gaza, including the central and southern regions, which have now joined the digital silence already imposed on Gaza City and the north for the past two days.
“This is the result of systematic attacks on Gaza’s already fragile telecom infrastructure,” the authority said in a statement. Technicians have tried multiple times to repair and reroute damaged lines, but Israeli restrictions have blocked all efforts.
