PS: THIS IS NOT TRUE

I am sorry, but the image is from Iran's petrochemical plant fire a few years ago, there are no report of ID attacks against Abadan right now.

Abadan oil refinery, one of the largest refineries in Iran was attacked by Israeli forces today.

This is not a military target. It's a clear indication that Netanyahu is trying to cripple Iran's economy and bot just it's nuclear plants.

New legislation in Florida introduces a financial model that would enable local governments around the country to invest virtually limitless sums in the Israeli war effort, despite the mounting financial risk of doing so.

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.

Gaza’s Hamas-run police force said Thursday that it killed 12 members of the Israeli-backed Abu Shabab militia in Gaza, which said its fighters had killed five Hamas operatives but made no mention of its own casualties.

According to Hamas, the Abu Shabab gunmen were killed early Wednesday by the Gaza police’s Sahm unit, which Hamas says was established to combat looting. The unit released video footage showing several dead men lying in the street, saying they were Abu Shabab fighters who had been detained and killed for collaborating with Israel. It was not possible to verify the images or the claims around them.

Abu Shabab has been operating in an Israeli-controlled area of southern Gaza’s Rafah. Israel confirmed last week that it was arming the militia to bolster opposition to Hamas.

Where are the #FreeTheHostages people now?

Don't they have empathy for the kidnapped volunteers of #FreedomFlotilla?

Does anyone care about their safety and well being?

Israel is demanding that she signs an illegal deportation order, Even though they were kidnapped on international waters and being held hostage inside Israel.

This is outrageous and sadly not many politicians seem to care protesting it and calling for Israel to be held accountable

The US is lobbying foreign governments not to attend a UN conference next week sponsored by France and Saudi Arabia on a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, according to a US diplomatic cable reported by Reuters.

The cable, sent to countries on Tuesday, warns them against taking "anti-Israel actions" and says attending the conference would be viewed by Washington as acting against US foreign policy interests.

France, a permanent member of the UN Security Council, is a US ally in Nato. Saudi Arabia is one of the US’s closest Middle East partners.

Israel deports Greta Thunberg after seizing Madleen, the ship she was on | AP News (2025-06-11)

Also a video on Youtube --> https://www.youtube.com/live/Hvios9GF4CY

>> Speaking upon arrival in Paris en route to her home country of Sweden, Thunberg called for the release of the other activists who were detained aboard the Madleen...

>> ...The activists were held separately and some had trouble accessing lawyers, she added.

>> Asked why she agreed to deportation, she said, “Why would I want to stay in an Israeli prison more than necessary?”

>> Thunberg called on supporters to ask their governments “to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but most importantly an end to the occupation and an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis.”..

Since the news broke, Israel’s propaganda machine has gone into overdrive, dismissing the Madleen as a “selfie yacht”, a line echoed by western media outlets. “There are ways to deliver aid to the Gaza Strip – they do not involve Instagram selfies,” declared a shameless Israeli Foreign Ministry. Israel knows all about those ways, because it has systematically blocked them.

In the past 20 months, Israel has ratcheted up the blockade. Even former prime minister Olmert, for decades a member of Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party, denounced his state for committing grave war crimes as a matter of official policy. On 10 October 2023, for example, Israeli general Ghassan Alian – who headed the Israeli military department supposedly charged with humanitarian aid – declared that the “citizens of Gaza” had collective guilt, and that “human beasts are dealt with accordingly. Israel has imposed a total blockade on Gaza. No electricity, no water, just damage. You wanted hell – you will get hell.” This was just one of multiple statements of criminal and genocidal intent that left no doubt about the crime to come.

According to ProPublica in 2024, it was revealed that the two foremost US authorities on humanitarian assistance concluded that Israel had deliberately blocked deliveries of food and medicine into Gaza. Under US legislation, this should have immediately triggered the suspension of weapons shipments – but the Biden administration did not accept the findings. You may not be aware of either of these reports, because they received precious little coverage from a western media that has deceived its audiences about Israel’s genocidal intent and behaviour.

The Madleen did not make it to Gaza’s shores. Yet its crew exposed an obscenity that has repulsed western citizens, who will one day force their governments to cease their complicity – which is why, in the end, Israel will lose.
