@DrALJONES pesky facts

"The pope has shown the world how to stand up to Trump""Clearly, Leo rejects appeasement as an antidote to coercion & hate":Jesus "does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war... 'Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: Your hands are full of blood.’”Unlike sychophantic leaders who stroked Trump’s ego, Leo resisted.Like every bully, Trump takes keen pleasure in satisfying his narcissistic hunger for dominance.https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/4/16/the-pope-has-shown-the-world-how-to-stand-up-to-trump#USPol #IranWar #EUPol #Pope .

Report: Palestine Action's retrial is rigged against them.Reportedly:the jury must not know the trial is for terrorism charges & that long prison terms are possible;UK media are banned from reporting the above;the 6 must not explain their motives for damaging Israeli weapons factories.Arguably, Palestine Action is being targeted bcz of its effectiveness & in providing a model for activism.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkzxhQU6QIM#UKPol #EUPol #USPol #Israel #news #PalestineAction .

Interview: "Imposing a blockade to remove a blockade sounds very counterintuitive precisely because it is.""When the US does something, it's by definition legitimate. And when its adversaries do something, it's by definition illegitimate.""In addition to the question of hypocrisy... there's also the question of what this precisely is supposed to achieve."~Mouin Rabbanihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ3gSY1yhm0 #USPol #EUPol #IranWar #Hormuz #Blockade #news .

The brainwashing of Israeli Jews is from birth & instills an existential dread of "the Arab".It's chilling to hear about it from highly intelligent and compassionate Israeli Jews who only came to their senses when they went overseas, often as scholars, and happened to get to know some:Miko Peled, former IDF soldier & son of Israeli general: "It starts in kindergarten.. It's everywhere... 75 yrs of racist indoctrination & mass militarisation".https://chrishedges.substack.com/p/the-chris-hedges-report-with-miko#EUPol #Israel #USPol .

@peterbrown There were several original charges. The first trial was for burglary. This one's for criminal damage. The dodgy bit is keeping the terrorism aspect secret. So the jury won't know the defendants can be sentenced as "terrorists" and the UK press is banned from publishing that fact.
