From AJ:
One ‍person is dead after an ICE officer on a large-scale ⁠immigration operation ​in Minneapolis shot and killed a woman who allegedly “weaponized” ⁠her vehicle.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot the woman in her vehicle on Wednesday in a residential neighbourhood in Minneapolis, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

…

Mayor Jacob Frey alleged the officer “recklessly” shot her, adding immigration agents are “causing chaos in our city”.

“They’re ripping families apart. They’re sowing chaos on our streets and in this case quite literally killing people,” Frey said at a news conference.

“They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defence. Having seen the video myself, I wanna tell everybody directly, that is bulls**t,” the mayor said.

The shooting marks a dramatic escalation of the latest in a series of immigration enforcement operations in major American cities under the Trump administration.

Except ICE is harassing fucking everybody, dumbass. They're breaking into people's homes, they're strangling random people in the street. Even the actual cops are getting fed up with the fake cops' bullshit, see: >>493920

If all you're going to do is repeatedly lie about what's going on or the character of the strikes and be wrong again and again without bothering to read or learn anything, then why are you even here?

There's a world of information, video evidence, documentation, and history in this thread, and all you do is cover your eyes and ears and go "la la la trust everything the government says ignore your lying eyes."

Anon, are you aware that your MP4s have encoding problems? I thought it might just be my browser this whole time, but when I play them back in VLC the video freezes up at the same spots (while the audio continues fine). My guess it maybe you've been trying to cut something from an MP4 without re-encoding it? This sometimes causes problems like this.

Maybe understand that the left lost the electoral and popular vote this election for a reason (hint: polls showed the #1 top issue for voters was immigration), and instead of throwing a tantrum and choosing to die on a hill of illegal immigrants who hate the country and Somalian fraud, try figuring out how to win the people back. I don't know, ever think of that?

Maduro activates Bolivarian National Militia in response to US “threats”, vowing to defend the country’s sovereignty and independence.
President Nicolás Maduro announced on Monday, August 18, that he is activating “over 4.5 million militia members across the entire national territory” of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, in response to the US deployment of three Navy guided-missile destroyers and 4,000 military personnel to the Caribbean. The White House has described the deployment as an anti-drug trafficking operation in the region, while some analysts have called it a new threat against Venezuela – the country with the largest oil reserves in the world.

The US military deployment comes after Washington raised its bounty on the Venezuelan president from USD 25 million to USD 50 million, alleging links to drug cartels.

The “extravagant, bizarre, and outlandish threats” of the United States have been firmly rejected by the Venezuelan government.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Yván Gil described the accusations as a sign of desperation, revealing Washington’s “lack of credibility and the failure of its policies in the region”. He also pointed out that Venezuela has made major gains against drug trafficking after expelling the United States’ Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) – who many Venezuelans call “the planet’s chief drug traffickers” – from the country in 2005.

No US agency or international body has produced concrete evidence of drug production and distribution being concentrated in Venezuela or linked to Maduro. In fact, available global drug data makes almost no mention of the Caribbean nation or the alleged “Cartel of Suns” at all. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the epicenter of activity is in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, with the US identified as the main destination for distribution, recording the highest level of drug consumption in the world.

UNODC data reports that only 5% of Colombian drugs transit through Venezuela, and that the country is free of coca leaf cultivation, and marijuana and cocaine processing. The Trump administration, on the other hand, has maintained its position that the Venezuelan government is a “narco-terror cartel”.

One survivor reported, two killed in US boat strike in the eastern Pacific
The latest bombing brings the total death toll from US boat strikes to 125 since September, raising human rights concerns.

The administration of President Donald Trump has announced the United States’ latest boat strike in international waters, which killed two people in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

Friday’s attack brings the total number of bombings to at least 36 since Trump began his campaign on September 2. An estimated 125 people have been killed in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific, including the two latest casualties.

US Southern Command, the military unit that oversees operations in Central America, South America and the Caribbean Sea, reported that one survivor had yet to be recovered. It added that the US Coast Guard had been notified to activate its search-and-rescue operations.

“On Jan. 23, at the direction of [Secretary of Defense] Pete Hegseth, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations,” the command wrote in a social media post.

“Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations.”

The deadly strike is the first such attack to take place in 2026: The last one took place on December 31.

It's coming in days. Weeks tops. Since the end of the 12 day long Imposed War, the US & Israel have been recuperating, eagerly scheming another attack on Iran since the last one backfired. The EU has played along with this scheme, collaborating with the US and Israel to restore sanctions against Iran, a continued act of aggressive economic warfare.

U.S. Secretary of "Defense" Pete Hegseth has recently called an "unprecedented" number of high ranking U.S. military officials to meet in Virginia for an undisclosed purpose, and in the same week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump.

This is a thread for discussing this war as soon as it kicks off, and the lead-up to it.

IDF Completes Preparations for Potential U.S. Strike on Iran According to Israeli Media Reports
Multiple Israeli media outlets, including Channels 12 and 13 and The Times of Israel, report that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have completed preparations for a possible American strike on Iran, with the home front now ready. The United States is expected to finalize deployment of its military forces in the Middle East region within the coming days, after which an attack could be launched. IDF Chief of the General Staff Eyal Zamir stated that the military is ready to act against any threats, though no official confirmation has come from the U.S. or Iran.

Updates and current status since the start of the last thread:
(largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 70,000. Excess deaths have been estimated by The Lancet to plausibly be upwards of 186,000.

Italian workers' unions launched a massive general strike in October over the shipping of weapons through Italian ports which are being used in Israel's genocide, and launched another strike in November.

In early January 2025, Israel agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner exchange. Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire. In October 2025, another ceasefire and prisoner exchange was agreed upon in Gaza, and Israel has proceeded to kill over 300 Palestinians in Gaza since agreeing. Israel has also refused to allow the agreed-upon amount of aid into Gaza.

Israel attacked Iran utilizing a large number of assets embedded in Iran, killing multiple scientists and high ranking Iranian military officials, as well as targeting schools, hospitals, oil assets, and a TV station. Around one thousand Iranians were killed in Israel's strikes on civilian targets like residential buildings. Iran retaliated with a series of waves of missile and drone attacks which hit multiple Israeli military targets including IDF HQ, Mossad HQ, as well as an Israeli oil field. After an Iranian strike on Unit 8200, the number of online Zionist apologists conspicuously reduced for a while. The Israeli government, embarrassed by the damage to Tel Aviv, heavily censored footage and reporting of Iranian strikes on Israel, resulting in the Israeli police arresting journalists and citizens for filming sites of impact, while rich Israelis fled by boat due to the closure of Ben-Gurion airport. Iran began a crackdown on Israeli terror cells, finding and closing multiple Mossad-linked covert drone factories, as well as reportedly arresting groups of Afghan nationals involved in sabotage, and multiple individuals reportedly linked to German & Indian spy agencies.

The US launched airstrikes against multiple Iranian nuclear energy sites, followed by Iran retaliating with a strike on a US airbase in Qatar. A ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been in place since shortly after this, with expectations being that Israel intends to recouperate and try again with more direct US invoPost too long.

HRF Files Urgent Request for Prosecution in Greece Against Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz

The Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) has filed a report with the Prosecutor of the Supreme Court of Greece concerning the visit of Israel Katz to Greece for official meetings with Greek political and defense authorities.

The report was filed today jointly with Greek lawyers, members of Athens Lawyers’ Alternative Intervention and members of the Board of Directors of the Athens Bar Association: Athanasios Kampagiannis, Konstantinos Papadakis, and Dimitrios Sarafianos.

Presence in Greece and Urgency of the Filing

The report informs Greek authorities that Israel Katz is present in Greece until 22 January 2026 for official meetings related to regional security coordination and military relations between Greece and Israel.

Given the limited duration of the visit, the report explicitly requests urgent examination and immediate legal action, stressing that Greece’s jurisdiction and legal obligations are directly triggered by Katz’s physical presence on Greek territory.

Information on the Suspect

According to the report, Israel Katz is a senior member of the Likud Party and has held multiple senior executive positions within the Israeli government.

Lebanese journalist Hassan Illaik summoned to court for criticizing Lebanon's President, Joseph Aoun
——
Lebanon's Prosecutor of the Court of Cassation has summoned journalist Hassan Illaik to appear before the Criminal Investigation Department following a video in which he criticized the President of the Republic, Joseph Aoun.

In the video, journalist Illaik criticized Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, saying that in a functioning state he would be under investigation and would not have been elected. Illaik specifically condemned Aoun for ordering the Lebanese army to deploy in south Lebanon on the day of a ceasefire, arguing that the deployment did not prevent Israeli forces from advancing in areas they could not take during the war.

Illaik accuses the prosecutor, Judge Jamal Hajjar, of acting under political pressure and claims the move is an attempt to curry favor with the presidency. He rejects the summons as intimidation, says he is not afraid of arrest or imprisonment, and vows to continue speaking out.

"I am ready to die defending my people and my cause. Do you really think you will frighten me by threatening detention? I welcome prison. I promise you that I will not be silent—neither about others, nor about you," he wrote on X.

New Press Statement - Hamas:
—
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) affirms its commitment to and adherence to the ceasefire agreement, at a time when the occupation continues to violate its terms around the clock, in an attempt to undermine it and obstruct the work of the National Committee—contrary to the announced arrangements and U.S. guarantees.

As we enter the fifth month since the ceasefire began, nearly 484 Palestinians have been killed by occupation fire and 1,297 others wounded, amid the absence of any real pressure to halt these ongoing crimes.

Some participants at the Davos Forum would have been better served focusing on the occupation’s continued crimes in the Gaza Strip and how they undermine international efforts to cement the ceasefire, open the crossings, withdraw occupation forces, and launch reconstruction—rather than directing threats at the Palestinian side that is abiding by what was agreed.

We call on the Board of Peace to assume its responsibility to stop the occupation’s violations and compel it to meet its obligations under the agreement—foremost allowing the entry of aid and shelter supplies and initiating relief and reconstruction—to protect our people from the consequences of the humanitarian catastrophe created by the occupation, especially as Gaza faces waves of rain and severe cold.

Report uncovers Jordanian authorities using Israeli software to monitor civil society activists
——
Jordanian authorities have used Israeli-made digital forensics software to track and extract data from the phones of civil society activists, according to a new report by cybersecurity researchers at Citizen Lab. The report says tools produced by Tel Aviv-based company Cellebrite were used to access data on seized phones without consent.

Citizen Lab said forensic analysis of three iPhones and one Android device belonging to detained or interrogated activists uncovered indicators of compromise linked with high confidence to Cellebrite products. Court records reviewed by the researchers also indicate the software was used in criminal cases against activists in ways that may violate international human rights treaties ratified by Jordan. Many of those detained were questioned over expressions of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.

The report adds to growing scrutiny of Jordan’s General Intelligence Department amid rising detentions and public criticism following a death in custody last year.

Burnham by-election prospect rattles Labour
The crisis erupted after it became known that Andrew Gwynne, MP for Gorton and Denton in Manchester, was preparing to resign, triggering a by-election. Mr Gwynne has been suspended from Labour for a year after offensive WhatsApp messages emerged. It is understood he has reached agreement with Commons authorities to retire on grounds of ill health. Downing Street will likely mobilise to block any candidacy by Mr Burnham, who has made little secret of his ambitions and has kept up a running commentary on the government’s shortcomings in recent months.

PCV demands answers from the government over the presence of the CIA chief in Venezuela
The Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) demanded that the government leadership provide clear and transparent explanations regarding the presence in the country of the Director of the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), John Ratcliffe, whom it described as “a nefarious figure for the peoples of the world,” and whose visit — the Party denounced — has not been officially communicated to the Venezuelan people. This was stated by Oscar Figuera, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the PCV, when presenting the conclusions of the 19th Plenum of the Central Committee, which met last Saturday, 17 January, to assess the country’s economic, political, and social situation — a situation marked, he said, by the recent U.S. military aggression and the establishment of direct tutelage over the Venezuelan state. “The presence of the highest representative of the CIA in Venezuela is evidence of the changes taking place to guarantee the interests of big capital and U.S. imperialism,” Figuera stated. He added that Ratcliffe is an official who, according to information reported in the media, “is closely linked to the military operation of 3 January, to the aggression against our country, and to the killing of a significant number of Venezuelan and Cuban military personnel.”

What you should know about the Syrian government-SDF truce agreement
A central pillar of the ceasefire deal revolves around the integration of the Syrian Democratic Forces into Syrian state institutions. Under the truce deal, SDF fighters and security personnel are to be individually vetted before being integrated into Syria’s defence and interior ministries. Civilian institutions that were previously administered by branches of the SDF are also stipulated to be absorbed into state structures, per the agreement. Al-Sharaa said that the current ceasefire plan remains in line with the 10 March agreement, which called for the integration of all civil and military institutions to be under the control of Damascus.

ISIL fighters flee jail as Syrian army clashes with Kurdish-led SDF
The Syrian Operations Authority also told SANA that control of the al-Aqtan prison and security facilities in the city northeast of Raqqa would be assumed by the Ministry of Interior following the operation, and claimed that the SDF had deliberately released ISIL members. The army did not say how many fighters had been released from the prison. The SDF said in a statement that it had lost control of the prison after an attack by the army, a claim that the military has denied.

Judge refuses to block new DHS policy limiting Congress members’ access to ICE facilities
Cobb said she wasn’t ruling on whether the new policy passes legal muster. Rather, she said, plaintiffs’ attorneys representing several Democratic members of Congress used the wrong “procedural vehicle” to challenge it. The judge also concluded that the Jan. 8 policy is a new agency action that isn’t subject to her prior order in the plaintiffs’ favor.

DOJ says won’t investigate ICE agent’s fatal shooting of Renee Good
Speaking to Fox News on Sunday night, Blanche said the civil rights unit of the Justice Department would not bow to pressure to investigate the shooting death of Minneapolis resident and mother Good, 37, earlier this month. “We don’t just go out and investigate every time an officer is forced to defend himself against somebody,” said Blanche. “We investigate when it’s appropriate to investigate.” “So, no, we are not investigating. And if there comes a time when we need to, we will, but it’s not now,” Blanche added.

CP of Greece, Mass event at the Athens University of Economics and Business: Solidarity is our weapon–The people of Venezuela will win!
Following the mobilizations that unfolded from the very first moment of the imperialist intervention in Venezuela, members and friends of the Communist Youth of Greece (KNE) from universities in Athens gathered on Thursday, 15 January, at the Athens University of Economics and Business for an event in solidarity with the people of Venezuela and, more broadly, with the struggles of the peoples worlwide. At the opening of the event, KNE members formed the slogan “Solidarity with the people of Venezuela” using pickets inside the packed amphitheatre where the event was held, while chanting slogans in solidarity with the struggles of the peoples. The event was attended by Themis Gionis, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE).

Two killed, dozens wounded in large Russian drone attacks across Ukraine
More than 200,000 people in the Russian-occupied part of Zaporizhia are without power after a Ukrainian strike.

Two people have been killed and dozens injured in overnight Russian drone attacks across Ukraine, where strikes on energy infrastructure have caused power outages in freezing temperatures, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

In a social media post on Sunday, Zelenskyy said the Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhia, Khmelnytskyi and Odesa regions were targeted in an attack that included more than 200 drones.

…

The Russian government has made several demands over the past months, including territorial concessions and assurances that Ukraine won’t seek NATO membership.

Ukraine is also facing an acute energy crisis due to continuous Russian bombardment this winter.

Ecuador to impose 30% tariff on Colombian goods from February
Colombian Energy Minister Edwin Palma blasted the tariffs as "economic aggression" in a social media post, saying he had ordered the dismantling of a recent initiative to allow private firms to take part in energy sales between both countries to limit potential scarcity. "Colombia has acted with facts, cooperation, and solidarity," he said, noting Colombia provides 8% to 10% of Ecuador's power consumption. "That is why dialogue between nations is essential, not unilateral measures that only harm our peoples," he added.

Venezuelan Banks Receive 300M from US-Administered Crude Sales, Gov’t Officials Defend Oil Reform
According to Ecoanalítica, Banesco, BBVA Provincial, Banco Mercantil, and Banco Nacional de Crédito offered a combined $150 million to customers on Tuesday via foreign exchange auctions, with the rest of the funds expected to be made available by the end of the week. Unofficial reports suggested that private sector importers in the food and healthcare sectors would be given priority. Analyst Alejandro Grisanti stated that the dollars were purchased slightly below 400 bolívars (BsD) per USD. Unlike in prior exchange tables, the banks were not obliged to use the official exchange rate set by the Central Bank, which stands currently at 347 BsD per USD.

House Republicans vote to lift 20-year ban on mining near pristine Boundary Waters Canoe Area
Congressional Republicans moved closer Wednesday to lifting a 20-year ban on mining near Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, pushing a resolution to end the moratorium through the House despite environmentalists’ warnings that it could devastate a premier destination for campers, kayakers and canoeists. The resolution now goes to the Senate, and approval there would send it to President Donald Trump for his signature.

Communist Party of the Philippines: Corruption, injustice, abuses drive Filipino youth to revolution
Over the past week or two, the US-Marcos regime has mounted a frenzied media and social media campaign to intimidate and threaten the Filipino youth, who, more and more are growing disenchanted amid deep and widespread social ills, and are being drawn to question the rotten ruling system and seek radical and revolutionary ways to end corruption, injustice and abuses by those in power. This campaign to intimidate and threaten the Filipino youth is part of Marcos’ arsenal of fascist tactics to maintain his grip on power and preserve the ruling system, by suppressing the youth’s and people’s aspirations for change. This blatant assault against the youth is spearheaded by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), the NTF-Elcac, and their mercenary hacks behind the Marcos government’s propaganda machinery. They have mobilized funds to activate and coordinate their social media troll army to drown out posts critical of the Marcos government in a deluge of spam comments, and throw their weight around to push their narrative in the press and public discourse. The Marcos psyops campaign heightened after a student researcher from the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, 22-year old Jerlyn Rose Doydora, died on January 1 in Abra de Ilog, Mindoro Occidental, amid relentless aerial bombing and strafing by the AFP, following an armed encounter. Another youth, 24-year old Chantal Anicoche, was taken into custody by the fascist soldiers, and illegally detained for a week, before being surfaced amid public outcry. Three Mangyan children were reportedly killed in the aerial bombing which was carried out in the proximity of mountain communities.

What's bad is that homosexuality is treated like a mental illness.

Just because something is a sin according to your creed doesn't make it a mental illness.

Equating mental illness to sin is patronizing and diminishes the personal horror that loss of autonomous will does to you.

Mental illness is something that reduces cognitive control.
Sin requires stone-cold sober cognitive control to do wrong.

Of the seven castles of hell, but he isn't beaten yet
Because his guard of honour stands at his right side

They are prepared for the final battle
So be ready to fight
The dark knights ride into the row of rebel men

And the stronger side had to win

And blood soaked the field

I keep finding myself wanting to post MOATS episodes, but they typically cover so much ground that I don't know where to post them. So here's a thread for discussion of Mother Of All Talk Shows episodes, George Galloway, and the Workers' Party in general.

Today's episode attached - Galloway covers Venezuela, Yemeni retaliations hitting "Israeli" airports, speculates that Iran may respond to "Israeli" threats (in light of previous attacks) with a strike, and more!

ICED | Thousands protest Renee killing | Iran warns US | Trump Greenland vow | Epstein and Mandy
🧊 ICED — George Galloway is LIVE as the world reels from protest, repression, and rising global tension. Tonight on The Mother of All Talk Shows, thousands take to the streets after the killing of Renee Good, ICE becomes a flashpoint in America’s deepening crisis, Iran issues stark warnings to the United States, and Donald Trump renews his explosive vow over Greenland.

As the news breaks in real time, George leads a forensic, unfiltered examination of a world hardening fast — where protest meets power, censorship meets resistance, and empire meets consequence.

🌎 Pepe Escobar — legendary independent journalist and geopolitical analyst — joins George to break down Venezuela, sanctions, CIA pressure, Latin America, Iran, and the accelerating shift toward a multipolar world. From Caracas to Tehran, Escobar explains how US power is being challenged — and what comes next.

🇺🇸 Jackson Hinkle — US-based political analyst and host of Legitimate Targets — reports from inside America as protests erupt, ICE dominates headlines, and political division deepens. Hinkle analyses the Renee Good killing, nationwide unrest, Trump’s agenda, and how US society is being reshaped in real time.

Tonight’s programme covers:
– Thousands protest after the Renee Good killing
– ICE, repression, and America’s internal fracture
– Iran warns the United States: escalation or deterrence?
– Trump’s Greenland vow and imperial politics
– Venezuela, Maduro, and sanctions warfare

REGIME CHANGE 2.0 | Target Tehran | Tariff overdose | Greenland summit | Starmer U-turns | Lira RIP
🔥 REGIME CHANGE 2.0 — the drums of war are beating again, and George Galloway is LIVE to expose it. As Washington sharpens its focus on Tehran, tariffs choke economies, Greenland re-enters imperial fantasy, and global instability accelerates, tonight’s edition of The Mother of All Talk Shows confronts the most dangerous phase yet of Western power politics.

The new year opens with familiar tactics in a new form: sanctions as weapons, propaganda as cover, and “regime change” repackaged for a fractured world. From Iran to Ukraine, Gaza to Venezuela, George examines whether 2026 is heading towards outright global war.

🇮🇷 LIVE FROM TEHRAN — Prof. Seyed Mohammad Marandi, Professor at the University of Tehran and one of the most authoritative voices on Iran–US relations, joins George direct from Iran. As tensions rise and threats multiply, Prof. Marandi explains how Tehran is reading Trump’s moves, the risk of escalation, Israel’s role, and what an attack on Iran would really mean for the region and the world.

⚖️ HERE COMES THE JUDGE — Judge Andrew Napolitano, host of Judging Freedom and former Senior Judge of the New Jersey Superior Court, returns to MOATS to dissect the legality of regime change, tariffs, sanctions, war powers, NATO expansion, and whether the West has abandoned international law altogether.

Tonight’s programme covers:
– Regime Change 2.0 and the renewed targeting of Tehran
– Trump, Israel, Mossad and the Iran pressure campaign
– Tariff overdose and economic warfare
– Greenland summit fantasies and imperial overreach
– Starmer U-turns and the collapse of Western credibility

As power politics turn brazen, Gaza is “ruled” from afar, ICE tightens its grip inside the United States, and war rhetoric escalates across multiple fronts, tonight’s edition of The Mother of All Talk Shows exposes the coercion, hypocrisy, and danger shaping the world in real time.

🌍 Global blackmail is back — and it’s no longer subtle. From Trump’s tariff threats and imperial fantasies to Western complicity in Gaza and the silencing of dissent, George opens with a forensic monologue on a world where pressure replaces diplomacy and force replaces law.

🇷🇺 Chay Bowes — political commentator and geopolitical analyst — joins George to break down Russian Rules, NATO propaganda, Ukraine, the Western media narrative collapse, and how the balance of power is shifting despite everything we’re told. As Washington and Brussels lose credibility, Bowes explains who is really winning the information war.

🇵🇸 Dr Annelle Rodriguez Sheline — former US State Department official and Middle East research fellow at the Quincy Institute — returns to MOATS to dissect Gaza, Blair’s role, US policy failures, and why Washington’s Middle East strategy is collapsing under its own contradictions. A rare insider’s view of how policy is made — and why it keeps failing.

Tonight’s programme covers:
– BLACKMAIL: Trump’s tariff threat — pay up or Greenland gets it
– The return of imperial pressure politics
– Blair “ruling” Gaza and Western double standards
– ICE, repression, and fear inside the United States
– Ukraine, Russia and the propaganda war

4. Arm enough that you could equip others if need be.

6. Do you not have land? Look for a place you can potentially go if you need to.
7. Figure out where all the munitions plants, munitions plants offices, logistics centers, etc. near you are.

You can also map out your local area in relation to where the nearest national guard will most likely be coming from. Figure out the roads they are most likely to take in order to get to you, or to the nearest city, quickly. Mark maps on paper. Prepare for when they come.

EU lawmakers vote to launch legal challenge to Mercosur trade deal

BRUSSELS, Jan 21 (Reuters) - EU lawmakers voted on Wednesday to challenge the European Union's contentious free trade agreement with South America in the bloc's top court, a move that could delay the deal by two years and potentially derail it.

The European Union signed its largest-ever trade pact with Mercosur members Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay on Saturday. The agreement still requires approval before it can take effect.

Opponents, led by France - the EU's largest agricultural producer - say the deal will sharply increase imports of cheap beef, sugar and poultry, undercutting domestic farmers who have staged repeated protests.

LEGAL CHALLENGE

A group of 144 lawmakers put forward a parliamentary motion to ask the EU Court of Justice to rule on whether the agreement can be applied before full ratification by all member states and whether its provisions restrict the EU's ability to set environmental and consumer health policies. The court typically takes around two years to deliver such opinions.

The European Parliament backed the motion with 334 votes in favour to 324 against, with 11 abstentions.
If referred to the court, the EU could still apply the pact provisionally pending the ruling and parliamentary approval. But doing so could prove politically difficult given the likely backlash, and the European Parliament would retain the power to annul it later.

After withdrawal of SDF | Members and families of IS*IS smuggled from Al-Hawl Camp
Al-Hawl Camp in Al-Hasakah countryside witnessed organized smuggling operations of ISIS members and families after the withdrawal of SDF from the camp that has held ISIS cells for many years, after the “International Coalition” forces refused demands of SDF to interfere to stop the attacks by local armed groups of the Syrian authority on the vicinity of the camp. According to local SOHR sources, smuggling networks took advantage of the security chaos and withdrawal of SDF to smuggle detaineea through several routes.

Jerusalem churches denounce Christian Zionism as betrayal of faith
Christians made up around 12.5 percent of the population of historic Palestine before 1948, compared with roughly 1.2 percent today across Israel and the occupied territories. During the war on Gaza, churches were repeatedly bombed and at least 44 Palestinian Christians were killed, according to the committee. Zionist organisations, some of them funded by the Israeli government, including Ataret Cohanim, continue efforts to take control of church-owned properties near the Jaffa Gate in Jerusalem’s Old City, close to the Christian and Armenian quarters.

What lies ahead in 2026?
As 2026 gets underway, British capitalism is entering another year in its long-running decline and disarray. This isn’t just a rough patch. Economic weakness, institutional decay, and social malaise are converging. Together they point to a system that has reached its limits. As the management committee of this broken system, the Starmer government is hated. But the anger goes deeper than just the government. The authority of Britain’s major institutions has collapsed. The police, the monarchy, the BBC, the courts, Parliament itself – none command any real respect. What’s striking is that the distrust comes from the left and right. The right sees ‘two-tier policing’ and a biased media; the left sees repression and corruption. All see the economic crisis and falling living standards. And increasing numbers draw the conclusion that these institutions are not neutral, competent, or legitimate. Westminster’s two-party system is now finished. Historically, Britain’s electoral system produced stable governments by rotating power between two large parties that could both, when push came to shove, be trusted to defend the interests of British capitalism. That arrangement is now breaking down.

“Bolivia Is Not for Sale”
“Fuerza, fuerza, fuerza! Fuerza, compañeros!” bellowed a man in a miner’s helmet into a megaphone. Marching through the sun-drenched streets in the haze of noisy firecrackers, thousands of miners, workers, peasants, civil society associations, and indigenous organizations in Bolivia descended on the city of La Paz earlier this month in the biggest social mobilization in at least five years. Beyond the city, road blockades led by union locals brought transport to a near standstill across the country. In the streets, the mantra was “Bolivia no se vende” (Bolivia is not for sale). The mass protests against the executive decree of newly elected Rodrigo Paz’s conservative government lasted nearly a month. While presented as the elimination of the fuel subsidy, which keeps gasoline prices artificially low, Decree 5503 would have also privatized key natural resources and implemented a wide range of austerity measures.

If you give any weight to the Principia Discordia, and you shouldn't, because it tells us so: I don't know about Malaclypse the Younger, but Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst was certainly involved in circles around forms of anarchism. Historians pretend Lord Omar themself published a newsletter called Zenarchy (it was really Ho Chi Zen).

The mere concept of Every Man a Pope has clear suggestions of anarchist horizontal structure. It would be absurd to claim that Discordianism isn't a product of anarchists tired of anarchism.

How many “bad apples”? – Serial rapist ex-police officer sentenced to life
“Bastard Dave” is the lighthearted nickname given to former armed police officer David Carrick by the colleagues who knew him best. This convicted sex offender, who was charged with 71 sexual offences in 2023, has recently received his 37th life sentence – this time, for the molestation of a 12-year-old girl in 1989. David Carrick is now known to have victimised 14 women across several decades. His harrowing crimes include 24 counts of rape, multiple cases of sustained violent physical and mental abuse, and threatening his victims with work-issued weaponry. Crown Prosecution Service Chief Prosecutor Jaswant Narwal stated during Carrick’s trial in 2023 that “the scale of the degradation Carrick subjected his victims to is unlike anything I have encountered in my 34 years with the Crown Prosecution Service”. Notably, Carrick made repeated use of his role in the police to enact this violence against women undisturbed. His distinct technique was to lure in his victims by reassuring them they were safe with him due to his position as a police officer.

John Reed Ten Days that Shook the World Chapter 1: Background
TOWARD the end of September, 1917, an alien Professor of Sociology visiting Russia came to see me in Petrograd. He had been informed by business men and intellectuals that the Revolution was slowing down. The Professor wrote an article about it, and then travelled around the country, visiting factory towns and peasant communities–where, to his astonishment, the Revolution seemed to be speeding up. Among the wage-earners and the land-working people it was common to hear talk of “all land to the peasants, all factories to the workers.” If the Professor had visited the front, he would have heard the whole Army talking Peace… The Professor was puzzled, but he need not have been; both observations were correct. The property-owning classes were becoming more conservative, the masses of the people more radical. There was a feeling among business men and the intelligentzia generally that the Revolution had gone quite far enough, and lasted too long; that things should settle dowPost too long.

The hunger strike is not over. 22yo Umer Khalid is on Day 9 of strike.

He gave the state 5 more days to enter negotiations until he stops drinking water.

Humans can only survive 3-4 days without water.

"Free Palestine, Free all political prisoners, Long live the Muqawamah (resistance)," Umer wrote. "I put my trust in Allah, and trust all of you to keep fighting. I am certain that neither Allah nor the people will abandon me…I believe the timing has never been better and victory is near inshallah."

These are Umer's demands:

1. Right to a Fair Trial and Full Disclosure of Evidence of the Brize Norton Damage Figures
2. End All Censorship
3. Deproscribe Palestine Action

They did, that's why they're in prison doing hunger strikes.

And the previous hunger strikers who just ended their hunger strike got some demands met. I'm just now realizing that I don't think I've posted much about that yet, here's the last post which alludes to it: >>493746
Basically they got some concessions wrt prisoners' rights, an Elbit contract with the British state got canceled, and IIRC someone from the government agreed to meet with their legal representatives. IMO it wasn't enough and they should have kept going until they got everything, but Umer Khalid just restarted his so it's possible that this tactic could be more effective in coming days.

I think hunger strikes are most effective in cultures with a tradition of hospitality. Where it's frowned upon to let a neighbor go hungry or be harmed. That's why they were effective in Ireland. I don't know if the UK is really like that, the English especially seem to have a history of being nasty to their neighbors.
