“What's behind Hezbollah’s legendary resilience?”

“Hezbollah’s resilience in the face of fierce storms is neither a fleeting miracle nor a temporary anomaly. Rather, it is the inevitable product of a complex and realistic equation that combines a rigid yet flexible ideological organization with a loyal popular base”

“Multiple far right Israeli ministers attended New York City’s Israel Day Parade on Sunday, including Israel’s genocidal finance minister Bezalel Smotrich.
Smotrich is ideologically not significantly different from a Nazi. Which means New York City just hosted a Nazi parade that was attended by thousands of people”

Yet, this image of supremacy and control that was sold through official State propaganda for 15 months was discredited by Hezbollah in just over 40 days”

I used to wait for my daughter Kinda to fall asleep after hours of playing.
She would hold her teddy bears tightly, as if they were her little friends.
Her cheeks still rosy from laughter, her curls messy from joy.
I always thought my daughter Kinda would grow up in peace. 💔

"There were many attempts at co-existence, but this simply would not have benefited the Zionist leadership who never intended to come to Palestine to live as equals.
By the end of the war, 800,000 Palestinians would be ethnically cleansed from approximately 530 villages and communities. Israel would be established on the rubble of these villages, and their settlers would come to call the emptied abodes that once housed Palestinian families home."

@palestine@lemmy.ml
@iran
“Since early March 2026, the average American household has been spending 50 percent more to fill their tank than just one month earlier. The Trump administration and its Israel-first ideologues blamed market forces for the spike, framing it as short-term pain for long-term gain. What they will not say, what they are never permitted to say in Washington, is that Americans have been living the ‘pain’ of the Israeli oil surcharge tax for more than half a century. The bill keeps growing, but no longer only financially. The US is also paying with something harder to rebuild than a budget, its moral standing in the world”
