Propaganda Watch
Palestine: All Gazans are drinking unsafe water. Nearly all 600K kids in Rafah are “injured, sick or malnourished.” Israel’s Minister of Finance called for the “total annihilation” of Gaza. “Israel will, under no circumstances, agree to end the war as part of a deal.” An IOF tank killed two Israeli reservists in Gaza. Israel is accused of using illegal bombs that melt bodies. Israelis are protesting in the tens of thousands for a hostage deal and elections. A third of the almost 10K Palestinian hostages are held by Israel without a stated reason. During Iran’s retaliation against Israel, the US only intercepted 2 missiles, while Israel intercepted 84% (it previously claimed 99%). An estimated 10K Gazans are under buried under rubble. An Israeli policeman killed a Palestinian citizen of Israel.
Ukraine: Like others have said, Russia and Ukraine were “very close to peace” shortly after Russia’s invasion, but Boris Johnson told Ukraine to fight, among other reasons. Ukraine’s Foreign Minister admitted that “Russia is more effective [than the West] in its war effort.” US intelligence has no proof Putin had Navalny killed. The Guardian whitewashed Azov fighters as non-Nazis.
Empire: LA police “disappeared” while Zionist thugs attacked the UCLA encampment for 4 hours; cops later returned to shoot the students with rubber bullets. 99% of pro-Palestine protests on US campuses have been peaceful since Oct 7. 59 journalism professors called for an investigation into the NYT’s debunked “Screams Without Words.” The Columbia encampment crackdown was led by a prof who also leads a NYPD division that collaborates with Israel. French police brutalized May Day protestors. NYC’s mayor falsely called a teacher an “outside agitator.”
Global South: Venezuela has delivered nearly 5M homes since 2011 as part of its Great Housing Mission (the goal being 7M by 2030). China hosted Fatah and Hamas for reconciliatory talks.
