Nearing 600 killed in Lebanon over the past two days. There are already 40,000 US troops now in the Middle East and more on the way. And this in AP News:
“On Monday, the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, two Navy destroyers and a cruiser set sail from Norfolk, Virginia, headed to the Sixth Fleet area in Europe on a regularly scheduled deployment. The ships’ departure opens up the possibility that the U.S. could keep both the Truman and the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which is in the Arabian Gulf, in the region in case more violence breaks out.”

Julian Assange years in Belmarsh Prison for publishing the truth about empire's war crimes; Edward Snowden still exiled for telling the truth about warrantless spying on citizens and foreign leaders; the intentional public war on truth that began in empire on 9/11.
Israel trying to prevent basic journalism of their genocide, by any means necessary, is another case of who set their example - and allows their conduct.
They have arrested Mujahed, but they cannot arrest his mind, his soul. May the grace of God protect him and his family on this difficult path. You have lit a righteous fire that will keep us mindful and strong
It has never been clearer that our most prescient commentator was Pogo: "We have met the enemy, and he is us."
This is no longer in doubt, the question is what are we going to do about it?
One thing might be to support UNRWA. If our governments won’t act in accordance with humanity, then we will.

"The most moral army in the world!" insists the White House, envious and sore that they can only censor their political opponents.

Thoreau wrote On the Duty of Civil Disobedience for exactly that reason.
