Good News: We Are on a Boat Ride Together; Bad News: It’s Being Steered by Psychopaths

The past years have been one blow after another, massacre after massacre, including in Iran and Lebanon now.

In my video, I share a metaphor with you that might capture how you, too, have been feeling – and what’s needed to make it stop.

Destroying everything and everyone in its way, with no red lines being imposed by other global powers: this is what Israel and the U.S. have been doing for decades.

Now, from the annihilation of Gaza, daily terrorism in the West Bank, and daily ceasefire violations in Lebanon, Israel is seizing the opportunity to illegally occupy more of Lebanon while, together with the U.S., it is living Netanyahu’s life-long dream of bombing Iran.

My video is on a metaphor of how everything feels right now, in addition to Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, and the fact that your government, too, might be supporting these fascist regimes. In short, it’s been heavy. But not to do anything when psychopaths are in power would be even heavier.

I also want to share a clip from Piers Morgan’s interview with Prof. Jeffrey Sachs that I think is as excellent as it is alarming. Prof. Sachs is one of the informed voices of conscience I deeply admire, and I encourage you to always seek his analyses.

This year, which feels decades-long already, I promise unwavering independent anticolonial and antifascist commentary, which is still produced solely by me.


As always, stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.

An Interview on Iran and Israel You Have to See

This is an absolute must-watch: Jeremy Scahill, one of the few journalists who interviews and is trusted by various actors, including the Iranian government, talks to Samir Mohyeddin about the U.S.-Iranian negotiations and Israel’s “fragile ceasefires” in Gaza and Lebanon. It’s a conversation good for our brains and conscience.

When Words Become Both The Representation And The Represented

The simplest propaganda technique – blatant lies – might be all that Israel and its supporters have left in their toolbox. Yet words with no meaning is what our leaders, too, have been resorting to for years now, following Israel itself.
