The new scale of Israel’s destruction of Lebanon should have shocked and shaken everyone.
And in a world where morals play a role in politics, we would have seen outrage, condemnation, and the cutting of ties – years too late, I know – with Israel.
Now, what we’re seeing is not just (”just”) Israel’s disregard for human lives, but even for the U.S.-Iranian ceasefire. I think it says a lot about how much Israel respects U.S. interests, and whether there’s anything that would make it give up its colonial expansionist ambitions.
In my video, I also remind us who, in the end, is showing up for the people of Lebanon. I also invite you to do it by showing solidarity with your friends in Lebanon in these increasingly horrific times.
First, I encourage you to donate to organisations in Lebanon that need our solidarity right now.
Then, if you’d like, I am also inviting you to my workshop, whose proceeds will partly go towards humanitarian relief efforts in Lebanon, here ❤️🩹
Lastly, if you choose to support my work, please consider inviting me for coffee or contributing to cover my hosting fees (WordPress, domain, music licensing, etc.) for 2026 by clicking one of the buttons below.
The people dearest to me know that I love sending postcards (my mom has the largest collection that I started almost 20 years ago).
Now, I am offering to send a postcard to anyone who contributes $50 USD or more to my work. Just make a donation and send me (jposkeviciute[at]gmail.com) a mailing address where my card can reach you!
As always, stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
❤️💔❤️

On Iran, (Ir)rationality, and Those Who Didn’t See Any Destabilisation of The Region in Israel’s Genocide
Remember when Iran used to be called an irrational, unpredictable actor? Well, I invite you to notice any changes when it comes to irrationality, constructed narratives, and how war propaganda looks these days.
On One of The Gravest Crimes against Humanity That Not Every Country Chose to Condemn at The UN
The UN just voted to describe the transatlantic slave trade as ‘the gravest crime against humanity’. Yet not every country, according to its vote, agrees. My commentary is on what the abstentions show.
Your Antiwar Voice Is Needed More Than You Might Think
The war machine won’t stop until it’s stopped, just as its propaganda won’t just disappear on its own. It was to be actively pointed to, deconstructed, and rejected as loudly as possible. And this is where everyone’s voice matters.
