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.
❤️💔❤️

To exist in the world where Israel, too, exists – to physically be and function in such a world – is hard on our nervous systems. The new horrors of the kidnapping of Thiago Avila and Saif Abu Keshek are yet another reminder of how that heaviness won’t go away, as long as Israel -…
How Did Jon Stewart Miss The Greatest Piece of Satire on His Show?
Here’s a reminder that choosing to interview someone who history – and, hopefully, the ICJ – will remember as a war criminal and a genocide enabler, like Annalena Baerbock, is very much not cool. Especially when you have a massive platform.
