The circle of countries that show unshakeable support to Israel is shrinking.
Unfortunately, my country has chosen to stay in that circle no matter what.
It’s not an exaggeration. While even some major EU players – like Spain and Italy – are speaking out against Israeli crimes and the need to cut ties with it, my country, Lithuania, has been proudly strengthening its military, economic, cultural, and medical ties with Israel.
The fall of my government into a moral abyss, together with Israel, is, indeed, endless. I’ve been documenting it for two and a half years now, mostly in Lithuanian, with no lack of shameful instances to comment on (you can find my older comments here and my newer ones on my new YouTube channel in Lithuanian; my English one is here).
My video today is on a lot of things. It’s on one absolutely grotesque example of that Lithuanian-Israel cooperation; it’s on rage that might feel familiar; and it’s on the need to continue feeling it, as it is only an adequate emotion that propels us forward.
Also, if you have been thinking of taking your speaking-out efforts beyond LinkedIn posts (no matter how important), let’s connect on May 26th. Find my workshop here. It’s also one of my ways to collect funds for humanitarian relief efforts in Lebanon ♥️
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 The Global Sumud Flotilla, What The World with Israel in It Looks Like, And What It Does to Our Nervous Systems
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.
