You've probably heard of the Navy's MKULTRA precursor program Project CHATTER. But did you know they had another study where they attempted to make an individual "subservient" to an "imposed will?" I found the documents 🤯

Top Biden officials are in full blown reputation laundering mode, doing a full court press to rewrite what happened in 2023 and 2024. Meanwhile zero high profile progressives are pushing back. Nothing from any major liberal outlets, nothing from Sanders, AOC, Khanna or Mamdani.
You'll rarely find an insider account as vivid and revealing as this from @brett_mcgurk

Despite the fines and mounting pressure, Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair continues to honour Palestinian children killed in Gaza. This time, it’s Lana, 12, and Bana, 8, who were killed alongside their family in an Israeli attack earlier this month.

🇮🇪🇵🇸 “Israel thought they could get rid of us, and they can’t - this is proof of our existence.” - Palestinian goalkeeper Charlotte Phillips, flanked in Dalymount Park by her grandparents, who were both driven from their homes by Israel. Her grandfather: “We would like to thank Ireland. Nobody has done what Ireland has done for us. Thank you very much, Ireland. We love you. We love you.” Her grandmother: “The Irish people are so warm. Every time someone says something to me, I just want to cry because we have never seen this in our lives.” #StopTheGame

People who live in bubbles like Schneider feel empowered to call others ignorant while giving incorrect information about October 7 casualties. This is entirely to excuse the medieval butchery of "Israel" on a captive population thats about half children.
Rob Schneider invokes the nonsensical "suicidal empathy" term to attack Javier Bardem for his opposition of genocide. Interviewer Andrew Gold argues there's no empathy involved. Two genocide propagandists proudly doing genocide propaganda three years into an ongoing genocide.

Everything you thought you knew about the pagers attack was just barely scratching the surface. Last night I finished watching "The Trap," directed by @radwanmortada. The Zionist entity has portrayed the September 2024 pagers and walkie-talkie attacks as one of the greatest military-intelligence feats in history. But behind that public narrative of victory is overcompensation for an operational failure. Without a doubt, the attacks were one of the worst blows dealt to the Lebanese resistance in its history, and reflected serious intelligence shortcomings. But the years of investigations in this new documentary reveals that the true Zionist plot was far, far more devastating, and the relentless investigations and discoveries made by one Hezbollah engineer thwarted that plot and prevented tens of thousands of more casualties. The pagers were detonated early because Hezbollah, suspecting tampering, began to withdraw them from the field. Despite the losses, the true Zionist objective of completely dismantling Hezbollah with the click of a button failed, and today the organization still endures, rebuilds, and resists. To access the English subtitles, you must select the settings button and click إنجليزية Episode 1: aljazeera360.com/video/10176… Episode 2: aljazeera360.com/video/10176…
English subtitles are now available for The Trap (Al-Mesyada), my two-part investigative documentary on the pager and walkie-talkie attacks. The investigation began immediately after the attacks and took nearly two years of research, filming and investigation across nine countries, tracing the operation and uncovering previously unpublished information and documents. You can now watch both episodes with English subtitles: Episode 1: aljazeera360.com/video/10176… Episode 2: aljazeera360.com/video/10176…

In Gaza, there's now 1 specialist doctor for 5000 people, reports journalist @Bisan_Shrafi, citing the Gaza Health Ministry. Before the genocide, 1 specialist doctor for 632 people. The new charts show how the healthcare system is falling apart: 181 specialist doctors were killed, kidnapped, or left Gaza. 1517 from 21,000 patients and genocide-wounded people registered for medical evacuation died.

One year before the Israeli genocide, the number of doctors in Gaza was 3478 including 1565 specialist doctors. Now, it's 1434 including 413 specialist doctors. The lack is conspicuous in: oncology, cardiac surgery, vascular surgery, general surgery, orthopedics, pediatric surgery, general internal medicine, neurosurgery, obstetrics and gynecology, endocrinology, and urology.

“Paid for by the State of Israel” is really the cherry on top.
An ad on the streets of New York near the UN that is aimed at Iranian delegation who the US has banned from shopping while here. “Paid for by the State of Israel”

My dear brother William @willmenaker Today, we did not send you an ordinary message of gratitude. Instead, we decided to write our gratitude on the walls of Gaza itself. The young members of Project Mohammed painted your portrait on one of the walls still standing amid the destruction, because your voice has never been merely distant words to us. Here, your voice has become water for thirsty children, bread for hungry families, and meals for people exhausted by hunger. The war may have destroyed the buildings around us, but it could never erase the gratitude in our hearts. We wanted your portrait to remain here, among the people you stood beside during the most difficult days of their lives. When the children saw the mural, we told them: “This is William—a man who may be far away, but whose heart is very close to Gaza. His voice helped bring you water and bread.” This is not simply a portrait on a shattered wall. It is a message from Gaza to you: You did not witness our suffering and remain silent. You helped the world see and hear us. Because of you, our team has been able to give thousands of families a measure of hope and life. From the children of Gaza, the young members of Project Mohammed, and the depths of our hearts: thank you, brother. You have become part of the story of this place, and your impact will remain engraved in our hearts—even if these walls disappear one day. 🤍 Support Project Mohammed directly: chuffed.org/project/171225

On the eve of Netanyahu's visit to the UN, We (@HindRFoundation) are in @thenation arguing that the US is able & obligated to arrest him under US law But it won't act, which is why lawmakers must begin taking concrete steps to hold Israeli perpetrators accountable [link below]

Truly horrible news. Fergie Chambers is one of the biggest individual donors to Palestine in the past three years. All we've seen him do is supporting vulnerable people on the ground in Gaza. Free Fergie Chambers!
Spain has allowed the U.S. extradition case against pro-Palestine philanthropist Fergie Chambers to move forward instead of blocking it. His lawyer, Baltasar Garzón, called the decision “a dangerous precedent for the defense of the Palestinian cause.”

Imagine you make it through boot camp where the primary lesson was “when Netanyahu says jump you say how high” and then Logan Paul is there to mouth breath around you and take pics
Last Thursday, we welcomed Logan and Jake Paul to the Pentagon to meet with our warriors.
