For nearly two months, Palestinians in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood had access to water at any time — a welcome sense of stability in the depths of a genocidal war. That stability was disrupted on Aug. 24 by an Israeli airstrike that destroyed a newly built water desalination plant.

"Many people prefer to believe the brutes and the sadists are responsible, largely because they are not like 'us,'" writes @omerbartov.bsky.social. "But modern genocide is the product of the technocrats, bureaucrats and cold planners of extermination, who don’t get their hands dirty."
t's become impossible to discuss Israel's actions. The discussion immediately gets twisted into something else entirely. And yet the destruction of Gaza, West Bank, South Lebanon, South Syria, Iran continues. With a side order of Yemen.

The ICC responded: "It is an attempt to obstruct the course of justice and to prevent the Court from doing what it was created to do. It is an assault on the rule of law and on the very foundations of the international legal order ... that no one stands above the law. The designation is aimed at disrupting the Court’s operations and at intimidating those who work for or cooperate with the Court. The Court, for its part, will not be deterred." icc-cpi.int/news/icc-strongly-… 4/n

Now THIS is a Peace Prize worth its name and the status of the Nobel. Dr. Navi Pillay's roles in the judging of Myanmar's genocide as well as the inquiry into Israel's genocide of Palestinians have been critical toward determining what is right and just. We're lucky to have her dedication.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has pledged to do everything within Moscow’s power to help resolve the Middle East conflict following talks with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. Putin praised Iran’s efforts to end the war, which began with US-Israeli attacks on February 28, and highlighted the strengthening relationship between Moscow and Tehran. The leaders met ahead of the Commonwealth of Independent States summit in Turkmenistan, as Russia and Iran continue to deepen diplomatic actions.

What I find particularly interesting is how quickly the returns from weaponising choke points in an inter connected world has diminished, much more so than I'd expected, and a lesson to an EU very much third in terms of being an economic power. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/o...
What is interesting about these BOT accounts is not so much that they exist, especially in a time of war, but that the content that must be conveyed to the gullible audience is such complete and utter drivel. Dmitry Peskov should find better representation for his earth shattering press release. #Russia
I've noticed that russians are way more sensitive to changes in their quality of life than horrors their country inflicting on others. Internet outages, slow down of goods delivery and fuel shortages makes the war visible to them and breaks the idea that war could just pass by without consequences
If you, like me, want to support Russians and Belarussians who don't believe the propaganda, here's a way: Meduza is an independent media outlet, publishing reliable and factual news both in Russian and in English. However, they are deemed an "undesirable organization" and funding them can get you a prison term. So if you want the Russian-speaking world to be able to get propaganda-free news, donating to Meduza is a way: mdza.io/k/kfHIIdzlBA #SupportIndependentMedia #Russia #Ukraine

Our allies are hedging. The Gulf states bought American protection and got a war they didn’t start, on their own soil. Shawn Howard and I worked together at CIA and both deployed to the region. When Iranian missiles hit, we watched the U.S. evacuate our Gulf bases. Our hosts couldn’t leave.
🇮🇷 IRGC Warns Oil Tankers: Iran’s Blockade Extends Beyond #Hormuz Iran’s IRGC Navy has warned that vessels attempting to circumvent its maritime blockade could be targeted beyond the Strait of Hormuz. Gulf states have increasingly relied on ship-to-ship oil transfers and smaller tankers to keep exports flowing despite Iranian restrictions. Recent Iranian attacks on commercial shipping have demonstrated that tankers are vulnerable well beyond the Strait itself. 🔴
Three years after the start of Israel's war on Gaza, Britain's Palestine solidarity movement has evolved from mass marches to direct action, civil disobedience and campaigns against companies linked to the Israeli military.
