The UK government has announced plans to operate a chartered flight next week for British nationals wishing to leave Israel and the illegally Occupied Palestinian Territories.

Among those being flown out are Britons who reside not only in Israel but in illegal settlements within the occupied West Bank.

These settlements are a central feature of Israel’s apartheid regime, condemned under international law.

Keep 'em coming

"Protests were held around the world on Sunday against the #Trump administration’s airstrikes on #Iran. Demonstrators at several locations carried Iranian flags, and some held signs and placed banners across fences and buildings that read “No War in Iran!”

Trump has no effing idea how oil markets work. No amount of domestic production will change global prices when the market is reacting to Iran’s threat to close the Strait of Hormuz, which is a choke point in the shipment of 20% of the world’s daily oil supply.


Die Israel-Führung will einen Regimewechsel im Iran erzwingen.
Da ist es logisch, dass man das Gefägnis für Regimegegner in Teheran mit Bomben oder Drohnen bepflastert, um diesen Regimegegnern ... 🤔 ja was eigentlich? Den Garaus machen? Volltreffer 🤯

Zitat:
Israels Armee greift nach Angaben des Verteidigungsministeriums das berüchtigte Ewin-Gefängnis in Irans Hauptstadt Teheran an.
Im Ewin-Gefängnis sind viele politische Dissidenten inhaftiert

Nein. Die Regierung des Staates Israel will die Regierung des Staates Iran behalten. Dass sie was von regime change erzählen, ist halt die Propaganda, die es braucht, um die Spießer der "westlichen" Staates für die Unterstützung des Krieges zu gewinnen. Dafür ist dann ja "jedes Mittel recht"!
Der Angriff auf den Iran erfolgt zu einer Zeit, als die Unterstützung des Gaza-Krieges extern wie intern zu bröckeln beginnt. Also macht man ein neues Fass auf...


The UK Government is not applying international law differently for different countries, the Scottish Secretary has insisted.

Ian Murray, repeatedly refused to say whether the US air strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, which took place over the weekend, breached international law.

The top Labour MP insisted that the Government did not issue judgments on “the legality of another country's actions”.

"A masterpiece"

On Saturday 21 June, US president Donald Trump launched massive and illegal missile attacks on the sovereign nation of Iran.

He did so in total violation of international law, and without the consent of the US congress or the support of the US people.

It was an unjustifiable act of aggression which threatens to escalate into a full-scale war which will kill many, further destabilise the Middle East.

[1 of 2] Two tunes for you!

🎹 The first is the “industrial” tune I posted here a couple of weeks ago with a better “cyberpunk” video, featuring me jamming on a new-to-me Yamaha DJX (a keyboard from 1998).

🎹 The second is a “’90s downtempo” track in the style of bands like Morcheeba, Lamb, and Tricky, this time on a new-to-me Yamaha DJX II (the follow-up to the DJX from 2000).

[2 of 2] Among other things, I make technology videos, which I post on the Global Nerdy YouTube channel. While I think I have a pretty good narrating voice (I’ve been told time and again that I should be on the radio), a video still benefits from having a good soundtrack. I already do the writing, presenting, and graphics — why not also do the music?
