Report from Beirut: Israel Expands Bombing Campaign & Mass Displacement in Lebanon

We speak with journalist Lylla Younes in Lebanon, where she says Israel’s “massacres are multiplying” amid the broader U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. Israeli strikes have killed nearly 700 people in Lebanon over the past two weeks, while attacks have expanded to include areas of central Beirut, which Israel claims are aimed at the powerful Hezbollah militia. This comes as Israel has vowed to expand its incursion into southern Lebanon.

“The vast majority of southern Lebanon is now under displacement orders,” says Younes. “That is approximately 15% of the country.”

A Distraction from Epstein Files? Trump Ramps Up Chaos in Minnesota, Greenland & Beyond

AMY GOODMAN: And finally, Michele, I wanted to ask you about another topic. One month has now passed since Congress’s deadline for the Justice Department to release all files on the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, but the DOJ says it’s made available less than 1% of those files. And you see many people are saying, “Is he going after Minneapolis, saying he’s going to take Greenland, you know, taking the president of Venezuela, and possibly threatening to bomb Iran to take attention away?” Could that be it? You see his sensitivity at the Dearborn auto plant, when a worker yelled “Pedophile protector! Pedophile protector!” and he turned around and gave him the finger and mouthed the words “F— you,” but said the curse.

MICHELE GOODWIN: Well, it’s certainly inconsistent with what were the campaign promises. The campaign promises to those who supported Trump, and those who didn’t, was that the files would be released, all of the files. Now, that’s not happened, so — and that’s critically important.

JSoc: Obama‘s secret assassins

The film Dirty Wars, which premiered at Sundance, can be viewed, as Amy Goodman sees it, as an important narrative of excesses in the global „war on terror“. It is also a record of something scary for those of us at home – and uncovers the biggest story, I would say, in our nation‘s contemporary history.

Noam Chomsky: Dies ist der bemerkenswerteste regionale Aufstand, an den ich mich erinnere

Der Mut, die Entschlossenheit und das Engagement der Demonstranten ist bemerkenswert. Was immer geschehen wird – diese Momente werden nicht in Vergessenheit geraten.
