Israel Cuts Gaza's Internet Amid Soaring IDF Atrocities
12/06/2025 Duración: 02minIt has driven the Israelis mad that their global support is being eroded by Palestinians recording their own genocide and broadcasting the footage to the world. If they think they can get away with keeping Gaza in the dark they absolutely will do so, while continuing to seek out further ways to hide the truth from the world. Reading by Tim Foley.

After Denying Massacring Civilians Seeking Aid, Israel Routinely Massacres Civilians Seeking Aid
11/06/2025 Duración: 04minAt the beginning of this month, Israel and its apologists ferociously denied claims that IDF troops had fired upon civilians seeking aid at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) site, killing 31 people. On the second of June, Israeli forces again opened fire on civilians seeking aid in Gaza, killing three people and injuring more than 30. On June 3, Israeli forces again opened fire on civilians seeking aid, reportedly killing at least 27 people. The US/Israeli-backed GHF temporarily suspended operations after this spate of mass shootings. On June 8, Israeli forces again fired upon civilians seeking aid at two separate distribution points in Gaza, killing twelve. On June 9, Israel and Israeli-backed forces opened fire on a crowd at an aid site in Gaza, killing 14. And on June 10, at least 36 people were reported killed and 208 wounded when Israeli forces again fired on crowds seeking aid in Gaza. Reading by Tim Foley.

While The Waymos Burn
10/06/2025 Duración: 01minWhile the Waymos burn While the air over LA fills with smoke and teargas and Reaper drones While Israelis hand each other trophies for not murdering Greta Thunberg While Palantir stocks soar and insect populations plummet While the news man writes headlines with increasingly creative phrasing While people with nothing to lose sharpen guillotine blades While the bank boys ask why the robot armies aren’t ready yet While keffiyeh-clad heroes march to Gaza While secret saints work secret miracles in the margins While a sleeping giant stirs within our depths While the flames dance in Buddha’s eyes While my peacock feather heart opens like a fuchsia bud While the tears roll down my cheeks for the dead and the dying While the firelight dances on my walls and the rebels dance in the fire I open my strange palms to our strange future and welcome it Come what may. Reading by Tim Foley.

Sky News Smears Greta Thunberg As A Nazi To Justify IDF Attack
09/06/2025 Duración: 06minShortly before the IDF raided the Madleen, Sky News host Jonathan Samuels strongly implied that the ship deserved to be attacked because it is full of antisemites and Hamas supporters. Reading by Tim Foley.

Offending Zionists Is Good, Actually
08/06/2025 Duración: 06minI can't believe it's 2025 and people are still worried about offending Zionists. Oh gosh I'd better issue an apology, I've upset the people who are cheerleading an active genocide. Better be careful how I word this or I might seem insensitive to people who think it's fine to bomb hospitals and burn children alive. Oh no I can't say that because if I do I'll be in hot water with the "intentionally starving civilians is good" crowd. Reading by Tim Foley.

A Truth-Based Relationship With Reality Requires Courage
07/06/2025 Duración: 04minUltimately it comes down to courage. Being brave enough to stare squarely at the horrors of Gaza. To face the harsh reality that we are ruled by monsters and our civilization is diseased. To bring our own inner darkness into the light of consciousness where it can be healed. Reading by Tim Foley.

Epstein, Israel, ISIS, Palantir
06/06/2025 Duración: 05minThere's no reason to take seriously anything Elon Musk says during a textbook case of narcissistic collapse, but for the record if anyone in Washington is likely to have been blackmailed by Epstein it's Donald John Trump. Reading by Tim Foley.

Zen And The Art Of New York Times Headline Writing
05/06/2025 Duración: 03minIt's amazing how creative these freaks get when they need to publicly exonerate Israel and its western allies of their crimes. The IDF commits a war crime and suddenly these stuffy mass media editors who've never created any art in their lives transform into poets, bending and twisting the English language to come up with lines that read more like Zen koans than reporting on an important news event. Reading by Tim Foley.

This Is Israel
04/06/2025 Duración: 05minAll those dead kids on your social media feed are the fruit of a tree whose seed was planted after the second world war. That tree has been bearing more and more fruit, and it will continue to for as long as it remains standing. Because that's just the kind of tree it is. The only kind of tree it ever could have been. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israel's Backers Are Now Advocating The Assassination Of Greta Thunberg
02/06/2025 Duración: 06minUS Senator Lindsay Graham has just tweeted an article titled “Greta Thunberg sets sail with Gaza flotilla that aims to break Israeli naval blockade,” adding the comment, “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” Australian Zionist think tanker Arsen Ostrovsky somehow outdid Graham, tweeting “Oh look, the little jihadi Greta Thunberg is trying to get into Gaza, to show solidarity with Hamas. It would be so sad if something were to happen to her flotilla…” There’s not a lot that can shock me about Israel and its supporters these days. But if you’d traveled back in time a few years ago it would be hard to explain to someone how we got to a timeline that includes Israel supporters openly advocating the assassination of Greta Thunberg. Reading by Tim Foley.

Gaza's Hospitals ARE The Target
30/05/2025 Duración: 05minWe've seen multiple reports from doctors documenting Israeli forces actually entering hospitals they've attacked and destroying all the individual pieces of medical equipment in those facilities, one by one. Reading by Tim Foley.

If This Is What Israel Does, Then Israel Shouldn't Exist
29/05/2025 Duración: 05minIf what we are seeing in Gaza is what it means for Israel to exist, then it shouldn't. People scream bloody murder when you say this, but it shouldn't be a controversial position. I'm not saying Jews shouldn't exist, I'm saying a genocidal apartheid state should not exist. A state is an artificial construct of the human mind, held together by human actions. If the actions we are witnessing in Gaza are the product of the artificial construct of the Israeli state, then that artificial construct should be dismantled, and those actions should cease. Reading by Tim Foley.

Sorry If This Is Antisemitic But I Think It's Wrong To Burn Children Alive
28/05/2025 Duración: 05minsrael is burning children alive in Gaza. And call me an antisemitic Jew-hating Nazi terrorist lover if you must, but I happen to believe that's wrong. Reading by Tim Foley.

This Dystopia Would Never Be Accepted Without Extensive Indoctrination
27/05/2025 Duración: 04minIt takes a lot of education to make us this stupid. Our minds require a whole lot of training to accept this horrific dystopia as the baseline norm. That's why the empire we live under has the most sophisticated domestic propaganda machine that has ever existed. Reading by Tim Foley.
-
It's A Complete Lie To Say Gaza Can Have Peace If Hamas Surrenders
25/05/2025 Duración: 07minAnyone who says Gaza will be at peace if Hamas just surrenders and releases the hostages is either knowingly sowing disinformation or ignorantly sowing misinformation. We need to make sure everyone's clear on this so no one can say they didn't know after history unpacks this one. Reading by Tim Foley.

Today's Hitler Says "Free Palestine" Is Today's "Heil Hitler"
24/05/2025 Duración: 04minThere’s been a frenetic push from the pro-Israel crowd in using the slain embassy staffers to argue that pro-Palestine protesters need to be shut down, and it’s just so ridiculous. Nobody should grant it even one second of serious consideration. Reading by Tim Foley.

Thoughts On The Israeli Embassy Staff Killings
23/05/2025 Duración: 05minTwo Israeli embassy staffers getting shot in Washington DC is less newsworthy than tens of thousands of Palestinians being killed in Israel's genocidal land grab. It is less important. It deserves less attention. It is not the main story. Israel's genocide in Gaza is the main story. Reading by Tim Foley.
