DANNY HAIPHONG—Rapper and journalist Lowkey and Beirut-based journalist Laith Marouf reveal the shocking developments taking place in Israel’s broadening war in West Asia. This video breaks down the depths of Israel’s Lebanon, Gaza, and Iran fronts and how in each, there are kernels of destruction that are rocking both the region and the world and hint, it’s not good for Israel. Lowkey and Laith also discuss the possibly inevitable era of repression to envelope the “collective West”, especially the US, as the ruling class is forced to create a police state with concentration camps to neutralise opposition to the approved criminal and dysfunctional order. The Empire and Israel may be doomed, but they won’t go quietly into the night.

MARTIN C FREDERICKS IV—It’s true that a year and two days ago Hamas fighters killed Israelis in an attack. It’s equally true that even at the low end of death estimates, and using the inaccurate figure of 1,200 Israelis killed by Hamas on that day, in the past year Israel has visited 35 October 7ths upon the people of Palestine. Factor in estimates of people trapped under the rubble and otherwise missing, and it’s more like 167 October 7ths. Finally, it’s true that Israel has been murdering Palestinians for 76 years now…Meanwhile, much of what we’ve been fed since Oct. 7, 2023 by the governments of Israel and the USA has been untrue.

AJAMU BARAKA—With all of the crimes that have occurred in human history, especially over the last five hundred years of European colonial/capitalist hegemony, nothing compares to the vicious assault on the concentration camp called Gaza. Not because of its scale or even viciousness, it should be remembered that the assault on Libya during the Obama administration resulted in estimates of up to 50,000 deaths in just over seven months. But of course, images of that attack were carefully curated and disseminated by the mainstream press to support the narrative of the NATO mission as a mission to save the Libyan people.

EDITOR—New York Congressional candidate Jose Vega is at it again, interrupting the rich and powerful at high-end, elite symposia to drop truth on the panelists and attendees alike. This time Jose stood up to tell Paul Krugman and his fellow CUNY panelists that their high-minded discussion of our ostensibly booming economy ignores the very real economic pain being experienced by a large swath of the public. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how necessary Jose Vega’s disruptive events are to confronting establishment narratives.
