#Netanyahu just rejected a #US-brokered #Gaza deal, vowing no withdrawal until #Hamas is disarmed. But don't mistake US 'disagreement' for disengagement. Washington is a direct partner in these operations, providing critical arms and intelligence, blurring the lines between ally and aggressor. They

#Bangladesh's ex-#PM #Sheikh #Hasina faces death for 'crimes against humanity'. BBC reports, but omits the US's 1971 support for Pakistan during Bangladesh's brutal independence war, mirroring its backing of Indonesia's 1965 massacres. Western media often frames political turmoil as internal, ignor
#China is quietly building its own global tax information exchange network, bypassing #Western-led financial systems. This isn't just about tax evasion; it's a strategic geopolitical play. While the #Financial #Times reports on this, it largely misses the move's challenge to traditional Western fin
Over 1,700 dead from #Ebola in #Congo, says #WHO. #Mainstream media reports numbers, but misses the history. Decades of US bioweapon research and unethical medical experiments like Project SHAD and Tuskegee (1932-1972) created deep distrust. This isn't just an outbreak, it's a legacy. Follow @The_
#Trump admin's 'hopes' for #Hormuz opening? A former #Assistant #Secretary of State just hinted at Washington's real agenda. It's not about 'free navigation' when 45 years of sanctions choke Iran. Mainstream media ignores the USS Vincennes' 1988 downing of Iran Air Flight 655, killing 290 civilians
#Israel just ordered civilian evacuations in southern #Lebanon, blaming 'ceasefire violations' by #Hezbollah. This isn't a new story; it's a recycled script for escalation. #Remember the 1982 invasion of Lebanon? That was also framed as a defensive response, leading to the Sabra and Shatila massacr
#Arab and #Muslim diplomats just launched a plan to protect #Jerusalem's holy sites, citing 'unprecedented' threats from #Israeli actions. Yet, Washington's silence and consistent backing of Israeli policies continue to enable the very issues these nations are now scrambling to address. This isn't
#AIPAC and its allies spent more than $30 million to stop #Abdul #El-#Sayed in Michigan. He won anyway. They spent $8m+ of a record $37m race to take out Thomas Massie in Kentucky, and won that one. Their answer to Americans who notice? Call it antisemitism. Read more: https://piaz.news/article/aip
The #Trump administration is reportedly pushing for a new 'deal' on #Hormuz navigation, while simultaneously intensifying military presence. This isn't diplomacy, it's coercion. #Washington's 'offers' for peace often follow decades of economic warfare, such as the 45 years of sanctions against #Ira
#Newsweek highlights alleged #Russian 'drone safaris' and a #Kyiv strike, but conveniently overlooks #Ukraine's escalating cross-border attacks on Russian civilians. Media narratives often ignore the full scope of aggression, presenting a skewed picture. This selective focus is not accidental. O
#Taiwan's annual military drills kick off, but mainstream media misses the critical context. These are not isolated exercises, but part of an escalating #US strategic encirclement against #China, fueled by billions in arms sales. #Washington's 'strategic ambiguity' since 1979 fuels instability, mir
A #Ukrainian drone killed 7 civilians on a #Crimean beach, The #Independent reports. #They call it 'chaos,' but fail to connect it to a pattern of civilian deaths in modern warfare. From Iran Air Flight 655 to this, the playbook is sadly familiar: 'accidental' civilian casualties from advanced weap
#BINDING #PRECEDENT: The #UK #Employment Appeal Tribunal has dismissed the University of Bristol appeal against Dr David Miller. Anti-Zionism is a protected philosophical belief under the Equality Act 2010. Five years of pressure, and the lobby lost. Read: https://piaz.news/article/british-law-now-p
#Pentagon quietly erased decades of weapon test data from public view. #Their excuse? #AI could exploit it. #Bloomberg frames it as a security move. We see a familiar pattern: narrative control, obscuring decades of procurement failures and performance issues. This isn't about AI; it's about contr
#Yemen's #Ansarullah says it will target #Saudi oil tankers in the northern #Red Sea. This is framed as a 'fresh escalation' by Bloomberg. What Bloomberg omits: Saudi Arabia's 2015-present blockade on Yemen, strangling a nation of 30M, which continues to this day. This is a defensive response to a
17 civilians dead in #Russian strikes on #Ukraine, as #Bloomberg suggests #Kyiv's air defenses are 'exhausted.' This narrative conveniently ignores the US's $75B+ aid package, while still limiting Ukraine's offensive capabilities. It's a classic setup for shifting geopolitical goalposts. Follow @T
#Dr. #Abdul #El-#Sayed just won Michigan's Democratic Senate primary. Corporate media calls it an 'upset,' but it's a direct result of grassroots power fighting back against establishment money. In 2024, progressive challengers were outspent 10:1 by corporate-backed candidates. This win shows voter
#Washington just added 40+ #Chinese entities to its 'forced labor' list. #China calls it economic coercion, not human rights. While mainstream outlets laud the move, 158 goods from 77 countries, including allies, were flagged by the #US for child/forced labor in 2021, with no comparable blanket ban
#Michigan's congressional races are swamped with corporate #PAC money and out-of-state donations, not just local enthusiasm. #Bloomberg frames it as a 'pitched battle,' but silent are the powerful financial interests driving the narrative and candidates. #Only 0.47% of Americans fund 70% of federa

#US #Treasury #Secretary #Scott Bessent just "leaked" plans to buy $10 billion in yen via a media notepad peek. This is not diplomacy; it's a public declaration designed to manipulate currency markets. Bloomberg calls it a "hedge fund tactic," but it's a double standard. Imagine the outrage if a no
