🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 A massive generational realignment is silently breaking Washington’s decades-long stance on Middle East arms funding. Independent journalist Max Blumenthal points out that polling reveals an overwhelming majority of younger Americans across both parties now oppose blank-check military aid to Israel. Blumenthal says that even among American Jews under...

GRAYZONE JOURNO CONFRONTS BLINKEN Grayzone editor Max Blumenthal delivered a sharp critique to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during his final briefing at the State Department, asserting Blinken’s legacy will be one of gen*cide. While security ejected Max Blumenthal (X) from the briefing room, he voiced the anger of many regarding the Biden administration's support for Israel's military actions in Gaza, which Amnesty International has labelled a gen*cide. Reports indicate that Washington has been supplying Israel with a significant arsenal, including more than 10,000 'bunker-buster' bombs that weigh 2,000 pounds and thousands of Hellfire missiles as of June 2024. Blumenthal pointed out to Blinken that 300 journalists have been on the 'receiving end of [his] bombs.' He also confronted Blinken about his relatives’ roles as Israeli lobbyists, implying Blinken is compromised. The Grayzone editor encapsulated his criticism of US policy, suggesting that Washington has yielded to the demands of Tel Aviv, thereby implicating itself in the ongoing onslaught that had k*lled as many as 186,000 Palestinians as of early July, per the Lancet medical journal. Blumenthal’s ejection came after security hauled away independent journalist Sam Husseini (Sam Husseini on X), the communications director at the US-based Institute for Public Accuracy (accuracy.org on X), who challenged Blinken.

Tim Dillon: “Does your source—who’s a highly-placed Trump confidant—believe there’s any potential that forces outside of this gunman were responsible for Charlie Kirk’s assassination?” Max Blumenthal: “Yes.” “They don’t accept the official story.” Dillon: “A highly-placed person in the Trump inner circle doesn’t believe the official story of Charlie's murder?” Blumenthal: “No one does, but the phrase I remember hearing is, ‘it feels like there’s more at play here.’” “That’s not the only person with more power than me in Washington that I’m hearing that from.” Dillon: “So you’re hearing from multiple people that are connected and tapped in, that they believe that there’s more at play or more to the story than simply one radicalized young man?” Blumenthal: “Subsequent to publishing this story from another source who I would describe as an Administration insider, that corroborated the account in this story.” “First, that, Charlie Kirk was actively and aggressively personally lobbying Trump against bombing Iran in June.” “Two, that right now the FBI is not being forthcoming and there’s a lot of frustration with the FBI not sharing information.” Dillon: “That’s pretty shocking.” Blumenthal: “There was this pre-fabricated narrative on the right that the killer was a leftist or a Muslim.” “They clearly wanted that.” “Now, people on the left are saying he was a groyper.” “I don’t know what will be the case, but the reason I wrote this story was because I was able to get this background about Charlie Kirk and … what was coloring his final days, and the kind of pressure he was under—which tells a larger story about Israeli influence in the US.” “I didn’t report this story to prove that Israel has a direct role in his assassination.” “But there is a real reason why many people who are not able to talk to people with any proximity to power believe that is the case, and it’s because of the way Israel’s conducting itself around the globe.” Tim Dillon Max Blumenthal

United States 🇺🇸 of Israel 🇮🇱 $3 TRILLION UNJUSTIFIABLE US 🇺🇸 AID to Israel 🇮🇱 14 years ago, nothing has changed. “With them. I have talked to them.” Tempers flared at the prestigious National Press Club in Washington, DC. You have gone there as a radical left to hate Jews. And in order to don't you stick things on the right face, a pro Israeli 🇮🇱 advocate, knocked a camera out of the hands of Alison Weir, president of the Council for the National Interest Foundation. The group just finished their press conference on what they call UNJUSTIFIABLE US 🇺🇸 AID to Israel 🇮🇱. The two sides met when the press club scheduled a pro-Israeli 🇮🇱 news conference to follow held in the same room. The altercation illustrates heightened tensions on differing views regarding america's 🇺🇸relationship with Israel 🇮🇱. The Council for the National Interest Foundation wants Americans 🇺🇸 to know how much of their tax dollars are going to Israel 🇮🇱: $3 TRILLION. That's including a massive amount of direct money to Israel 🇮🇱, then a lot of hidden costs. C-N-I-F alleges israel 🇮🇱 receive so much Aid and special treatment because the U.S. 🇺🇸 Congress is controlled by a PAC America's pro-Israelis 🇮🇱. The lobby Executive director Philip Doarty, says Israel 🇮🇱 spends a lot of money on US elections: “There are many Israeli PACs, and they do give a lot of money very selectively to congressmen 🇺🇸that they want to support. Any members of Congress fear if they don't always side with Israel 🇮🇱, that they will face RETALIATION in their own REELECTION campaigns. If a congressman crosses the Israel 🇮🇱 lobby by voting against aid for Israel 🇮🇱 or voting against some some legislation Israel 🇮🇱 favors, they very often will find that the next time they're running for office, there will be a candidate put up against them who is very well funded.” Deraldi is a former CIA counterterrorism expert. He questions why America 🇺🇸 gives aid to Israel 🇮🇱: “When Israel 🇮🇱 conducts more ESPIONAGE, for profit against the US than any other US, friendly country, they steal military technology. They steal information that is useful for telecommunications.” Retired Lieutenant Colonel Karen Catowski works at the Pentagon and says Israel 🇮🇱 receives preferential treatment. We do not question what the Israelis want. Catowsky believes America 🇺🇸 is beginning to take more interest in US 🇺🇸 foreign policy in the MIDDLE EAST, in large part due to tough economic times. More and more Americans 🇺🇸 want to know where they're hard, earned tax dollars are going, and why? Rhonda Pence Press, TV, washington.

The ongoing attacks in the Middle East are deadly serious. The Israeli state has abandoned even the pretence of the so-called ceasefire with the Iranian state. We need mass movements to end ALL military aid to Israel, and we need leaders who will unambiguously fight for this demand. I am an independent revolutionary socialist running for Congress. I have two Democratic Party opponents in this race. One is 29-year incumbent Democrat Adam Smith, who has sent tens of billions of dollars for the genocide in Gaza. Smith is currently pushing for over a TRILLION NEW dollars for Trump’s wars. His new bill would ALSO merge the U.S. and Israeli militaries. The second Democrat in this race, Melissa Chaudhry, does not call for an end to military aid to Israel. The words Israel, Gaza, Palestine, and occupation DO NOT EVEN APPEAR on her website. She recently said to a Democratic Party audience that she will be a “team player.” This is how the Democratic Party operates: they give a choice between an openly-pro imperialist candidate, and a candidate who is running an establishment-friendly campaign and telling us she will be a “team player” with the rest of the Democratic Party. If the Democratic Party wants to stop Trump’s war on Iran, all they need to do is announce that they are fighting for a bill to cut off military aid to Israel and rally hundreds of thousands of ordinary people to support it. This would be HUGELY popular right now. But not only are Democrats not willing to do that, a majority of them, including Adam Smith, voted in December to give over $906 billion dollars for Trump’s wars. The Democratic and Republican parties both represent the war profiteering billionaire class. And individual politicians build their careers by trying not to rock the boat. I am not running to build my career. I am running because we need an antiwar fighter in Congress. We don’t need any more status quo politicians. We need someone who will DISRUPT business as usual. I am fighting for an end to all military aid to Israel, to end all weapons and tech for genocide and imperialist war, and slash the trillion-dollar war budget to fund housing and social services instead. #socialist #israel #iran

The IDF has Launched a Preemptive Strike Against Iran's Nuclear Program, Israeli military spokesperson Effie Defrin: For years, the Iranian regime has been waging a direct and indirect campaign of terror against the State of Israel, by funding and directing terrorist activities via its proxies across the Middle East, while advancing toward obtaining a nuclear weapon. The Iranian regime is at the head of the axis responsible for all terrorist attacks against the State of Israel since the beginning of the "Swords of Iron" War, including by arming and funding the Hamas terror organization which was responsible for the October 7th Massacre. During the "Swords of Iron" War, Iran even directly attacked Israel twice, firing hundreds of missiles toward the State of Israel. The Iranian regime has proclaimed that its objective is to destroy the State of Israel. Senior officials in the Iranian regime have publicly declared their intent to destroy Israel, and are operating to achieve this together with their proxies in the Middle East. Today, Iran is closer than ever to obtaining a nuclear weapon. Weapons of mass destruction in the hands of the Iranian regime are an existential threat to the State of Israel and a significant threat to the wider world. The State of Israel will not allow a regime whose objective is to destroy the State of Israel to obtain weapons of mass destruction. The IDF has conducted a process of preparations for a campaign on the frontline and on the home front. The resilience of Israel's citizens will be an important factor of the campaign. The IDF is ready to continue to act as required. The State of Israel has the obligation to act in defense of its citizens and will continue to do so everywhere it is required to do so, as we have done in the past.

🚨🇺🇸 INTERVIEW: “DENY PALESTINE, DESTABILIZE THE REGION. U.S-ISRAEL POLICY IS CREATING ENDLESS WAR" “I can’t be optimistic in the Middle East, because the fundamental source of Middle East strife is only getting worse, and that is denial of Palestinian rights and their minimal right to self-determination. That’s the source of all conflict. There’s been a long-standing international consensus going back many decades, accepted by all the major Palestinian factions, including Hamas, that Palestinians have the right to an independent state of their own… and Israel and the U.S. have moved alone in rejecting that. It was also a major driver of the conflict in Syria… It was through Syria that Iran was able to arm Hezbollah when they resisted Israel in the 2006 war, a way to strengthen Israel. That’s why I think we had that dirty war in Syria for so many years. As long as the new Syrian government doesn't stand up to Israel and continues to play the role of cutting off Hezbollah and Iran, the U.S. and Israel will be more than happy with it, even though Israel is still voicing some objections to the new government. What Israelis are trying to do is simply take out, as it did in Syria, another deterrent to its regional hegemony. So long as Palestinian’s self-determination is being denied, you’re going to have conflict in the region, you're going to have resistance, and as long as there is resistance, Israel is going to want to try and wipe it out. As long as you have Israel and the U.S. rejecting the whole global consensus that Palestinians have the right to self-determination, you're going to have conflict, which means resistance, which means you’re going to have continued Israeli aggression on those who resist.” Aaron Maté, Journalist & "Pushback" host for The Grayzone

Left: Rachel Reeves: “I am a Zionist” at Labour Friends of Israel annual lunch. Right: Israel announces $843 million in new West Bank settlements and #C4News report that Israel is blocking a 3 month supply of 150 trucks of aid to Gaza Labour may not have an antisemitism problem, but it does have a blind spot when it comes to holding Israel accountable for international law and humanitarian issues - Ignoring illegal settlements, the destruction in Gaza, and the prevention of aid is a real political problem Antisemitism and Islamophobia are both horrific and must be challenged. Our society thrives when people of all faiths support each other and stand against abuse; that includes protecting our British Jewish and Muslim populations from harm However, whether a one-state or two-state solution leads to lasting peace, it is difficult to see it being achieved under a Labour government that consistently whitewashes Israel’s actions in Gaza while their friends in Israel restrict humanitarian aid Peace in the Middle East requires courage, accountability, and compromise from all parties. It means halting illegal settlement expansion, allowing humanitarian aid to reach civilians, and supporting a political process that respects the rights of both Palestinians and Israelis So many Labour MPs are members of Labour Friends of Israel, but far fewer join Labour Friends of Palestine. If they can’t be bothered to stand publicly for both Palestinian and Israeli lives, how can they expect to set an example of fairness, humanity, and equal concern? True leadership means defending the rights and safety of all civilians, not just those on one side That's Labour's problem today

🇺🇸🇻🇪 "THE CIA IS THE LARGEST CREATOR OF INTERNATIONAL DRUG SYNDICATES" Max Blumenthal just explained that the U.S. doesn't just target foreign governments with pretexts of fighting wars on drugs. The CIA facilitates the operations of drug cartels that can be leveraged as propaganda targets for U.S. wars, or ignored when convenient. "We're seeing key U.S. allies be implicated in the drug trade to this day. What's it called? The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, which has been funded by the State Department, is an instrument of U.S. soft power. It's an investigative journalist outlet, and has a new report out about the Noboa family's ties to the Balkan mafia. The Noboa family controls Ecuador today. Daniel Noboa, he's the president, and his family owns Noboa Shipping Company. He's the director of the shipping company. The shipping company keeps getting rung up for sending bananas through the Noboa family's Bonita Fruit Company, packed with cocaine, to Europe through routes that are overseen by the Balkan mafia. And Ecuador is also the largest drug export center to the United States, according to the United Nations Office of Drugs and Crime. Meanwhile, Venezuela is only responsible for like 5% of drug transit. But Kristi Noem, the DHS secretary, was just in Ecuador to meet with Daniel Noboa and to campaign for a referendum to bring U.S. military bases back to Ecuador. It's really not about drugs; it's about geostrategic interests." Max Blumenthal

Hamas’s Desired End State & Two-State Solution Hamas officials told Drop Site’s Jeremy Scahill that the group’s preferred long-term vision is a single democratic state across all of historic Palestine—a vision they describe as a rejection of ethno-supremacy, not a call for expulsion or exclusion. It stands in stark contrast to Israel’s “explicitly genocidal end state,” which Jeremy described as a plan where “Palestinians must either bend the knee and live as indentured servants under a religious supremacist regime, or be forced off their land, or be dead.” As Jeremy put it, summarizing how Hamas officials framed their vision: “We’re not telling Jewish people that they need to leave. We’re not trying to create a religious supremacist ethnostate. We want democracy. We want democracy from the river to the sea. That’s the position.” In his meetings with senior Hamas officials—including Osama Hamdan—Jeremy also raised the question of a two-state solution. He said he expected Hamas to reject it outright, given decades of displacement, land theft, and Israel’s long record of undermining Palestinian statehood. But Hamdan told him Hamas would not oppose a two-state deal based on the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, if it reflected the will of the Palestinian people and came with international guarantees of full sovereignty and equal rights. Jeremy noted that while many Palestinians now view Israel as having created a single apartheid regime, Hamas’s position is that “if Palestinians support a two-state framework, we will not stand in the way.” The discussion took place on Drop Site’s livestream with journalists Sharif Abdel Kouddous and Murtaza Hussain.

Today my Trajectory episode with Prof Max Max Tegmark is live. This was recorded live during the AI Action Summit in Paris. 2 big takeaways, among many: 1. Military leadership seeing AGI as a threat may increase (not decrease) an arms race. 2. Wishing for posthuman futures TOO soon = ridiculous. Lets just lay out a few of these points here: 1. The tipping point for coordination / military leadership. Max talks about how, when the militaries in the US and China see AGI itself as a risk to both of them. He has faith that international coordination is possible, and that a combination of (a) raising awareness (like with the frameworks he shares in this episode) and (b) massive, scary growth in AGI capabilities could very well lead to an attractor state of coordination over conflict. He believes that it's important to make "teh control problem" well known ahead of time, so that if/when an AGI disaster happens, it won't be seen as an attack from the enemy (which would accelerate an arms race), but it would be seen as a shared danger for both nations. He's also no blind optimist. He's very clear that there may not be easy odds for international coordination, but even if the odds are slim - its vastly better than having a million Unworthy Successor AGIs getting hurled into the world at once. 2. Posthuman futures - but only when we get them right. Max's Life 3.0 is a pretty damn inspiring long-term look at AGI futures (albeit through an anthropocentric lens). He says in this interview that there might be a long term future (he says 1MM years, which seems kind of hyperbolic and wholly unrealistic, but alas) where humans may not even want to control AGIs and posthuman life should flourish. But he rightly points out that: a) We have no idea what we're even building now, so hurling posthuman life into the world is ridiculous, and b) We should focus on understanding the tech and obtaining global coordination and human benefits as a near-term step While my timelines for when a posthuman transition will happen are vastly more near-term than Max's, the argument AGAINST "rushing to posthumanism" is one I wholly agree with. ... What do you think of Max's takes? Anything else I should have asked him? (Links in post below)
