Once You Learn the Truth About Palestine, You Can't Unlearn It | Macklemore

I started learning about the history of the Israeli occupation, the political ideology of Zionism, and Israeli settlers of the West Bank. I was watching videos coming out of Gaza and crying with friends. I started learning about how colonization, capitalism, and white supremacy are interconnected and essential to each other’s existence, and how they were at the root of the issue. However, for the people of Palestine, that struggle has never ended since 76 years ago.

I was taking it all in and I was silent. I was scared. I was thinking about myself. I didn't want to be labeled anti-Semitic. I didn't want to get canceled and lose my career. I didn't want to lose fans. I didn't want to offend anyone.  
 
But at a certain point, I couldn't believe those voices anymore. My heart had just enough cracks in it that the light of Palestinian resistance struggle and unwavering faith cracked it open. I was experiencing what happens when the internal pain from being silent outweighs the risk of speaking up in moments of injustice.

 
» It is our moral obligation to protest or we are complicit. « 
Macklemore, March 22, 2025.

And once you see it, you can't unsee it. Once you learn the real history, you can unlearn it. Once you get past the media and the White House focusing solely on October 7th, once you begin to look at October 6th, 5th, 4th and the 75 years before of oppression and displacement, that's when the truth opens up. 
 
I thought they were indigenous to the land?

 
And once you look under the hood and realize our government officials are bought and paid for by the Israel Lobby, you can't look at our so-called democracy the same way. Once you understand that our tax dollars are funding a genocide that we are watching in real time in the palm of our hands, I believe it is our moral obligation to adamantly protest the atrocities we are witnessing and funding or we are complicit.

Yemen Is Where Empires Go to Die | Gerry Nolan

The Pentagon’s latest saber-rattling against Yemen’s Ansar Allah (Houthis) reeks of desperation. Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell has vowed a “relentless” bombing campaign until the Yemeni resistance stops targeting US and Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea. “There is a very clear end-state to this operation, and that begins the moment that the Houthis pledge to stop attacking our ships and putting American lives at risk,” Parnell declared. Translation? Washington thought a few airstrikes would be enough to scare the Houthis into submission. Instead, Yemen’s resistance is stronger than ever.

Post-Afghanistan Persistent US Delusions Syndrome (PAPUDS): “Overwhelming Force” against the Houthis?
Washington picked another fight with warriors who never bend their knee. BlackRock loves sustainability.

The Pentagon has been bombing Yemen for over a decade, and yet the Houthis control most of the country and are growing in strength. Trump’s latest airstrikes killed 53 people, but instead of deterring the Houthis, they fired 18 ballistic missiles and drones at the USS Harry Truman and its carrier group. Despite Washington and London’s constant bombardment, the Houthis have only intensified their campaign against Israeli-linked vessels. And now? Trump is trying to drag Iran into the fight, claiming, “Iran will be held responsible, and suffer the consequences, and those consequences will be dire.” Really? The US couldn’t even handle the Taliban. Now it’s threatening Iran?

Who’s really the aggressor? Washington’s “defensive” war narrative is laughable. The Houthis are not attacking US waters; the US is bombing Yemen. This war is not about “freedom of navigation,” it’s about defending Israel’s blockade on Gaza. Houthis have made it clear: their attacks will continue until humanitarian aid reaches Gaza. If the US truly wanted peace, it would end its blank check to Tel Aviv’s genocide. Instead, Trump is doubling down on “MIGA” foreign policy, Make Israel Great Again.

 » Trump is surrounded by Zionist fanatics who believe they’re entitled to a return on their deposit. «
Satanyahu and Ko$her Genocide-MIGA Don keep working hard on the Gaza-Riviera Project:
I$raHell closes Gaza’s last lifeline; Rafah border sealed in a latest act of genocidal siege, March 17, 2025.

And let’s not forget: the same Washington war machine that bombed Yemen for years is now shocked that Yemen fights back. This isn’t 2015 when the US-backed Saudi coalition bombed Yemen into ruins. The Houthis have evolved into a serious military force. They’ve taken down US Reaper drones, fired ballistic missiles deep into Israel, and forced global shipping routes to reroute. They have real combat experience, unlike the Pentagon bureaucrats ordering drone strikes from an office. And they are willing to die for their cause. Can the same be said for US warships patrolling foreign waters for Israel’s interests?

 
Yemen has always been where empires go to die. The Ottomans failed. The British failed. The Saudis failed. Now, the Americans are failing. Trump and the Pentagon can talk about “overwhelming force” all they want. The reality? The more they bomb, the more resistance they create. Washington picked a fight with warriors who have nothing to lose. And history is not on its side.

Do the Jews Control the US Government ? │ The Jerusalem Post

"Do the Jews control the US government?" asks The Jerusalem Post, and just like that, the question they’d rather not have raised lands front and center. Let's not kid ourselves: this isn't about transparency. 
 

It's about controlling the narrative, gaslighting dissenters, and preemptively dismissing critiques of Israeli influence in Washington. The image of the Israeli and American flags fluttering side by side? It's the perfect metaphor for what is the true nature of the 
"special relationship" - one where sovereignty takes a backseat to Tel Aviv's agenda.
 
 
Warp Speed ZioCon MIGDon, January 26, 2025.

The US-Israeli relationship isn’t just cozy, it's symbiotic in a way that leaves America playing servant. From AIPAC's lobby machine to billions in military aid, Washington’s foreign policy isn’t just pro-Israel, it’s Israeli-first and always first. Every war in the Middle East, every veto at the UN, and every blank check to fund apartheid policies in Palestine underscores a system where US interests are sidelined for Tel Aviv's.



This isn't a question of 
"control"—it's a demonstration of how the levers of influence work. Zionism’s grip on Washington is a textbook case of soft power gone unchecked, shaping narratives, wars, and diplomacy in a way that serves one master. 
 

But as the world shifts to multipolarity, cracks in the façade are beginning to show. The Global South isn't buying the story anymore, and even within the US, the grip of the Zionist lobby is being questioned louder than ever. The question isn’t just who controls the US government, it's how much longer they'll be able to get away with it.

Israel Has the Same Western Support as Hitler | President of Venezuela

The president of Venezuela backed the assessment of the Gaza conflict made earlier by his Brazilian counterpart Lula da Silva. The criminal military apparatus of the State of Israel also has the same encouragement, the same funding, and the same support of the collective West like Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany before the World War II, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro stressed. As President Lula da Silva said, the Israeli government is doing the same thing to the Palestinians that Hitler did to the Jewish people.


Powerful family names in the US, Europe and London supported and celebrated Hitler’s arrival to power in 1933. They encouraged him and allowed him to persecute my Jewish ancestors, Maduro stated. The president made public his Jewish ancestry back in early 2010, revealing his grandparents were Sephardic Jews who converted to Catholicism.
The Western elites kept quiet because they were preparing Hitler to launch his military power against the Soviet Union, Maduro explained, stressing that, ultimately, Hitler was a construct, a monster created by the collective West. Modern Israel has turned into the very same thing, Maduro asserted, urging Jewish people who are still true to their roots to end the ongoing massacre of the Palestinians.

Israel's Genocide in Gaza is Like Hitler's Holocaust | President of Brazil

Speaking at an African Union summit in Ethiopia on Sunday, February 18, Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva delivered a scathing condemnation of Israel's genocide in Gaza that compares only to the Holocaust.
 


» What’s happening in the Gaza Strip with the Palestinian people hasn’t happened at any other moment in history. Actually, it has happened: when Hitler decided to kill the Jews. It’s not a war of soldiers against soldiers. It’s a war between a highly prepared army, and women and children.
«
 
By that day Israel’s assault on Gaza had killed at least 28,858 people, mostly women and children, according to Palestinian authorities. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predictably dismissed Lula’s Holocaust parallel as antisemitic, disgraceful and grave, while Foreign Minister Israel Katz announced that Jerusalem will not forget nor forgive the alleged serious anti-Semitic attack and that Lula is a persona non grata in Israel until he takes back his comments. But Lula refused to bow down. On Monday, Brazil expelled the Israeli ambassador and recalled its ambassador from Tel Aviv, thus ending all diplomatic relations with Israel.
 

The irony is that Lula da Silva’s statement only confirms what Israeli politicians have been saying out loud over the past four months, and whose genocidal statements were cited as damning evidence at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) genocide hearing last month. Israeli officials and top generals themselves have openly called for genocide in Gaza, pledging to turn the besieged strip into Auschwitz and Dresden, and even celebrating such atrocities.

By the Grace of God Victory belongs to the Ummah | Brig. Gen. Yahya Sare'e

Statement issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The Almighty says:  »Permission to fight is granted to those who are being fought, because they were wronged. And indeed, Allah is capable of granting them victory .« This is the truth of Allah Almighty. 
 
 
 » God is sufficient for us. « 

In support of the Palestinian people who are facing aggression and siege in the Gaza Strip up to this moment, and as part of the response to the American-British aggression on our country, the naval forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out - with the help of Allah Almighty - two specific military operations in which they targeted two American cargo ships in the Gulf of Aden, the first was “Sea Champion” and the other was “Navis Fortuna”. The targeting operation was carried out with a number of appropriate naval missiles, and the casualties were accurate and direct, thanks to Allah. The total number of armed forces operations during the past twenty-four hours reached four: The first targeted a British cargo ship and the operation resulted in its complete sinking, thanks to Allah. The second operation destroyed an American MQ9 Reaper drone in the airspace of Hodeidah Governorate, while the last two operations in the Gulf of Aden targeted the mentioned two American cargo ships also heading for Israel.
 

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm their full right to take further military measures in the Red and Arab Bahrain in defense of our people, our country, and our
nation, and in confirmation of their position in support of the oppressed Palestinian people, and that their operations in the Red and Arab Bahrain will escalate and will not stop until the aggression stops and the siege on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted.

God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs, the best protector, and the best helper. Long live Yemen, free, dear and independent! Victory belongs to Yemen and to all the free people of the Ummah!

Expelling the US from the United Nations | Shahid Bolsen

America's impunity has to end. It's gone on for way too long. The United States has made a complete, malicious mockery of even the concept of international law, of human rights, of peace, stability and security. It's a country that acts in the world like a serial killer. Everywhere they go, they leave bodies. 
 
  The US sabotaging the UN Security Council once again:
US Ambassador Alternate Representative of the US for Special Political Affairs in the United Nations Robert A. Wood vetoing a United Nations Security Council resolution on ceasefire in Gaza, at UN headquarters in New York on December 8, 2023.

Everything they touch, they break. Why the US should be in the United Nations? It's an insult to the whole planet to have America sitting in the UN, much less sitting on the Security Council. The US is the greatest threat to global security and they dominate the Security Council. It's time for the United Nations to invoke Article 6 and expel the US. We all know that the United States has never treated the UN as if they're just a member. The United Nations, as long as the US is in there, is just like a meeting room where all of the countries in the world go to get their orders from the boss. They even make a mockery of the name United Nations because it doesn't matter how united the nations of the world may be. They've been united for the last 50 years on the issue of Palestine and it didn't matter. The US will overrule them every time. The United Nations is just a platform for American exceptionalism and rejectionism. 
 
United Nations Charter, Article 6:
» A Member of the United Nations which has persistently violated the Principles contained in the present Charter 
may be expelled from the Organization by the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council. «
 
As long as the United Nations allows this and does not invoke Article 6 and expel the United States, every country in the world is just participating in some sort of ritual humiliation and doing nothing but offer tribute to the very country that consistently and insistently does all of the crimes that the UN was created supposedly to prevent from being done. It's like a court where the criminal who's supposed to be on trial sits in the judge's bench. It offends every principle that the United Nations claims to stand for. It's not like they don't have the protocols. They have the protocols and they have the mechanisms to do something about it and to put it to an end. And that's exactly what they need to do and they need to do it now. This is the only way to end this terrible cycle of violence once and for all.

 

 Incomplete statistics showed that from the end of World War II to 2001, among the 248 armed conflicts
that occurred in 153 regions of the world, 201 were initiated by the United States.

The House Negro And The Field Negro | Malcolm X

The ‘house slave’ was subject to the same oppression as the ‘field slave’. Both were without ‘external’ freedom and hence in ‘external’ slavery. But while the ‘field slave’ hated that oppression and slavery, the ‘house slave’ submitted to it, identified with the slave master, and accepted his slavery. He was so brainwashed and ‘internally’ blind that he became an appendage of the slave master. He was always there to serve the slave master, however required, and whenever the slave master needed him. When the slave master was ill, the ‘house slave’ would feel his master’s pain and suffering and would declare to his master: “we sick!” The ‘house slave’ was both ‘internally’ as well as ‘externally’ a slave. He became a part of the system of slavery. The slave master rewarded the ‘house slave’ for his faithful service by ‘buttering’ his bread.
 
» There are two types of slaves, the house negro and the field negro. I am a field negro. «
Malcolm X, 1963

The ‘field slave’ on the other hand was ‘externally’ a slave but ‘internally’ a free man. Because of that ‘internal’ freedom, the ‘field slave’ had the capacity to ‘see’ and to thus recognize the slave master’s oppression and wickedness, and he hated it with all his heart and soul. The ‘field slave’ never submitted to oppression and wickedness but, rather, longed to regain his freedom and to dismantle the system of slavery. And so the ‘field slave’ responded to oppression and slavery in a manner that was anti-systemic. When the slave master’s house was on fire the ‘field slave’ prayed to God to send a strong wind which would burn down the house. 
 
Muslims [in Palestine] who faithfully follow Prophet Muhammad (SAW) are today’s ‘field slaves’! Field slaves who dare to offer armed resistance to Israel’s barbarous oppression in the Holy Land and elsewhere are today demonized as terrorists. Had Malcolm X been still alive today, it is certain that he would have been declared a “terrorist” and “a great security risk”.
