If you haven’t seen it, this footage from @apnews.com is incredibly important.

The intent here seems unmistakable, in two ways: (1) just read the genocide convention, here it **absolutely** is, and (2) this level of infrastructural destruction is, no question, meant as pre-development demolition.

This was always the plan- that's why Biden was sabotaged so Trump got the "deal." Israel needed more time for demo.

Y'all hollered about Kamala Harris when Trump told you he was going to make this shit a parking lot. Now you still yell at HER. But you got no smoke for the person who did this.

Getting back Terry and Noah will help, but I fear if the @wshcommanders.bsky.social can't fix their defense and at least raise their level to bad then there's not much hope for this season.
