Who deployed the National Guard to DC and other cities that neither need or want them? Who put them in harms way? Who created death squads in Afghanistan which transformed this man into a killer in our streets?

We created the "monster" who shot 2 Natl Guard soldiers in DC. WE R the monsters who created him. Who taught him by our example 2 murder children in the guise of fighting the Taliban. We created his PTSD. WE made him a killer. The CIA did this in our names

If Adams agrees to stop being one of the most corrupt NYC mayors in a generation
The current mayor of New York City, who isn't Jewish, tells the forthcoming mayor of New York City that in order to prove he is not an antisemite he should commit to being part of the Israel Day parade in May 2026.

What an utter mess X's "about this account" feature has become. Falsely locating users in places they've never been. And exploited by Zionists to cast doubt on authenticity of Palestinian accounts.

Donate to Finishing a documentary about the JDL assassination of Palestinian activist Alex Odeh and Israel's refusal to extradite his Zionist terrorist killers.
Thank you for donating to Finishing a documentary about Alex Odeh
<div>On the morning of October 11, 1985, a Palestinian American activist named Alex Odeh opened his office door in Orange County, CA for the last time. A trip-wire bomb exploded. He died hours later in a nearby hospital. </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>His premature death left his widow Norma, a recent immigrant and stay-at-home mother, to raise their three young daughters alone. Odeh’s murder shook the local Arab American community. He was a civic leader, teacher, activist and poet, revered locally. Yet, his story is largely forgotten. His murder has gone unsolved. </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>For the last several years, we, William Youmans and Jason Osder, have been making a documentary tentatively called ‘Who Killed Alex Odeh?’ A mix of rich archival and present-day footage, the film looks at Alex’s life as a Palestinian in exile, follows his family as it seeks justice decades later and covers a freelance reporter who uncovers new clues about the suspects, three US-born Israeli settlers. </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>We completed production and raised grant money to cover most of the editing expenses. This GoFundMe helped us complete editing, but we need another $30k for post-production after having raised more than $50k from several other sources. This appeal is necessary to get us to the finish line.  </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>We seek to complete editing in time for submission to late 2025 and early 2026 film festivals. All funds raised would go to our post-production expenses, sound mixing, graphics, color correction, legal expenses, and possibly licensing footage. </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>Alex's story must be told now. Your help will ensure the film goes into wide distribution by 2026, though we hope to premiere this fall, <span>the 40th anniversary of Alex's murder. For more information about the film, </span><a href="https://smpa.gwu.edu/documentary-film-who-killed-alex-odeh" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">see this webpage</a><span>.</span> </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>Contact <a href="https://smpa.gwu.edu/william-youmans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">William Youmans</a> for more information. </div> <div><br /> </div><img alt="74351707_1690484004719803_r.jpg" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/74351707_1690484004719803_r.jpg" width="100%" /> <div><br /> </div>

A Palestinian boy and his sister waited in the early morning hours for their school bus. An IDF jeep passing by opened its door and fired a tear gas canister directly into his face from 15 feet. The impact tore his eye from its socket, and fractured his skull.

Looks like I'll be spending more time over here, now that Elon has locked my main account, for reasons known only to the Great and Powerful Oz.
November 12, 2025 at 10:07 PM
My main Twitter account has been locked after I noted it had been throttled for posting links to external media (Musk has penalized such accts). Another reason may be my tweets savaging him. Anyway, my alternate account is @richards105. If you have an acct there pls follow me.

Katie Wilson will be Seattle's next mayor, She defeated a pro-police pro-developer incumbent who had $2-million in PAC cash to throw at her. It didn't work. Zohran, move over. Make room for another progressive mayor.

Elon doesn't want users to post links to external media. He not only throttles such accounts literally, but figuratively as well: if journalists & activists are punished for promoting news & information, he's destroying their visibility & presence on the platform. Which is part of the plan I suppose
