Report: Israel is manipulating AI platforms into blaming Palestinians, eg, for killing Hind Rajab.Israel has created websites dedicated to manipulating AI platforms such as Claude & ChatGPT.When users seek information, eg, on the murder of Hind, the manipulated chatbots produce “alternative explanations” (eg, that Hind could have been killed by Palestinian crossfire) alongside verified reporting.https://thegrayzone.com/2026/04/28/israeli-foreign-influence-palestinians-hind-rajab/ #USPol #EUPol #palestine #gazaGenocide #news #AIHasbara #HindRajab .

Interview: Trump is still “looking for a Silver Bullet” instead of negotiating seriouslyThe US is denying Iranian reports that 2 missiles struck a US vessel."Both sides are making maximalist demands, so a diplomatic solution is unlikely."As long as Trump listens to the forces that sold him this (backfired) blockade, "we’re not going to see a diplomatic breakthrough."~Trita Parsihttps://www.democracynow.org/2026/5/4/strait_of_hormuz_trita_parsi #USPol #EUPol #IranWar #news #TrumpMegalomania #Hormuz .

@DrALJONES Given the way the GOP folded and got in line behind everything he's done, all of em. Given the way 1/3 to 1/2 of Dems get along with voting to fund ICE and Israeli genocide youve got a pretty good answer there too.

Report: "We need technical experts negotiating with Iran, not real estate dealers.""The 2015 [Obama] deal was negotiated by technical experts & physicists who understood how nuclear weapons are made. Under [that] agreement, Iran could not build a bomb."“Under what circumstances would you put a couple of real estate dealers & nepo babies in charge of these negotiations?”~Bill Foster, PhD physics, Harvardhttps://aje.news/zo0udq?update=4500967 #USPol #EUPol #IranWar #news #IranNuclearDeal .

@Walrus Yes, agree. However, afaik, the previous charge was "burglary". This time it's "criminal damage". There's a pile of different charges.

"The pope has shown the world how to stand up to Trump""Clearly, Leo rejects appeasement as an antidote to coercion & hate":Jesus "does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war... 'Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: Your hands are full of blood.’”Unlike sychophantic leaders who stroked Trump’s ego, Leo resisted.Like every bully, Trump takes keen pleasure in satisfying his narcissistic hunger for dominance.https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/4/16/the-pope-has-shown-the-world-how-to-stand-up-to-trump#USPol #IranWar #EUPol #Pope .
