Europe was Hottest Ever Recorded last Year, and is Heating up Faster than any other Continent

زندانی افکار
یکی بود یکی نبود، غیر از خدا هیچ کس نبود. در
زمانهای پیشین، و در شهر کوچکی سالها بود که مردم شهر از خشکسالی رنج میبردند، و زندگی
مردم شهر به دلیل وجود این خشکسالی بسیار دشوار شده بود. چون روزگار مردم این شهر از کشاورزی میگذشت، بدون
آب هیچ کار کشاورزی نمیتوانستند بکنند، چرا که هیچ دریائی، دریاچهای، جویباری در
این شهر نبود و دیگر چاههای شهر هم خشک شده بودند. نخست آذوقههائی را که در انبارهای
شهر باقی مانده بود بین مردم تقسیم کردند، و سپس درختها را بریدند و تقسیم کردند
و بعد هرچه گیاه بود، حتّی علفها را نیز تقسیم کردند. دیگر هیچ آذوقهای در شهر پیدا
نمیشد، چرا که مردم تمام آذوقهٔ شهر را خورده بودند و هر چه حیوان بود کشته بودند،
و حتّی سگ و گربههای این شهر هم نسلشان را برانداخته بودند.ا

Al-Sharqiya Cemetery, near Gaza City, is the largest cemetery in Gaza. It has been inaccessible since the genocide began and many fear it has been bulldozed and destroyed, along with the remains of our loved ones.

Iran Is Not Building a Nuclear Bomb: A Fact Sheet

“You know, it’s not a complicated formula,” U.S. President Donald Trump said. “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. That’s all there is.” So, negotiations should be successful because Iran neither has, nor are they pursuing, a nuclear weapon.

What we are witnessing is not just economic decline—it is a calculated transfer of power, wealth, and dignity from the people who built this country to the corporate and political class who believe they own it.

Has Israel turned Gaza into a 21st Century Concentration Camp?
April 11, 2025
Dr. Mustafa Fetouri
The basic definition of “concentration camp” is simple: a large place where a large group of people, usually civilians, are imprisoned without due process. There are various reasons as to why they are kept in confinement, including their ethnicity, religion or because they oppose the authorities ordering their imprisonment.

As Israel escalates strikes in Lebanon, residents say it ‘will not keep us from the path of resistance’
April 11, 2025
Roqayah Chamseddine
The failure of the Lebanese government to protect against Israeli attacks is leading Lebanon down two roads: either Hezbollah will re-enter the war in defense of the Lebanese people, or the government will prevail and content itself to sit back.

The Ecology of Occupation: Palestine’s Struggle for Land and Life
April 10, 2025
Michael Morrill
In the fractured and scarred landscapes of Palestine, where the earth’s skin is etched with memories of violence, dispossession, and resistance, there lies an unspoken tragedy. An ecological tragedy. Beyond the suffocating walls of the occupation, beneath the rubble of homes and the twisting olive trees, there is a landscape slowly being strangled, not only by military might but by the relentless, invisible hand of environmental degradation. This is a tale not just of loss—of life and liberty—but of a land under siege, of natural resources turned into tools of war and power.

Israel’s innocent oopsie-poopsie medical massacre mistake
The Israeli military has changed its story
about why its forces killed 15 medical workers and then buried them and
their vehicles to hide the evidence. After their initial claim that the
medical vehicles were approaching “suspiciously” without their
emergency lights on was disproven by video evidence, they are now
calling the whole thing a big mistake.
